EU rules on common chargers apply to laptops from today. It means that all new laptops sold in the European Union must now support USB-C charging.

In December 2024, the rules came into force for mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, headphones, videogame consoles, and portable speakers.

Laptop manufacturers were given a longer lead in time to allow for redesign and transition to the common charging system.

The majority of my gaming is on the road too but I've found the Steam Deck hits that niche for me. I carry a thin Chromebook for work related things. Admittedly you don't need as powerful a GPU for a small 720p display.

I've also got a steam deck. Unfortunately it just doesn't cut it for games like satisfactory or factorio.
