Review: HDMI switch that is working fine for my computer needs - When purchasing this switch I was looking for a cheaper alternative for my workplace to an IOGear KVM HDMI switch, which is good and reliable, but costs around $200. I figured that I could do very well with two cheaper devices: one switching USB ports between my two computers (at least 3 ports to accommodate the keyboard, the mouse, and the webcam), and the other one switching the Hi-Def monitor. BOTH devices together cost less than $80 and provide more flexibility, even though one has to press two buttons, not one. Regular, affordable KVM switches are still using the traditional, analog Video output that simply can't support high resolutions reliably. As far as most laptop and desktops currently on the market do support both high resolutions and a certain format of digital video output (DVI, HDMI or DisplayPort), I am really wondering whether all these KVM manufacturers are still stuck in the 20th century... I have been using HDMI switches for quite some time, and I must admit that either the standard itself is not 100% solid, or all these devices are too different. Some of them take an incredible amount of time to switch between sources, which is accompanied by multiple screen blackouts etc. Some either do not support or are incompatible with certain cables or adapters. In my case a cheaper, autonomous (no separate AC power) HDMI switch didn't do the job. For some reason it did have a problem with multiple adapters on both ends of the HDMI cable. My monitor only supports DVI, and one of my laptops has a DisplayPort output. So the whole configuration is relatively sophisticated: One cable has a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter attached to it, and the cable going to the monitor is terminated with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter. I must emphasize that all 3 standards are completely compatible in terms of the digital video signal (no audio with DVI), and do not require AC-powered adapters or signal conversion; They only need passive adapters that simply connect the pins properly, nothing more, so they should not affect the result by any means. This particular switch is affordable, works well, and does support all my cabling/adapter combos. Auto-sensing feature also helps, because when I am bringing a laptop and connecting it, the switch automatically chooses the new device. This saves you a button-press. Also, given the available infrared remote, one can use it in an A/V rack and control it remotely using any good, programmable universal remote, like the one from Logitech. I haven't noticed any blinking, blackouts or signal deterioration with either my Hi-Def monitor (DVI) or with a TV (HDMI), using digital outputs from either computers (HDMI/DisplayPort) or a Bluray player. Switching time is also reasonable in all cases. The device is compact (important for desktop configurations when you are switching a monitor between computers) and easy to use. I have also got the impression that as far as the switch is using independent AC power, it gets less sensitive to cable length/type or additional passive adapters connected to these cables. Looks like the signal is simply getting too weak when one is using a passive switch and additional adapters are connected, so I would generally recommend powered switches. I can't provide any comments related to the switch's reliability or longevity so far... P.S. Some people have mentioned that the switch doesn't work well with all cables. In my experience (3 HDMI switches used for 3+ years, multiple input devices, mostly computers, plus various adapters) any HDMI cable of decent quality works as far as it complies with the 1.3 or later HDMI specification and is solid enough. Extra dollars paid for a "high-end" HDMI cable is money wasted, and I can double this as a physicist and engineer with 25+ years of experience with digital signals and devices. BUT one shouldn't purchase obscure, super-cheap Chinese cables. YES, the signal is digital, BUT it still needs to be strong and clear: In many cases there are too many distortions/too much signal weakening/reflections caused by poor-quality contact pins, poor conductor (wire) quality or substandard, "hand-made" soldering. As far as one stays with brand names (from desertcart to Monoprice) costing not more than $15 for a 4-6 feet HDMI cable compliant with HDMI 1.3 or higher, one should do fine.
Review: Auto-switch can be an unnecessary feature sometimes; Great product otherwise - NOTE: This product is currently unavailable as of the time I'm writing this review. This is odd because I literally just bought and received this on Friday 8/21/2015 and it showed no signs of running out of stock anytime soon. Now, I'm writing this review the very next day (8/22/2015) and it is currently unavailable. Weird...anyways onto the review. ~Added two pictures: One of the device itself, another of the device next to my gamecube controller so you can see how small the Kinivo actually is~ This product does exactly what I wanted to do, and at a great $39.99 price as of the time I paid for it. There are a total of 5 HDMI input ports that you can hook into it, + one HDMI output port that you would most likely be connecting to your HDTV. Personally, I'm only using 4 of the 5 as of now because I only have 4 devices that need HDMI: my Wii U, PS3, PS4, and AT&T U-Verse TV box. All of them work great with no glitches, quirkiness, reduced quality, or any of that. Each of the 5 inputs are labeled 'Input 1', 'Input 2', 'Input 3', and so on up to 5. There's a button on the device itself called "Switch" that you can press to sequentially switch through all of your available connected devices. However, this product also comes with a very cool and small remote that lets you control the switches from it via Infrared signals. The remote has up/down arrow buttons that respectively increment and decrement the current HDMI input device you're on. However, it gets a little bit better as there are also 5 other buttons on the remote (numbered 1-5) which map to your 5 HDMI input devices. This lets you freely control which HDMI device you want to display without having to use the linear up/down arrows or the 'Switch' button itself on the device. There's also 1 more button on the remote called "Memory". When you press the Memory button, Kinivo remembers the current HDMI device that is being displayed, such that whenever you turn your HDTV on, Kinivo will automatically switch to the remembered HDMI device. I haven't tried this feature yet so I can't comment on how good it works but it sounds promising. Last thing I want to touch on is what I mentioned in my review title. This device has two interesting auto-switch features that can be either handy or annoying depending on the context of your usage. Firstly, when you turn on a device that is connected to your Kinivo, Kinivo will recognize this and automatically switch the currently displayed HDMI device to the new one that was just turned on. i.e. You're currently watching TV, and you turn on your game system that's connected to your Kinivo. Kinivo will automatically switch to displaying the game system. As I said above, depending on the context of your usage, this feature can either be very useful or very annoying because maybe you didn't want to play your game system at that point in time. Maybe you were just turning it on now in order to play it later. Secondly, if you turn off the device that is currently being displayed on your HDTV, Kinivo will recognize this and automatically switch to the next available sequential HDMI input. Using the above example, let's say your TV box was Input 2, and your game system was Input 3. If you're currently watching TV, and you decide to turn your TV box off, Kinivo will automatically switch to the next available sequential HDMI input, which in this case would be Input 3, the game system. Again, it largely depends on the context of your usage, but this can also be either very useful or annoying. All in all, I'm still giving this 5 stars because the auto-switch features aren't that big of a deal. Even if Kinivo auto switches to an HDMI device that you do not want displayed, you can always just whip out your remote and change it back. All of which takes a few seconds.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable HDMI Switcher for Multiple Devices
*by E***S on August 29, 2025*

Reliable HDMI Switcher for Multiple Devices I’ve been using the Kinivo 301BN HDMI switch with my TV setup, and it has made life easier when juggling multiple devices. Between a Roku, Xbox, and cable box, I used to constantly swap cables. This switch eliminates that hassle—just plug in up to three HDMI sources, and it outputs cleanly to the TV. Setup was straightforward: HDMI in from each device, one HDMI out to the TV, and it worked instantly. The picture quality holds up well at 4K resolution, and I haven’t noticed any signal drop or lag. The included remote is handy for switching inputs from the couch, though there’s also an auto-switching feature that detects when a device powers on. That worked most of the time, but occasionally it would stay on the last input until I manually changed it. One thing to keep in mind is that while it supports 4K, it’s limited to 30Hz. If you’re gaming on a PS5 or Xbox and expect 4K at 60Hz, this isn’t the right fit. For streaming and casual viewing though, it performs well. The compact size also means it tucks neatly behind the TV without adding clutter. Bottom line: A reliable, easy-to-use HDMI switch for everyday setups with multiple devices, as long as you don’t need 4K at 60Hz.
