What is the difference between Thunderbolt and USB-C?
The connectors look identical. Both are small and oval-shaped. USB-C is the standard used everywhere. Thunderbolt is a faster, more advanced version that works with USB-C cables but costs more.
USB-C and Thunderbolt use the same physical connector shape, but they're not the same inside. USB-C transfers data at a basic speed and is found on phones, tablets, and computers everywhere. Thunderbolt is faster and built into high-end laptops like MacBooks and some Windows machines. A USB-C cable plugs into a Thunderbolt port, but it won't go as fast.
