USB Colors have meanings?

so that's why my mouse won't turn off

I was sure it was something like: white: usb2.0 or older blue: usb 3.0 Other: refer to manual

Imagine the green and purple USB ports on a vintage style sleeper to mimic PS/2

My RBG keyboard staying on always makes sense now

Razer using green on everything just cuz 😭

This is the type of thing that shorts should be used for. Good job LTT team.

SS stands for super saiyan because it's all about the different colors now

So that's why my toothbrush charges with the pc turned off. 🤣

I knew about white, black and blue but I had no idea that red was anything but a design choice.

man, people don't realize just how fucking insane hot plugging was

cooler master is purple, and razer is green mine*

You're telling me the colors have a purpose and they're not just some random color the manufacturer added?

Green and purple are probably a throwback to when mouse and keyboards had their own slot in those colors

This is some actual great tech tips actually

Strange coincidence that UFDTech posted a short on the same topic 2 days ago

Green and purple usb ports are for keyboard and mice, like in a good old days.

Green and Purple are the colors of the Keyboard and Mouse. Those are suggested keyboard and mouse inputs because of their original connectors color coding prior to USB.

My Lenovo t480 laptop has two black usb 3.1 ports. Good guide tho, commonly is a good way to put it as many devices and accessories especially gaming ones use whatever color they want.

I thought green and purple was a hint to old mouse and keyboard ports. You know … the round ones.

I have seen orange on cables and sometimes green on charging bricks for phones
