BENFEI HDMI to VGA Adapter, Female HDMI Input to Male VGA Output Adapter with 3.5mm Audio Jack Compatible for TV Stick, Computer, Laptop, Monitor, Projector, Raspberry Pi, Roku, Xbox and More - Black

This is my second attempt at hooking up my ipad pro to an old projector with VGA. a USB-C to VGA adapter kind of worked but didn't support HDCP so i couldn't stream prime video to my projector. So this was bought as an alternative with a hdmi to VGA conversion with this cable. It works and I'm watching old episodes of house on amazon prime probably will work with most things with hdmi out, maybe a firestick or google chromecast TV. Update google tv tried to use it with this. Initially it didn’t work for me the 1080p signal which it was set to use by default was too much for my projector , ok on a 1080p 60 monitor. Switching to 720p and reconnecting to the projector it was fine. A nice surprise was it didn’t need external power. Audio was a bit of an issue initially had the audio cable connected to the projector and it initially worked, then stopped so paired it up with a google mini. Increased to 5 stars since the external power is optional The negative usi0g a micro usb cable to power it, shouldn't it be usb C in 2025? I guess it needs power and the same usb C hub i use for the hdmi port built in also supplies the power and im apple to charge with power delivery. It even allowed my SSD drive to be mounted. I did buy prior to this a usb C hub which provided a VGA port, unfortunately it was relatively power heavy and didnt support hdcp. Anyway this device is now going to live on the back of my projector (vintage 2005-2008) and it really is a nice bit of kit. its a stereo output on the 3.5 jack but i could probably run hdmi to an arc hdmi port on a sound bar and then send the video to the projector. seems to have audio and video in sync. 4.5 stars just because of micro usb.

Originally bought the Amazon Basics adapter. It wouldn't work with my Amazon FireStick. After manually configuring the FireStick to 720p rather than 'Auto', I got as far as displaying the very initial FireStick bootscreen before the display would go blank... HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) obviously not supported, so useless for FireSticks or equivalent - return initiated. Found this BenFie option - same conceptual device as the Amazon Basics, and at exactly the same price. It also indicated it supported Roku devices, so I guessed (hoped) it'd also support HDCP and my FireStick... I was not wrong! Plugged in the adapter, along with power and audio, added the FireStick and booted it all up and, Hey Presto!, my old analogue TV with a PC VGA option happily displayed th picture! TV is now working fine. On top of that, the BenFie version is also shipped with a micro-USB cable for power, and an audio cable for sound (the Amazon Basics device has niether of these). Same price, more bits 'n' pieces, and it works! What's not to like! Happy days.

Didn’t realise this would need power, thankfully I had a spare spot in my usb splitter - this was not mentioned in the description. Works well though and saved me buying a whole new screen.

It’s been almost 2 months . This wire is useful asthe HDMI port on my TV broke so this was a good way to connect other devices such as my Amazon fire stick and my laptop to the TV using HDMI cable through the VGA adapter and your able to see everything on the screen. It comes with a audio jack cable which you can connect to your TV or other device and sound will pass through it as well works well in terms of sound and you can see everything clearly the quality is good. The only issue is sometimes the screen the vga is showing does not align with the TV 100% ( E.g., it’s shifted to the side a little bit ) sometimes it takes a little adjusting but apart from that it works great.

I had my son over for the weekend, he baufht his xbox over as usual but the HDMI wasnt working. It had been a bit intermittent for a few weeks. Looked closer this time and the HDMI port had snapped off the circuit board. I was gutted thinking j had to buy a new TV. I did a quick google search to see what i could do and found the idea for this adapter, found this on amazon, ordered it Saturday 12pm it was delivered by 1:30pm Sunday!!!!!!!!! It worked perfectly. As if fits into the VGA port and is screwed in it does feel more durable. Make sure you use the mic adapter supplied for the volume and use on PC/VGA source.

Bought this item to convert a computer monitor into a TV as we no longer had the computer. It was very easy to install just connect to the monitor plug the monitor speakers into it and an amazon firestick and you have amazon TV on your monitor.

Did not work..as soon as plugged in monitor went black??!?

Video quality is pretty shocking, but it does work.
