Connect my gam consoles to one tv
I bought this as I had five gaming consoles to connect to my television. It is easy to setup and to use. The remote is large enough to hit the correct button to switch to the correct line as they are spaced out on the remote. Red light- green light indicators tell you exactly the status of the device and which line you are currently using. Two thumbs up!

Perfect HDMI switch and it does what it's supposed to do
Originally, I had an AV receiver handle all my HDMI inputs, but about a year ago I decided to simplify and switch to a soundbar with ARC input. The problem I immediately had was a lack of HDMI ports on my TV. It only had 3 HDMI inputs, and 1 just got taken by the soundbar (soundbar did not have it's own input). I originally tried one from Monoprice, but the auto sensing was horrible, and would sometimes override the the remote input. This 5 port model has been a perfect replacement... simply because I can turn OFF the auto sensing. The included remote is not really that great and I would have to mash in the button to get it to switch, but I use it with a Logitech Harmony Remote Hub, and the control has been flawless there. In today's world of always on devices, auto sensing can be difficult to control properly. I have a Roku, Chromecast, and a Nintendo Switch connected. These are technically always on and on my old switch it would randomly decide to change inputs. On this switch... I have not had an issue with auto sensing off Picture quality is perfect, though admittedly, I still have a 1080p display. I went with a 4k model since I plan to upgrade in the near future (finally) to 4k

Working well so far
I have only had a short time and can't speak to longevity so can't give five. This works so much better than any other I've had prior.

Finally a switch that works well!
I went through 4 hdmi switches from other companies before I found this one. All the other ones had something that just wouldn't work with my setup, but this one is great! If you are using an always on device like Google tv you need to turn off the auto switching feature and make sure you are using the proper cables. I've had no issues with this unit and I was able to program my sideclick IR remote to cycle through the devices with one button! Currently running a Nintendo Switch, Lenovo Legion gaming laptop, Google Chromecast TV, Raspberry Pie, and one empty port. No black screens, no jumping between devices.

Great product
It does exactly what itโs intended for; I was able to hook up five HDMI devices into a TV with limited ports. The install was easy. Itโs pretty much plug and play. The design of the casing is sturdy and heavy enough that it doesnโt easily slide around on the table against the weight and pull of the cords. So far the video and audio quality seems to have not lost any quality vs plugging the device directly into the TV.

It worked great for a very short period.
The product looks good, and we thought it would work out like our previous older generation that lasted over 7 years. The setup was simple, and it worked great until it died on us without any warning. This model blew out in less than 15 months of minimal use without any external electrical problem. Not worth the price or the headache for such a short time. Luckily, we had purchased an extended warranty for the product. Hopefully, we will get a better quality replacement for this one.

Great Product--Great Customer Service
This HDMI switch worked like a charm but more impressive was the customer service response I got from Grace and her team @ Skycrop. The switching functionality stopped working after a few months for some unknown reason---what can you say other than these things sometimes happen. I reached out to Skycrop through Amazon to explain what had happened and was instantly contacted by Grace to remedy the situation. She had a replacement sent to me immediately (within 1 business day); no hassles or push-back at all. WOW--there are so many daily examples where good customer service is lacking I wanted to share this to emphasize that Skycrop stands behind its products should there be any issues with them. 5 star customer service.

This works great with Chromecast, Firestick, & Switch.
I mounted this behind my TV with my Chromecast, Firestick, and Switch. SteamLink too. It automatically switches and turns my TV on still just like extra TV HDMI slots would do. It also doesn't seem to have any issues with HDCP like my last switch did. The remote is lack luster and some buttons are the same frequency as my TV, so it really doesn't work for me at all. That being said, still five stars because you don't need the remote if you have HDMI-CEC devices hooked up!

This HDMI switch disables the ARC/CEC on my tv due to HDCP and I can no longer use my soundbar
Finally a product that allows 1 hdmi port on my tv to become 5 hdmi ports and add 5 more devices to the same tv. This is simply a device every main tv in every home needs with the growing list of connected devices. I had a lot of problems with my soundbar ARC not working after I connected this product, some device or cable of mine was causing HDCP issues. I switched out all my hdmi cables for ultra high speed 8k HDMI cables and it didn't initially fix the problem. I had to power on all connected devices and connect each one to this HDMI switch one at a time. Since then everything works awesome. Proโs - Very solid well build metal encased product - automatically figures out whichever device is on out of the 5 connected and displays it immediately on the tv. There is almost never a need to manually chose which device to display. - if more then one device is powered concurrently like a Nintendo switch and Xbox Series X, you can manually use the remote to switch between the devices being displayed on your tv - Dolby Vision, HDR, Dolby audio, DTS all work great through the switch, just make sure you have the latest gen 4k/8k HDMI cables or one HDCP issue and the whole thing collapses. Conโs - Thereโs about 35 different vendors selling boxes that look almost 100% like this box, with maybe simple differences like a different color of text. This box however is an updated box and it gives me absolutely no problems with Dolby vision and HDR. Be careful which one of these boxes you buy online, not all of them are the same.

Switches inputs instantly
Does what an HDMI switch do. I hooked up my Switch dock, PS4 and Wii U to it and turning on consoles makes the switch output the correct signal to my TV. It all works flawlessly. Can't comment on the 4k as none of my consoles can output in this resolution. The picture and sound qualities are still flawless in 1080p, though. I wish it was all gold and roses but, sadly, the remote controller is kind of garbage. Every time I press any of the 5 buttons to switch inputs, it raises or lowers the volume on my TV or opens up the settings menu on my Roku TV. It's extremely annoying to the point where I put the remote away and just let the HDMI switch do its thing. I realize this is just an issue of my TV picking up on the remote's IR signal but I've never seen any other remote interfere with my TV so I would rather blame that. It's still a solid purchase and I'm extremely satisfied not to have to unplug and replug HDMI cables every time I want to play on a different system.

Excellent video quality with no lag
I have it connected to my Samsung soundbar, with my UHD player, ps4 and chromecast connected to it, and no loss of signal or video lag so far. It does take about 10 or 20 seconds on initial start-up to detect your devices, but once it detects, there havent been any issues. Switching to each device is easy. I labelled my control so I don't have to guess which device I'm switching to. It also passes through the correct audio signal to the soundbar. I've tested movies with Dolby, DTS, Atmos and DTS X, and the switcher didn't have any problems sending the signal. I will revise my review if anything pops up, but so far so good.

Works like a charm
I was looking for a HDMI Switch for almost 3 months. After tons of research, I went with this model. I have a 4K HDR10 VIZIO TV with Dolby Vision support and a sound bar with Dolby digital support. I tested it with the Dolby app on the Xbox one X and both vision Dolby Vision and a Dolby Digital worked flawlessly. I don't have a sound system that supports Dolby Atom so can't test that. Currently, I have a steamlink, Xbox One X, Chromecast Ultra for Stadia connected and everything worked out of the box. The auto switch CEC works great and I don't need to grab the remote every time. I am not sure about the issue with Nintendo switch mentioned in the reviews, but Nintendo switch HDMI has some handshaking issues with other HDMI devices no matter what. I have my Switch and PS5 connected directly to the TV. Overall, pretty happy with the device and might order a second one for the other TV.

Best Buy ever
This came in so great to use , as we have an older tv with only 2 HMDI outlets and we have more plug ins needed HDMI connections. In minutes we had it hooked up and running. Pretty well I think for 2 non savvy techies. May not need it when we get a new tv, but right now the best thing we did.
