Does exactly what it is meant to do!

I am on my second Benfei Mini DisplayPort to VGA connector. I now have two monitors connected to my Surface Pro dock and they both work flawlessly! I decided on another Benfei product because the other worked well, and my other cable from a competitor only worked intermittently. Thank you Benfei for a quality product at a great price!

Pros
  • The only complaint I have is the bolt is too big but work ok
Cons
  • Requires an additional VGA cable for use with some monitors

Great Value for the money

Excellent product and gets the job done: connected a thin client DELL WYSE 5070 to a DELL monitor. Recommended! 000107black-2p.

Pros
  • 000107black-2p
Cons
  • May not support resolutions above 1080p

Good cable! - my new review

This cable allowed me to connect my Apple Mac book pro (or a PC), using a Thunderbolt connector, to output the video directly to a digital source, like a Projector, or in my case a large screen. It works perfectly and is plug and play meaning there are no settings to set. With this plug if you want the sound too you need an audio plug as well I used a mini headphone plug to my Bose speaker.

Pros
  • Cables & Interconnects
Cons
  • May not work with some external graphics cards

Works as advertised

My mac mini acts weird with HDMI connection to the monitor for some reason. Used this instead and it works flawlessly. If there is a picture quality difference between this and HDMI, I can't tell for the basic web surfing and video watching we do.

Pros
  • Works great on my MacBook Air 2014.
Cons
  • May not support color calibration

Works for Mackbook 2015!

I needed a cord to work with my 2015 Macbook air to connect to my Vankyo mini projector and it worked great! Doesn't connect the audio though. You would need a Bluetooth speaker for the, but overall works perfectly!

Pros
  • It's working fine using the VGA port on Dell P2211HT monitor to my MacBook Pro.
Cons
  • Cable may become loose during use and result in signal loss

Works with Mac Air for my opinion

I decided to work with a big screen and this cable is what I needed to connect my 2014 Mac air to my 27" screen. Connection was easy and really easy to set up. Now I just need a wireless keyboard and I'm all set.

Pros
  • BENFEI
Cons
  • May not support the use of certain external adapters or converters

Had difficulty reading the small print on my surface. Attaching the monitor resolved the issues. Works great. That's my review!

Pros
  • Worked great to connect my mid-2014 Macbook to my HP monitor.
Cons
  • 2 pack may be unnecessary for some users

Highly recommend good for me

This is definitely easy to use if you are bot tech savvy. I’m glad I replaced my old cable with this cable. The picture and connectivity is sharp and smooth.

Pros
  • 2 PACK
Cons
  • May not be easy to find replacement parts for

Worked as advertised

For the price, the value of this cable is outstanding. I have it in a 3 monitor setup and the cables are all nicely tucked in together. Why does that matter to me? I didn't see any interference on the monitor that is using this cable and it also happens to be the furthest from the computer. That means it is near all kinds of potential interference just about the entire route from the computer. Excellent quality and I would certainly trust Benfei again for another cable in the future.

Pros
  • Works as intended. Easy to setup
Cons
  • May require drivers to be installed for some devices

Works great on my review.

Needed this to make a work laptop docking station function with my multi-screen setup at home. Works great, simple to install.

Pros
  • Works without issue. If I knew it was this easy to get extra screens I would have done it years ago.
Cons
  • May not work with all versions of MacBooks or Surface Pros

Works with a Surface Pro 6

I got this to connect a second monitor (Dell) to the docking station for my Surface Pro 6. I have been using it for a few months with no issues. I will update this review if anything changes.

Pros
  • Cables & Accessories
Cons
  • May not be reliable in long-term use

Be careful with compatibility

Be very careful when ordering. It advertises as compatible for MacBook airs when it is not. Not happy with this product.

Pros
  • Works as expected. I've used it everyday for multiple months, and it continues to get the job done.
Cons
  • Not ideal for gaming or video streaming

Good Cable that worked!

I didn't know if my problem was with an old cable, the monitor or a laptop docking station. This is just a cable but it worked and fixed my problem. Also delivery was very fast.

Pros
  • Male-to-Male
Cons
  • May not support some older models of MacBook or Surface Pro
