USB-C to Mini DisplayPort Adapter, USB 3.1 Type C (Thunderbolt 3) to Mini DP Adapter 4K Compatible with Lenovo T470, MacBook Pro to LED Cinema Display/Dell Monitor, etc - Silver

This product works as expected!I had initially tried another similar adapter*, but it didn't work, and only gave a black screen.My screen is an "Achieva Shimian QH270 27" LED 2560x1440 QHD S-IPS PC Monitor" which is a cheap replacement for the Apple Cinema Display (same display, different wrapping). Since others had reported success using this Amikoro adapter with Apple Cinema Display, I hoped that it would work for me as well. And it did! Just plug-and-play. :DBad thing with the Shimian monitor is that it only has a DVI-D port. I needed two other adapters for this setup to work. "Apple Mini Displayport to Dual Link DVI-D", and "Satechi Type-C multi-port adapter 4K with ethernet V2" which gives a regular USB port. I also had a DVI-D to DVI-D cable too (a DVI-I cable could work as well, but not DVI-A).This is how I connected them all successfully:1. Amikoro USB-C to Mini Displayport -> Mini Displayport chord of the "Apple Mini Displayport to Dual Link DVI-D"2. Satechi USB-C to USB 2.0 -> USB 2.0 chord of the "Apple Mini Displayport to Dual Link DVI-D"3. Apple Mini Displayport to Dual Link DVI-D -> DVI-D cable -> Shimian monitorNotice that this setup uses two USB-C ports on the Macbook. Luckily, I can use the additional USB-C exit on the Satechi adapter to connect the Macbook's USB-C power chord. The Satechi adapter doesn't allow the Amikoro adapter to be plugged into its USB-C exit port (since it probably doesn't pass through the DisplayPort Alternate Mode signal), but you can use that USB-C exit port on the Satechi adapter for power instead. So it's all good!Links to the other adapters used together with the Amikoro adapter:"Satechi Type-C multi-port adapter 4K with ethernet V2" is what it is called on the Satechi home page.Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter:https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Mini-DisplayPort-Dual-Link-Adapter/dp/B001IF252CDVI-D cable similar to the one I have:https://www.amazon.com/C2G-26911-DVI-D-Digital-Meters/dp/B0000X0VCYAchieva Shimian QH270 27" LED 2560x1440 QHD S-IPS PC Monitor:https://www.amazon.com/Achieva-Shimian-QH270-lite-wide/dp/B009UZ78L0* - The competing product which did not work (gave a black screen): "Delock Adapter USB Type-C™ male > mini DisplayPort female (DP Alt Mode) 4K 60 Hz with PD function" is what it is called on the delock home page.

My Apple Cinema Display 27” worked correctly without any issue, the connection was immediately, thanks!

The adapter lasted one year before it failed. I was getting intermittent flashing and then a blank screen. I wasn't sure if it was the cable or the adapter, but today I tried both separately and it is the adapter. I feel it should work for longer than a year.

Pros:1. Works as advertised on DELL external monitors with DP to MiniDP cable to Amiroko adaptor. So far only used for 1 day, 8 hours.2. Color matched my MBP, although I'm not a fan of the white cord.3. Construction appears to be of good quality.Cons:1. USB-C connectors are a tight fit into MacBook Pro 13" 2018 ports, with an unsettling "hard click" as it connects. Uncertain how this may effect the USB-C port on my MBP.2. Cannot attach 2 Amiroko adaptors of this type on same side of MBP to drive 2 external monitors. I had to place one on each side of the MBP to make laptop recognize both monitors. Not sure if this is a MBP hardware configuration issue. After changing placement to 1 on each side, the set-up worked as expected.

I had a HecToo (brand) computer device to connect my old Macintosh CInema Display with my new MacBook Pro laptop computer. It worked sort of. I say "sort of," because frequently my Cinema Display screen would get very fuzzy, and I would have to remove & re-insert the HecToo device at least five times where it plugged into the laptop before the screen would re-set itself to a clear view. A friend recommended the Amiroko version of the connector device. The first one did not work. I wrote an email through Amazon and received an almost immediate response from someone named "Rachel." The next day I received two versions of the device. The first one was simply a replacement for the first one that didn't work. The second was of a different color, so I assume something is different about it. The replacement one has worked perfectly for about 3 days, and I am very encouraged. When I asked Rachel what she wanted me to do with the different colored one she told me to keep it in case the screen gets fuzzy, and in case the replacement connector stops working.Rarely do I ever get service like this, and I am quite pleased with the way things turned out. Rachel was awesome!

My LED Cinema Display has mini display port connector. This adapter connects to that mini DP connector, and then connects to the MacBook via USB-C port. Perfect, seamless, external monitor.

Nice product, fits fine, but the monitor is a DVI-cabled connection and this doesn't seem to work.

I am using this adapter to connect an Apple LED Cinema Display to my M3 MacBook Pro. It works perfectly, plug-and-play. No setup needed. Very happy with this product.
