Apple Loses Top Laptop Rating

Apple has always been early on technology changes like USB-C, in a couple years we'll look back on this like when the iMac dropped the floppy drive. USB-C is obviously better, it's just a matter of time before everything uses it.

Doesn't really matter if it's better. TVs still use HDMI and most likely will for another 10+ yr. They're just reducing the functionality of the laptop.

Apple has been anything but early on USB-C.

How many laptop had only USB-C before the MacBook in early 2015? The spec was only finalized in August 2014.

And then they released new laptops in late 2015 with no USB-C ports. And 2 iterations of phones.
