Your next USB cable could deliver much faster speeds and greater performance following the announcement of next-generation specifications.

USB 4 version 2.0 is set to bring twice the speed of data performance over current USB Type-C cables and connectors used by many of us today, the body behind the technology has revealed.

The new technology, set to launch later in 2022, should deliver greatly improved connectivity and data transfer speeds - and what's more, you may not even need to splash out on new cables to enjoy the increase in performance.
