Review on πŸ–₯️ Monoprice Blackbird 4K Displayport 1.4 USB 3.0 2x1 KVM Switch - Black, 4K@60Hz, HDR, YCbCr 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2, Share 2 Computers with 1 Keyboard Mouse Monitor Printer by Bart Elbrink

Revainrating 4 out of 5

No HDR or 140Hz at 1440p. 1440p at 120Hz works great; some USB issues

This device works well enough, I would have preferred to use USB-C and DisplayPort 1.4 - although for the money it's nice not to have to switch cables between my Mac and PC. The shortcuts are a little fiddly and annoying, but at least the mono price gives you the ability to use physical face buttons, mouse shortcuts, keyboard shortcuts, and an IR remote.

Pros
  • Supports HDR and Deep Color at 16 bits per channel (48 bits total) for DisplayPort and 12 bits per channel (36 bits total) for HDMI. Compatible with Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8/10, Mac OS X and Linux operating systems.
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
