No DVI signal. Had to return 2 of these and will not buy again.

I bought this adapter 3 times. They all look the same, but the old version had the "Getlink" logo. The new version with no logo is either a bad copy or an overpriced product as it does not output a DVI signal. The same monitors work fine with the old version. DisplayPort worked (didn't test HDMI and VGA), but not DVI.

Pros
  • COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT - Measuring 8.2 x 5.1 x 0.6 inches and weighing just 0.6 ounces, it's ultra-portable.
Cons
  • High price

good key; No setup issues; just worked!

Bought primarily to connect a Dell monitor with display port to my new Lenovo laptop. Easy. Just plugged in the monitor and plugged the dongle into my computer. No special setup required - just worked. One note: I tried using two ports at the same time (a DisplayPort monitor and an HDMI monitor) and only one of them was recognized. Apparently two monitors cannot be used at the same time. Not a problem for me as my laptop has a built in HDMI port.

Pros
  • FULLY COMPATIBLE - Compatible with USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) Alternate Mode DP devices with USB 3.1 Type-C port, such as New 2017 MacBook, Google Chromebook Pixel, Lenovo Yoga 900 13-inch, Dell XPS 13-inch 9350, Dell XPS 15 inch 9550 etc
Cons
  • Doubtful

Not enough ports, best in USB to VGA adapters

It works fine but I wish I hadn't bought it. Compared to other adapters in the same price range, this one offers too few connectivity options and they are all display-oriented. I've since bought one with a more complete set of inputs and outputs. So the star rating is really more about me than the product. I recommend thinking about any connections you might need that the new MacBooks don't have (hell!) before deciding to buy this product or any other USB-C expansion port.

Pros
  • ALL-IN-ONE 4-IN-1 SOLUTION - Getlink adapter provides USB-C to VGA/DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort conversion.
Cons
  • Something else
