This can damage the port, so the cable on this model adds a lot of durability to the whole system. When you’ve got a long adapter plugged directly into your HDMI port, you’re putting a lot of pressure on it. Although they aren’t quite as compact as solid models, there are some significant advantages. Personally, we’re a fan of these cable style adapters.

This adds a lot more rigidity than most models have. It’s well designed, and built inside of a plastic enclosure. Even when bent or twisted, it doesn’t allow the wires inside to get torqued beyond their natural range of motion.Īnother advantage of this adapter is the port where you plug in your VGA cable. It’s one of those modern flat HDMI cables, and it’s very well insulated. For starters, the cable is extremely durable. We are more than impressed with the build quality of UGREEN’s HDMI to VGA adapter. One of the standout features of this model is that the coloring retains a lot of it’s vibrancy, making it a great choice for video or rich media. But these kinds of changes are to be expected with analog video. You do notice a small change in the chroma keying, which results in a minor color shift. But with this model, the signal was still quite clear. With inexpensive hardware, you notice a lot of noise and distortion at high resolutions. The ICs used in this chipset are very high quality, and this shows from the video signal. This allows you to get audio no matter how your video source is configured, giving you a huge advantage. If it detects an audio signal, it will output that through the analog port. There is a 3.5mm audio jack built right into the adapter. But if you don’t have that ability, this adapter has you covered. Best case scenario, you’ll be able to change the audio output to your 3.5mm output. This can create problems for people using an adapter. Unfortunately, VGA doesn’t support audio. It’s becoming increasingly common for video sources to output audio through HDMI. By adding this adapter into your chain, you’ll be able to properly convert digital video. This means that most converters on the market don’t actively convert the digital DVI signal to VGA. DVI, in some circumstances, can support analog video. You can go from DVI to HDMI, then use this adapter for the HDMI to DVI portion of the conversion. You’re also able to daisy-chain these adapters when necessary. This means that your brand new 4K hardware won’t work, but everything else under the sun will work. It supports resolutions up to 1080p, and the only thing not supported is HDCP 2.2.
