What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is inconsistent about compatibility: its title names iPhone 17/16/15, while other compatibility details list iPhone 16/15 and Samsung Galaxy S24/S23/S22, and the feature text lists older model ranges. It also combines Thunderbolt 3/4 claims with a notice that some USB-C devices are incompatible. Confirm support for your exact device and required output mode before purchase. The cable is one-way from USB-C to HDMI.
