@Germo @EU_Commission no, the EU does not force you to replace any of the devices you already have.

@Reemt @EU_Commission but they don't have usb-c.
What does 'mandatory' mean?

@Germo mandatory means that manufacturers of certain types of devices (including phones) are required to include USB-C ports from 2024 if the device is to be sold. Devices manufactured before then are not affected.

This is perhaps the most stupid question, I read in my entire life.

You can still use your 80s Walkman with its own charger, if you want to.

@Germo

Sorry for the "most stupid question". This wasn't fair and not friendly at all.

I should have just answered.
Definitely not my finest hour.

I ask for your forgiveness.
