Update a week later: I finally got my hands on a composite-to-HDMI converter for my original XBOX. I connected that to the Xbox and then the mClassic to the output and tried it on a 4K-capable 22-inch HP monitor and also a cheap Emerson TV that supports up to 1080p. My impression: WOW!!! Its a keeper. It solves two things: The aspect-ratio that can be a nightmare and make everything squashed, and the horrible Jaggies. The Jaggies are gone! Games look the way I REMEMBER them. When I first hooked up my old Xbox I couldn't believe how ugly the graphics were but my memory of them was a lot bettter. What is going on is clearly that the TV/Monitor technology keeps changing and without an adapter like the mClassic it looks terrible. Take a look at the two Fable screenshot collages. The top pictures are with the mClassic in bypass mode, the middle ones with the mClassic set to "green" which basically fixes jaggies but leaves aspect ratio untouched, and then "blue" which is retro which fixes both. There is a bit of a difference in how the TV vs the monitor adjusted the aspect ratio on the bypassed signal, but it doesn't matter for the final result, which is that in Retro mode, the games look PERFECT again. No jaggies and no squishing. My conclusion is if you're using an emulator on a modern system like a Raspberry Pi or a PC, this will not help but it will improve classic consoles DRASTICALLY. Definitely a keeper! Thank youOriginal review: I'll test it on an actual retro console soon but initial test using a RaspBerry Pi 4 show no improvement - not a whole lot different really. Top image is the "Retro" mode, middle image is the "Scaling" mode and bottom is off. There is SOME difference but I had to take pictures to see any difference at all. My main beef here is that the Raspberry Pi 4 will NOT boot with the adapter plugged into HDMI regardless of the mode setting. I will update the review and see what to do with this once I get a component to HDMI cable for my original Xbox and see if it makes a difference there. So far it doesn't actually improve anything.

I've had a few of these docks over time (and given a few away when someone desperately needed them). This one's larger than the one I replaced it with - but with 2 HDMI ports instead of one, and a SD + MicroSD card reader built right in. It works, and it's fast.It also does not have the really annoying problem my previous reader had: left connected to wired Ethernet (RJ-45), but disconnected from my computer, that adapter would jam my entire home network with the equivalent of Ethernet feedback. So that's the first test for this one. Ethernet works great, and fast, and there's even activity and connection/speed LEDs on that connector like real Ethernet hardware has, and I can undock the computer without wiping out all the internet connectivity in the house.Card reader is nice and fast, too. There's a tiny power light near the USB-C PD power input port, and the thing sits nicely next to my laptop - a nice arrangement of port locations. So far, so good!

I was using an older computer for live streaming with OBS and the audio had a huge amount of noise at the bottom end. I could not figure out what the problem was so I thought I would by pass the internal sound card after trying a boat load of other things first. This unit was cheap enough that I didn't mind using it to test this theory. It worked, the sound is much cleaner now!

Love it, for the price works great! Currently at college and my kids are playing in the living room... I can hear them from far.. and i can hear my professor great!

This adapter saved my old drive. I had an old 3.5 inch IDE external drive (enclosed in an external USB/Firewire case), I was using for back ups, wouldn't even power on. Not sure if it was the drive, external case, or both, that had failed, so I got the BELCHERI External Hard Drive Adapter to test it out. I removed the drive from its external case and attached it to the BELCHERI adapter. The drive powered on and showed up on my desktop. Excellent! I also tried it on an internal SATA DVD reader/writer and that worked great as well. Very happy that this has extended the life of my drive and I like that I don't need a bulky external case for the drive. Nice!

My grandma wanted me to clear out my late grandpa's hifi setup and I happened to notice an old Hitachi Amp from the 80s.I had been considering getting a headphone amp at some point in the near future so I could buy some more high impedence headphones, and noticed the big boy headphone jack on this thing. One issue though. No rca ports on my PC.Suffice to say I jumped at the opportunity to get this cable so I could test out the amp. I hooked it all up, plugged my current headphones in, turned the volume to like 5, and nearly blew my head off. Yeah, this will drive powerful headphones. My current ones are sitting at 2 out of 10 volume.The cable does exactly what you think it does. It allows old RCA audio devices to interface with anything that has a headphone jack. The cable seems to be of a good quality, and I am now considering getting a few more of them so I can have multiple devices hooked up to this beast of an amp. An £8 investment has saved me £100-£200 I might have spent for a more modern (and less cool looking) solution.

I could not believe this flash was $40. I just got this flash, so this is a first impression.Solid build. Simple interface. This is NOT a TTL flash. It's fully manual. I bought this to compare to my old Vivitar 285HVs and to have a flash that could go on camera for run-and-gun situations.I just tested the slave feature. It is a true optical slave that is triggered by ANY flash. My Vivitar 285 triggered it, as well as the Canon 50D's popup flash. WOW! Great in a darker room. Only experience will show what the range is.Love how the head spins 180 degrees.After some research, I found the electrical port matches the Canon battery pack plug. I will update after I acquire one of those cords and test with my battery packs.

Product does really good at capturing your voice at this price. Did a video while driving to test it out and the noise cancellation did it’s job. Barely heard the drive and the radio was faint in the background. Good pick up for media creators on a budget.
