I'll first state that this thing is pretty pricey. Sorry Apple, it's true. I'm sure this thing costs much less to manufacture.
But if you need a digital video adapter for your iDevice, there's nothing better out there. I'd recommend you baby this device a bit (unfortunately my friend has one and after throwing it around for a year the sleeves started to pull back on the cable) a bit more than you would a regular lightning charger cable as those are much cheaper, but else relatively good quality and build.

I purchased this adapter to use with my iPad to connect to the TV when we go on travel. We recently tried it out while we were in a hotel for a few days and it worked great. Don't forget that you also need to take an HDMI cord with you in addition to this adapter if that is how you plan to use it. Highly recommend this product. It was so easy to connect. It is small and lightweight to carry with you while on the go.

Good Dongle for Presentations

The Lightning to HDMI dongle just worked. You plug it in the Lightning port, then plug your HDMI cable to the dongle and the iPad screen shows up on the external screen. In my case a projector. Not going to lie the price is a little high for what it is, but it's Apple branded and I had already spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to get Bluetooth and wifi options to work and they were laggy, inconsistent and not near as good. Pay the $54 for the dongle and move on with your life. You won't be disappointed.

Great experience purchasing from the App. I needed this item for the next day and it was prepared and was ready for pick up as they had indicated. The adapter worked flawlessly with my phone to deliver a Keynote presentation.

For the short time we didn’t have cable and internet this was a life saver. Bc mg iPad has its own service, it ment nothing that we didn’t have internet bc youtube was on full blast. Worked great. And it charged it too! ANDDDDD I didn’t have to stop my kiddos from harming one another over who got the “iPaid” (that’s what they call it lol) next! . Costly but worth its price in gold.. and nerves.. my nerves are much healthier.

5 stars for being what it says it is...a genuine Apple - Lightning Digital A/V Adapter - White. Note that it's not the new USB-C standard. We're using it to send a signal from iPhone/iPad through HDMI to our vehicle A/V system. Works as advertised. It's for a very specific purpose.
On a side note, I purchased this as an open box item through the app. They couldn't find it in store, likely a mistake in their system, and Best Buy upgraded to a new one at no additional cost. Our local store here and Best Buy in general is a place I enjoy shopping for electronics.

Bought it to stream my Netflix, Hulu , etc. while my internet at home is down temporarily. On my 65 inch 4K, the adapter will stream at 1080p HDR from my iPhone. You must use a 2.0 hdmi cable. I tried using an old hdmi cable that I had for my old Blu ray player and the quality was terrible. This device absolutely works if your using a newer hdmi cable. No issues.

I initially made the mistake of buying a similar aftermarket device on Amazon for half the price of this one. But it didn't work properly, so I returned it. I originaly wanted this device so I could connect my IPad to my TV in order to watch Apple TV on a larger screen. It works PERFECTLY, with no issues. In the end, it's worth paying the higher price for genuine Apple products. Only genuine Apple products will work properly with other Apple devices.

Thor turned my Honda Civic into an entertainment mobile!!! Because of this product I am able to watch Netflix and other apps like YouTube on my Dual monitor screen on my Honda civic. I've bought two in the past 4 years I believe this product start to wear down after the 2 year mark.

Love it. There’s not much to this product, so if you have your eye on it I think you know what you want. But let me just confirm it is as worth it as you think it will be.
I love being the gadget guy at work (management level, construction heavy civil) because one it’s fun, but two I think people appreciate it. It starts conversations, shows your teammates you are invested in your craft, and shows that you can find solutions to ‘problems’ (convenience related problems more than anything) that people didn’t realize they had.
This little device allows me to hook my phone up to the display in any conference room and present information. Whether I am missing photos on my computer for an accident investigation and I have to switch to my phone on the fly, or I am sharing my phone screen with a conference room of 40 people to domenstrate a new application that corporate expects us to use, this adapter has been there for my professional advancement.

This is terrific for watching videos and doing podcasts if you can't afford a three-camera set, You can use your ipad or iPhone for the production. "Airplay" on those devices gives you full screen appreciation if you want to watch a video on your big screen.
And unlike some lightning adapters, you don't need your ipad or iPhone to have electrical support - it is simply there in case you want to charger your device and view at the same time.

It works but be aware of rules trying to mirror certain apps to a TV. Some apps somehow recognize the connection and will block it. When it works, it’s excellent. But ease of use for 4 stars because of what I explained above.
