Review on πŸ”Œ Cable Matters Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter with VGA and DVI - Black 3-in-1 Converter for Thunderbolt 2 and Thunderbolt - Supports 4K Resolution via HDMI by Greg Muiznieks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Provides a legacy amplified VGA connection to an LCD projector on my computer where I couldn't otherwise connect directly

and the only laptop connection on the front is VGA. My computer has a VGA port (which usually works fine when connected to VGA) but in this room most laptops don't see the projector when trying to use that VGA. (I suspect the VGA amp/splitter they have in this room is out of spec). Anyhow, this port seems to be able to handle that out of spec VGA, allowing me to use my computer's Thunderbolt connection instead and finally use my laptop in that room. Also, I've also used it as Thunderbolt to HDMI and it works great with my computer. In addition, I have also used it as a Thunderbold to HDMI for NETGEAR Push2TV NETGEAR Push2TV HDMI Wireless Display Adapter with Miracast (PTV3000), which is certified for use with the Kindle Fire HDX Screen Cast Box for tablet screencasting in the classroom . (We all have these "smart" classes, but they haven't been updated in many years).

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Available in white only
