The latest MacBooks use USB C for the charging port. It doubles as a USB data port and USB C is the latest usb standard across all brands.

About time, after years of dicking customers around with ridiculously expensive cables for custom connections, proprietary extensions to open standards and shifting the goal posts on all of hose.
Except that they're still treating the customers like patsies. The cheaper Mac models only got standard USB C ports, leaving customers who chose those with a lot of obsolete Thunderbolt 2 kit. You have to pay premium to get a USB-C/Thunderbolt-3 port.

The cuntishness over not paying tax in Ireland. Yes the government let it happen, yes a lot of companies are at it, but when the EU fined the Irish gov for knowingly letting Apple do this, the CEO made some sovereignty hinting comments. That was really one bridge too far for me.
Oh and their new laptops need a million adapters to plug in. Nope. Lenovo and normal ports for me.
