> USB 3.2 has the same connector as USB-C

USB-C is a connector, so you cannot say "has the same connector as USB-C".

It is the only connector for USB 3.2, and a connector that is compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 2.

Edit: I meant it is the only connector for USB 3.2 "Gen 2x2", and compatible with 3.1 Gen 2 (now called 3.2 Gen 2)

From what I've been able to find, not even that is reliably true. Looks like the older connectors can be labeled USB 3.2 as long as they use the "x1" scheme in the label and are capable of reaching the speed of that scheme.


There is no USB 3.1 Gen 2. There is only USB 3.2 Gen 2. ;D
