This soon-to-be policy will affect a wide range of electronic devices from phones to keyboards.
While this is often portrayed as big news for Apple, it affects far more device makers at every level of the market. Although this law has been in the works for a while, it has had to clear several stages to get to this vote and there are still a few more to go. But given the level of support it has among EU member states and thereached this summer, it seems like the final steps to get it over the finish line will be a formality.
The list of devices affected is long. It includes mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, headphones, headsets, earbuds, portable speakers, handheld video game consoles, e-readers, keyboards, mice, portable navigation systems, and more. There’s one other caveat: this only applies to devices “operating with a power delivery of up to 100 Watts.” More powerful electronics like toasters, ovens, washing machines, and the like aren’t going to have to add a USB-C port any time soon.or without
