Apple's New USB

Description

Apple's newest MacBook Pro laptops got rid of the separate ports for charging and accessories, and instead whittled it down to two USB-C ports. USB-C is hyped as the replacement for regular-old USB, also known as USB Type-A. Business Insider reports it can handle charging, plugging in external monitors, and any and all other kinds of accessories from a single cable. It's neat! But also, it means customers have to buy pricey, annoying dongles if you want to plug in any of the existing flash drives, mice, keyboard, or other gadgetry they already own.

  • Apple Drops USB-C Dongle And Accessory Prices

    With the iPhone 7, Apple removed the headphone jack, much to the chagrin of audiophiles. The newly announced MacBook Pro has a whopping six USB Type-C ports. That’s great! However, those are all the ports it has. USB Type-C is a definite improvement because the plug is reversible, it’s faster, delivers more power, and can output almost any kind of signal. Right now, it means you’ll need a lot of adapters. The outcry was swift after the new MacBook went on sale. Apple was making a killing on all those dongles, but it has now relented and lowered the prices. Some of Apple’s first-party adapters have seen price drops as high as 50%. In addition to the drop in dongle cost, Apple is lower prices on all USB Type-C and Thunderbolt peripherals by 25% through the end of the year.
