Very good

I could only test this with a laptop and portable devices going into an HD monitor, so I cannot test the higher theoretical specs of this adapter, but what I could connect worked fine without issue. Nice quality adapter, no issues so far.

Very good quality, lovely presentation with retail box. High price but in this instance a) you know where you stand with quality, b) reliable and a proper brand c) You know the standards will always meet manufacturer guidlines and the specs will not be 'made up'. Here I tested it with my M4 Mac Mini and it works well. I havent got any display equipmentto go to 16k though so can't comment on that at present.

This claimed "80Gbps" USB-C Thunderbolt 4 adapter is the first adapter I’ve encountered that can potentially handle a 16K display. It comes packaged with a small leaflet, but no detailed instructions specifically about the cable.This adapter supports DisplayPort 2.1, which theoretically allows resolutions up to 16K if you have the necessary equipment and display. For those without a 16K setup, it can still manage 8K at 240Hz or 4K at 960Hz, provided your monitor or TV supports these specs. DisplayPort 2.1 also includes DP Alt Mode and USB 4 compatibility, maximizing Thunderbolt 4’s capabilities. The typical data rate is 40Gbps, but with Thunderbolt 4’s eight-lane design, it reaches a combined throughput of 80Gbps, pushing the current limits of speed. It’s also backwards-compatible, so if your device only supports lower standards, it can drop to 20Gbps as needed. Whilst this seems like a waste, you are only future proofing.DP 2.1 is designed for both high resolutions and dependable output, which is especially valuable for video editing and gaming at ultra-high resolutions.The cable is compact for its capabilities and works well with Mac, PC, or even VR setups if you need high data transfer with stable display output. I can’t test it at 16K myself to confirm its theoretical resolution, but it has performed flawlessly with 2x 4K displays and 1x 1440p display so far.Pros: Supports up to 16K resolution, DP 2.1 and Thunderbolt 4, 80Gbps, compact design. Cons: Requires a compatible display and equipment to fully utilize, no additional drivers needed.Cons: Just literally the price to be honest.

Does not give 5k2k 120hz on M1 Max MBP.

The cable matters 80gbps usb-c thunderbolt 4 adapter is certainly the first 16k display capable adapter I have genuinely ever seen. In the box, there was a small leaflet, but no actual instructions on the cable itself.The cable itself supports display port 2.1 which in theory supports upto 16k (if you have the right equipment and a 16k display). If not you will have to make do with 8k at 240hz or 4k at 960hz, if your monitor/tv can support that. DP 2.1 also supporst Dp alt mode and usb 4, so should be as fast as thunderbolt 4 can possibly be. Under normal conditions it supports 40gbps in standard mode, but the throughput is actually 80gbs total (thunderbolt 4 uses 8 lanes), so in theory that is as fast as it will get for now. Its also backward compatible too, so if you dont have thunderbolt 4 it can do 20gbps too.i have not as yet seen the spec for usb 5, so cant comment as to whether it will be an improvement, the whole purpose of DP 2.1 apart from higher resolutions is stable quality output that is reliable, espcially for things like video edition and low lag gaming displays at high resolutions.The cable for what you get is pretty tiny, but it can be used with mac/pc/or even VR if you want that extra data as well, with a superior and stable display output, in theory can connect to anything capable of driving a display through usb-c and beyond. I have no way of testing 16k as I dont possess the technology, but the adapter worked well otherwise with my 4k displays without any issues.Pros: UPTO 16k resolution support, dp 2.1 thunderbolt 4, 80gbps. small lightweight.Cons: Needs a display and compatible equipment to drive it, no drivers needed.
