USB charging, while better than previous proprietary systems, still has flaws, especially with some gadgets lacking proper USB-C support. A portable thermal label printer demonstrates this issue, as it features a USB-C port but omits the necessary components for compliant charging protocols, resulting in failure to charge. Unlike USB-C, USB-A delivers power without negotiation, leading to frustration. Devices supplied with USB-A to USB-A cables typically indicate a lack of compliance with USB-C standards, further complicating user experience with charging.
Some gadgets, like a portable thermal label printer, have USB-C ports but lack the required hardware to support USB-C charging protocols, leading to charging issues.
Devices with USB-C ports may not charge because manufacturers often omit basic components to save costs. This results in no power delivery without negotiation.
USB-A provides a default 5V power supply without negotiation, unlike USB-C, which requires devices to negotiate power needs before delivery.
Devices that include USB-A to USB-A cables often signify limitations in their charging capabilities, highlighting the issue of non-compliance with USB-C standards.
