Review on UPTab USB C DisplayPort Adapter Silver by Tim Airy

This is an overview of using the Uptake adapter with the Mini DisplayPort version of the Apple monitor. NOT the THUNDERBOLT version. The monitor cable consists of 3 parts: 1) Mini DisplayPort monitor (MDP), which is included in the UpTab adapter. The UpTab adapter then plugs into one of the USB-C ports on the MacBookPro. 2) The monitor's USB port is connected to another USB to USB-C adapter that I purchased separately. It then connects to another USB-C port on the MacBookPro. 3) The cable for charging the monitor from a computer is NOT USED. You still need the power adapter that came with your computer. I use the monitor with the MacBookPro closed, but you can also use it as an extended monitor with the MacBookPro open. Pros: Monitor's iSight cameras work for FaceTime/Zoom etc. Monitor audio works well. Monitors have 3 USB ports. Monitor sleeps and wakes up as expected. Cons: Hard to justify buying a new monitor! :-) In general I am satisfied. At $38 for this adapter and $9 for another adapter, I was able to put off buying the $1299 LG UltraFine 5K display. Hope that helps.
