Power delivery is just as likely to to be soldered to the motherboard as it is to be on a daughter board. It just depends on the particular model. This is for just about every brand.

I still prefer lenovos square shaped charger ports over just about any other tbh.

At least on my pavilion, it's just one simple daughter board for one of the USB ports. It's the one I use the most. I can replace it easily if it breaks. The pcb is also very simple so it ends up being very cheap.

The square shaped one threw me for a loop the first time I worked in a computer with one.
