BK-202A

This is my second OREI HDMI Matrix 2x2 switcher. I have 2 televisions in my home bar. I have my cable HDMI connected to one input and a Roku in the other. The outputs go to the 2 TVs. I can have cable on either TV with Roku on the other, or both TVs on either signal. The sound from the input is provided to the TV via the HDMI cable (the optical sound / sound extractor are not required). The only hiccup that I had was when I first connected the TVs, only one had sound. I swapped the output ports to the opposite TVs and now it works without any issues.

I purchased this to replace my Astro PS5 adapter since I was unable to achieve 1440p while using my A40 TR with mixamp. Worked as expected. I still need to play with the switches to see what is the optimal setting. I highly recommend if you are looking for an audio extractor and using multiple devices with multiple displays.

Bought 3 cheaper devices for 4k120 etc splitting and switch setup but ALL of them cut out or completely dropped the connection continuously. Finally bit the bullet and saw this on reddit but reviews seemed mixed. Honestly if you're having issues with this just update it through port or change EDID with instructions in booklet. Found out after setup that this one can also SHOW 2 DISPLAYS AT ONCE. Currently using with pc, Xbox Series X and 3 monitors. 3rd one is across room on Racing rig and needed a proper beefy device for signal/sound switching without completely doing cable swaps every time. Just wish service port was USB-C but not a deal breaker at all. EDID could definitely be more user friendly and should be coded into future remotes so can be changes remotely. PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS ESPECIALLY EDID PORTION. AS I ALMOST RETURNED because default EDID is 111 and that caused my monitors to switch modes constantly and flicker/drop connection.

I’ve had the thing for two days. It cannot handle 4K 120 Hz for very long before the unit sends no signal to your display anymore. Don’t buy this listen to me on this one bad product.

If you're looking to play next gen consoles at higher resolutions / frame rate then this is the product for you. I can confirm I am able to play on 1440p 120hz without issue using this matrix. If you're like me, you'll find there's a lot of products on here that claim they can do this, but few actually do. This is one of them. Worked right out of the box with no issues. Highly recommend.

This is a fantastic device that acts like a Swiss army knife for people with multiple displays. On Sundays, it's fantastic for watching different football games on each display. I have an Nvidia Shield as one input device and an Apple TV as another, so this box allows me to output both sources to their own display, and switch the sources/displays with the press of a button instead of having to re-wire my HDMI cables any time I want to make a change. This alone is fantastic, but this matrix also packs HDMI 2.1 support, and can pass through Dolby Vision and HDR10, which is fantastic as someone who also loves to watch movies. I'd also like to add that CEC has seemed to work for me with this matrix. It's not officially listed as supported anywhere, but turning on my Nvidia Shield/Apple TV has also resulted in the television that the device is "connected" to also powering on, which is great and extremely convenient since it means you don't need to use multiple remotes. The only drawback I have seen is issues with ARC and eARC, but that should not be problematic unless you need those features for your sound system. I would also recommend that users use some kind of command strip or zip tie to keep this box in place. It is much smaller and lighter than what I would have anticipated (I hadn't looked at the dimensions before ordering) and with so many HDMI cables connected to it, it might not sit perfectly flat in place without some help. Overall, it's a fantastic product I am happy to recommend.

The missing part, the control

OREI has been my go-to brand for switchers and more due to its excellent quality control (I haven't encountered any issues so far) and durability. This switch has consistently delivered the functionality I need for audio and video needs. With support for up to 4K resolution at 120Hz, it provides impressive visual clarity and smooth playback of high-definition content. Whether I'm watching movies or my brother is playing graphics-intensive games, it consistently delivers a crisp and vibrant display. The inclusion of an audio extractor is a valuable feature, as it allows me to extract the audio signal from the HDMI source and connect it to external speakers or audio systems. This significantly enhances the audio experience by enabling connectivity with dedicated audio devices or amplifiers. Additionally, the switch's IR (Infrared) functionality allows for convenient remote control operation. After using it for over 9 months, I can confidently recommend this switch for anyone in need of a 4K HDMI Matrix Switch 2 X 2. OREI continues to impress me with its reliable products, and this switch is no exception. It provides the desired functionality, excellent visual performance, and added convenience through its audio extraction and remote control capabilities.
