The next USB cable will be reversible, its developers have announced.

This will mean users of the Universal Serial Bus cables will be able to plug the part into a device no matter which way it is facing, ending frustrated attempts to charge a phone or tablet with an upside-down cable.

The Type-C cable, due to be finalised by mid-2014 and on the market by 2016, will also be smaller in size so that it is similar to the current Micro USB plug.

It will also be able to conduct data speed transfers of up to 10 Gbps, double the speed possible at the moment.

Apple’s Lightning connector is reversible, and the new USB will follow in its footsteps.

At present USB cables can only be plugged into a device one way round for the data connection to work, but the Promoter Group announced will not be the case with the Type-C.

Brad Saunders, USB 3.0 Promoter Group chairman, said: “While USB technology is well established as the favoured choice for connecting and powering devices, we recognize the need to develop a new connector to meet evolving design trends in terms of size and usability.
“The new Type-C connector will fit well with the market’s direction and affords an opportunity to lay a foundation for future versions of USB.”

^{The different models of USB}
The vice president of the Platform’s engineering group, Alex Peleg, added that the new model “will enable an entirely new super thin class of devices from phones to tablets, to 2-in-1s, to laptops to desktops and a multitude of other more specific usage devices.”
The Promoter Group is made up of Intel, HP, Microsoft, Renesas Electronics, ST-Ericsson and Texas Instruments, and agrees the design of the standard USB.

The US Department of Justice on Monday approved Microsoft’s $7 billion purchase of Nokia’s handset unit, removing a major obstacle to the transaction.

The decision, announced by the Federal Trade Commission, means that the deal will be finalised as soon as European Commission regulators add their approval, which is expected.

Microsoft announced the deal in September, including the rights to Nokia patents as well its smartphone products which are the main implementation of Microsoft’s Window’s phone software. About 32,000 Nokia employees are expected to join Microsoft. Nokia shareholders approved the deal last month.

“We look forward to the date when our partners at Nokia will become members of the Microsoft family, and are pleased that the Department of Justice has cleared the deal unconditionally,” Microsoft said in a statement.

Driven by lower-priced models from domestic handset makers, smartphone sales in India has grown over three-fold to touch 12.8 million units in third quarter of 2013 cannibalising the feature phone market, research firm IDC says.

According to IDC, the India smartphone market grew by 229% year-on-year to 12.8 million smartphones in third quarter of 2013 compared to 3.8 million units in Q3 of 2012.

Smartphone sales grew 28% in Q3 of 2013 compared to April-June 2013 (10.02 million), it added.

A smartphone is a mobile device built on a mobile operating system, with more advanced capabilities and connectivity than a feature phone.

IDC said 53.9 million feature phones numbers were sold in Q3 of 2013 compared to 55.7 million in Q3 of 2012.

The share of feature phones slipped to 81% (from 84%) of the total market in Q3 2013, it added.

This is despite feature phone sales growing three per cent quarter-on-quarter in the July-September 2013.

"The change agents for this rapid shift of consumer preference towards Smartphones have been the narrowing price gap between feature phones and smartphones," IDC India Research Manager Kiran Kumar said.

The smartphone market is expected to maintain these elevated levels of growth in the near future, Kumar added.

The overall mobile phone market (feature phones and smartphones) registered 12% year-on-year growth and 7% sequential growth.

The share of feature phones slipped to 81% of the total market in Q3 2013, even as the segment grew 3% quarter-on-quarter in the July-September 2013.

South Korean firm Samsung led the handset market with 15.3% share, followed by Nokia (14.7%), Micromax (10.1%) and Karbonn (9.1%). Other smaller players accounted for a cumulative share of 50.8%.

"The growth in the smartphone market continues to drive the overall growth numbers for the phone market - given that there's still a huge potential for smartphone penetration in India, this trend is expected to continue in the coming quarters," IDC India Senior Market Analyst Manasi Yadav said.

In the smartphone segment, Samsung held the leadership spot with 32.9 per cent share, while Micromax secured the second spot with 17.1% market share in Q3 of 2013. Karbonn had 11.2% share, followed by Nokia 5% and Lava at 4.7%.

Google has let us know the latest breakdown of its Android mobile operating system statistics, and for the first time, Android 4.4 KitKat has appeared on the radar. In this month’s pie chart, the Android 4.4 KitKat market share makes its debut, but needless to say, it remain extremely small in nature – measuring all of just 1.1%. That is not surprising since Android 4.4 KitKat happens to be made available to an extremely limited number of handsets, including the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7, the Google Play edition phones and the Moto X. As for the largest distribution of the Android version on the pie, it would be Android 4.1 to Android 4.3. Jelly Bean, where their combined total managed to touch a market share of 54.5%. This marks an increase of 2.4% in comparison to the previous month, while Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich saw a decline of 1.2% to touch 18.6% this month. Android 3.2 Honeycomb remained pretty much the same at just 0.1%, while Android 2.3 Gingerbread makes haste on its downward spiral, dropping to just 24.1% with no sign of it making a comeback – which is a good thing, of course, since it would signal that more and more folks have jumped onto newer versions of the Android operating system. When do you think Android 4.4 KitKat will be the dominant version? KitKat has been ported over before to older handsets, too.: http://www.ubergizmo.com/2013/12/kitkat-now-part-of-android-distribution-stats/
