USB 3.0 HDMI KVM Switch 1 Monitors 2 Computers 4K@60Hz KVM for 2 Computers, Sharing, Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, Hard Drives, Printer, with EDID Adapter, 2USB Cable and Driver

As a remote worker, I needed a way to share my peripherals between my work laptop and my personal PC without a mess of cables. This KVM switch has been a game-changer. It’s incredibly simple to set up and does exactly what it’s supposed to do: let me switch my entire setup with a single button press. Pros: Seamless Switching: I use this to move my monitor, mouse, keyboard, webcam, and speakers between two machines. It handles the transition flawlessly. Easy Setup: It was unbelievably simple to get everything plugged in and running right out of the box. Expandable with a Hub: A huge plus is that you can plug a USB dongle/hub into one of the ports. I was able to connect multiple items to one hub and only use a single USB slot on the KVM, which really helped manage my devices. Compact & Effective: It has a small footprint but handles a lot of "heavy lifting" for a dual-computer desk. Cons: 60Hz Refresh Limit: A major pointer for gamers: this unit is capped at 60Hz. If your personal machine is a high-end gaming rig, you might want to look for a KVM that can push a higher refresh rate to avoid a drop in performance. Audio Limitation: I ended up getting a second Bluetooth headset (one for each machine) to keep things simple, as switching a single headset through the unit was the only thing that didn't fit my specific workflow. The Verdict: If you are tired of unplugging and replugging cables every time you clock out for the day, this is a fantastic value. It’s reliable and easy to use—just keep the 60Hz limit in mind if you’re a competitive gamer. For a standard work-from-home and casual gaming setup, it makes the daily transition so much faster and cleaner.

The USB devices worked with this switch, but not the monitors. The same setup with the equivalent HDMI-equipped switch worked fine. I'll have to try it with other monitors DP to HDMI adapters. I used a (1) desktop PC with one HDMI output and one DP output and (2) a modern Dell laptop docking station with dual DP outputs. Both monitors tested had HDMI inputs, so were adapted to DP. I tried different DP to HDMI adapters for these tests.

The product works well. I have an ultra-wide monitor, and am able to get good video from both my desktop & my laptop (connected thru a docking station). I like the rocker power switch, which lets me minimize my electricity usage when I'm not using my computers. Overall, works as advertized.

I had pretty low expectations for a dual monitor kvm, given comments I've seen online. This has worked excellently. First off, it was smaller than I had a realized, and it fits neatly on my desk. In terms of ports, all of them work without issue. It might be nice to have another USB slot but 3 is sufficient for my wired keyboard, mouse, and webcam. There's no audio output plug which I would have liked, though I'm not sure if that's something I could realistically ask this kind of device to do. Anyway, your computers can send audio to the monitors over HDMI. The button on the device to switch computers is physically robust. It takes a few seconds for my whole setup to switch, which I think is mostly on the end of the computer suddenly seeing new devices. Usually works without issue. There are some limitations to refresh rate and resolution. Both my monitors are 1440p, so I can run them both at a maximum of 100Hz, which is lower than what they're capable of. Overall, it's a worthwhile tradeoff for convenience, and I can run a secondary displayPort cable if I want, to switch to for gaming.

It works very well. The only drawback is that the monitor connected to the USB-C is not recognized when the notebook is turned on with everything connected. This is a problem that occurs frequently. Everything else is great! It switches quickly between devices, the USBs don't disconnect when switching, it looks good, seems to be of good quality, and includes cables that look very good. It does its job, but I'm not sure if I would recommend it considering the problem of having everything connected and the devices turned off, which when you turn them on, it doesn't recognize the monitor (This could be a problem with my notebook, I don't know). Otherwise, excellent.
