What about red USB-A ports, and USB-C ports with no symbol by them at all (like on phones and desktop PCs)?

On gigabyte boards, red ports were/are signifying their "ON/OFF charge" and "3x power" gimmicks. Basically means that it's a usb 2.0, with 1.5A limit over normal 500mA, and remains powered when the PC is turned off.
