In context: Despite promising a "universal" connectivity experience, the USB port has long been a source of frustration for PC users. Now, Microsoft is going the extra mile to finally address the compatibility issues and misinformation surrounding the standard – at least, for brand-new portable PCs.

How often do you find your various devices competing for the only available outlet? It’s frustrating having to make the tough call to which you’ll plug in, your phone or your laptop. You can connect one and then go plug in the other into a different outlet I suppose, but then that’s sometimes all the way on the other side of the room. Completely impractical. You’re better off investing in a reliable wall charger block that can power all your devices simultaneously. The Anker 20W USB-C charger ha

We've been covering the small, reversible USB Type-C connector since the days when it was just a USB Implementers Forum tech demo, and in the decade-plus since then, the port has gradually taken over the world.

Despite some hiccups and shortcomings, we're considerably closer to a single connector that does everything than we were a decade ago. But some of that confusion persi
