There are many USB standards, and even those that have been determined before have undergone new changes with the launch of the new generation. We will take out USB 3.1 and USB 3.2 separately in this issue. They are basically similar in appearance, but there are some differences in parameter comparison. Let's take a look at the specific differences below.
Speed Differences Between USB 3.1 and USB 3.2
At first, it was easy to distinguish the relationship between USB 3.1 and 3.2. For example, in terms of theoretical bandwidth, USB 3.0 theoretical bandwidth is 5Gbps; USB 3.1 theoretical bandwidth is 10Gbps; USB 3.2 theoretical bandwidth is 20Gbps. However, with the addition of USB4, the USB standard has changed. It is not in the order of USB 3.3 or 3.4 but renamed. Let's sort it out.
Differences between USB 3.1 and USB 3.2 interfaces
We all know that USB4 only has Type-C ports and USB 3.2 also has only Type-C ports. In USB 3.1, we can still see the familiar A and B ports. So, in terms of interfaces, USB has further streamlined the types of interfaces in the upgrade standard.

The differences among the three are not very obvious, and the main difference is in the transmission speed, so it is easy to see the characteristics of this USB.
Current development of USB 3.0 products
The relationship between USB 3.1 and USB 3.2 is almost clear. Although they are faster than USB 3.0 in transmission speed, it does not mean that USB 3.0 is less popular. USB 3.0 has a transmission speed of 5 Gbps (500 MB/s) and a wide variety of interfaces. It is still very important in the current industrial data transmission environment.
