It was introduced in 2006 as a follow-up technology for the older Video Graphics Array (VGA) and Digital Visual Interface (DVI). If you're in the market for a new laptop, be sure to have a look at our best business laptops guide, as we always value devices with plenty of connectivity options.DisplayPort is now one of the most popular display interfaces (along with HDMI).

USB-C has one specific disadvantage, and it’s the fact that many laptops have a limited number of USB-C ports. In that case, you may find you’ll need to get a USB-C hub to widen your options. Make sure it has a passthrough for the power supply, and ideally an extra USB-C port too. Many hubs also have an HDMI connection for added versatility. The best part about DisplayPort connections is that the higher bandwidth ensures almost no compression, especially when it comes to high-resolution content.

Though it comes with two sets of HDMI and DisplayPort connections, you have to keep in mind that you can use just one connection from each set. This means you can either use an HDMI port or a Displayport to connect a monitor and not both. Nevertheless, both connections support 4K displays at 60Hz, and that’s a huge plus. Make sure the device or dongle is connected to the USB-C port on your PC that supports the correct Alternate Mode. For example, a DisplayPort Alternate Mode adapter should be connected to the USB-C port on your PC that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode. Usually, a task which should essentially be “plug this into this” becomes complex and time consuming. However, don’t let this dissuade you from accomplishing your monitor goal, just make sure you do plenty of research before buying a cable, and make sure it’s the one you need. All other products will be delivered via the fastest available method (excluding bank holidays and weekends) and generally within 3-5 days, depending on customer location.
