Welcome to the family.

Trust me, at first few months, you will complaint and start wondering "why you buy this Mac".

As, you may find lots of thing not compatible at first.

Soon you will never go back to Window

Guys i got a 5k voucher for any merch in epi center.

Selling it for 4.5k. Anybody wants pm me.

Guys, need advise for my macbook pro with touchbar. I bought an adapter from USB C to HDMI, connect it to an Acer monitor via HDMI but somehow it is not picking up the HDMI signal.

Am I missing something? It's a cheap Rm69 adapter from Viewnet.

Have you tried it with a TV? Does it work? Cos I plan to get one also but will be using with a TV.

anyone using hyperdrive ultimate usb-c hub?

the problem is probably the "cheap"ness. you need to make sure what version of HDMI your monitor needs and if the adapter is transmitting that same signal.

the box shows that it is compatible with macbook, hmm. I'll check later what version of HDMI it is using for the monitor.

still no update

it should work nonetheless. after connect, go to display settings. is the monitor detected?

or press command+f3. shortcut for mirror and extend

just test on a different monitor, now it is showing pinkish color for the display. changed to another HDMI cable, tada, it works now. Just need to get another HDMI cable it seems, since i borrowed the HDMI cable from my colleague.

Finally ! Need to update high Sierra

hahaha get a new hdmi cable then. a high quality ones.

Why need to upgrade ?

it only work for a while, then the actual adapter died. Now using the Apple adapter. Will return the faulty adapter to the place I bought it since got 3 months warranty. Buying a better branded adapter maybe J5Create

Apple adapter Rm329 is too much for me

2 x USB 3.0
1 x USB-C (power delivery)
1 x HDMI
1 x VGA

can invest in MBP, RM329 is nothing for you.

but not for an adapter my mistake buying the cheap non branded adapter in the first place, Baseus, Ugreen, J5Create is above Rm150 for their adapter and works well like Apple ori adapter.
