Q: VGA and HDMI

I am going to buy a new monitor. My firend suggested me to buy a TV instead. I have an ipad 4 and a macbook air. I also have lightning to VGA and mini display to VGA. Most of the TVs have HDMI input not VGA. I am planning to get a VGA to HDMI converter to fix it. Will it work?

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

A:

Instead of getting a VGA to HDMI converter, get a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable, so you don't need a converter and there are more chances to make your TV work with your MacBook Air. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241

 

The main benefit of using HDMI is the possibility to use a HD resolution on the TV if it allows you to use one of those
