The USB Type-C interface was not invented by Huawei, but it was not invented by Apple. Apple is just one of the later contributors. Apple joined the USB Association in the middle and late period of 14. Uploading Apple on the Internet basically completed Type-C at the end of 13, and then handed it over to Intel (similar articles on the Internet were written according to an article by a foreign fruit powder digital blogger named John Gruber).
At the end of 20 13, some features of Type-C were announced, and there were no apples among the participants. In other words, Apple just secretly made a device interface to Intel, and then Intel immediately took it for itself. I don't think Apple is that generous, but this is a brand-new interface, and profits can be suspended from lightning. As a result, it was given to Intel without seeking fame or profit, just for the early release of typec C C.
In addition, the USB Type-C specification has hundreds of pages, and the shape design is only a small part, which is more of a protocol specification. When 13 released some specifications of Type-C, the pd protocol was still developed according to the old connection (instead of the typec released by 14, it was developed according to the new connection changed by 14).
You know, Apple is not interested in Micro-USB, otherwise it will not release the lightning interface at 12. If Apple invented Type-C, how could it develop a new interface based on the backward Micro-USB instead of the lightning interface just released a year ago?
