Ah, that's one thing I forgot to consider then. Right now I'm using a Hiearcool USB C hub for my connection needs. Would there be power delivery through the HDMI into an adaptor (like the Elebase one) for the Nreal airs?

I also observed same issue .

I bought following from Amazon. It’s working with my M1 macbook.

I have a 2019 MBP that only has USB-C ports, and I just used checkra1n with this USB-C hub I bought a year ago. Seems to have worked fine.

for vpn, i use nordVPN. i've had mixed results but overall worked well whenever i was out of the USA and i wanted to watch USA netflix.

here's a black friday sale link if you're interested: https://nordvpn.com/black-friday/

I have this this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WPTG7NX/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_5WHZGGN77F6M72FPC55F) but any will do. I would want power delivery for as a requirement.

I also have a surface dock 2. Kind of neat with magnetic connector, but expensive.
