Now the digital electronic equipment market, Type-C interface has become the mainstream, no distinction between positive and negative can also have a faster transmission speed. In all digital electronic equipment manufacturers are respected the use of Type-C interface, Microsoft has just released the Surface Laptop did not use Type-C interface, which is why the reasons why Microsoft does not use Type-C interface?
Surface Engineering Director Pete Kyriacou explained: Not that we completely ignore the Type-C interface solution, but for Microsoft, the Surface Connect port is still a balanced charge and expansion of the better program. The magnetic attachment scheme is very powerful, and in the highest extended scenario the port can connect four USB ports, Gigabit Ethernet ports, battery charging, and two external displays.
In addition, Kyriacou also said that the current Type-C technology is not very stable, blindly use Type-C notebook is meaningless, people should pay more attention to the product itself rather than useless Type-C interface. On the current situation, Microsoft believes that Type-C interface is not suitable for Surface, so still use the Surface Connect port to enhance consumer satisfaction.
