i meant if i can charge the laptop using that port, not a phone or so, +if i can do it, why it has a dedicated charging port on the other side?

If so, why does the computer has a dedicated  hp charger port on the other side?

It is the USB-C port on the left hand side, next to the microSD card reader.

But on the right side there is a dedicated charger port. A unique hp port. So why put a c type charging port as well?

You have 2 questions

 

1. Can you use USB-C to charge your machine, my answer is yes and you can use charger from the link.

2. Can you use USB-C and USB-A to transfer files/data, my answer is yes, you can use both of them.

 

I know your machine has normal (round) charging port on the right. You have to make your decision: do you prefer to charge your machine using USB-C OR normal round port.  If you preferred to use the round port, why did you ask for an USB-C charger ???

 

Hope this makes sense.

@saarb737 

 

Why you house has power source everywhere ? The USB-C port can be  used for many tasks including for charging the machine. It is up to you because you asked and I answered.

 

>>> Isnt it weird and making questions? 

I did not say that. I only ask you why. If I was you, I would NOT spend money to buy another charger and use USB-C port for other things.
