HDMI Switch, BENFEI 4K HDMI Switcher 2 Input 1 Output, 1 Input 2 Output, Supports 4K 3D HD 1080P Compatible for Firestick, Xbox PS4 Roku HDTV

On a 4k compatible TV, it works great with the Fire TV Stick 4k and the Nintendo Switch. One issue I encountered was when I went to buy HDMI cables to go with it. The Fire TV did not turn on when I first turned on the switch. My brother, who is a tech whiz, When I showed him that the switch was supposed to support the Fire TV, savvy was convinced it was the switch itself. We replaced the HDMI cable, and voilà, everything was working again. So, when you buy this, make sure you get an HDMI cable that can do the following: br>br> 1. br>br> 4K capable (as are most TVs nowadays)br>2. HDCP (High Definition Copy Protection) compatible (means the cable is compatible with HD Copy Protection). Most media players these days won't work with cables that aren't HDCP compatible (at least, that's been my experience). According to my brother, Amazon Basics products are of high quality. I should just stick with them because they are of high quality. As a result, I returned the HDMI cable I had purchased and replaced it with an Amazon Basics cable, which worked perfectly. Hopefully, this will prevent others from making the same mistake I did when buying an HDMI cable for this unit. br>br>Please give this review a thumbs up if it was helpful.

What do you have to lose? To purchase, simply click the Buy button. It isn't particularly elegant, but it serves its purpose. You could get one that costs more, but why would you want to? It's nothing more than a toggle switch. Is it going to look good with your drapes? It's not a switch, it's a lever. Does it support RGB and is it in sync with your case? It's only a switch, after all. It's a low-cost switch that gets the job done. It isn't a major operation.

There are two televisions and one PlayStation 4 in our apartment. My son, who is convinced that the, prefers to use a larger screen. The difference in the time it takes a large screen picture to move by 00000001/10 of a millisecond is somehow detrimental to his gaming mastery. Anyway, I decided to err on the side of caution and buy this switch because I was worried that the HDMI ports on both TVs would wear out if he kept removing the HDMI cable from one and putting it in the other, and back and forth. It does exactly what it claims. There was an initial drop in picture quality, but that cleared up after a little wiggling of the wires, and the picture is as crisp and clear as it has always been, and we have no complaints. I'd buy from this seller again because of their excellent customer service.

It does what it says. When there are two HDMI inputs on a single TV with only one HDMI input, this feature comes in handy.

Using the two-way communication system When it comes to a desktop computer, two monitors are far superior to one. My main computer (A) has two HDMI outputs, which allows me to use two monitors at the same time. Another nearby desktop computer (B) has two HDMI outputs and can handle two monitors as well. I only have two monitors, and there isn't enough room on my desk for any more. I need to share the monitors between the computers one at a time, which necessitates the use of TWO of these HDMI switches. They are reasonably priced. Each switch controls one monitor at all times and can switch its input from one of the desktop computers to the other. When BOTH switches are set to computer A, computer A is displayed in dual-screen mode on both monitors. Very nice monitor mode. The same is true for computer B. The only trick is to press the buttons on both switches at about the same time to switch from one computer to the other. br>br>It works fine on Windows 10. br>br> We'll have to wait and see what happens with Windows 11. Perhaps I simply require a larger desk. br>br>Or perhaps I simply require a larger desk.

This was precisely what I had been looking for! Instead of having to keep unplugging something to use the other, I can use this device to connect two of my game systems and something else all at once! You will need to provide your own HDMI cable to connect it to your television, but it is well worth the investment. You must press a button on the device to switch to either port that an HDMI cord is connected to, so make sure you select the correct one. This is a lot more cost-effective than purchasing one of those $30-plus DVD players. I'm going to say 40 from Walmart or Target! I would strongly advise anyone who enjoys connecting multiple devices to their television, as I do, to purchase this.

We had both cable and the PS4 plugged into our TV, and every time we wanted to switch between these interfaces, we had to unplug and replug the respective HDMI cables. br>It wasn't difficult, but it was inconvenient. I'm not sure why Amazon recommended the HDMI splitter to me (like a creeper), but I'm glad I did. Instead of unplugging and replugging, I now simply press a button and BOOM - everything is back to normal. The PS4 replaces the cable box on the TV. It's actually quite brilliant. It makes things easier for me. And I'm always looking for ways to make things easier for myself. br>br>Note: If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try using the words "creative To connect this device to the television, you will need an additional HDMI cable. There are a lot of HDMI cables, but believe me when I say it's worth it.

My monitor is set to 1080p. It serves as the primary display for my mini computer and as a secondary display for a laptop computer. This switch was purchased to avoid having to switch the hdmi cable from the mini pc to the laptop whenever I wanted to use either device. Setup was simple - Connect the monitor's cable to the output (single port), and the mini pc's and laptop's hdmi cables to the inputs (dual ports). It's easy to switch - just do it. Toggling between the two devices is as simple as pressing a button. When you turn off and on the devices, they stay on the side that the last device used was on; there is no default side. The picture quality is not harmed in any way. This purchase has exceeded my expectations, and I would strongly recommend it.
