But will that be better or worse than USB 3.3 gen 2 extra super speed?

[–] 2xar@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Both, of course.

Will USB 3 get an update now USB4 is out?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Eh, USB4 is basically what USB 3.3 would've been, but with fresh branding. I expect it to have the same naming issues after a few updates...

Wasn't USB4 based on Thunderbolt 3?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Sort of? It borrows a lot of the high speed protocol bits from Thunderbolt 3, but I think it does DP a little differently (at least it supports different DP standards than TB3). So it's closely related, but not necessarily the same thing.
