Reviewer has zero complaints. Would recommend the product and the seller. Only issue is that my zoom and skype installed on mac wouldn't work with my external camera.
Cons
The usb port feel really cheap and are always disconnecting for no reason. Screen flickers all the time and turns off intermittently. My work consists of talking with clients so losing visual and input while on a call is quite frustrating.
Switching displays sometimes takes 2-3 attempts before the monitor can properly negotiate a signal with the pc.
Highlights
Quality
This kvm switch is simple and effective, letting me handle two laptops with one keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
Setup is easy with the included usb and hdmi cables, and it switches between devices smoothly.
Unplugging and re-plugging everything from the back fixes it without restarting anything.
I was looking for a simple solution to pair two computers with peripherals and this kvm has filled that role.
Price
Replace in seconds my broken dvi kvm as a cheaper price.
Sometimes there's a little lag switching, but for the price i'm not complaining!
Not a big deal - just a minor annoyance and i don't think you can ask for more for the money.
Shipping
It came with hdmi cables and was simple and fast to hook up.
Packaging/appearance
Comes with usb cables to connect to the pcs, however if you have a mac you will need a usb a to usb c adapter.
