    Since I teach a lot of classes, I needed a way to display on the big screen. Granted there are other ways and methods, but this made things easy for sure.

    I had the original HDMI adapter for the Surface Pro 3, the end was different and did not fit into my display dock, but this one is flat and fits perfectly.

    My multi-monitor Surface Book Solution

    I did a lot of reading before buying this adapter. I had a surface book and a spare monitor at work. Brought the adapter home to only realize my monitor did not have an HDMI input. I felt like an idiot. We had an HDMI to VGA adapter and I plugged that in. The only thing was to get the monitor to wake up I had to keep unplugging replugging. It was someones personal adapter. Before returning the cable (I don't work close to Best Buy) another adapter was tried. And low and behold that adapter wakes up the monitor every time. I'm now very happy with my setup and this cable has worked great.

    If your monitor, TV or whatever you're trying to output to has HDMI then you definitely need this to bridge the gap from the Display Port on the Surface.

    Works great for my Surface Pro 4 setup

    Works great with my Surface Pro 4. The cord has great length and the it fits well into the minidisplay port. This is the only adapter I have used with my Surface machine, but also my friend with a macbook used it on his machine and it worked fine too. Transfers high resolution display to a monitor or TV & does the job splendidly. You can find a best buy branded insignia model for a little cheaper if you shop around though. I'd still recommend this product & you know you're getting quality when it's manufactured from Microsoft!

    This adapter worked as soon as it was plugged in. While I generally don't like buying cables and adapters retail, the Insignia brand allows me to get a reliable product at a better price.

    Needed these cables to put two monitors on the dock, they seem to work well. Only downside is you have to buy special cables for it.
