    I think I’ve had one HDMI connector get bent out of shape, and I’ve broken 2 or 3 DP cables due to the locking bit. And I’ve only been using DP for 5 years and have used HDMI for >10 (15?). The DP lock is solving a problem I’ve never had, while creating one I never considered to be an issue.

    So I honestly prefer HDMI in general, and I’d have no reason to care about DP if HDMI standards people weren’t such thugs. But alas, DP has basically won the PC, so I guess I’ll get used to the clip.

      You can get DP cables without the lock
