Compatibility & Fit
Your USB-C Port Must Carry Video
The adapter needs a USB-C port with video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt). Charge-only or data-only USB-C ports will not drive a display.
VGA Carries Video Only
VGA is an analogue, video-only connection, so sound will not pass to the projector or display. Use the laptop speakers or a separate audio connection.
Digital Displays
For HDMI or DisplayPort screens, a digital adapter gives a sharper picture: Lenovo USB-C to HDMI 2.0b Adapter (4X90R61022) or Lenovo USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter (4X90Q93303).
