Review on UPGROW Cable MacBook ChromeBook UPGROWCMHM4 by Gerald Reeves

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with computer accessories and peripherals

It works great with my Dell WD19 Dock (not ThunderBolt) as a second monitor but as I already have 2 monitors connected to the displayports I was hoping to use it. for a third monitor instead of the old VGA DisplayLink adapter. My non-TB and non-TB laptop doesn't meet the specs to properly connect a 3rd monitor (the highest resolution offered as a 3rd monitor was 1440x576, it originally came with it as a 2nd monitor or primary monitor 1920x1080). Same results as if I tried running it from the WD19's native HDMI port. Back to the DisplayLink adapter/driver until I can get my laptop and TB dock. I think I could try the usb2hdmi DisplayLink adapter but not at these prices. The cable and connectors feel solid, not cheap. I tested it with my Samsung S20+ and it immediately showed up as a DEX display with no issues other than complaining that it's not an official Samsung DEX dock. I leave the cable for DEX and other uses.
