Pros

This is awesome! This device works fantastic! Easy to use. It just works.



Cons

Not only does it run extremely hot, to the point of burning your fingers, it becomes slower and slower. I use it only for switching between type-c, and i don't use power inputs. Don't buy this.

Quality


Its user-friendly interface and simple setup made the whole process a breeze, saving me time and effort.

    While the laptop was charging there was no display

    I then connected these devices using the apple thunderport cables you know the outrageously priced cables


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It takes a few seconds for the the computer to handle the kvm switch action and sometimes causes you to need to unlock again but that is no different than manually switching the cable yourself
