Review: Works great on my Mac Studio - I had been using an Anker HDMI 4k USB-C connector with my Mac Studio for a year or so and it was getting really hot and the screen would lose connection for a few seconds at a time. I figured it needed replacing and saw the Cal-Digit (I've used their Thunderbolt hubs in the past) option with 8K support. I don't have an 8K monitor but figured I *might* someday..! Works great, screen actually looks clearer to me, so perhaps the Anker 4K was forcing me into a lower refresh rate than I had expected and never noticed. Either way, it works perfect to run at 4K/60 on my Dell monitor, and is not getting as hot as the Anker was. Solid option, much higher quality than the $10 random company adapters, and on-part with (if not better) than the Anker option.

### ⭐ Doesn't support 4K / 144 Hz as advertized
*by D***V on March 3, 2026*

I doesn't get the maximum out of my display, even though I use it with CalDigit Element 5 TB5 hub with my M4 MBP (2024). Despite my MBP having only TB5, there should be enough bandwidth for 4k / 144 Hz, but it only shows 60 Hz. What a waste of money! The reason I can't return it is because I'm now on the other side of the world.
