So anyone here have to use a type C cable? Most new phones use it and some PCs come with the port built in already.

All my stuff still use Micro-USB ports, and a few older devices use Mini-USB.
I feel USB-C buying cables can be risky since some bad USB-C cables fried laptops and smartphones. There is always a chance of getting a defective USB-C cable which fry your smartphone.

My sister got a lenovo z2 plus and for that, the cable she uses is type c.
For me, it looks weird and I don't know why companies are making different stuff now...it's better to stick to one thing.

I think it is less likely to get a poorly built Micro-USB cable which breaks your device even when buying cheaper $1 Micro USB cables from the dollar store, eBay, etc. Most Micro-USB devices likes smartphones, tablets, MP3 players, etc don't use a lot of power to charge the device, so cheaper Micro-USB cables may less likely damage your device while charging.
But, there maybe more poor quality USB-C cables which may break your USB-C laptop and smartphone if the USB-C cable can't handle the large amount of power of a USB-C laptop charger which can use 90 watts of power.
