So you cite a sample of N=1 and then claim than anything else must be from within a bubble? Interesting.

- midasuni 5y agoI’m at a hotel breakfast, so far this morning I’ve seen half a dozen usb-a sockets and not a single usb-c socket. Majority of electronic devices are older than usb-c standard, even the electric screwdriver I bought two months ago was micro-usb, as is the shaver I used this morning. At work about half the low power devices are PoE or Micro-USB. Aside from a few laptops USB-C is still rare.
- notacoward 5y agoThat's still just anecdote. I have USB-C for one pair of headphones, two pairs of earbuds, a bedside light/charger, and of course my phone. But I don't assume my experience is universal. I look at data, as should you, and it does seem that there are indeed billions of devices out there using USB-C. https://epsnews.com/2017/12/28/usb-type-c-adoption-keeps-growing-industry-segments/ https://epsnews.com/2017/12/28/usb-type-c-adoption-keeps-gro... Looks like phones alone account for ~3B in a single year, so no, it's not just laptops. Even if you exclude those, the "consumer electronics" segment looks like it'll go over 1B/year pretty soon. Get out of your bubble.
