Tell that to the brand new, pretty expensive laptop I recently got from work which has a whopping 1 USB-C port that also doubles as the charging port. In no way can I get a multifunctional adapter to charge and output DisplayPort or HDMI at the same time. I’m starting to dislike USB and the clusterfuck of incompatible or optional protocols it can carry.
What about a real usbc/thunderbolt Dockingstation of lenovo/hp/dell? These cost ~200€, though.
I could try that, but at the moment I’ve spent enough on adapters and docking stations.
Currently I have peripherals, network and charger connected to a docking station and just plug in HDMI directly into my laptop. Not ideal, I would have preferred everything over a single connector, but it is workable enough I guess.
Wow, really? I guess that unfortunately makes sense. I have a dock for my work laptop that charges and works for HDMI/etc but it uses an entire two USB-C ports at once.
