    I have now been to 3 stores selling electronics and computer peripherals asking for an HDMI to Micro HDMI cable or adapter and each time they give me a HDMI to Micro USB cable saying it is the same.
    When I look online at website selling them the micro HDMI indeed looks like a Micro USB.

    Still I can'thelp thinking that is not right and it should be a dedicated cable. I can't believe that on all the post about HDMI on this forum not one mentions micro HDMI or did I enter the wrong search data.

    The question thus is. Is the Micro HDMI the same as Micro USB or is it definitely a seperate dedicated plug (Micro HDMI). Thank you.

    Micro HDMI and Micro USB are not the same things.
    Hi there anyway, and welcome! Haven't seen this is your first message :)
