AI Summary

USB‑C flash drives are more convenient for newer devices because the smaller, reversible connector is standard on most modern laptops, tablets and smartphones. However, the connector type does not affect transfer speed, so a USB‑C drive is not inherently faster than a USB‑A drive. For moving large photos, videos or documents on mobile devices, the ease of use of USB‑C makes it the preferred option.
