Delock HDMI Switch
The usb port dedicated for mouse (with emulated rather than pass-through device) detects mouse cursor going over a display edge to switch between sources, this cannot be disabled and is broken if using non-switched displays alongside the switched one, similar with some keyboard keypressed captured when using back ports, so need to use the two frontal usb ports instead for input devices

Picture quality good to very good - but it probably also depends on the combination of TFT / computer / cable whether the display is good or bad
Which is a no go for this price:
The rubberised mini ON / OFF button sometimes gets stuck and you have to open the device to get it free again.
More annoying, however, is that depending on what you connect to the front USB port, the other port suddenly fails - e.g. Logitech Unify for mouse keyboard on one port, then connect a USB stick to the other port - USB stick is no longer recognised after a few seconds and mouse keyboard is blocked because the Unify also fails - USB stick gone and everything works again

The switch between computer/notebook basically works.
However, the keyboard/mouse connection does not work correctly for me. If I connect both to the designated USB slots (at the back), the unit loses the keyboard and mouse when I switch. It works for me if I connect the keyboard at the back and the mouse at the front to the USB. But what doesn't work at all: as soon as I plug in a USB stick, for example, it loses the keyboard and mouse immediately, always. This means that a useful function of the switch does not work at all, making it unusable for me. I will return the device ...

I would buy again
