But there are countless times I&rsquo;ve flip-flopped USB cables to fit them into the slot perfectly. You might tell me, &ldquo;Ah you just need to flip it, what&rsquo;s the big deal?&rdquo; But wouldn&rsquo;t it be great to fit the USB connector in the slot in the first try every time?<\/p>\n<p>The trick is simple: look at the square &lsquo;holes,&rsquo; and if you see metal connectors inside, that is the &lsquo;Up&rsquo; side of the USB connector. If you see the colored plastic through these holes, that&rsquo;s the &lsquo;Down&rsquo; side of the connector.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1304669 lazy is-passedTop is-inView\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/07\/usb-plug-computer-informatics-pc-wallpaper-preview.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"617\" height=\"411\" data-offset=\"2548.75\" data-lazy-loaded=\"true\" \/><figcaption>Credit:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.peakpx.com\/436801\/black-usb-cable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">peakpx<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can also look at the tiny USB logo to determine which side is up, but the above trick helps when there&rsquo;s no USB logo. Now, that you know which side is &lsquo;Up,&rsquo; it&rsquo;s easy to plug in the USB cable without flipping it, every time.<\/p>\n<p>The world would be a much happier place if everyone used USB-C, so there&rsquo;s no chance of plugging a cable in a &lsquo;wrong&rsquo; way.<\/p>\n<p>Go on and impress people!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/07\/09\/how-to-plug-in-your-usb-cable-first-time-every-time\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/07\/09\/how-to-plug-in-your-usb-cable-first-time-every-time\/<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Ivan Mehta<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>Ivan Mehta<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"233\" height=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/4001-logo.png\" alt=\"\">Before we start talking about USB cables, I know some people will read the headline and go bonkers.
