No, mini HDMI and USB Type-C are not the same. They are two different types of connectors designed for different purposes:

1. Mini HDMI (HDMI Type C): A smaller version of the standard HDMI connector, commonly used for portable devices like cameras, tablets, or smaller laptops. It transmits high-definition video and audio signals.

2. USB Type-C: A versatile, reversible connector used for data transfer, charging, and video output. It's used on many modern devices, such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, and monitors, and can support video (DisplayPort or HDMI protocols), charging, and data transfer through the same cable.

In short, mini HDMI is specifically designed for video/audio output, while USB Type-C can handle a broader range of tasks, including video, data, and power delivery.
