Get the full benefits of USB, including plug and play connectivity, thin and flexible cabling, and ability to connect via USB 2.0 hubs and repeaters.

Easy multi-monitor setup with clear display
This adapter is a lifesaver for setting up multiple monitors! It was very easy to install and worked right away on my Windows laptop. The picture quality is clear and smooth up to 1080p, and I had no issues with lag. It’s also great that it supports different operating systems, which makes it super versatile. Perfect solution if you need an extra screen for work or study

Light compact and does the job!
I work from home and this is such a god sent moment when I picked up the Plugable USB 2.0 VGA Display Adapter to connect an older monitor, and it worked exactly how I hoped. Setup was simple, the driver installation was straightforward, and within minutes I had an extra screen running smoothly. The picture quality is solid for everyday work, streaming, or browsing, and it supports up to 1080p which is all I really need. I also like that it’s lightweight and compact, so it doesn’t take up much space. If you’re looking for an easy way to add another display without upgrading your whole setup, this is a great option. Highly recommend!
