I have been using this product for week and tested with several phones and computers. As long as they support display out using USB-C then they worked without any issues.
The adaptor is very small and portable, about the same length of my phone. It is made of plastic with a nice shiny finish on the HDMI end and soft plastic cord for the USB-C end. It came in a zip lock bag that most StarTech products come in without any instructions.
From the package I didn't know that it would only work with DisplayPort over USB-C devices until I connected to a Google Pixel phone and investigated why it wasn't working. It did work successfully with a Galaxy S8 and several laptops with USB-C built-in. Once connected the display started working within seconds.
This is a great small travel adaptor for using HDMI over USB-C, as long as your device supports the display out over USB-C. I will surly bring this whenever I travel with a supported device. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.
This adapter was reliable and easy to use with various laptops, such as HP, Toshiba and Dell, which I tested it upon. There were no additional drivers required, which is always a plus, and was compatible with the various operating systems of the laptops tested. The video and audio sync was flawless.

I have been in the AV/IT Integration space for over 30 years.
I found this unit easy to setup and use on my Microsoft and Android devices. The unit installs quickly with no additional drivers or software required, and is compatible with a variety of operating systems, which I tested. There was no tearing of the video or audio sync issues during my testing. Overall, I found the unit to be reliable, easy to use and of high quality.

I have both Startech USB-C to HDMI and USB-C to DP adapters, only the HMDI adapter doesn't handle hotplugging well, either I see screen tearing on my Dell U2414H only on the HDMI adapter. Hotplugging doesn't always work, i.e. the display is not detected.
