Few years back I had a MacBook pro 2019 and an old ultra wide LG screen with resolution 25:9 and HDMI only input. Apparently, official Apple's USB to HDMI connector cannot handle screen resolution 2560*1080 at that time.
Thing that was possible at 300$ windows laptop cannot be done on 2500$ machine with 60$ connector.
- nine_k 3y agoBecause if you agreed to pay $2500 anyway, you can agree to pay for an upgrade! Apple is in the business of selling you hardware, specifically premium hardware. Think car dealership.
- ponector 3y agoAnd Dell is not in that business? Or Lenovo? People agree to pay ridiculous prices for memory or apple connectors - why not to charge them maximum?
- filoleg 3y agoI had a 2019 MBP, and it worked fine with my LG 5K ultrawide at full resolution (5120x2160). I would check your HDMI cable (not all hdmi cables support the resolutions you want), but mine worked perfectly fine using a USB-C thunderbolt 3 cable, as well as an USB-C to DisplayPort cable.
