Best $60 I ever spent
on December 1, 2023

Verified Purchase:Yes
My fiancé and I lost our cat for 7 days and this camera was absolutely INSTRUMENTAL in finding and bringing him home. We set it up in our garage, cracked the door a bit, and set the motion sensitivity to maximum so we would know when he came inside. Then we just closed the garage door behind him whenever we got the motion notification from the camera. It would have been 100 times harder to find and catch him without this piece of equipment. Couldn’t recommend it more, and the camera did its job reliably and flawlessly. Now I’ll just set it up as a regular webcam to watch our front porch!

The Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter lets you connect Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2 devices - external hard drives and Thunderbolt displays, for example - to any of the Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports on your MacBook Pro. As a bidirectional adapter, it can also connect new Thunderbolt 3 devices to a Mac with a Thunderbolt or Thunderbolt 2 port.*

I got them because they fit my ears very well and are comfortable, but I do not really think they are worth the price. Meh

Fighting the Final Boss? Binge-watching your favorite series? Working on spreadsheets from home? The VIOTEK GNV34DB2 is the multimedia, multitasking solution for you! It features an ultra-wide display resolution of 3440x1440p ~ more than twice the pixel density of full-HD monitors. The GNV34DB2 delivers vibrant images, rich with color. With a 3,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, you~ll get deep, inky blacks and brilliant whites. Its lightning-fast 100Hz refresh rate produces flicker-free video with virtually zero dropped frames. The deep 1500R curved screen delivers superior viewing comfort that wraps around your field of vision. It~s more ergonomically ideal than 1800R curved monitors but still has a relatively thin frame. That puts you right at the heart of the action and into the movie. And the 21:9 aspect ratio lets you watch movies with true cinema quality, the way filmmakers intended. The GNV34DB2 is packed from edge to edge with advanced features for an incredible gaming experience. Activate AMD FreeSync and enjoy smooth gameplay with significant reduction to image distortion (stuttering, tearing, ghosting) during motion-heavy games. The Viotek Gaming Suite includes GAMEPLUS crosshairs to enhance your aim, turning every shot into a bullseye. FPS/RTS optimizations bring out extra detail in darker images: see snipers hiding in shadows before they get the drop on you. Fully adjustable, the color calibration options let you tweak the color balance to your exact preference. And a blue-light filter minimizes eyestrain so you can play or watch all night. Declutter your desktop. Say goodbye to dual-monitor setups. One GNV34DB2 is all you need. The 21:9 ultra-wide display lets you experience truly magnificent multitasking with three-input picture-in-picture (PIP) and picture-by-picture (PBP). Connect another PC or laptop, game console, or streaming box with the three HDMI ports or DisplayPort. Use the monitor~s 3.5mm audio jack to connect a soundbar or speakers. Movie lovers. Avid gamers. Content creators. Power users. The GNV34DB2 34-inch ultrawide 100Hz monitor has something for everyone.

So much screen!

Coming from a 1080p 144hz, this monitor is a massive upgrade in EVERY department except for the refresh rate. However, 100hz doesn’t bother me one bit. I’ve had no issues with the monitor itself, it is stunning, especially for the price! I assume when you are looking at it, it will be $350. BUY THIS NOW!

I’ve used cheaper HDMI to USB C cables in the past and had many issues staying connected, flickering, running full resolution, etc especially when using my MacBook Air 2020. I’ve had absolutely 0 issues with this cable. Don’t buy cheaper cables. Just get this one and avoid issues!

Recently had a very bad thunderstorm and our power kept flickering, this machine kept my machine up and running the whole time and I didn’t have to worry at all about losing work or damaging my machine. My entire setup is about 110 watts idle, and this machine reports I have about 35 minutes of battery time.

I have the first generation iPhone X. Does this work with that charging at 18 watts not just at 5 or 10 watts.

Yup, the iPhone X will charge at the full 18W.

The Apple 18W USB-C power adapter offers fast, efficient charging at home, in the office, or on the go. While the power adapter is compatible with any USB-C-enabled device, Apple recommends pairing it with the 11-inch iPad Pro and 12.9-inch iPad Pro (3rd generation) for optimal charging performance. The charging cable is sold separately.
 

Will this also power the MacBook Pro?

It will, but it will charge it very slowly. Would not recommend doing this
