As of last Monday, all of my daily-driver tech is finally on native USB-C. I cannot express how convenient this is without writing an entire essay. It's like all of those clunky universal AC adapters from the 90's but better in every conceivable way.
I just plugged my laptop charger into my phone and my phone charger into my laptop. Both were just like "okey-dokey! ๐ Charging."
The only negative is that it's still a little annoying checking specs to be sure the PD chargers support the full 5, 9, 12, 15, and 20 volt options as well as finding reliable vendors of 100W, e-marked cables. Hopefully that improves in the future.
Still, it's better than carrying around discrete chargers for everything. My travel bag feels at least 5 pounds lighter.
If anyone can recommend any high-wattage 12-24v DC power-delivery adapters that can output 20v, please do (i.e. cigaratte-lighter plug style for a car). The best I've found so far is a 45w one that will charge my laptop, but only if it's asleep or off.
I agree, USB-C is magic and I want it everywhere !
I have a USB-C hub at work and at home. When I arrive with my laptop I can just plug the USB-C and I have the screen, keyboard, mouse, power and Ethernet connected instantly. Same thing at home, where I'm sharing the desk with my wife. Whoever is using the desk just need to plug their laptop with the USB-C and that's it !
Even better, one day I arrived at work and realized I forgot my laptop. No problem, I just plugged my smartphone on the hub AND IT WORKED ! I just had to do a remote desktop on our server from the phone and I could work for the day !
