Why is my external monitor pixelated when connected to my tablet?

Asked By TechWiz42 On

I'm having trouble with my LG ultrawide monitor when I connect it to my Lenovo Idea Tab Pro using a new USB-C to HDMI cable. The screen looks pixelated despite setting the recommended resolution on the tablet for projection mode. I've verified that the tablet supports external monitor connections. I've tried several solutions like rebooting the tablet, adjusting monitor settings, using different cables, and making sure the tablet's software is up to date. Interestingly, using an incorrect display resolution slightly improves the pixelation, but the display doesn't fill the entire monitor screen. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've included a link to show the pixelation issue: https://imgur.com/a/QBv34Di

To add to that, firmware mismatches can really complicate the connection. You mentioned the monitor driver from October 2020 – it’s good you tried to update it! Make sure you're using the right method for installation; sometimes, uninstalling the old driver first helps. Also, have you checked to see if you need an active adapter if you're using USB-C? That could potentially solve your pixelation problem.

It sounds like you might be dealing with a sync issue rather than just pixelation. This can happen due to hardware or driver problems. Sometimes, firmware updates are necessary for either the tablet or monitor to fix these kinds of issues. I suggest you check the detailed specs for both your monitor and tablet, especially focusing on the resolutions and refresh rates they support. Also, it's worth noting that some cables can cause issues, so if you’ve got specifics on the cable you’re using, that could help troubleshoot further!
