Not dual monitor cable

The cable (per se) does not provide dual monitor capability for a Dell XPS 15 HDMI to a Dell VGA monitor. Others who are more knowledgeable can suggest alternatives, add-ons, etc. But with cable alone, the XPS 15 doesn't see (recognize) the secondary monitor, even as it extends the main display. If the goal is just to duplicate the display on another, larger(?) screen, this will work. Also, these comments may not apply to other laptops, operating systems, etc. There are likely workarounds to make the digital side VGA compatible, although image quality will most likely suffer anyway.

Pros
  • Computer cable adapter
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
