The short version

Zeskit's TCHD23F is a 23 cm USB-C to HDMI adapter using DisplayPort Alt Mode and a Parade chip to output up to 4K at 60Hz with HDCP 2.2. It needs no drivers and suits MacBooks, iPad Pro models and other USB-C laptops connecting to a TV or projector. Its HDMI 2.0 ceiling of 18 Gbps rules out 4K120, and Zeskit says Samsung S8 and S9 phones get mirror mode only rather than DeX.

Common questions

Will it do 4K at 120Hz?

No. Zeskit lists HDMI 2.0 with 18 Gbps maximum bandwidth, which limits it to 4K at 60Hz.

Does it work with Samsung DeX?

Zeskit says Samsung S8 and S9 phones work in mirror mode only, not DeX, when using this adapter.
