USB Type C (or just USB-C) is a new type of connector that will be a standard for almost all USB cables in the future. It means that you’ll only have to buy one type of cable, or does it? USB-C may seem simple, but in reality, there are several different types and varieties with different features, and if you buy the wrong one, it might not work as you expect. USB-C cables can have different “alternate modes” that use other protocols such as displayport, thunderbolt, or even HDMI, but not every USB C cable will have these.
