Google announced on the official blog some new features that will be launched on Chromebooks, one of which is an update for the USB-C data cable.
Google says that many users have used a spare USB-C cable to connect a dock or monitor to their computer, but it may not work when connected. This is not necessarily because the data cable is broken. In many cases, the USB-C data cable specification is not enough to support the connected device.
Now, if the USB-C cable doesn't support the monitor, or the performance isn't suitable for the Chromebook, the user will be notified with a popup . Also, if the USB-C cable does not support the high-performance USB4 / Thunderbolt 3 standard, the system will also send a notification.
