OnePlus 2 was the first phone to feature reversible USB Type-C port. Three years later, the transition to the Type-C port is near complete, especially for mid-range and premium phones. However, you’d still be hard-pressed to come across a Type-C affordable phone. (हिंदी में पढ़िए)

This is one area where manufacturers don’t mind holding back, perhaps because not many consumers mind connector types on their phones and it makes more sense for OEMs to focus on other features that will have a bigger impact.

Well, it’s about time that changes and USB Type-C ports gain some traction. The regular micro USB port is still acceptable but it does feel dated on modern smartphones. Also, most cool smartphone accessories these days like wireless headphones, power banks, etc. come with a Type-C charging port.

In case Type-C port is something that you value and don’t want to miss out on, here is a list of phones that include the reversible connector for under Rs. 20,000.

What are the advantages of Type-C port on smartphones?

Not many actually. Most USB Type-C ports on phones are still based on USB 2.0 (even on expensive high-end phones), and not USB 3.1. So, the data transfer and charging speeds are analogous to usual micro USB 2.0 based regular Type-B ports.

The Type-C port, however, entails the benefit of being reversible. It’s simply more convenient to plug-in as you don’t have to scramble to see which side goes up and which one goes down. Since you have to plug a chord in your phone on a regular basis, this does make a difference.

Also, if you already have a USB Type-C accessory, for instance, wireless earbuds or wireless headphones that charge over a Type-C port, life will be simpler if you have a Type-C port on your phone as well since then you will also have to lug just one charger.

The main advantages of the USB Type-C port will start showing up when the ports are based on USB 3.1 (like on Pixel phones). Type-C is the only micro USB standard that’s compatible with USB 3.1, which should result in significantly improved data transfer and charging speeds. Type-C port can also be used to add two way charging to phones.

USB Type-C port on laptops, on the other hand, are put to multiple uses. The single port can replace VGA cable, HDMI port, display port and also supports Thunderbolt standard.
