It's not hell. One type C to HDMI dongle. I use one.
- vladvasiliu 5y agoEven better: there are type-c to HDMI cables, no dongle at all.
- maxbaines 5y agoI should have been clearer, it would be really nice to just have one single USB C lead from my laptop to a monitor for video and PD. Overall I am happy with USB C. Having a laptop with many cable's connected for me defeats the object hence me looking at desktops.
- dont__panic 5y agoSounds like a prime use case for a dock or one of those multiport dongles. What's holding you back?
- maxbaines 5y agoAs above I am trying to avoid multiple cable's in the laptop, be ideal to have just one USB C for HDMI and PD, A laptop with a load of cables in it for me defeats the object, at that point I may as well use a Desktop.
- tomjen3 5y agoI Displayport and power over a single USB-C with my Dell U2720Q. I would recommend a longer cable than the one provided if you want your computer to connect to a usb-c on side that doesn't face the monitor.
- dont__panic 4y agoInteresting. I use a single TB3 cable connected to my Caldigit TS3+ to connect: - dual 4k60hz monitors - keyboard - mouse - webcam - microphone - ethernet - ... other miscellaneous things I'm forgetting One cable, dock setup. I guess I don't understand how a dock would force you to use multiple cables, since that's what they're supposed to help prevent?
