Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

If you're looking for a switcher, this works fine. You can use a switcher to change between feeds, e.g. if your TV has only one HDMI port but you regularly connect two devices via HDMI, you can switch between them at the press of a button. If you're looking for a *splitter*, however, you need a different device. A splitter will simultaneously show your video feed on two devices; it's like a power strip but for HDMI, where multiple devices can be charged at the same time even though there's only one outlet in the wall. Make sure you know which device you're looking for. Docking a star for somewhat misleading advertising: while the description does say "only one monitor will display at a time", the use of the term "splitter" makes this less than obvious.
