Pc or laptop.
Some of these usb-c is actually thunderbolt port which can use for display output and faster file transfer compared to normal usb speed.

Nearly half way through 2023 liao, still got seisohai don't understand that USB-C is a connector type.

The transport is what matters. Check la your manual.

More is coming since it can be backward compatible. At least now you have native port

What TS mean by "reduced usb-a"? Usb 2.0 spec? If pc don't come with usb-a (doubt it since rear port usually have for mouse and keyboard) can buy usb-c hub with usb-a ports.

i mean last time when you buy a mobo, it can have like 6-12 usb-a ports on the mobo(exclude pins only on the mobo), with limited back-panel size, they cant add more, so they change to usb-c which is much smaller, to allow them to use the extra space for other purposes.

if you cant use your brain, then dont post, if you wanna post, make sure it goes through your brain 1st.

not all usb device need high speed, like mouse, keyboard, bluetooth, speaker, even cheapo pendrive dont need high speed.

usb-a is connector, it can go upto 10gbps using usb 3.2, it might not be as good as usb-c, but its no longer "slow"

Gamers do, bluetooth latency is too high. You'll need to use a proprietary wireless protocol like logitech lightspeed to achieve good input latency. That requires you to use their dongle, which takes up a USB slot. Unfortunately lightspeed dongles are still USB-A if I'm not mistaken.
