To add to the answers so far. HDMI cable will carry sound and video with it. With a SVGA cable you will also have to run an audio cable from your laptop to your tv. HDMI cable is a better hook up for what you are wanting to do if the port is available on your laptop.

Forgive me for the typical technical support response...."it depends." Look on your laptop (and HDTV). This cable connects to a VGA Port - a square looking port with 3 rows of 5 little circles (15 pins). The shape looks like someone squished the bottom of a square much like the front grill on a jeep. More and more, this is not being put on current HDTVs. If you don't see that port, look for an HDMI port. The shape resembles a squished top hat (google image search). I would wager that if your TV is no older than 6 years, it has an HDMI port.

I didn't hook up a laptop but I hooked up my roku to the HDMI slot it came in @ 720p I went to my roku settings and changed the setting to 1080p-try changing your laptop setting

It should work without problems I have a laptop connected to my HDTV using this same cable, and everything works flawlessly.

tell me what outputs your laptop has. if nothing else...your LT probably has hdmi out...run that to your tv direct and use the headphone out and an adaptor cable to run that to the hk

NO. The vga end of this cable is the female Vga socket, the same socket that you have on your laptop. The cable is designed to plug into a HDMI output on a laptop and then hook to an older style VGA monitor cable. Great for all the new laptops only have HDMI outputs.

Yes. You can use this cord to connect your pc or laptop with VGA port to a TV with HDMI port.

I bought 4 different cords all for the purpose of being able to use a older model plasma t v to download netflix movies! I was unable to connect so I bought a new t v and now I find out that netflixs makes it difficult to find movies so I would not be able to help.

I doubt it. I was never able to get the device to work. I gave up on it and hooked an HDMI cable to my laptop instead. With a wireless keyboard and mouse I've been able to watch shows on Netflix and purchase others on Amazon

Works great, have the same set-up and use it to watch netflix and youtube on several different tv's. You will need an hdmi cable to connect to the tv.

No. This is an HDMI cable, requiring and HDMI port. They are definitely not the same thing, or even close.

It is DVI to HDMI .. yes it connects a laptop to a TV for example .. but u need to make sure your laptop supports DVI output directly .. if not, ull need to buy the DVI to VGA adaptor because 90% laptops has a VGA output for sure .

I really do not know, to be honest. I purchased the HDMI cable after a rigorous search here on Amazon and then when I found this particular cable I thought that I had found the real thing but boy, was I wrong. The cable doesn't work at all. Once I connect the cable with my laptop and to the my TV, the screen on my laptop will immediately turn blue. As soon as the screen turns blue on my laptop, saved screensavers and background images from my laptop will start showing on the TV screen. The things I want to view on my TV from the laptop will not be showing instead these saved images will be showing. So this, to me, is a total waste of money.

Yes, provided that your laptop has to hdmi port, you can hook it up to the hdmi port on your hdtv and have the luxury of having a larger screen to watch on.

No - this cable is for connecting a Samsung Ultrabook to an older analog (before digital HDMI) input connectors found on laptop projectors and a few older (10 years +) TV's

Yes, with the proper cable. This laptop has video out via the "mini-displayport" connector on the right-hand side. You can get a cable that will adapt this to an HDMI input on your Tv/Monitor.

Yes, if u have the HDMI outlet on your laptop, make sure that is a regular HDMI but not the minor one
