Review on πŸ”Œ HypeDrive Mac USB C Hub Adapter: 8-in-2 Dongle for MacBook Pro 2020-2016 & MacBook Air - Thunderbolt 3, 100W PD, 4K HDMI, SD Card Reader, and More! by Josh Schaefer

Just what I needed for the 2019 MacBook Air and 2010 LED movie screen

If you've been looking for something to connect your MacBook Air to an old style LED movie screen, this is the product just right for you! I bought 4 different keys and none of the keys I bought worked. Apparently, the USB-C chipset can't properly convert videos through the Mini DisplayPort. With all the dongles I've bought I haven't been able to get the maximum resolution of 1200x700. I've been using the workaround for a few days and am using the HDMI port for the mini display, but even with this fix, the LED Cinema Display wouldn't wake up when I wake up my MacBook Air (I like using both monitors together). In any case, everything works great! I even bought a Magsafe to USB-C adapter to get all the utilities out of the monitor. So thankful I finally got what I needed!

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • So far so good
