Kinivo 8K HDMI Switch (8K 60Hz, 4 in 1 Out, 48Gbps HDMI 2.1 Hub, Ultra HD Switcher, HDR10+, Dolby Atmos) - Compatible with HDTV, Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox, Apple TV

After trying a few HDMI switchers, this is the only one that has been working for me. I waited for a bit before writing this review because I wanted to make sure it was not going to crap on me. So far so good. I wanted a switcher that would work for my ELGATO 4K PRO, with A PS5 pro, XBOX series x, and PC, and this one did the trick. It allows me to switch between my Xbox, ps5, and pc for recording at 4k 120hz and also sometimes use my handheld lenovo go 2 for recording video with OBS. The main thing is that it allows 4k 120 hz to passthrough my pc making it easier for PS5 pro and xbox series x to be set at 4k 120hz to match my C5 tv. ALL and all, if your set up situation is similar to mine, I recommend you give this a try. It works for me so far, and hopefully it will work for you as well

It’s working as expected but the auto switch is not working as smart.. Changing it thru the remote is good…

First and maybe only HDMI switch I'll need. Product is fast and responsive to switching inputs. Only issue I have encountered is the switch will not project an image onto the screen if the device turns on and you immediately switch to it. It has been a one off thing that has happened but not sure if it may happen again. Other than that this is a solid device.

Purchased it to connect my fire stick, apple tv, and xbox one to my tv, which also has an eARC sound bar connected into it. All items above worked without any issue since I plugged them in. Apple tv retained all its functions (volume, turn on tv, turn off tv), Firestick also retained all it’s functions and the HDMI splitter remote makes things so much faster by just switching between your devices from far. Good product overall, five stars.

I bought this product because I have a lonely 4k HDR capable Samsung TV with 3 HDMI ports and 6 HDMI's to connect to it. These include: PS5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PC, Retrotink 4k, and Google Chromecast Ultra. I set everything up, have power plugged in, followed directions and everything was ok for awhile but I noticed something. Occasionally, the picture would cut to black for a few seconds. Ok, maybe this is just a HDCP thing. Try it without HDCP - Still cuts to black. Maybe its 4k HDR.... Nope, Nintendo Switch at 1080p cuts out. This is apparently an issue with a lot of switchers. Unfortunately, this device suffers from it. Maybe its the compatibility with my equipment, maybe I have voltage issues within the wall... Who knows. Until I can rule out everything, I can't blame it fully on the product. However, everything works normally through the HDMI on the tv. Let me tell you, if you get interested in a show you are not going to want it to cut out for a couple seconds. So be warned. It seems to be ok for the most part, but my device definitely cuts out. Update: I've used this adapter for a few months now. Save yourself some hassle and BUY SOMETHING ELSE. Everything I plug into it cuts out eventually. It doesn't matter how long I've had it plugged in, how often I reset the adapter, the quality or length of the cable, the system that I use... Nothing is stable. I am changing this device from a 3 star to a 1 star because I can't play PS5 games, I can't watch movies on Google Chromecast Ultra, I can't use my computer on it, everything cuts out to the point that you can't watch anything.

I have an LG UltraGear 48 inch gaming monitor that can handle PS5’s top graphic settings when plugged directly into the HDMI input. However, I also have a Macbook Pro, Apple TV and Ipad Pro 12.9 that I also want connected to this monitor. Now the obvious and most simply solution would be to just plug each device into its own input and move on with my day. Endlessly going into input settings and switching the HDMI input manually and the quick input switch selection on most monitors usually forces you to cycle through all the inputs! NOW it is 2024 and who has time for that?! It is very clear there is a need for a simple desktop device that can easily switch the input direcltly using a button or a small remote WITHOUT loosing any the amazing sound and video quality of these next gen A/V devices. I tried every option i could find on Amazon, at Best Buy, on Reddit and NONE would push the full 120hz 4k/60hz 8k signal they boated to retain. I promise even the most respectable brands like ANKER, UGREEN or INSIGNIA had options that simply would not push the signal 100% correctly. I also tried the off-brand switches that look just like this one which promise the same specs and they still did not work. The closest i got was the UGREEN 8k 3 port HDMI Switch but it could not push the full 120hz framerate at 4k only 60hz at 8k. At the end of the day a jump from 60hz to 120hz is MUCH more notable than a jump from 4k to 8k which is barley noticeable in screens smaller than a movie theater. FINALLY i decided to just buy every option and return the ones that did not work. THANK YOU AMAZON because i finally found it. This is the switch of switches, it works like a tank and i have verified 100% full lossless audio and video using several methods I learned while testing the other switches. i even am able to route the audio out of the headphone jack of the monitor into my KRK Subwoofer, which acts as a Audio hub for 4 krk rockit studio monitors. THE SOUND IS PERFECT even with super sensitive studio monitors that are built to notice even the slightest imperfections. BEST BEST BEST. dont waste your time with anything else or let anyone convince you the only way is to directly connect to the tv. THIS SWITCH WORKS AND I AM SO HAPPY!

Very easy to install and use.

Update: After several months of working well, the HDMI switch now cuts out constantly while playing video games, particularly on the PS5. Perhaps mine is defective, or the PS5 just thruputs too much data, I don't know. Either way, this is likely a good HDMI switch for items that don't require a lot of data but it's simply not working for next gen video games or my PC. I really wanted to like this HDMI switch (as you can see from my original review). But it just didn't hold up. Original Review: Bought this switch to replace a mid-grade, two port HDMI switch. I have a PS5, Nintendo Switch, WiiU, and PS2 all connected to my living room TV. I also occasionally lug out my gaming PC and hook it up on the big screen as well. I needed am HDMI switch that would allow me to run all the cables to their various places without having to plug and unplug everything all the time. This one works great, unlike my other cheap switch, which had picture crackle and would occasionally cut out. I also added an HDMI signal booster on the output side of the HDMI switch since I'm pushing the signal over 15ft of 8k HDMI cable. It's more expensive than many other options, but worth it in my opinion. Plus, once you have an HDMI switch on your TV you'll almost certainly figure out other stuff you want to plug in. Two ports just wasn't enough.

EXCELENTE PRODUCTO

I was unable to figure out how to extend the number of ports on my TV and this device comes across as a boon. These days just 3 ports are rather insufficient as one of them will get locked up if you own a soundbar like I do. To work with just 2 ports and multiple devices like set top box, Apple TV, Roku, Firestick, Blueray player and PS5 was becoming such a pain … had to keep removing cables and putting them back based on what I wanted to use. It’s been a few hours since I hooked it up. First time I powered it on, it didn’t work at all and I was quite disappointed and thought of returning it, till I realised that perhaps the output HDMI cable that goes back to the TV is not working. I changed that cable and this thing immediately came to life. It works as advertised. It’s quite small and light … which creates slight problem of placing it… because of the weight of the cables going in … it wobbles and doesn’t sit flush on the cabinet. Need to figure that part out. Automatic switching doesn’t quite work … so you have to use the remote that’s been provided to switch between input sources. But switching between sources is quite fast, hardly 5 seconds … barely noticeable. The picture quality and sound quality doesn’t feel compromised. I would definitely recommend this device to anyone who is looking to expand the number of ports on their TV.

Works well

I recently purchased a synch lights for my TV and I wanted to use the same for both my PS5 & my fire TV. With this device my dream became possible! The switch is super easy with a click of a button and what’s amazing is that it supports 4 devices with a 8k 60hrtz and 4K 120hrs output! My picture quality for both the streaming device and my gaming console have been incredibly high and fluid! Worth the price tag! Love the product and highly recommended for Multi functionality!

If you ever need to buy a HDMI 2.1 Switcher coz your TV HDMI 2.1 ports are taken and want to add more devices that support HDMI 2.1 features. I recommend this little device, I have tried few, some work but not the best and some are advertised falsely. This is little pricy, but goes on special at times and is super fast, supports everything with beautiful picture with no slow down and also automatically switches to the right port once the device has been turned on, and also comes with a remote. I bought mine from Amazon.
