Cheap Junk - Computer Accessories & Peripherals

I work from home due to Covid-19 and use my company laptop. It doesn't have a VGA port, so I needed an adapter to connect a larger monitor. The VGA cable barely fits into the adapter, and every time the laptop was moved away from simple typing, the connection would be lost. The problem might be that the holes in the adapter aren't deep enough, I actually had to insert the VGA connector into the adapter and then hold it in for it to work. Duct tape is needed to securely attach them to each other. The adapter has no threaded holes to attach them together. But the problems don't end there. The picture quality was terrible, everything on the monitor had a green cast, all the clarity that computers provide was gone, everything was fuzzy and hard on the eyes. The reason I got the adapter was to make it easier to work with a large monitor rather than a small laptop screen, but the picture quality on the monitor was so poor I couldn't use it. If you think it might be a monitor, it won't be. The monitor is only a few months old, connected to my PC and works perfectly. It was the cheapest adapter on Revain and I got what I paid for, cheap junk.
