Nonda Hub+ mini review: The only dock for a 2015 MacBook and a DisplayPort Apple Cinema Display

Ever since the 2015 MacBook shipped, people have been asking me if they could use an existing Apple Cinema Display with it. The answer, til now, has been no. The Apple Cinema Display has an integral cable with power, USB, and mini-DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (with backwards DisplayPort compatibility). While you can run an HDMI cable to an HDMI or a full-sized DisplayPort input on a monitor, that’s not an option with Apple’s monitors.</p><p>
Now there’s a solution for one very narrow carve out of combinations—given how many emails I’ve received, however, there must be an audience for it. If you have a 2015 (not 2016) MacBook, and you have a DisplayPort version of the Apple Cinema Display (models A1267 and A1316)—not the Thunderbolt version—then the Nonda Hub+ mini (https://www.nonda.co/products/hub-mini-usb-c-hub-for-apple-macbook-12-inch) fits your needs. If you want to drop $150.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3131627/macbook-accessories/nonda-hub-mini-review.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
