Customers like the adapter. It works to bridge their monitor's VGA connection to their HDMI port on their laptop. They say it pairs with their projector without needing USB power. The adapter allows them to connect a device that only has digital outputs to a VGA cable. They connect it to two different Windows laptops, ASUS and Lenovo laptops. It works with Xbox and Xbox One for video because those units have drivers to support its use. The standard female port is compatible with standard projectors.

Customers have mixed opinions about the adapter's durability. Some say it works well, is well-built, and reliable. Others mention it breaks easily, loses quality, and doesn't last long.

Customers have different views on the power source. Some say the USB cable is not needed, as it's powered from a USB port. Others mention it requires external power through USB, which can be connected to a power source or an available USB port. The power source is necessary, even though it takes up USB port space.
"This is a nice little adapter. The optional USB cable for power is not necessary...." Read more
"...This does require external power through USB, which can be connected to a power source or to the computer...." Read more

"...The price was unbelievable too. ooh there is an included usb in case you have issues with screen flickering which I am guessing would have to do..." Read more
Customers are unhappy with the signal strength of the product. They report issues like no signal, input signal out of range, and connection failures. The cord doesn't actually convert the signal, so you would be better off just spending the extra $20. There are also complaints that it doesn't push the signal for longer runs and outputs a degraded signal to two monitors and no signal to a third monitor.
"...I kept getting no signal messages. Then I had a brainstorm and tried putting this device at the DVD end and using a long VGA...." Read more
"...VicTsing adapter was recognized by the computer, but the projector did not receive a signal..." Read more
"...Did I receive a defective product? Was the signal not strong enough? Was it simply a poor connection?..." Read more
"...The laptop and TV both support VGA and HDMI, but the VGA signal far superior, despite multiple attempts to adjust display settings...." Read more

- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2014Color: BlackVerified PurchaseI just bought a new lap top but when I work in my office I hooking it up to a large monitor. The new connector for the lap top doesn't work with the cable from the monitor so I had to buy a adapter. I bought it at Best Buy (yep, sucker....) because I wanted it to work the day I bought the computer. It took the guy forever to scour the back peg walls and find it, so I thank him for that, but the one he found first is the one he brought up to me and it was $50. Yikes. So I went to Amazon, found this one, ordered it, received it very fast (I only bought the computer last Friday night and I already had the adapter by Thursday!) and then, last night, the 1 week anniversary of buying the computer I returned the $50 adapter to back to them. Caution: when I connected this adapter to the computer and monitor the first time, the screen did NOT display on the monitor. I thought I'd have to return it and was sad but then, against all natural inclination, I read the 2 page flyer that came with it and it tells how to adjust your settings and Voila! works great and saved me over $25 even including postage. Highly recommend! No need to pay more (now I wonder if I could have got the cheaper one even....a segment on 20/20 last night compared a $6 tv connector cable with a $300 cable and there was no difference....) but I liked the reviews for this one and one of the cheaper ones did seem to cause people trouble. FYI.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2014Color: BlackVerified PurchaseBought this HDMI-to-VGA adapter (which is shipped with an included USB power cable) for pairing a new HP Chromebox (CB1-014) for use with a very old LCD. Works great - simple plug-and-play. Allows use of an old 15pin D-sub VGA cable to the LCD monitor. (Note: While HDMI cables provide sound, VGA does not. Thus a person would need a separate 3.5mm audio cable to provide sound to the speakers being used. Since i already had said 3.5mm stereo cable for providing sound, there was nothing else for me to purchase.)
Note: The Chromebox clearly labels that the front two ports as USB Power ports (noting that they provide both power and data connections.) Be certain to power this HDMI-to-VGA adapter with the PROVIDED power cable (USB-A male to micro-USB-B male power cable.) Using that power cable connected with a simple USB data port might not provide enough power - idk really - since first i do not know the required min power to drive this this HDMI-to-VGA adapter. I am assuming that any negative posts about this item are related to ppl not using the PROVIDED power cable or possibly connecting that cable to a data-only USB port - but really i am guessing here. (Note: The USB power cable plugs into a USB-A power port and also a USB micro-B port on the block-shaped part of this HDMI-to-VGA adapter.)
- Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2015Color: BlackVerified PurchaseGot this to play Google Play movies from a Chromebook to an older VGA Projector. Worked like a charm with no fussing around. Once the Chromebook HDMI out was plugged into this adaptor, and the adaptor plugged into the VGA In on the projector - it just worked. The Chromebook instantly saw the second display, set the resolution to the highest supported by the projector and we were off. Picture quality was very good, as good as VGA allows.
The only issue is Audio. HDMI sends audio with the video signal, but VGA does not. This created a minor issue, as the Chromebook thought audio was playing over HDMI - obviously it wasn't. This adaptor does not have an audio out, but that was not an issue. We just set the Chromebook audio out to be a set of Bluetooth speakers and we were in business - big projected picture and great sound. Awesome way to watch a movie.
BTW: While I mention Chromebook above, I did the same setup from a Windows Laptop and it had the same issue with audio, and the same solution. So the behavior is the same on notebooks other than the Chromebook I talk about above. The only difference, the Chromebook had enough power via HDMI to power the adaptor - the Windows laptop did not. On Windows, I plugged the included micro-USB cable in to give it more power. The adaptor came with the USB cable for this issue, nice touch.
Quality: good. Movie quality looked very good. When displaying static content, like excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint presentations the low resolution of the VGA projector was more visible but the quality was still fine - crisp, sharp and vivid colors. All good.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2025Color: BlackVerified PurchasePerfect no complaints other than short but u can tell from pic

Works flawlessly!
I've seen a lot of unhappy reviews of other products--this one costs a little more, but didn't disappoint!
Make sure you have a USB port open for power.
The story:
As a designer I have used two monitors since I was in high-school and couldn't live without them. I upgraded my workstation to a 30+20 combo and my operations manager was wowed by the functionality.
She had just upgraded her monitor and her old monitor was just sitting in storage. She wondered if I could setup her monitors like that... I checked out her ports and her new monitor was connected by DVI, and her only other output was HDMI. Her old monitor was pretty old and only had VGA connections. So I looked up options for the adapter-found this one... two days later it arrives and it only took a few minutes to install. Hooked it all up, turned on the computer and it was instantly working!
I was concerned about it needing power and running that power out of a PC controlled USB port... Would it take a little to boot up? Would the PC not detect it right away and cause problems with the dual monitor configuration? Would it get finicky when the computer is going in and out of sleep? NOPE! Worked perfectly, as if the monitor was plugged straight into the PC.

Color: BlackVerified PurchaseReally was an easy, effective way to convert HDMI to VGA... I had no problems installing, and immediately using this. It works flawlessly, converting HDMI, to VGA, from our PC, to an old Dell monitor. The micro-usb power source, plugged neatly into an unused port. For me, this product worked exactly as I expected, it was a very affordable price, and arrived in one day. No problem recommending this a a solid buy.
