TVs with USB-C port

USB-C

— a modern universal port that can be used both for transmitting video and audio, as well as for connecting and powering external devices. Unlike the familiar USB-A, the USB-C port is more compact and often supports higher data transfer speeds. In some TV models, it can output images from a laptop, tablet, or smartphone, using the TV as a large monitor. Sometimes the USB-C port on the TV also functions as a power source for gadgets — for instance, charging a set-top box or media player directly from the TV without a separate adapter. In terms of connecting signal sources, it partially competes with HDMI, but USB-C is convenient because of its versatility: the same cable can both charge a device and transmit an image from it, which is especially relevant for users of modern ultrabooks and smartphones.
