Pros & Cons
Pros
This one seems far more solid, with molded connections and sturdier cable. Both ends seem pretty thick and indestructible. Works as advertised.
The belkin connector is the only one that supports 4k resolution signal at 30hz refresh rate. It's great to have around in case you need to connect a mac (or other) laptop with a mini displayport output to an older monitor or lcd projector that has a ... Read More

The displayport connection is a little thicker than the base of the surface book. Worked great connecting surface pro 3 to a dell monitor. Paired with a microsoft surface book without any issues.
Hdmi cable 15 ft - braided cord. Perfectly complements the new 4k hdmi cable. It's bulkier than the apple brand adapter but it works great.
Highlights
Quality
Worked perfectly and of very good build quality
It is good quality connector and works with my old mac book pro and 32 inch lg monitor.
This cable does not fit into the surface pro 3 docking station mini displayport (dp) without some custom modification.
The device doesn't get hot even after hours of use with my devices.
Price

I tried at least three other adapters but none work as good as this one.
Related products: the belkin dp mini to hdmi adapter with the identical male-end form factor has the same issue.
Bottom line, belkin engineers did an excellent job, but their graphic designers phoned it in.
