    The USB-C port on the Surface Laptop 4 does all three: Power + Data + Display.

    One cable can charge it, transfer data, and drive an external display simultaneously — it's just bandwidth-limited compared to the USB4/Thunderbolt 4 ports on newer Surface Laptop 7 or Pro 11 models.

    For Surface Laptop 4, the USB-C port supports power, data transfer, and display output.

    The supported USB-C behaviors in the Surface device matrix for Surface Laptop 4 (Intel only) are:

    • Data enabled
    • Display-out enabled
    • Power delivery enabled

    That corresponds to Power + Data + Display.
