UGREEN USB 3.0 Switch 4 Port USB Switch Selector 5Gbps High-Speed Peripheral Sharing Switcher for 2 Computer Share Mouse Keyboard Compatible with Laptop Scanner Printer 2 Pack 4.92ft Cable

Great quality. Really great for swapping between and office setup and gaming setup. I have connected on side to the laptop and the other to my gaming pc. I swap between the two at the touch of a button and its instant. Doesn't seem to create any noticeable lag. Cable length is great and a decent tool for the money

This device allowed me to connect a keyboard, mouse, USB webcam and a wireless receiver for a headset to 2 computers at the same time. I mounted it behind one of my screens with double sided tape to keep the massive amounts of wires out of sight. With 1 button, I can switch between the machines easily. I still need to switch my monitors to the other inputs manually if both machines are running simultaneously, but most modern monitors will just switch to the correct input automatically when one or the other machine are first powered on. Unfortunately this UGreen switch doesn't have an autoswitch feature, but that suits me and its literally one button press to switch.I've previously bought usb extension cables form UGreen and the quality is always top notch. Even the USB cables provided with this switcher are thick, sturdy cables that should last and work for a long time to come once treated properly.For those using this for working at home, one small bonus for me was that this passes through keyboard input to the laptop even before Windows has booted, so I can use my external keyboard to enter a Bitlocker pin and not have to pull out the laptop to use the built in keyboard. There's a lot of variables with this setup and it won't work for everyone, I'm just noting it here that the UGreen switcher did NOT cause any issues for me. If entering bitlocker pin with an external keyboard works for you now, including this switcher into the mix shouldn't change that.

Hybrid working means I have a laptop for in office days and a PC for working from home days when I need the extra graphics power. Some days I need to use both. This little box has made that so much easier.No more having to unplug a keyboard or mouse dongle from the laptop and crawl around on the floor to put it in the back of the PC and vice versa. They're all pluged into this little box, and with the press of a button it swaps between the 2 devices.For me, this is the height of convenience. I even have a little fan plugged in, so even if you're just using the one machine, you can still use it as a hub.You can power this externally, but it doesn't come supplied with a cable or plug. But it's there as an option if the devices you're wanting to power are needing too much energy. It works fine for most uses without.The one thing I'd change and the reason for dropping a star, is the cable ports. You have the ports to connect to the 2 devices on the back, and the other ports on the front. This means it doesn't look the tidiest as you'll have cables poking out of both sides. With my set up, it means it doesn't sit flush on the desk because of this, but it's a small price to pay for the convenience of it.

There's nothing fancy, it's good value for money. It works as expected.

I've had one of these for well over 2 years now, bought a spare in case it went wrong. Does the job perfectly.

I use this to switch my peripherals between my personal desktop and work laptop.Works as expected with no performance degradation, the button to switch between the two is responsive and the light makes it clear which is seleted.The two cables that are provided with the product are of a good quality and a reasonable length.

Works with my multi button mouse for proper support unlike a previous device I had.

The Bad: Ports started dying pretty quickly, a couple of years later I'm now down to 2 working ports and getting intermittent disconnects.The Good: Simple to use, reliable when it comes to switching and day-to-day use, layout is good and fits nicely on the back of a monitor.Good value if you get a working one, but don't expect it to last very long.
