Podcast: Thunderbolt 4, Snapdragon 865 Plus and Facebook's latest mess
This week on the Engadget Podcast, we chat about Intel's Thunderbolt 4 standard, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 Plus chips for gaming devices and Facebook's latest series of fails.
USB4 devices are clear to roll out next year
The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) announced today that the organization has finalized the technical specifications for USB4. These specs will be making their way to designers, engineers and manufacturers shortly, meaning we can expect the first USB4 products to hit shelves some time in 2020. The highlight of the new standard is its dual-lane 40Gbps speed, matching Thunderbolt 3's transfer rate and doubling that of USB 3.2's.
