Agreed. Any compliant USB-C cable supports all the features lightning does, aka. power and USB 2.0 data. It also supports HDMI but that's used with an adapter

It also supports HDMI but that's used with an adapter anyway, so it's not a consideration if it works for a user.
- lxgr 3y agoMost USB-C devices really only support DisplayPort for video output. There's an HDMI "alt mode", but almost no device uses that directly; most USB-C-to-HDMI adapters and cables are accordingly really combined USB-C to DisplayPort and DisplayPort to HDMI converters and translate one protocol to the other at the electrical and logical level.
- chx 3y agoit's not "almost", it's literally no device: there are no hosts and there are no cables. And it was killed officially this year, too.
