A rarely encountered situation in technology world: DVI cables can connect to modern HDMI port TVs with simple adapters. This compatibility that Engadget examines brings a few important restrictions, while the old equipment still extends imdad hand to those who want to use.

Although DVI-HDMI adapters offer a cheap and practical solution, users should not enter very high expectations:

  • DVI-HDMI adapters can be purchased at the level of tens pounds and the installation is extremely bass Tags
  • The DVI ports that are still active from old computers or graphic cards can be used in this way
  • When the HDMI standard is designed, the backward compatibility with DVI was thought
  • Even if the connection is successfully installed, image quality can be lower than the original HDMI connection
  • Sound transfer is not possible; only the video signal is transmitted

The presence of these adapters is a good example in the technology industry. Even after years of production, old devices can be integrated with modern ecosystem thanks to design foresight. However, the DVI-HDMI bridge is basically adapted to a new environment of an old standard.

As a result, if you have old DVI cables in your home, these adapters are worth trying. But it is recommended to switch to HDMI or new technologies for a quality and full functional experience.
