The product works as advertised, but so do the USB-C ports.

Product works as advertised however the USB-C connectors are too loose and do not require repositioning of the cable or else the signal will be lost. This is more of a port issue than the product itself.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • So far so good

Connect a new laptop to old displays

I tested this on my Dell XPS 13 and it worked. My 23" Dell Ultrasharp monitor looked as good as it gets with SVGA. I mention this because if your monitor has multiple interfaces like mine, SVGA doesn't look as sharp as some other more modern interfaces. This particular Dell monitor is several years old and has both SVGA and DVI-D interfaces. DVI-D is noticeably cleaner than SVGA, but SVGA is still very good and usable. This is not the fault of this interface key. To be expected due to…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons

Good for computer accessories and peripherals

This USB-C/VGA adapter is suitable for connecting laptops to projectors or monitors with VGA connections. The adapter has a USB-C connector on one end and a standard USB connector on the other (with screw holes on the frame to tighten the connection when you want to use it). The two ends are connected with a 4" cable. To use the adapter, plug one end into your computer's USB-C port. Then connect a standard VGA cable to the other end and connect that cables to your projector or monitor. I really

Pros
  • Great variety
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Broke after two uses!

I used this product twice before it failed. I bought it under warranty but I don't have the time or energy to look into it. I'm giving it back and will invest in a brand I trust.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Many things

Works well, fits well

I have had no problems with this adapter, it is well compatible with the projection systems I have used it with. Although I've also moved on from using PowerPoint when teaching to using blackboards/whiteboards or repeating things verbally and with exercises or worksheets. So I don't use the adapter very often anymore.

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
