RuthM –
satisfied, product as explained, works great, good price buy
RICHW –
This was exactly what I was looking for. Claire was able to get it. The customer service representative really help me out.
Ebby –
I use this for dual screens and it works perfectly.
Taylor –
Easily adapt your old tech or docking station when it doesn’t have an HDMI port.
SatisfiedCustomer –
Great find. Exactly what I needed. I purchased an HP computer, and I was shocked to discover the USB-C port does not support using an adapter for my second monitor. I decided to try this USB adapter and it worked perfectly! Best Buy essentials are great products at a great price.

I never write reviews..Im neutral but had no choice to choose a rating. Just wanted to save some time for others in case you are looking for what I was so why not.
For people looking to just connect their macbook air to a monitor…just read before purchasing. And i am one of the most indecisive person ever. One bad review will make me redecide if i should get whatever product/thing i am getting. So you can trust this review.
Anyway, I have a Macbook Air 2017 and I needed to connect it to my new HPM27f monitor. Plugged it on my macbook. Didnt work. Neither does it work if you use a USB 3.0 4-port for it.
I just returned it and got the Insignia Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter from Best Buy as well. Now, that works. Enjoy 🙂
I didnt recommend it only cuz it didnt work for me. Doesnt mean the product doesnt work.
GBPackfan –

Great,………………………………………………………………..
Andyj –
The reason I gave one star was that it did not work for me
MelanieC –
I give this product a 2 star rating because I tried to connect my laptop to my pc as a monitor, it didnt work. Now I know that I could’ve done something wrong, but if anyone could help me I would love it. All I need to know is how to set up a windows laptop as a monitor for a hp windows desktop/pc.
katycatliz –
set it up correctly as the instructions stated and did not work
NotJustAnyDad –
Great adapter does exactly what I need it to do and it’s inexpensive.
user122827 –
Worked as advertised. The footprint was bigger than most competing products, but the price was right.
DavidD –
Great display adapter ! 10/10 would happily recommend to family and friends.
Krystal –
It causes the computer to restart randomly only when using it (not what you want during a video call). I tried adding to my RAM, switching monitors as I use it extend my display when needed, and even took my computer to a tech store. They expert told me to change out my adapter as this only happened when I used the adapter. By the time I did all of this, the adapter was out of the return window: so I found out the hard way to avoid this adapter
JoseZ –
Adapter did not work at all I decided to purchase another brand and the other worked perfectly on the first try.
HeavenerL –
It is ok but laggy with first mac book air. Super laggy for me but might work for other
KennyH –

RayM –

Martin –
Very nice. Just what I needed. Easy setup and easy to use. I recommend it
EHarris –
I tried several USB-C HDMI adapters to no avail. Apparently, my computer has a “no video” USB-C (GEN 1) port. Geek squad guy suggested this little adapter. Bought it, plugged it in, connected 2nd monitor and started my computer. VOILA! Two monitors now in working! Can’t believe how easy it was. Picture is clear (only have a 27″ 1080 acer for my second monitor) and flicker free. Would recommend this to anyone that needs a simple plug in solution!
RobbinM –
Works perfectly for what I needed. I needed an additional monitor for my laptop for work. Easy peasy!
GeneC –
Did not work the way it was supposed to. Piece of junk !

Works great. Had to use this Adapter on a Desk Top Processor to HDMI Port on the TV. Connected automatically.
BarryT –
works perfectly! simple device that is reliable. my laptop has no hdmi port, glad this was available!
MoisesD –
Worked wonderfully well! While it didnt work for what initially intended to use it for i managed to use it for something else
Nebraska –
Works great right out of the box! Purchased to replace a piece of junk I bought on Amazon that made me download files (malware?) and never did perform. This one is super simple! Should have went to tech experts to begin with.
Kenney –
This usb-hdmi adapter did not work and had to be returned.
AustinH –
Worked flawlessly for projecting a business project from a laptop. The day of purchase, I just ordered ahead and stopped by for pickup before my meeting.
Scott –
Device work the way we had hoped. Not sure if it was the device or user error
George –
As far as I know this item probably works to use a computer’s USB connector to adapt it for use as an HDMI connector. Unfortunately, I tried it using my Chromebook and it didn’t work. But I have read that this type of application often doesn’t work on a Chromebook.
titosky –
fit my purpose., good material quality. i recommend this product
Chryjohson –
It works out great. It was just what I needed.This plug is perfect.
Unknown –
Inexpensive and easy to use i would recommended using
JamesW –
Overall 5 stars. Straight up a decent product will buy more from this brand.
DavidC –
Works well. My go to place for all my electronic needs.
MarkP –
I bought this adapter to add another HDMI monitor through a USB-C port on my laptop since it only has 1 HDMI port. Unfortunately it didn’t work but it’s because my laptop ports don’t support it. I even went to the Geek Squad to make sure I wasn’t doing anything wrong. I’m sure it would work great on a laptop that supports it based on other reviews.
MichaelK –
Doesn’t link my laptop to my monitor ! Disappointed !
PurpzAKASeth –
This is an excellent USB to HDMI adapter. It allows for smooth visual quality on my second monitor and no issues have showed themselves.
LianeT –
Exactly what we needed to link our tv to our laptop.
Unknown –
very useful adapter. I was able to use this to configure a two-monitor setup for my home office
TiffanyJ –
Works amazing no issues at all. Inexpensive easy to use and set up
WhitneyM –
I’ve been using it for a while and its held up nicely with my laptop and computer screens.
Dirk1907 –
Does exactly what I needed to do, changes one of my USB ports into an HDMI port allowing me to connect an additional monitor to my computer. It was plug and Play, there were no drivers necessary to install. Windows immediately detected it as a HDMI port and there were no issues with connecting my additional monitor.
