Laptops with USB C 3.2 gen2x2
USB C 3.2 gen2x2
— USB C is a universal connector created relatively recently and designed for use in desktop and laptop computers. It is slightly larger than microUSB, has a convenient double-sided design (no matter which side the plug is connected to), and also allows for increased power supply and a number of special functions. In addition, the same connector is standardly used in the Thunderbolt v3 interface, and technically can be used for other interfaces; so in some laptops USB C has a combined purpose - see “Alternate Mode” for more details. And in some laptops (mostly the most compact ones), USB C can also charge the device’s own battery.As for the USB C 3.2 gen2x2 version specifically, it allows you to achieve a connection speed of 20 Gbps - that is, twice as fast as USB C 3.2 gen2, hence the name. It is also worth noting that connection according to the 3.2 gen2x2 standard is implemented only through USB C connectors and is not used in ports of earlier standards. In laptops, such ports are still rare, and their number usually does not exceed 1 - this is due to the fact that slower (and less expensive) varieties of USB C are usually sufficient for most peripheral devices.
