There are two USB 3.0 ports and one USB Type-C port. USB Type-C is a new standard just like USB 3.0 was newer than 2.0. As technology progresses, ports will inevitably be updated to allow faster file transfers and charging capabilities. Unlike USB Type-A or USB Type-B, the USB Type-C connector has reversible plug orientation, which means it can also be plugged upside down, making it easier for all users. USB Type-C plugs have high endurance and longevity. They are designed in a way that endures no less than 10,000 insertion and extraction cycles. USB Type-C connectors can transmit DisplayPort signals at up to 4K resolution. The new plug can also handle electrical power of up to 100W. The one downfall of USB Type-C is that the old USB types will not fit in the port. You will have to use an adapter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are 2 traditional USB ports and one HDMI port which can have an adapter. I like an external keyboard and mouse and have some "old school" versions that I like that require connectivity to USB so I purchased a 4 port USB Hub at Best Buy for $24.99 which has been perfect. It is small and works for my Fitbit charger too!
