If I recall correctly, the XPS can charge either through USB-C, or through the dedicated port.

- neverminder 10y agoBut then why would they include a dedicated charging port? That doesn't make any sense.
- Brakenshire 10y agoIt's just an extra option, as I understand. It may also be because the hardware for USB charging in laptops is still emerging. Current chipsets seem to offer what they call 'USB-C charging', but not yet the higher power USB-PD spec. So perhaps in their judgment the offerings haven't developed enough for USB to be the sole mechanism.
