BENFEI USB C to DVI Adapter, Type-C to DVI Adapter [Thunderbolt 3 Compatible] for MacBook Pro 2018/2017, MacBook Air/iPad Pro 2018, Samsung Galaxy S10/S9, Surface Book 2 and More - Grey

These BENFEI USB-C to DVI adapters are exactly what I needed to connect my MacBook to an older monitor. They work flawlessly—just plug and play with no drivers required. The build quality is solid, and the connection is stable with no flickering or signal loss. I’ve tested them with both 2022 and 2021 MacBooks, and they perform consistently well. Great value for a 2-pack, especially if you need a backup or use multiple setups. Highly recommended for anyone needing a simple and effective USB-C to DVI solution!

This is a great alternative to an original Apple one and actually it was an Apple tec that suggested it. I am on my second one but the first one did last for many many years so I was actually happy enough to purchase again as it was still cheaper than buying a new large screen!

My Mac mini 2018 has an HDMI port and 3 Thunderbolt / USB-C ports. Since purchase I had connected my 2006 Apple Cinema HD display, that uses a DVI connector, via a DVI to HDMI adaptor supplied by Apple. The weakness of this connector was that, at intervals and often when rebooting, the display would switch to stochastic grey snow with only a ghost of the Apple Logo or other content showing. The solution – deeply unnerving – was to pull the HDMI plug and reinsert it into the back of the Mac mini while the computer was booted. While it was working it was great, but when the HDMI connection failed it involved a risky procedure that could crash the computer and lose unsaved work.The BENFEI USB C to DVI Adapter, Type-C to DVI Adapter [Thunderbolt 3 Compatible] is a commendably good solution. and I haven't had to reboot the configuration once in relation to this connection. It is absolutely stable in use, with precise pixel display – the HDMI connection on reset often left a single pixel magenta stripe down the left hand side and some screen flutter for minutes after a reset of the DVI plug.The only criticism I can make of the Benefit connection is that on waking from an extended sleep, there is a millisecond or so pale graining of the screen, that disappears in that blink. It usually only happens at the start of the day and other moments when the screen is woken this doesn't recur. From my perspective this is a world of improvement. For somebody who comes straight to this set up, this might present some minor measure of disappointment with the Benfei connector. That would be a pity and unjustified in the context of the measure of the problem being resolved. I see this as a means of keeping a beautiful old screen in use long after the departure of its paired workhorse Mac Pro 1.1 from 2006.

This has enabled me to connect an old Apple Cinema Display to my Mac mini with ease. Worked first time, no issues.

Works well with my 2025 Mac mini M4, and much older 2010 Apple Cinema Display. It's not a 4K screen so USB C is fine.Well made, solid construction, looks good with Apple products.

Purchased to hook up an old style Apple display with a more modern laptop. Worked perfectly!

It effectively connects my laptop to an older monitor.

It works, unlike two different makes, which rendered wrong colours.
