BUY THIS! Don't buy an Apple Key!

First impressions are that this adapter is just as good, if not BETTER, than its Apple counterpart. This adapter is actually made out of some sort of metal (aluminum?) and appears to be of a higher quality than Apple's. My Macbook Pro can capture my monitor's native 1080p resolution, while other adapters I've tried can't keep up. I've noticed that when charging my laptop through this dongle, the monitors flicker when the power cord is unplugged. It's like losing connection to the monitor, but the display comes right back, so it's not that big of a problem. That doesn't happen with the Apple adapter though, so it's worth mentioning. Disclaimer: I have not fully verified the power cord connection through this adapter. If I have trouble charging through this adapter I will update this review. BUT even with the Apple adapter I've had issues with my laptop when it's heavily loaded losing charge even when plugged in and using an 87w charger so I'll only upgrade it if it turns out that the charging connector is worse than the Apple adapter. My Macbook Pro has burned other 3rd party keys in the past. It is burned via 2 HDMI adapters from Anchor.

Pros
  • Computer cable adapter
Cons
  • Big and chunky
