Do I need the Microsoft Display Dock to use Continuum?

[anon(5383410)]

Can I just use a USB-C to HDMI adapter to plug it into the monitor? If I can just use a $10 adapter I'd rather go that route then the $100 display dock (which isn't in stock anyway).

Yes you can; WC had an article about it and how it worked with a CableMatters USBC-HDMI

It can also be done wirelessly through Miracast if you have a monitor/tv with that capability.

i know this is late, but if you own a Xbox One and are a part of the Preview program, you can get the Wireless Display (preview) app. This will use Continuum just as it would if you were using the dock.

I tried an Apple USB-C to HDMI adapter and it did not work.

the wireless display adaptor also works well

Anybody ever try the Anker premium Usb c hub to see if it can take the place of the dock?
