I really prefer USB C over both DisplayPort and HDMI.

Reasons:

- Easy to hook up to modern laptop (all MacBooks) that only have USB-C outputs.

- This allows your TV to become a hub.

- I have invest in a lot of high quality USB C cables rather lots of differ types of cables all of which requires either hubs, or built-in converters.

Can you hook up a USB C display to a iPhone or Android phone directly yet?

My ask of TV manufacturers:

Modern TVs should have built in cameras/microphones (or the ability to pull in a cameras via USB and mount it on top) to enable video conferencing so that my chromecast/Google TV device can run get me into Zooms/Google Meets without any other devices.
