Micro USB 3.0 - will it fit?

[Stevies#AC]

Hi folks,

Quick question. I was looking for a longer USB for the EVO and was looking at this cable. It is a USB to Micro USB 3.0 cable.

It seems to have a completely different end to the usual micro USB - would I be right in assuming that it won't fit?

Thanks

Stevie

That is micro not microusb also it would b pointless because the EVO..or any phone for that matter does not have 3.0 compatibibiles

Thanks for the info - didn't think it would work. Was hoping for a faster charge time and data transfer!

Thanks

Per the site

Will my existing peripherals still work? How will they co-exist?
The good news is that USB 3.0 has been carefully planned from the start to peacefully co-exist with USB 2.0. First of all, while USB 3.0 specifies new physical connections and thus new cables to take advantage of the higher speed capability of the new protocol, the connector itself remains the same rectangular shape with the four USB 2.0 contacts in the exact same location as before.

However this is wrong as stated by another poster. Here is a site with great information on the many types of USB connections.
