Does the job well
Using it to switch between 2 laptops and a mini PC. Works really well and faster than other things I'd tried so far. Sometimes requires reset as it may not cope with bluetooth wake-up but overall I'm very happy with it. Good quality, looks nerdy-stylish and helps quick-switching between different machines :)

Good, not perfect
I purchased this to easily switch monitor (2K/1444p/60hz) and keyboard and mouse (both wired) between a Windows PC, Linux desktop, and Mac laptop and while it works quite well, there are a few caveats.Pros:* Setup is pretty simple* It is a neat box, occupies very little space* Looks good although this is subjective* Switching is fast and responsiveCons:* If you are a developer or regularly use control keys it can and will switch when you don't want it to. To combat this I turn off the "hotkey switch" during coding sessions. It's an annoyance but not insurmountable* If the linux desktop puts the monitor to sleep the other devices cannot wake it. I don't know the technical reason for this - to mitigate I've had to set the linux box to never put the monitor to sleep.My previous KVM switch used scroll lock as the hot key - IMO this is a much better choice over ctrl (who uses scroll lock?) - this is my biggest gripe. Otherwise it's a small and nimble KVM switch that I'm keeping and using daily.

Fantastic HDMI-KVM with some limitations
Good- Straight forward to set up and use- You can also plug another USB hub into the box and further extend the shared USN devicesNeutral- As stated it doesn't come with the USB Type-A male-to-male cables so you will need to buy these before you can actually use the equipment- Will only pass through up to 60fps (as stated) which is fine for office work, but limiting for games. Not a major issue as modern graphics cards have only just started implementing HDMI 2.1 which provides 4k120fps. You will still want to use Display Port for most older GPUs if you want high frame rates for games.- Comes with an IR remote and IR wired extender.Bad- When running two or more devices (e.g. a PC and laptop) at the same time, when you switch to one, the other computer experiences a display disconnected event - when returning back you can occasionally see windows and USB devices do not reconnect cleanly. This can be resolved by switching back and forth between inputs until it resolves itself - this maybe an issue with my wired keyboard and mouse that have higher USB power requirements. It's a shame the box cannot offer a "headless" signal to prevent the disconnect event happening.- It should be possible to use a set of keyboard shortcuts to switch inputs, but this does not registerOverall, really happy - even with the limitations.

Four PC's - One Screen, Keyboard, Mouse, Headphone, Microphone, Camera - All works
Don't often write reviews but felt I had to for this one. Used to have an old analogue Belkin SOHO - until one day it started glitzing and then "pfff" and wee smell of smoke - its done says me !So my need - four PC's - ranging from old i3-2 laptop, two i5-11 laptops and a desktop i5-10 - all using onboard intel graphic. I wanted to have one screen, keyboard, mouse, headphone, microphone and camera - all active on all devices with just easy switching.In short this item does that exactly. HDMI and USB from each device manages the keyboard, mouse and screen. Audio in/out manages the headphone and mic - and lastly usb input manages the camera.All elements work on all boxes - with no need for reconfigure when switching. All four have resolution from 1280 to 1920, using onboard intel graphics feeding to a 1920 screen (so can't speak of 4k operation). The switching - circa 2 secs each time - manages the resolution changes seamlessly, and desktop icons remain where they should be. No crossover issues with the camera or headphone/mic.When first assembled the screen display was a bit "washed out" - but that just needed the intel control centre settings configured correctly - and then all vibrant colour displayed spot on.When using old analogue Belkin used to get screen jitters quite regular - but using the digital HDMI connect - all display is now rock solid.Box itself is nice solid metal - all plug-in connections solid.Lastly the remote control to change device - I thought I'll never use, I'll just do the "press the button" process a la Belkin - within five minutes I was using it, and now use it every time to change. It is IR so has to point to device - but no biggie - and frees up the awkward turn round to press button, turn back, realise you pressed the wrong one, turn back etc etc.All in all - this does exactly what it promises - and after a month or so of usage - would recommend to anyone seeking multi-box KVM.

Great when working
One PC, three laptops connected ... brilliant piece of kit for the first three months, then started to get black screens once or twice a day .... now every few hours. Extremely irritating especially while working. Would have loved to give this 5 stars but basically useless after a few months.....and can't return because policy only allows a couple of months.Can you give a product a zero rating ? - all USB ports now dead - basically a very expensive HDMI switch .....Seller supplied new KVM and so far working well - changed rating to 3 start for good service - will amend star rating in 6 months if still working as designed
