BENFEI USB C to DVI Adapter, Type-C to DVI Adapter [Thunderbolt 3/4 Compatible] with iPhone 15 Pro/Max, MacBook Pro/Air 2023, iPad Pro, iMac, S23, XPS 17, Surface Book 3 and More - Grey

I had the older Apple monitor boxed up and with this adapter I was able to used it again on a newer Mac mini., Works perfectly.

This adapter is so cheap compared to the price of the ones in stores! I needed one of these to connect my old Cintique monitor to my new MacBook and this works great. I haven't had any connection issues and have been using it daily for over a week. I haven't been unplugging the DVI from the adaptor and just left it screwed on. I think constantly removing the adaptor may cause issues but it's not a problem for me. The adaptor isn't cheap feeling and feels like my old Apple branded adaptor.

I've been using a no-name USB C to VGA adapter from my Macbook Pro M1 to my 10 year old 20" HP S2031 for over a year. I finally got tired of the low resolution and intermittent blinking, and planned to buy a new monitor. As a last resort I tried this BENFEI USB C to DVI Adapter and IT LOOKS GREAT. I was quite surprise and am extremely happy with the result. I even lowered the resolution for my normal typing and searches and will increase it for my video editing and photo work. I figure it saved me at least $150. I'm extremely please. I highly recommend it. With free returns, how can you go wrong?

Four stars because this dongle doesn't have the best shielding. It caused a lot of wifi and bluetooth interference with my Macbook Pro 2018 when I first used it. The fix was wrapping this with foil - looks really silly but it works! It's a known issue with the Macbook Pro 2018 that some USB-C dongles with poor shielding will cause issues, especially if you are on a 2.5 ghz wifi band. The Apple branded adapters don't cause interference, but Apple does not make a USB-C adapter for a DVI port - I guess it's too old school for them :) When I first bought it, I could not figure out why the connection was so poor to my still thriving HP monitor (display flickering, would lose connection often) and why my internet and bluetooth connection was so choppy (mouse, keyboard, and Airpods would often disconnect - first world problems, I know). I was just about to go on a tirade to xfinity about my internet when I did some research and found out that this was a known issue with Macbook Pro 2018. One helpful forum suggested a silly fix to wrap foil around the adapter. I chuckled at the thought of tinfoiling something (flashing to the tinfoil hat scene with Joaquin Phoenix in Signs) but I figured this was a cheaper solution than replacing my old monitor. So I grabbed some foil and made sure to wrap the entire adaptor in foil and VOILA - solution worked! No issues with bluetooth, internet was solid, and all was well. All in all, great product since it's hard to find a solid adapter for USB-C to DVI. It hasn't failed me since the foil fix.

Bought this to drive a 1080p monitor from an Asus UX501VW higher-end laptop. I was already using up the HDMI video out port on the side of the laptop, but wanted to use a second external monitor that had a DVI connector. Rather than find a USB 3.0 Type A video adapter, I got this one that uses the Thunderbolt 3 / USB 3.0/3.1 Type C port. I didn't have to do a thing for it to just work. No drivers, no fiddling. Just plugged it in and it worked. True to advertising, it feels relatively high quality, and I think the Type C plug and the body of the adapter are aluminum, and if not, it feels like it. They're the same colour as my brushed aluminum laptop casing, so I'm happy aesthetically. The cable that connects the DVI adapter to the Type C plug is a bit stiff, but I expect it will soften up over time, as computer cables tend to do. It also looks like a lot of factory Mac products, so anyone with a Mac laptop would probably like the aesthetic too. No flickering, used it with two different 1080p monitors, and I'm happy so far. Good value. One of the least expensive products of its type that I found. Would definitely buy it again and I'd recommend it to anyone.

I have a 2008 Apple Cinema Display that I picked up locally for 40 bucks, in the hope that I could use it as a monitor for a Mac Mini I purchased about four years ago. It worked well then, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it also allowed me to connect a new M3 Macbook Pro to the same monitor with no issues. I have used this item regularly for the past couple of years and have had no issues at all. It's well-built, insanely cheap, and gets the job done!

this cable works except it's missing a critical feature that perhaps not many customers even know about but is also critical for my setup. Most cables and video cards supports this thing called DDC/CI, where you can change the brightness and other settings of your monitor remotely directly via a slider on your operating system. This is super useful at night to change the brightness down for all your external monitors for instance. For whatever reason, the manufacturers of these maybe to save cost either block this signal or completely cut the pins so that the signal doesn't reach the monitor. I had to buy an alternative from a more reputable brand to get it working.

Works great for old monitors

Jag baserade mitt köp på recensionerna här och YES! Tusen tack till er som har också köpt/testat och skrivit sedan här.. Benfei fungerar ypperligt hos mig. Jag kopplade ihop min gamla skärm som är ACD 20" (aluminium modell) med MacBook Pro late 2018 15" och har egentligen två skärmar kopplade. Min stora 34" curved LG som är kopplad med HDMI till en 12 South USB-hub och denna tar upp en port på laptopen. ACD 20" koppla alltså direkt till datorn. De ser varandra och jag hanterar appfönster utan problem.

Perfecto. Funciona con mi pantalla antigua.

Ideal pour rendre vie à un apple cinema display de 24" vers un macbook air M3 usbc dans sa résolution native 1920 X 1200. Attention ne fonctionne pas avec le apple cinema display de 30"

Très pratique pour brancher un deuxième écran sur son PC portable. Le port HDMI sur le premier écran externe, le second sur l'USB-C. Simple, ça marche tout seul. Il faut juste configurer l'affichage des écrans sur Windows pour que la souris se balade logiquement entre les écrans. Pas de saut d'image, ça marche nickel.

Works connecting two older Apple Cinema Display (2 adapters) to Mac MINI M4, better than the HDMI adaptors I tried
