Does it make sense to buy a monitor with USB Type-C?

Question

Monitors

If you discard the options for connecting a laptop to a monitor and connecting a monitor to a PC video card.
I would like to hear "for" / "against" and alternative uses for such a connector in the monitor.

Answer 1

You connect the monitor via Type-C and get:

• Laptop starts charging
  
• The image is transferred to the monitor
  
• The sound is also transmitted to the speakers connected to the monitor (if any)
  
• USB flash drive, keyboard and mouse plugged into the monitor start working
  

And all this on one cable!
Otherwise, when setting up a workstation, you need to use 3+ cables for everything (USB for keyboard / mouse, HDMI for monitor, charging cable)
