Doesn't work - Accessories and supplies

The second cable I bought to try and connect my Pixel 4 or Pixel 4a phones so I can watch movies on my phone on my tv on wheels with no internet or network can view. This one didn't work either. The latter at least said it doesn't work with Pixel phones. In the description of this product, 2 users specifically stated that it works with their Pixel phones. Well mine didn't work.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Great price

Worked for 2 months until it stopped working.

I am a student and used this cable to connect my laptop to a second monitor. Since I almost always work at my desk, I have made good use of this cable so far. The cable stopped working 2 months after purchase. I have confirmed this by trying to connect to a different monitor and plugging different cables into my laptop's ports. I was very disappointed that after 2 months it stopped working.

Pros
  • Free for Education
Cons
  • Repair

Doesn't work with at least two devices

I got it for a laptop for an external display but it didn't work. Tried another laptop, doesn't work either. Then used an iPad and it worked. The only difference I can think of is that my iPad has Thunderbolt and my laptops have regular USB-C. However, since the name says it's USB-C (and Thunderbolt compatible), I figured it would work. It should have a better name like Thunderbolt to HDMI.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Functionality

TERRIBLE ERROR for accessories and consumables

Of course, this cable allows me to connect my iPad 11 Pro to an HDMI monitor, but the sound doesn't come through. Who in their right mind would make a cable that wouldn't let sound through? When I discovered this I was out the window to go back. Apple Support says this often happens with third-party cables. So I'm mad at Apple for all their proprietary stuff and mad at the maker of this cable for not claiming it's a video only cable.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Just doesn't work with my Macbook Pro

I'm trying to run two 27 inch 2560x1440 screens from a new MBP. The second monitor kept dimming. I've since switched to a couple of regular HDMI cables with UNI USB-C to HDMI converters and both screens work great. The size of the HDMI adapter was also an issue, it's huge so it didn't really fit in the HDMI port on the G-Sync monitor because it kept messing up the monitor body.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine

Totally unexpected result with this adapter and my Samsung S10

I was expecting this adapter to display my phone on my external monitor as I bought it to pair with the Feelworld FW279 7- Inch monitor to use the DJI Osmo Action to watch videos. The Osmo Action doesn't have a video output, but it can be viewed on my phone via the DJI app. I had two options for outputting my phone to the monitor. 1) Use a Miracast device. . Miracast works but requires USB power. Some 7" monitors have power out, but the FW279 doesn't, so I needed an HDMI to USB-C cable THAT WAS

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Just won't work with my Macbook Pro

I'm trying to run two 27" 2560x1440 screens on a new MBP. I have a G-sync monitor that kept crashing with these cables and a second monitor. kept flickering randomly. I've since switched to a couple of regular HDMI cables with UNI USB-C to HDMI converters and both screens work great. Also the size of the HDMI adapter was an issue, it's gigantic and doesn't really fit in the HDMI port on the G-Sync monitor as it keeps dirtying the monitor case.

Pros
  • Video cable
Cons
  • disappear

Does not work with Surface Dock

I purchased this particular product in part because of the Revain Choice attribute and the 1 foot length was perfect for my application. I wanted to attach the Surface Dock to the back of the monitor. Although it seemed to work at first, the screen would intermittently reset or flicker as if there was a problem with the signal. It happened every minute or so. I issued a return and asked for a replacement or something as I expected mine would just be defective. The replacement did the same…

Pros
  • Audio Video Accessories
Cons
  • Other Other

Totally unexpected result with this adapter and my Samsung S10

I was expecting this adapter to mirror my phone on my external monitor since I bought it to work with the Feelworld 7 inch monitor FW279 to use video with DJI Osmo Action. The Osmo Action does not have a video output, but it can be viewed on my phone via the DJI app. I had two options for outputting my phone to the monitor. 1) Use a Miracast device. 2) Use HDMI to USB-C cable.

Pros
  • Cables and Connections
Cons
  • Big and bulky
