usb 3.1 type c speed - General Questions and Answers

pretty sure everyone here knows usb 3.1 is faster than usb 2.0. While looking for the next phone to upgrade to, I've noticed some phones such as the oneplus 5 or huawei p10 are using usb 2.0 type c connection while the galaxy s8 or lg g6 are using usb 3.1 type c connection. is the 2.0 type has the same transfer speed when connected to a computer?
misread the spec. it is describing the cable connection, from usb 2.0 to type c 1.0 or usb 3.1 to type c 1.0. Another question is, has anyone ever tried connecting your phone with a type c to type c cable? how long does it take to transfer files to your computer?

USB C data transfer speeds

Hello,
USB C is meant to be USB 3 speeds for data transfer etc ?
However just checking the official specs and its says USB 2.
Does this phone have improved transfer speeds over ordinary USB 2 or is it the same as.
EDIT: - Tested transfer speeds
Read speeds at 28/30Mbs
Write speed at 37.5Mbs
Many Thanks
As far as i know, the phone is only equipped with USB 2.0
Will Have to do speed tests later on.
Shame they've got a new port but not upgraded to USB 3/3.1 if so
Right so I can read via a USB 3 port to the phone via USB C at 30/28Mbs and write at 37Mbs
Seriously?
Sony always manage to whack in under par hardware for these 3: USB, sdcard reader and speakers.
Since the z1 actually.
However this being there must premium offering I'd have hoped they actually changed this and inserted premium hardware. Shame on all the counts.
Yeah I'm not pleased with it at all.
So after a year, I managed to grab a USB Type C to C (thunderbolt 3) cable and test with a board with thunderbolt 3 port.
The speed for transferring a 1.XGB .mkv file via MTP is still 30-40Mbs... as expected.
Interesting thing is that flashmode does not work, but fastboot and MTP mode still works with USB-C to C cable...
Flash mode does work with USB 3.1 Type A to C port/cable on the same board.
Anyone else also have see something like this? Or maybe its just cable/board issue.

USB C Stick

I was looking for a usb c dual to use simply with the pixel c and my computer instead of attach the hub adapter.

Someone who has tried this usb or just has a suggestion about them?

OTG adaptor?

Hi all,
Can anyone recommend a USB OTG cable? I would prefer one that will accept a USB Type A peripheral, but still connect to the phone with Type C (not requiring an adaptor). Does such a cable exist?
Yes. Googling type c otg gives you this as the first result. Note that using a micro usb otg cable with a micro→type c adapter doesn't work for some reason, or at least it didn't for me.
I've bought this: https://www.amazon.es/gp/aw/d/B01LX...er+USB+otg&dpPl=1&dpID=41ec3rrdfuL&ref=plSrch and it works quite good as OTG adapter. Take a look.

No. There should be an adapter that babe with your s8+ that turns the USB standard end of your s8+ charging cable into a USB type c connector. I think it requires the use of the stock cable to work.
Although I have not tried it the way you suggested yet.

I tried using that software when I came from my Nexus 6p and went to a note 7, it didn't work for me. They may have updated it, but it said the Nexus phones aren't compatable
Weird. I used a regular USB C cable to connect my Pixel XL to my S8+ and it worked fine. Same when I switched from the Nexus 6P to the Pixel XL.

Question Slow charging using usb a to usb c cable on laptop usb 3.0 port

Most USB A cables do not support Power Delivery (PD). You need a type C to C cable.
Just like @TheMystic said, not all USB-A to C supports PD. Furthermore, not all USB-C to C supports PD.
