I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

Review for Slim Aluminum Type-C Multi-port Adapter v2 There was a task to connect my MacBook Pro 2022 to the monitor. The rest of the ports were optional. I mainly use the keyboard and trackpad on the beech itself. After connecting to the monitor in the first HDMI port, I caught terrible noise on the monitor. I thought that the problem was in the adapter itself, but no. The first port of my monitor supports 4K @ 60Hz, the second only supports 4K @ 30Hz. Accordingly, it is solved by switching to the second port. Satechi has other adapters that support 4K 60Hz. Yes, it heats up decently, but technical support on the manufacturer's website confirms that this is the norm.

Pros
  • - Convenient (subjectively) format. - Required minimum ports - PD up to 60W (for version v1 up to 49W)
Cons
  • - 4K@30Hz
