Review on πŸ”Œ Industrial Electrical Multi-Display Adapter Converter for Chromebook Projector by Jim Reinhardt

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The (almost) perfect solution!

I am a software developer and wanted to have a third monitor with my laptop to make it easier to work on different projects, browse multiple web pages, open multiple Word documents, etc. This product is flawless! My computer only has one HDMI output, so I can only connect one display. I had a VGA display so I used this product to connect it. Installation: It was very easy. Make sure you download the driver from the website in the description before plugging it in as it probably won't work without it. Once you've done that, things will mostly go smoothly. When I first plugged it in, it didn't auto-switch to 1080 x 1920 and the display settings were a bit odd. After adjusting the display settings, restarting the computer, disconnecting and reconnecting, there were no problems. Also, I noticed that it's a bit slower than my built-in display or my HDMI-connected display. It's registered for 60Hz, but you can feel the slightest mouse lag even if you can't see it. It's a product, not my display, but it's definitely not a deal breaker, and if it's your only option to connect another display, it's still worth it. What you should know before you buy: Make sure the drivers work on your computer before you buy. buy, it would be unfortunate if they didn't. Make sure you have a USB 3.0 port. This connects to USB 2.0, but since 2.0 is a lot slower, the display looks a lot worse and it can't even run at 1080 x 1920. I'm not sure if the adapter supports audio since my display doesn't have speakers, but I've heard rumors that these things don't have audio. You may want to just use a standard HDMI cable if you're connecting to a TV for viewing and listening.
