What the heck is a thunderbolt port for?

278 viewsOtherTechnology

I have a thunderbolt port on my laptop. I’ve tried to look up what it is used for, watched some videos, but I’m still confused. Can I use it to power my laptop? Does it transfer stuff faster? Do I need a special cord? Can I plug that cord into something normal? Explain it to me like I’m five please.

Thunderbolt is a protocol. It uses a USB-C connector. Thunderbolt is a language, whereas USB-C is your voice box. There are other languages which use USB-C, such as USB4.
