I bought this about 3 months ago and it worked great and helped me connect my monitors at first…. but suddenly it stopped responding and doesn’t even get recognized by my pc. Very disappointed with the product had high hopes for it to have longevity.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our USB32HD4K. We are sorry to hear that you experienced difficulty with USB32HD4KD as this is not expected behavior for our USB video adapter. Our Technical Advisors will be reaching out to you shortly.
I've been using this adaptor for almost 2 years. I'm running 2 Samsung curved screens in addition to my Macbook Pro screen. It's perfect. Every time I update the OS I typically have to download new drivers, but StarTech keeps them up to date so I've been very happy.
After using this adapter with my MacBook Air m1 for a month, my adapter suddenly stopped working. I tried installing the latest drivers, plugging it into different monitors and computers but software only recognises the monitor and doesn’t display anything on it. I am beyond disappointed because when it worked it worked sufficiently for my needs, but I just can’t leave a good review if the product that i paid 140€ for stops working after a month.

I bought this since my laptop's max output through HDMI is only 1080p. So this worked for some minutes, then it just stopped. Tried again installing all the drivers available and again it worked... for an hour. Now it just doesn't recognize the device.

The USB32HD4K includes a 2 year warranty. We will be reaching out to perform some troubleshooting and, if deemed defective and within warranty, help facilitate a replacement.
This is a great product except if you need the Windows 10 "night light" feature supported. Then it just ignores the night light setting on Windows and displays at full blue light intensity.
