- dangus 7y agoHmm well it’s not like every laptop or adapter that has HDMI involved is guaranteed to support HDMI 2.0, either. I’m not sure how this is an example of Apple doing something user-hostile. It’s an example of two similar industry standards existing and having different levels of capability at different times. Plenty of non-Apple products don’t support 4K 60Hz and plenty of non-Apple laptops require some kind of adapter to connect to a full size HDMI port, like the current XPS 13. In fact, Apple switching to USB-C was moving from a proprietary connector (MagSafe) to an industry standard. So I’m struggling to figure out how that’s user-hostile. It’s better than all the business laptops with proprietary dock ports or the proprietary surface connector. I guess it sucks that I was an early adopter and I got the early adapter but on the other hand 4K displays weren’t anywhere near affordable in 2016.
