What's the difference between USB-A and USB-C? In reality, aside from the connector, not a helluva lot. As to inserting a USB-A incorrectly, just look for the seam in the metal head. It goes on the bottom. Wow! That's so hard to figure out. The other difference? Millions of devices are being made obsolete (obsolescent?) because of the change in connector and no other logical or supportable reason. The mictosoft school of upgrades strikes again.
