The European Commission has announced an agreement on a common charger for all phones, tablets and headphones.
All small and medium devices will use USB type C chargers from 2024.
It's part of a broader effort to make products in the EU more sustainable, to reduce electronic waste, and make consumers' lives easier.
Under the new rules, consumers will no longer need a different charger and cable every time they buy a new device and can use one single charger for all small and medium-sized electronics.
Today FM's Tech Correspondent Jess Kelly says it's a positive development:
"This is great news for consumers, as well as the environment.
"So from autumn 2024, whether you're charging a phone, a tablet, an e-reader, your headphones, a camera - whatever it is.
"They will all have to be charged with a USB Type-C charger."
