There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
As far as lag is concerned, I have NONE! I know there were some questions about that. Asking if there was lag when gaming. I have played some pretty fast-paced games. I also played some of Destiny, The Division, and Friday the 13th. There wasn't any lag from any of the games. I didn't notice any, anyway. Then again, I'm not that much of a nitpicker. If it was there, it was so minuscule that you would have to be really looking for it with a fine-tooth comb in order to find it.
Price is perfect for what you get! I love the fact that this is a cheap device with great performance. I am so looking forward to playing with this on a regular basis. I am thankful that this was out there. It was either buy this $15 device, or drop about $1500 to $2000 on a more high-end 4K Television that would give me the option to use more than one HDMI port for HDMI Color UHD (which is the name of the setting that you have to have turned to "on" in the picture settings for Samsung 4K TV's to get the HDR feature).
But stay tuned. In a month from now, I will be reviewing this product again, or updating this particular post, to let you know exactly how well this product WORKS. Because I have heard some reviews, such as..."this splitter would make red lines/dots on the screen", or "no sound from second port", or "Ordered at the beginning of May (2017). The device stopped working a few days ago" when it was ordered a month earlier. The good reviews outweigh the bad ones though. Maybe they just got defective products. I don't know.
But yes. I use the HDMI Splitter for both my XBox One S and my PS4 Pro. Both work amazing on my console. I will post pictures of the TV resolution on both of these just to show you that it does output perfectly for both consoles. As long as you are using a 4K TV that supports 4K resolution, as well as HDR.
Check back in a month! So far, I love this product!

I was really happy to discover the above. My old switcher would have a 1-second disconnect during the switch, causing Windows to forget the display position and of course dump all windows/icons on my primary monitor. This little guy does it the right way.
I have 2 monitors connected to my PC. I wanted to switch outputs from my 2nd monitor to my TV. I was previously using a true splitter, where both the Monitor and TV displayed simultaneously, but only one would be on at a time so it doesn't matter. I ran into a problem where when my TV turned on, it wouldn't pass through audio - I'd have to reconnect the HDMI at the TV. So the switcher button makes that easier. I don't have the audio problem any more. With my 1->2 scenario, the thing is powering itself (or I suppose my PC is powering it via native HDMI). I suppose it's not doing any upscaling or duplication so it doesn't really need power, just a logic switch. My previous splitter needed power injected obviously so I'm even saving a power outlet (the less cable the better).
The video quality seems on-par for 1080p. I haven't tried 4k at all (the monitor is 1080 the TV is 4k, so I'm not sure how it would even behave there). I have also not tried a high-FPS game. Other than those 2 unknowns, the device is performing flawlessly and I would definitely recommend it. I will update this post if it breaks or anything changes.
Pro tip: consider the length of cables you want from your [source]->[desired location of switch]->[display]. I didn't do this and ended up with a 6' cable running from PC->Switch, which is about 5' more than I need, so stuck with a coil of cable while waiting for shipment, then I have to reconnect. Plan ahead, be done sooner ;)
1) Customer service is amazing. They read and replied to my review and tried to rectify by sending a replacement part, which arrived quickly and worked a little better than the original.
2) Upgraded my review from 2 Stars to 4 Stars
3) This is a Switcher which requires power to work. This is not a Splitter, as another reviewer kindly pointed out.
This Switcher gets power from both units attached to it. The reason for it powering down is due to one of the units going on powersave, thus cutting off the power source. However, when fully powered, it is an excellent Switcher as the HD quality from both Blu Ray and gaming Console are superb.
If you can, disable the Power Save functions in order to allow this unit to work uninterrupted. Otherwise, just be aware that you'll have to keep both units powered on for it to work. The video quality is worth the inconvenience for me, though I may need to get a splitter later. unfortunately, this may also mean a loss of signal quality.
****original review below*****
There is a trick to using this switcher and it's something that I wish I knew beforehand: both units need to be powered on for this to work.
For example, I have an X-Box 360 and a blu-ray player plugged in. To us the blu-ray player, the X-Box 360 needs to be connected and turned on. However, if the X-Box 360 powers down due to power saving features, the blu-ray player will disconnect from the TV. Similarly, if i'm playing a game on the X Box and the blu-ray player likewise shuts down due to not being used, the X-Box will disconnect from the TV.
Because of this, i cannot recommend this unit unless you are able to provide constant power through the unit.
However, this unit operates very well and the HD quality is superb.
Unfortunately, this is not the best unit for my situation and I will need to find an alternative part.

I had purchased 2 other switches before this one and neither worked well. They either switched automatically when they shouldn't, or would only work with 1 device powered on. Since this one is a mechanical switch, there's no automation, but the connection is much simpler, and therefore more compatible.
For my purpose, it's a perfect fit.
Le produit en lui même semble d'excellente qualité, et arrive très bien emballé.
L'utilisation est relativement simple : 2 port HDMI d'un côté, 1 port HDMI de l'autre. En fonction de ses besoins, on branche soit 2 sources vers une sortie, ou, comme moi, 1 source vers 2 sorties. Le switch étant bi-directionnel, cela fonctionne dans les 2 sens.
Une petite led verte s'allume pour signaler la présence de signal vidéo et quel sortie (ou entrée) est utilisée. Pas besoin d’alimentation externe, le switch est autonome.
Un petit bouton permet en une simple pression de passer de l'un à l'autre.
Produit relativement simple, mais qui fonctionne parfaitement et qui répond parfaitement au besoin qu'on peut attendre.
