I tried using an HDMI adapter (the kind you is find on these tiny USB C hubs to bring along your laptop) for playing proper video and the sound was missing everything under like 200hz, unwatchable. It’s clearly made to show spreadsheets and PowerPoints and not much else.
The output is capped at 4k 30hz on the cheaper ones, and I assume the cheaper ones wouldn’t have particularly good audio.
HDMI still has the edge over all but the very latest version of USB C, at least with high end equipment. But, it works fine for PowerPoint, which is exactly what I’m using it for.
