That is correct I am not happy that I have to purchase an adapter or a new power plug as everything I have uses the USB A

I hear you about having to buy new accessories. I have purchased USB-C to USB-A adapters but I haven't used them in two years as I purchased a USB-C hub charger that includes both USB-C and USB-A.
