The USB3.0 specification is similar to USB2.0, but with many improvements and an alternative implementation. Earlier USB concepts such as endpoints and the four transfer types (bulk, control, isochronous and interrupt) are preserved but the protocol and electrical interface are different. The specification defines a physically separate channel to carry USB3.0 traffic. The changes in this specification make improvements in the following areas: Nice Micro-USB adapter Apple, now sell it everywhere", Giga om, 5 October 2011, archived from the original on 26 August 2012 The following 10 biggest mobile phone companies have signed the MoU: Apple, LG, Motorola, NEC, Nokia, Qualcomm, Research In Motion, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Texas Instruments (press release), Europa, archived from the original on July 4, 2009USB 3.0 ports may implement other USB specifications for increased power, including the USB Battery Charging Specification for up to 1.5A or 7.5W, or, in the case of USB 3.1, the USB Power Delivery Specification for charging the host device up to 100W.

On 25 July 2017, a press release from the USB3.0 Promoter Group detailed a pending update to the USB Type-C specification, defining the doubling of bandwidth for existing USB-C cables. Under the USB 3.2 specification, released 22 September 2017, [10] existing SuperSpeed certified USB-C3.1 Gen 1 cables will be able to operate at 10Gbit/s (up from 5Gbit/s), and SuperSpeed+ certified USB-C3.1 Gen 2 cables will be able to operate at 20Gbit/s (up from 10Gbit/s). The increase in bandwidth is a result of multi-lane operation over existing wires that were intended for flip-flop capabilities of the USB-C connector. [63] [64] Nilsson, Lars-Göran (11 August 2010).

In July 2012, the USB Promoters Group announced the finalization of the USB Power Delivery ( USB-PD) specification (USB PD rev. 1), an extension that specifies using certified PD aware USB cables with standard USB Type-A and Type-B connectors to deliver increased power (more than 7.5W) to devices with greater power demands. (USB-PD A and B plugs have a mechanical mark while Micro plugs have a resistor or capacitor attached to the ID pin indicating the cable capability.) USB-PD Devices can request higher currents and supply voltages from compliant hosts—up to 2A at 5V (for a power consumption of up to 10W), and optionally up to 3A or 5A at either 12V (36W or 60W) or 20V (60W or 100W).
