This. Plus at least two USB 3.1 Type-C (Thunderbolt/DisplayPort) ports with USB Type-C charging would really make it stand out.

  Strictly speaking this is Thunderbolt 3 (PCIe) which when the proper adapter is plugged in, can become HDMI, DisplayPort. And it would be USB 3.1 Gen 2. USB 3.1 alone implies Gen 1 which is the same as USB 3.0. The HP Spectre (W2K28UA) I have has three type-c ports. One is USB 3.1 Gen 1, is not Thunderbolt, is power. Two are Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.1 Gen 2, no power. (No power icon anyway, I haven't tried plugging the power adapter into either of them, maybe it'd work.)

    Regarding USB Type-C charging - I have 2015 Chromebook Pixel LS with two USB Type-C ports (one on each side of the laptop). The charging works on both ports which makes sense and I'm fairly sure this is the first ever laptop to allow charger to be plugged in on both sides of the laptop - convenience not to be underestimated. So from my point of view USB Type-C charging should work on every USB Type-C port.

    > USB 3.1 alone implies Gen 1 Does it really? I say slap anyone that implies that until they stop doing it.
