Pros & Cons
Pros
It works flawlessly. It works like a champ. It has even more features than they advertise.
The devices are also selectable via a button on the top of the box. There is an included remote control for switching ports. The remote's 2 setting/button actually activates the input settings on my tv itself.
The display information shows 8k resolution, high dynamic range (hdr) colour and variable refresh rate (vrr) running at 60 hz. The chroma test looks as expected, indicating that chroma 4:4:4 was being used. I have it connected to my dual screen ultraw... Read More
Unlike other switches the power is on the back with the rest of the connectors so the front has a cleaner look. These are the cables i https://www. Amazon. Co.

Either the ir receiver on the switch itself is no good (even with the external sensor plugged in), or the remote is outputting the wrong signal. The remote is also incredibly cheaply made. The power plug on the front seems to have no impact on this.
Highlights
Quality
Overall it works fine, picture quality is what you'd expect and i haven't had any problems with it.
The only grievance i have with the product is that the remote's "2" setting/button actually activates the input settings on my tv itself.
Be aware that cable quality and cable length are important.
They also need to be good quality displayport 1.
Packaging/appearance
I have 2 pcs connected to my monitor, but i was afraid of wearing out the joycon controller on my monitor by constantly switching inputs.
Competitiveness
I mounted the switch to the monitor pedestal with a zip-tie as shown in the photo.
Works as expected i only have a 4k 60hz tv but the switch i had before had some issues that this ones solves.
I was trying to push 8-bit 2k @ 170hz through that connection.
I get a 4k 120hz 10 bit hdr signal out to my monitor from every port.

I did install this unit on my bedroom tv because it is located in an armoire so it does not matter that the 4 cables in are on the back and the out cable port is on the front as its all concealed behind my tv in the cabinet

I have a different style for my living room tv where the hdmi switcher has all of the input and the output on the back
