Ready on Arrival: Computer Accessories and Peripherals

I've tried different connections and/or cables but this unit shows no signs of life. Displays "no input". There isn't even an LED to signal the presence of power on the device.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Slightly Torn

It didn't work until I got the extra USB-C cable

What the name says annoys me that nowhere on their official websites has Wacom said I need this version of Wacom Link to 2019 version from Mobile Studio Pro, which prompted me to purchase 2 Wacom links and an additional cable.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Works great for a one cord solution.

I was fed up with THREE cables coming from my Cintiq Pro 16 and this was a great solution. I still have the power, USB, and mini-display cables as my MacBook Pro doesn't have USB-C ports. But now just ONE cable comes with the Cintiq Pro 16 and it's MUCH BETTER!

Pros
  • Like everyone else so far
Cons
  • not reliable

Great for computer accessories and peripherals

I used to use a graphics card with a USB-C connector. After getting rid of the card, I had no way of connecting my Cintiq Pro to my computer. I lost my original Plus link and needed a replacement. This one works great. Too expensive for an adapter. But I won't call for that. He does what he has to do.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Very expensive

Works on Wacom MSPro 16.

I was afraid it wouldn't work on Wacom MSPro 16 but it works. I didn't have to download any files when I plugged it in, so I believe they were updated a long time ago to make it work. I've heard others say it won't work when it first comes out. I guess they fixed it. I play on my Nin Switch because I wanted to see how good it would look with mClassic combined with gaming and movie cables. I am very happy with the results. I thought the price was spot on the last time I checked it was over $100…

Pros
  • handsfree
Cons
  • disappears

Doesn't work well for graphics tablets

I'm sure it would have worked fine but mine came in, could not be recognized by my desktop or MobileStudio Pro 16. This could be a problem due to mishandling, it can easily break a small thing, I'm not sure. Either by delivery or by yourself or both. I've read that such keys break easily anyway. That would be a pretty important part of my new workbench, but since it doesn't work out of the box, I can't recommend something like this. . It would have been much cheaper to buy a dedicated USB-C…

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Some bugs

READ FIRST: Finally! HDMI to USB-C Converter! Using a USB-C monitor with a 4K touchscreen and Nvidia GPU.

Some of you may have heard of VirtualLink, the standard for controlling displays with a single cable? Spring. which died in the bud in August 2019, as did manufacturer support (except for a few laptops here and there), although there are plenty of USB-C displays on the market. Finding a desktop solution was nearly impossible. Then I discovered this (and thank goodness it's still in production, unlike Sunix solutions for example). Here's what this box has enabled me to do: -> HDMI from PC to…

Pros
  • Good looks
Cons
  • Security
