FOINNEX VGA to HDMI Adapter Cable With Audio, Convert PC to TV/Monitor 1080P, Active Male Lead for Computer, Projector, 6FT/1.8M

Works okay.

I bought this to play content from my tablet, via the laptop on to my TV as the Google Chrome proved to be pretty useless for this function. After getting to grips with so many cables; finding the right one for each appliance, the results were great. It's worth noting that it also allows the audio to be heard. There are some cable sets that do not. All-in-all a worthy purchase.

Windows 7 was a plug and play. No problems what so ever. With the older Windows, it was a blank screen. I originally thought I had broken it but when I tried the newer computer, it worked perfectly.

Very nice product. Plug in, switch on, it works. Nice to have the option on this unit to send the audio up the HDMI cable so the TV can play the sound without any extra connectors. If you'd rather have the sound coming out of the laptop or going into headphones - that's no problem either, just leave the dongle's audio cable unconnected. Plenty of cable on the audio and USB connector too, they haven't skimped. Super-impressed with the picture as well, flawlessly displayed on my 4K LG OLED TV. Really wanted this product so we can view family on the Skype screen via the big TV screen instead of just on the laptop, this is perfect for lockdown meetings!

Great convertor/cable and does exactly what it claims too, basically converts a VGA analogue signal to digital via HDMI, the USB provides power and 3.5mm jack supplies the audio, the audio & USB cables convieniently split off the VGA connector. The HDMI cables roughly measures 1.8m, the audio & USB roughly measure around 12 inces off the main cable and all have gold connectors. I use it to stream NFL games off my laptop and connect it to my large 52" plasma TV and it works fine. Supports up to 1080 HD. Remember this is a VGA - HDMI convertor only and is not backward compatible. You need to know exacly what you want to use it for before buying, if you want HDMI to VGA you'll need a different cable. Can't fault it!!

Unfortunately we had to send the product back as it did not fit our laptop. It may be that we are simply not up to speed with modern technology (well, we're certainly not!) - but the problem was that we assumed that a USB3 was the average USB port on a laptop, whereas in fact it is much smaller. It may have helped us if the text alongside the picture had explained what a USB3 was - and also if the photo had made it look more obviously smaller than it did.

Not really into writing reviews too much, but quick comment that this is an excellent product. I have a DELL which 360 and a monitor that is HDMI and blue D-PIN (VGA) The blue D-PIN (VGA) stopped working, so I bought this to see if it would work and it worked. I read the review by someone who explained it quite well, He sounded convince and now I am convince. So I can keep my DELL and my 32 inch Panasonic TV that I use as a monitor. If you looking for the same solution then take this one its good.

I cursed this item when first installed, as there was just a blank screen. However after some fiddling it looks like I hadn't pushed the VGA plug into the socket on my aging PC firmly enough, as it sprung to life. The object of the exercise was to check the quality of the picture on my 42" HDR telly compared to my 1360x768 monitor. Result - tiny text was harder to read on the TV, but of course I couldn't tell whether this was because of the shortcomings of the plasma screen or the adapter cable. With less demanding material, such as displaying holiday snaps on your TV, the adapter should be fine.Whether it is worth the money is hard to say, as I don't know what's inside it or how technically challenging it is to do the conversion. The fact that it requires a 5V supply from a spare USB output implies that it contains an active circuit rather than a few jumper wires, so I guess it depends on how much you want what it does.
