Yes, a screen’s HDMI can go to USB-C… with a dongle. Am I guaranteed the upstairs conference room will have one? Nope, better pack the dongle. USB drives, USB

Yes, a screen’s HDMI can go to USB-C… with a dongle. Am I guaranteed the upstairs conference room will have one? Nope, better pack the dongle.
USB drives, USB headphone/mic adapter, the list goes on and on. I’m not saying it has to bother you but it does me.
- threeseed 8y agoYou can buy USB-C enclosures off eBay for like $10. And the MacBooks have a 3.5mm headphone/microphone adapter.
- closetohome 8y agoAnd when the MacBook had HDMI I had to carry dongles for VGA and DisplayPort. One person's native format is another's required adapter.
- mclehman 8y agoSure, but HDMI and mini-DisplayPort covered my needs pretty well without adapters. Was it perfect? No. Was it usually enough? Yes.
