would you be using that HDMI port?
Yes, absolutely. At work, we use MBPs, and I often ask someone with the port to connect to the TV so I don’t have to go find a dongle (and those dongles can be very finicky). I’ve had to work around the lack of an HDMI port, and it’s been incredibly annoying for the almost 4-years I’ve had my MBP.
My personal laptop has an HDMI port, and I also use it frequently to connect to our TV. It’s something I’d use weekly, if not more frequently. This laptop is older, yet I still prefer using it to the MBP, largely because of the HDMI port.
Ok, thanks for talking me through this. I have completely unused HDMI ports on my laptops and I’m genuinely curious about those who are using theirs.
I honestly only got a USB-C hub because the laptop didn’t have an HDMI port, so if we count the USB-C hub, the HDMI port is the most used port on both my work and home laptops. If we ignore the USB-C hub, it’s second only to the USB-A port, which my kids use for a mouse to play Minecraft (I rarely use it personally).
