Review on Kensington LD5400T Thunderbolt Universal K33476NA by Kenji Townsend

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Damn Displayport issues

It was great. Unless you wanted to connect more than one monitor. Using the USB-C HDMI adapter for my first external monitor went smoothly. The problem started when I tried to use the DisplayPort connector that this thing uses. I couldn't get ANY DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to work with it. I know the port works because I connected a monitor from another computer that had a display port and it worked so-so (you MUST reboot before it recognizes the new monitor, which is annoying). Kensington wanted me to buy their DisplayPort to HDMI converter for a lot of money, but that adds about fifty bucks and the only other solution is to buy a brand new monitor for this system. No thank you. Sorry guys I'll be returning it and buying something else that doesn't require me to spend an arm and a leg and a lot of time to get started.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
