Does my HP Spectre x360 have: DisplayPort Alternate mode?

[kpkp]

Hi there,

I'd like to connect an external monitor to my HP Spectre x360 13'' I purchased in May 2017.

Before I buy the USB C 3.1 to HDMI cable, I'd like to know if my laptop has DisplayPort Alternate mode. 

How do I find out if it has? 🙂

Thanks in advance.

Hi @kpkp,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

Thank you for posting your query in this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to know whether there is an alternate mode to connect an external display other than display port.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

Please let me know the exact model and the product number of your computer so that I can provide you accurate information.

Meanwhile, I would like to inform you that if you have a USB type C Thunderbolt 3 port on your computer then it does support the display and you can connect an external monitor using the port.

Below is the picture of USB type C port for your reference.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
