Strengths:
Plug-and-play
Screw plugs for tight VGA connection
Additional Comments:
Needed to display presentations using an older MacBook Pro (mid-2011) so picked this up to give me the flexibility of VGA or HDMI as needed.
I plug it in, the MacBook Pro switches to dual display mode, and I'm off running. I haven't had any connection or display issues so have been quite happy.
Never tried to use it for sound over HDMI (not sure if that's even possible) so cannot comment on that. Have only used it for video display and it's been great.
