Is USB-C and Thunderbolt the same thing?

Not quite. There is some difference between USB-C and Thunderbolt:
- USB-C is a connector shape.
- Thunderbolt (3/4) uses USB-C but offers faster speeds, more power, and support for multiple protocols, like PCIe, DisplayPort, and USB.
All Thunderbolt ports are USB-C, but not all USB-C ports support Thunderbolt.

Thunderbolt docks cost more because:
- Certified Thunderbolt chipsets (Intel).

Is Thunderbolt better than HDMI?

Yes, Thunderbolt is better than HDMI for many use cases:
