Android wins again.
- Open protocol wins.
  Closed, narrowinded protocol lost.
- Remember when Apple was on the design committee for usb c and was the first to put it in all its MacBooks and everyone removeded and whined about dongles? How the turntables.
  
  I bet if Apple didn’t take the leap to a USB-C only laptop design most laptops from other manufacturers would still be USB-A only.
  
  Most peripherals still use USB-A though, so I've never seen the advantage of having a USB-C port on my laptop. I never use it. I guess I could connect my phone, but that seems rather pointless. (Most of the charging bricks I own still have USB-A too, and I have way too many to go buy another one. It was cheaper just to buy a new cable for me phone.)
  
  USB-C is great for external monitor connections from laptops.
  
  Is it better than HDMI? That's what I typically use now. (Display port on my desktop PC.)
  
  It's nicer for laptops because you can have power, display, and internet in one cable going to a dock. TBH I don't see many benefits for desktops. You could daisy chain monitors and have less cables I guess.
  
  Oh, I see now. Yes, I can see how that would be a nice benefit for using it on a laptop. I'm not even sure my monitors have USB-C inputs, but I'm probably behind the times
  
  Intel also had them in their higher end consumer gear (eg. their high-end NUCs etc)
  
  Remember when Apple didn't even use the plug until the EU forced them? Get the fuck out of here with the, "they invented it" BS. Fucking pathetic cope.
  
  And? You're actually just accidentally pointing out how fucked up it is that they chose not to implement it on phones.
  
  All that means is that they think certain ports have certain purposes. I don’t think that’s the win you think it is. Why not just have everything be an rj45 port then? Clearly lightning has an advantage in phone ports, as numerous others have listed.
  
  It has the advantage of making them millions on cables and licenses. Stop pretending that USB wasn't designed to be an all purpose bus with additionally this exact use case in mind. Which apple helped develop.
  Simp harder
