You lose on port if you only charge.
- nine_k 4y agoIf you badly run out of ports, USB hubs with power pass-through are very much a thing.
- cmeacham98 4y agoLet me provide an alternative way of thinking about it: you _gain_ one port when you're not charging. If we replaced the usb-c charging port with a normal charging port you would permanently lose it.
- gsich 4y agoNot replaced, in addition. Like Apple does.
- cmeacham98 4y agoPorts take up space on the outside and inside of the computer. If we're going to add an extra port for some proprietary charger, why not just make it an extra usb-c port instead?
