We have a deal on the common charger! 🇪🇺
This means more savings for EU consumers and less waste for the planet:
🔌 mobile phones, tablets, cameras… will all use USB type C
🔌 harmonised fast-charging technology
🔌 unbundling of sale of chargers
IMHO USB-C should have been the first, default and possibly only USB connector back when USB got released in the 90s.

Yes, it includes laptops.
"Laptops will also have to be adapted to the requirements by 40 months after the entry into force."
