Review on Kensington Multi-Display Adapter with DisplayLink - USB 3.0 (K33974AM) in Black by Michael Morgan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great device! best in notebook accessories

This is a great little device! I've used it in two ways: to connect an LED monitor to my desktop as a second display via USB and also to connect to a laptop. For some reason the laptop couldn't "see" the LCD monitor connected to the VGA port, but it works fine with this adapter connected to the USB port. ALWAYS install the software first. I forgot on the laptop and had to delete what was autoloading when trying to connect and work. Once I removed that and installed as instructed, everything was fine. Windows found the second monitor with no problems but I got confused because I pressed the mouse to the left and it seemed to move to the right (I haven't used 2 monitors before) but swapped the monitors (do number one number two and number two number one) fixed in windows display settings. I definitely recommend this for adding a second monitor and is worth trying if you have compatibility issues like I have on my laptop.

Pros
  • No external power supply required. USB Powered Laptop
Cons
  • Expensive
