A:AnswerIn the scenario you describe, this cable will not transfer a video signal. You would need an HDMI cable that meets the standards of the TV that you're using.
A:AnswerYep. Exactly what I just purchased it for as the cable provided by Playstation is of poor quality and charges extremely slow. This cable however is a bit harder to remove and clicks into the USB C port on the controller. Hopefully it won't damage it but it definitely shouldnt slip out during gaming!
So far its charging, but time will tell if it charges quicker than the cord that comes in the box. Quality is excellent however.
