Answin USB C to Mini DisplayPort, 6Ft 4K@60Hz Thunderbolt 3 to Mini Displayport Cable Compatible for iPhone 15/16/17 Series, M1-M4 MacBook Pro, Surface Book 2, Galaxy S21-S25, Steam Deck and Rog Ally

Happen to have a 27-inch 2009 iMac that was gathering dust and getting ready to show up on craigslist. I had been using this with my 2014 MacBook pro using a mini display port cable as an external monitor. Just upgraded to a 2022 MacBook air with M2 chip. There are a bunch of Thunderbolt/USB-C to mini-DP cables and adapters out there, but many do not work with the newer MacBook Airs, or with the Target Display Mode (TDM) on the iMac. ***NOTE*** AFAIK, newer Macs will work ONLY with 2009 and 2010 27-inch iMacs in TDM. If looking at a cable always use the "Looking for specific info" search box and ask. This one works just fine. I can use the iMac as an extended or mirrored display. Display quality is great. Default resolution is 2560x1440 and there are a slew of lower resolution options.

It worked. What else do you need?

I wanted to replace a multi-cable / multi-adapter setup to connect my iPad or Mac Studio to my old 2009 iMac. This USB-C to mini DisplayPort cable did just the trick and was long enough to give me a little extra play moving the iMac around on my desk. I use it as a second monitor next to my primary one. Be careful in making sure your DisplayPort device will work -- the seller is good about giving specific details about compatibility, although you have to hunt for detail. For example, it doesn't support all iMacs. But in my case the seller specifically represents: "Compatible with the Apple Cinema Display or iMac (Target Display Mode) made before 2010". I'm using it with 2009 iMac in Target Display Mode.

Does not work with my 2022 m2 MacBook Pro, to Mid 2010 iMac

I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro 14” m1 to replace my 2012 MacBook Pro and my 2010 iMac 27”. I really wanted to streamline my setup and not run multiple computers anymore and found out about running clamshell mode. Now I have my mobile MacBook Pro and can plug in a cable and use my old iMac 27” as a monitor even with my computer closed. I just linked my apple keyboard and mouse to my MacBook Pro and it functions as a regular desktop and can be unhooked and used as normal too. It works!

So I bought this cable thinking it would be low quality and not good for my iMac Pro, bu for $10 bucks I couldn't say no. Got it in the mail, plugged it in, and immediately... MAGIC. super happy the quality is great because I love the braided cable for durability, but also love the fact that it works flawlessly as well. 10/10 would recommend.

Did not work. I waited too long to try it out. I would have asked to return this item. It does not connect my laptop to the monitor.

This cable worked great to connect my new 2020 Macbook Pro with Thunderbolt 3 port to my old iMac (mid 2010) using the display port. I plugged it into my iMac then into my Macbook, the screens flashed off/on then it automatically added my iMac as another display! I didn't have to do anything. I did access System Pref--->Display to move the orientation of the two displays with iMac on top and Macbook on the bottom as the default is side by side. It worked with my iMac whether I'm signed into it or not. So basically, this was a plug and play solution which is great. FYI, it's is only a display, you cannot access the data on the iMac.

يعمل بشكل جيد جدا ومناسب

Works good, it's useful for older imacs late 2009 edition.

Working like a charm with my MacBook Pro M1 A2338 2030 and my IMac late 2010 27 in. All I had to do was to connect the cables and go in my system preferences- monitor- disposition - video copy! Easy and the quality is perfect!

Excellent quality. I have it 3 stars because it didn’t work as indicated, on a 2012 MacBook Air.

Bought it to display my Windows 10 laptop screen (thunderbolt 3) on my old iMac mid 2010 (mini DP). It works really well. The quality of the display is not altered. All you have to do is connect both ends of the cables.
