I’ve used the device for several months since I wanted to have something that didn’t need to be plugged into and up against my mac, but didnt use the HDMI port until recently. I usually use a second monitor for the HDMI port to make music production more seamless but this device doesn’t seem to work at all with the monitor I have. The original device I have that’s build almost the exact same way has never given me any issue although it’s cheaper than this one is.I’m probably out of warranty since I haven’t said anything to the company about it for some time after purchase but it is quite a bummer and I’m wondering if I got a faulty one of if it’s just not recognizing the monitor I have. Will update this review in the future if any of that changes with different tests.Overall, the device works as intended besides the HDMI port and it has a cool pass through power port so I don’t have to worry about one less USB-C port in my mac for power and only one for the device itself. If you’re getting it for uses other than the HDMI port than I highly recommend but can’t justify it for the HDMI use just yet.Build quality is wonderful, chord is a tad short but still manageable, ease of use is easy with how the device is set up, and that’s pretty much it.
