UGREEN USB C to HDMI 2.1 Cable 8K@60Hz
Product description
This UGREEN USB C to HDMI 2.1 cable brings high‑resolution video and multichannel audio to laptops and tablets, making it practical for home cinema, presentations and gaming setups. It supports up to 8K at 60Hz and a range of 4K high refresh rates, so you can expect smoother motion and clearer detail when the host device and display allow it. For MacBook users note that macOS limits some models to 4K@60Hz according to the manufacturer.
Key points
The cable follows the HDMI 2.1 specification and increases theoretical bandwidth compared with older HDMI 2.0 leads. That higher throughput is intended to reduce flicker and frame drops when the chain is compatible, and the cable also handles dynamic HDR and 12‑bit colour processing for richer contrast and wider gamut. It is described as compatible with Thunderbolt 3, 4 and 5 or USB‑C ports that support DisplayPort Alt Mode, which makes it a broadly useful connector for recent MacBooks, iPads, Surface devices and selected phones.

UGREEN USB C to HDMI 2.1 Cable 8K@60Hz pairs well with recent MacBook Pro and Air models, iPad Pro and many Windows ultraportables that expose a DP Alt Mode over USB‑C. You’ll also find compatibility lists that include Pixel and Galaxy flagships and some handheld gaming devices, making the cable useful across desktop and mobile workflows. It suits users who want higher resolution and cleaner audio from a single, sturdy lead.
