USB 4.0 is exciting.

That being said, I'm a slightly boring person.

USB4 = Thunderbolt 3

This is a good deal. I have a couple similar 100w cables from mono price that I paid far more for. They work great but they’re thick cables with little flex. I recommend sticking to 60w cables unless you really need the wattage.

The USB 3.0 standard was released 11 years ago. Even 3.1 is 8 years old now.

Yet OEMs are still giving people 2.x cables and ports on plenty of devices to this day!

This is especially true for accessories like headphones and stuff that come with trash cables for charging that specific thing that doesn't benefit from higher speed cables. Just makes it confusing to keep track of the cables though.

I doubt USB4 cable would be of much use for most people.
A lot of us is still using USB 2 port in computer.

If I buy something that is not in deep discounted, my father will punish me; everyone will laugh at me. I will be the strange kid who doesn't fit in.

Those passive ones are, yes. Nonetheless, length isn't the only drawback.

My laptop has Thunderbolt 4, so USB5?

I was trying to look for a front USB 3 bay, but have no luck. Guys from canada computer told me everyone just use a USB3 hub.
But I want to connect to the jumpers on the mother board and have it in the front. I want to continue to use my 15 years old chassis which is way better than the paper metal in the new case.

Have anyone tried it with a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port?

The OEM cable for my S20 is strangely slow. Figured this maybe a good replacement. Thank you
