I'm getting new Mac after weekend. So far I was a proud owner of mid 2012 model. But come time to make change.
I have external monitor LG 29UM65 with DisplayPort.
Now I had to use DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort cable.
Also I'm using external HDD and pendrives with USB 2.0/3.0
Any suggestions what good cable can I get to connect my monitor to new mac? Or better choose adapter usb-c to mini displayport?
I forgot mention that this monitor allow me to use DisplayPort and HDMI. Maybe I should use USB-C to HDMI instead of USB-C to DisplayPort + mini DisplayPort dongle. Someone who use similar setup, can say something about your own experience?
To connect standard usb devices I was thinking about some small hub up to 4x ports [I need connect dongle for keyboard, sometimes another mouse and of course external hdd or soemthing else]
Another issue is with conencting iPhone 6s. I'm not a fan of cables from apple [easy to bend, broke etc, everyone know what I mean].
Any suggestion here?
Maybe someone used USB-C to USB 3.0 from nonda?
