27 Inch Monitor Thunderbolt Cable Mac Mini 2011

On my mac mini 2018 with a 4k monitor, I swapped an HDMI to HDMI cable with this thunderbolt to displayport cable. Huge difference! Before, the entire display was sluggish and unresponsive. Now, the picture is sharp, and the UI is smooth and responsive.

A superb Thunderbolt cable from Apple. I use it to connect an Apple Studio Monitor with a Mac Mini M2 Pro. Flawless performance.

This 27 Mac is an upgrade from my 2011 model, a hold lot faster.

My desktop system is a MAC Mini and 27 monitor. With external CD, tiny 1TB drive, Card reader, printer, and backup drive, I ran out of ports. 4 of those could use USB3, so this came in very handy and an inexpensive solution.

Along with a Thunderbolt cable, this cable worked for hooking an older Mac Mini to a recent one with only Thunderbolt 3 ports, for direct data transfer

Along with a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt female cable, this cable allows me to connect an older Mac Mini directly to the latest one, for direct data transfer using the older machine as a target drive

To begin with, anyone who complains about the price has not checked out what the very limited field of competition sells their 27 4k OLED monitor for. This is roughly 1/2 or more the list price of the competition (which has now come down in price to within $600 dollars of this Philips model ~ I wonder why?) & I think it's a better monitor than the life is good people. Note the KVM Switch and the color plate options, plus a huge amount of ports to work with. The stand has a five inch range of motion up and down you can operate with a finger and it has the ability to rotate into portrait mode. That said the image is what will set the hook in for you. Better blacks will not be seen, especially when you turn out all the lights and realize there is no blooming into grays for blacks and those blacks are infinity devoid of light photons. 1080 upscales very well to 4k. But you will get lost in legit 4k content when viewing the Philips 27E1N8900. Forget all the big screens at home or at Lowes cinema and just hunker down in front of this 27 inch guy. I had been waiting for something along these lines for quite a while that had both quality and value to pair with my MacBook Pro in clamshell mode. It accomplishes this via a USB-C cable that both distributes the content from the Mac and powers it at the same time. (The single upgrade I will make will be swapping out the USB-C cable that came with the monitor to a thunderbolt 4 cable to yield the best possible connection with my MacBook Pro.) Oh... & Philips stands solidly behind this monitor with a 4 year guarantee. Enough said. Highly recommended.

I am using it to connect a 27 inch secondary monitor with no issues.

This is a great option for an economical 27 inch monitor.

On a Mac, at least. Make sure you have an actual thunderbolt 3 cable.
