Review on πŸ”Œ HDMI to VGA Cable, Benfei 2 Pack 6 Feet Male to Male - Compatible with PC, Monitor, Projector, HDTV, and More! by Robert Blair

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not dual monitor cable

The cable (per se) does not allow you to connect two Dell XPS 15 HDMI monitors to one Dell VGA monitor. Others who are more knowledgeable can suggest alternatives, add-ons, etc. But with cable alone, the XPS 15 doesn't see (recognize) the secondary monitor, even as it extends the main display. If the goal is just to duplicate the display on another, larger(?) screen, this will work. Also, these comments may not apply to other laptops, operating systems, etc. There are likely workarounds to make the digital side VGA compatible, although image quality will most likely suffer anyway.

Pros
  • SUPERIOR STABILITY - Built-in advanced IC chip converts HDMI digital signal to VGA analog signal; This is NOT a bi-directional converter and cannot pass VGA to HDMI signals
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options
