EDIT: Consider this review a 4.5 stars, rather than a 5. There's no doubt that this HDMI 2.0 Switch is at the top of the line when it comes to physical durability. It is an industrial unit - aesthetically unappealing, but sturdy and extremely responsive. HDMI cables snap into their slots with a very satisfying clunk - it is very easy to know when the cable is properly in. The only issue with the design itself is the LED backlight, which is absurdly bright and can't be turned off or dimmed. I've had to place a strip of black electric tape over the screen. There's no getting around, though, that this is an extremely expensive HDMI Switch. Even for the 16 slots it offers, it is multiples more expensive than its competitors, of which a 5x1 or 8x1 Switch can often be had for less than $50. And, to a certain extent, it does have a premium feel. The problem, of course, is whether this switch will last. My HDMI OUT port on my previous TESmart 16x1 Switch failed - it no longer displayed output to my OLED, and read out as an "inactive" input, despite the unit turning on and switching through inputs as normal. This happened a mere 17 months after purchase. I had to contact TESmart Support and then had to get my elbows out a little bit to get proper support, and eventually a replacement free of charge. This was not even what I requested - I merely was looking for repair service - so the support was very much appreciated. This leads to my strongest criticism of this unit - the Warranty. TESmart only offers a 1 Year Warranty for this 16x1 unit, which, considering the price, is absurdly low. When you look at other consumer electronics markets, as you go up the stack in price, so too does the warranty length. AVRs are a great example of this - the Denon S Series AVRs have 2 or 3 years of warranty (arguably still too low), while their more expensive X Series have a 5 year warranty minimum. This switch is at the absolute top of the stack - it is the most expensive switch that I can find pretty much anywhere. A mere 1 year warranty for a 250 dollar purchase is simply unacceptable. I will keep my review at 5 stars, as support has been very helpful in replacing my unit. And, again, despite the price, this is the absolute best HDMI Switch on the market, bar none. But I seriously hope they reconsider their warranty policy to 2 years at least, particularly when internal failures are clearly a possibility.

What a colossal waste of my time. I have twelve devices (game consoles, computers) that can output HDMI at various resolutions and this thing fails miserably. This is advertised to accept "up to 3840x2160". Notice how a list of exact resolutions are not supplied in the specs? Well, while I have devices that output 1080p over HDMI (and those work fine with the switch of course) I have others that output various resolutions over HDMI. For example, the RetroTink (original) outputs 480P over HDMI. But, the switch does not like it. No display. It works fine when connected directly into my TV and it works fine when connected to a five dollar non powered switcher. I have an HDMI card for my Apple IIe. It outputs at 720x480. It doesn't like it. No display. WOrks fine on my TV directly or into the same cheap $5 switch. I have a Sofia2 on the Atari 800. It works, then it does not. I changed the resolution from 1280x960 to 1024x1200, 1366x960 as well. All of these resolutions work direct to the TV and guess where...again the cheap HDMI box. I went out of my way to disconnect everything from the multiple cheap boxes I have in order to clean things up and connect it all to this HDMI matrix...which is a job and it is not cheap. I really expected it all to work. Why would cheap HDMI boxes work but not this expensive matrix? What a waste and what a joke. Everything is connected back to the five dollar boxes now and this trash is going back immediately. Thanks for nothing.

Very easy set up, plug and play. One thing to note is if you have an Apple TV you may have to adjust your audio settings. Mine had to be changed to Dolby 5.1 or there was only music but no actual verbal dialog. Simple and easy fix. It’s very large, but comes with brackets to mount if that’s a problem for you. Even the ps3/ps4/ps5 all function smoothly with this setup, as they do tend to be the problem children. I hear the power adapters die off sometimes, but I haven’t had it long enough to know if that’s true. So far so good 🤞

EDIT: I got a replacement from the manufacturer and auto-switch works correctly. Must have been a bad unit. Overaly very happy with this unit. Original review: This is one of the only 16-port HDMI switches on the market. Per the Amazon product page, it includes "Automatic input detection and switching." I take this to mean that when powering on a connected HDMI device, the switch will automatically change to that input. This does not work for me. It's also not clear whether the switch actually includes this feature or not. While the feature is listed on the Amazon page, the manufacturer's website only lists the time-based auto-scan feature. TESmart offers a download package that includes a PC Control app. This app has a button to turn this feature on an off. The included PDF describes this feature as: Auto input detect on: When plug new HDMI input source to the switch or power on the HDMI input source, the switch will automatically select the input port that is connected to this input source. When unplug or power off the HDMI input source, the switch will switch to the input port which is last plug in or last powered on HDMI input source. This is exactly what I want but it does not work even after using the app to enable it. I have the app set up correctly as I can change other settings such as the muting the input change beep. I can also use it to change inputs. I should note that these other settings do not appear to be retained through a power loss. Adding to the further confusion as to the existence of this feature, there is a second PDF included in the PC Control app download. It is just an API documentation on the RS232 and IP Control hex commands you can send to control the switch. This is a great thing to include but I couldn't help notice that the automatic input detection and switching is not listed in this document. I have emailed TESmart support and will update this review if they can help.
