"This is perfect for hooking up to the TV in the living room to watch Google Movie/TV shows. It shows that it is not charging when hooked up with a 2.1A Sansung charger, but it is charging. Great device!!"

Good Product

"I bought this for my Galaxy Note 10.1 for teaching purposes. This product is not compatible with Galaxy Tab 2 apparently.
The big advantage is that the quality is very impressive, resolution is impressive on our 45 inch Samsung LED tv. Sound is good. Change to a different HDMI port on your tv if you are having problems e.g. blue screen.
Note that it doesn't always mirror exactly what is on the screen, for instance, the YouTube app videos are automatically made full screen when on your tablet you can view comments at the same time. It Is a bonus, but this can be avoided if you use the browser. S pen cursor does not show up, which is a bonus really as it can be distracting when using s note for teaching.
Downside is that you need to have it connected to a power source to work. I connected it via the USB port to my computer, so it actually charges at the same time.
Instead of connecting the power cable to where it asks me, I will plug in my Samsung USB adapter I bought separately (to connect memory sticks to etc.) then I'm going to use a 4 port USB hub to see if I can branch off my wireless mouse, keyboard and PS3 controller. Would be awesome for playing games like GTA from the Android Market."
Pros: Durable, Lightweight, hd quality, good sound
Cons: expensive for what it is, needs external power source, mirrored screen can be a bit shaky, lots of wires
I would recommend this to a friend!

Borderline Useless

PostedDecember 20, 2011
"Would be a good product if it could charge the Tab while connected. Instead of being enjoyable to use it becomes a hassle. I want to plug it in, listen to some music and then forget about it until the morning and then have the tab charged up and ready for the day. Impossible with this design."
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor design

No Audio from HDMI Adapter

PostedApril 11, 2013
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
PostedApril 11, 2013
"Samsung advertises audio streaming from the Galaxy Tab to a compatible HDTV as a "Feature" of the powered HDMI cable (see http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EPL-3PHPBEGSTA-features).
There has been no satisfactory response to similar questions posted to-date by other people about no sound when using the powered HDMI adapter. Connecting a separate audio cord from the Note 10.1's headphone jack into the amp or TV in addition to the HDMI should be unnecessary with a HDMI connector capable of both video and audio.
We would like the advertised audio to go with the video when using Samsung's HDMI adapter."
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no audio
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Too many cords

PostedMarch 27, 2013
PostedMarch 27, 2013
"This product was very disappointing and I will be returning it tomorrow. At first I thought it was excellent that I could still plug into my charger if my batteries were low. Then when I got home I soon found out that the adapter will not work unless it is plugged into the charger. The end result is a lot of cables everywhere and not a user friendly experience."
Cons: Did not meet expectations, requires use of charger

Don't waste your money!

"Not only is this adapter not practical, it transfers the video with poor quality. In order to use it, you need to also have the power cord plugged in. You cannot use a stand or keyboard as the adapter would get angled and ruin the port. Waste of money and time, frustrating with all the wires needed. Only transmits video does not mirror what you are doing on your tablet!"
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, Not high def, Too big, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
