Description

I'm glad that most devices have adopted USB-C as their standard connection type because it's made my life easier, and I only need a single-do-all cable for most of my needs. However, monitors and smart TVs complicate matters by offering multiple ports, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB-C, each with pros and cons depending on the scenario. To further complicate things, not all cables are created equal, and choosing the wrong one can dramatically affect my audio or visuals.
