USB-C
A Universal Serial Bus interface standard that supports reversible plug orientation, high-speed data transfer and power delivery, and is widely used in modern electronic devices.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The MacBook Pro introduced a Retina display in 2012, moved to USB-C ports and the butterfly keyboard in 2016, and returned to MagSafe and HDMI ports and adopted a notch display in 2021.
Many Displays distinguishes identical monitors by reading the port path each monitor is connected to (such as the location of the USB-C/Thunderbolt port), ensuring windows return to the correct physical screen.
Sprout Pi supports a USB-C port, replacing the original iPod's 30-pin connector, allowing charging and data transfer with standard cables.
Because the body is too thin to accommodate a standard USB-C connector, the Lexar Muse uses a proprietary Pogo pin connection to interface with an iPhone or computer.
A developer connected an iPhone 17 Pro Max to a 24GB-memory M4 Pro MacBook via a 10 Gb/s USB-C cable, using the phone as a second GPU to share the computational load for a locally running Qwen 3.8 27B (IQ4_XS quantization) model.
The MacBook eliminated all traditional ports, retaining only USB-C.
A USB-C cable that only supports charging may be unable to transmit video signals.
The EU's legislative process for a unified charging interface began in 2009, when there were more than 30 different mobile phone charger standards on the market.
In 2022, the EU formally legislated to require all smartphones and other devices sold in the EU to adopt USB-C connectors by the end of 2024.
In order to achieve its ultra-slim design, the Lexar Muse forgoes a built-in USB-C port.
