USB4 supports DP and TB3.
My phone doesn’t have any kind of marking anywhere on it so I’m guessing it’s USB DP
Googling for it, my phone (pixel 9 pro fold) has USB 3.2, so it shouldn’t be able to drive a DP display
Was wondering about thunderbolt. Found this, which I interpret as
usb 4 40 = thunderbolt 4
Wow what a marketing
