I just use AirPods or a set of over-ear sennheisers, but that's unrelated to the USB-C's since there's a headphone jack.
I really like the transfer speed of the USB-C ports, I've spent maybe $70 on new cables (usb-c -> DisplayPort, a usb-c/usb flash drive, and a USB-C -> lightning and 1 or 2 others). The only thing that really bothers me about the IO is that the iPhone still uses lighting, i think it should adopt USB-C as well for consistency. Otherwise i have no gripes about the IO, I think USB-C will see heavy adoption in the coming months/years and honestly i think wireless is continuing to make hardware IO irrelevant in my life.
Other gripes i have are the slightly reduced battery life and the removal of magsafe, but i think the nice screen and the form factor make up for it.
I'm a relative newcomer to the apple ecosystem (first iPhone an MacBook in 2014) so i have no real opinion on the mac pro, except that it is likely overpriced for my workload, I'm unlikely to want a desktop mac outside of the one i use at work.
Edit: for clarification i have the 2017 13 inch model with toucbar.
