Samsung Hdmi From Laptop

I recently also bought a Samsung UHD monitor from B & H to use with my laptop, and though the monitor includes an HDMI cable, a friend recommended my buying the Mini DisplayPort Adapter Cable for even higher quality than the HDMI. Not only was it inexpensive, it definitely makes a worthwhile difference in sharper and richer picture quality, and would highly recommend this product to anyone wishing to improve their monitor picture quality.

Worked well from laptop to hdmi to projector.

Love everything about this laptop, got it especially for the HDMI port. Thank you ...

I bought two of these to run from a powered HDMI splitter from my laptop and all is good.

I use this to provide an HDMI output port from my HP laptop. It has worked flawlessly.

Got this television to replace a very old flat panel. The picture on the CU8000 is great and it's light enough to move around without an issue. The one thing that really needs either changing or better explanation is Samsung's user interface. It is awful. Moving from HDMI 1 (in this case, cable) to HDMI 2 (AppleTV) and HDMI 4 (a rarely used DVD player) takes WAY too many steps. Why there is no input button on the remote is beyond me. Samsung all but forces you to use their connections for any streaming service. Beyond the UI, great TV at a great price.

I bought this to connect my aging Samsung monitor, which only has DVI and VGA inputs, to my new computer which only has DisplayPort and HDMI outputs. Since the monitor doesn't have a sound system in it, DisplayPort is the natural choice, and I use the HDMI of for my pen tablet. Cable works flawlessly with no problems in picture quality and has plenty of length to be able to stow the computer out of the way. It feels durable enough to last many years.

While Samsung makes a wonderful TV, the HDMI ports are poorly designed, located on the side of the unit. This causes strain on the cable terminals due to the weight of the cables. The Pearstone 90-degree adapter allows the cable to fit into the port vertically, removing the strain. Terminals fit snugly in the high quality adapters.

Samsung places this monitor in their Essentials lineup - a moniker usually reserved by vendors for very basic devices. And, indeed, many things about this monitor are basic. But nothing is actually bad or even poor. The picture is good. The brightness is good. It properly handles 50Hz (PAL framerate) video from my retro gaming scaler, so that's a very nice feature. As is typical with inexpensive monitors, the stand is bare-bones and places the monitor quite low to the desk, but the VESA mounting option lets me add a $20 monitor arm to solve that issue. The single HDMI input is a tad limiting, but at $4 per port for the HDMI licensing fee, I can understand why they did that. It's also not excessively light-weight that it threatens to topple over on my desk. The external power supply is a bit of an odd design, being an in-line brick with with the AC input at an angle. Just something to keep in mind for cable routing concerns. In all, a great monitor for the price. Highly recommended.

I have a 65 Samsung TV and just bought the Gradient Lightstrip and Hue Play HDMI Sync Box. I absolutely love it. It was very easy to set up and install. It adds a whole new perspective to the television. I already had other Hue lights in the house. It is awesome!
