Works in most cases but not for my

I bought this hoping to hook up a keyboard, mouse and number pad. All 3 have fairly bright LEDs but 2 of them are USB 2.0 and one is USB 3.0 so I bought the 3.0 version thinking it might support power consumption. Unfortunately, my keyboard didn't fully light up with the recommended 5V power supply. When I gave it a higher power supply, it supported all my peripherals, but it made a very high-pitched tone that was painful unless I lowered the brightness up Values that he maintained with a…

  • Nice to use

Works almost perfect for my needs

I installed my work laptop dock on my home desktop which is also where I use my PC. I quickly realized that replacing USB mouse and keyboard adapters every time I wanted to switch between work and personal computers was a hassle and unnecessary port wear. Also, realizing that the built-in DAC in my work laptop was junk when trying to listen to music on Pandora at work, I decided to look for a USB switch and came across this one. I'm happy to report that the UGREEN USB 3.0 switch works almost…

Input 1 turns off/on every 5 seconds

***Update***If despite the reviews you still want to buy this product, here is some information UGREEN is too lazy to give you to give because you don't care about your customers. Power Supply: The manual, box, device, or Revain page does NOT state what the power supply should be rated for. I found on their website that you can use a 5V/2A MAX power supply. So check the information on your adapter and make sure the output shows 5V/2A or less Amps (A). Do you need a power adapter? It depends on…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Something is wrong

Without a doubt the best KVM I have ever used!

I already have three of these devices. I love her that much. They really work great. They can be powered via a microUSB cable connected to a separate charging port, or they can be charged via the USB bus of whatever computer they are connected to. All three of mine are not connected to power via the microUSB connector and all work. perfect. Here's how I use all three in case anyone is interested. I have 4 computers. Two Windows 10 PCs and two Macbook Pros. Well, one of the MBPs is a company…

Not enough USB controller resources

I got this to easily switch my webcam (Logitech Brio) and headset (Steelseries Artic Pro) between two Windows based computers. One computer is a Dell for work that I usually use for video conferencing. The other computer is a Velocity Micro gaming machine that I usually use to record/stream games. I keep getting the "Insufficient USB controller resources" message on both computers, which is frustrating. When this message appears, I often lose. either a microphone, headset audio, or a webcam.

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Long delivery time

For the first few days I thought I was one of the lucky ones who didn't report any problems with the device and everything was fine Order . Unfortunately, I've encountered problems with the device that seem beyond repair. What I've tried: (1) Switching power lines: cable (Samsung/Anker), plug location (direct to wall/Furman PSU), and wall-to-side 5VDC 1A adapter (Apple/Texas Instruments) (2) Changing input connections: Using different input ports on a UGREEN USB 3.0 device(3) Disconnecting and…

Pros
  • Always happy
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Great USB 3.0 switch with a small performance hit

I use this USB 3.0 switch to share multiple devices between my Windows desktop and my Surface Book 2 laptop. This model powers devices with a micro USB power adapter (not included) that prevents temporary power loss for hard drives and other more sensitive electronics during a switchover. It works well with a 1TB Samsung T5 SSD, a Drobo C USB 3.1 external hard drive, a SanDisk USB drive, and a Logitech mouse and keyboard. I also easily access the Switch through the Microsoft Surface Dock. I…

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Almost never

Unusable for my Dell desktop and HP laptop

I bought this device to switch a keyboard and mouse between two computers (Dell desktop and HP laptop). It seems to work as long as both computers are "awake". But when a computer goes to sleep, even if I disconnect and reconnect all cables, USB, and power cords, that computer can no longer recognize the keyboard or mouse. This never happens when the keyboard and mouse are directly connected to the computer. The only solution I've found in this case is to connect another keyboard and mouse to…

Pros
  • Nice design
Cons
  • I won't say anything
