Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Using it with my macbook still required me to plug in an additional cable in order to power the laptop. Works great with my two dell laptops (windows 10) my keyboard (wasd code) and mouse (some logitech thing) plug into the usb 2 style ports in front.... Read More

No more unplugging and switching the cables. No more wire swapping etc.

I really like this startech switcher and would highly recommend it. This kvm switch is clutter free and simple because it leverages the usb-c cable as power supply. It's quite, uses no power supply needed and it has edid. There are a couple limitation... Read More

Competitiveness

A 5-star product would have been 6 stars if they would have had.

I really like startech products, so that was definitely one of the deciding factors when i selected this model.

Perhaps this listing once had multiple models.

If you've read reviews on these, i'm sure you know of their limitations.
