As per title, I want to buy a USB->VGA/HDMI adaptor but saw some responses elsewhere with mixed answers.
Can anyone confirm if the laptop hardware support that?

    I bought a USB-C to HDMI cable and use it to connect to my 1920x1080 monitor. It works perfectly.

    Hi Jack,
    The model number is SW512-52-363J, probably the older version of Switch 5.
    It has USB 3.1 Gen1 as advertised.

    Thanks.

    Yes, this model will support HDMI or VGA out with these two accessory cables or their equivalents. Jack E/NJ

    @myozawoo  Some chargers ***claim*** to charge the SW512-52's thru its type C USB port. But no 100% guarantees they will. They're cheap enough so I'd probably try one to see if the claim is true. Jack E/NJ
