The OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter has been a mixed bag for me. On the plus side, it splits my 4K signals as promised, but auto-detection of HDMI ports is unreliable. When I switched from AppleTV to a 4K UHD Blu-Ray Player, the signal failed, forcing me to manually swap HDMI cables multiple times.
Better to have this plugged into an external power source for consistent performance. The plastic build feels cheap and struggles with heat. I’m returning this product and trying a different brand.
Disappointed.

I needed an HDMI splitter for my DirecTV to share the signal between two televisions using a long 100' HDMI cable. This OREI splitter worked flawlessly for that purpose. One thing I appreciate is its compact size; it's about a third the size of my previous splitter, which makes it easier to hide behind my entertainment unit.
Overall, for $399, it’s a decent purchase for this specific application.

For the price point of $399, the OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter performs well, but there's room for improvement. As a manual HDMI switch, it works without any issues. However, the auto-switching function is subpar. It only automatically switches inputs if the original source is powered off, not when a new source is detected.
This limits its convenience, especially if you use multiple devices frequently. This limitation means I’ll likely seek out another splitter with better auto-switching capability.

I use the OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter to duplicate my Apple TV signal to multiple rooms and it does the job quite well. The 4K 60Hz video quality remains intact across all screens. However, manual switching between sources can be cumbersome, and the device seems to need an external power source for better stability, contrary to the manual's claims.
The build quality could also be improved – it feels cheap and flimsy.

The OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter is decent but has shortcomings. I used it to split my gaming console and Blu-ray player signals. While it maintained 4K 60Hz quality, manual switching is necessary as it fails to auto-detect active sources. I would recommend adding an external power source despite the claims in the booklet.
The plastic build is disappointing for the price. I'll keep looking for a more reliable auto-switching splitter.

I bought the OREI HDMI Splitter to manage multiple inputs to my 4K TV. The performance is solid; it delivers high-quality 4K 60Hz signals consistently. However, the automatic switching feature is hit or miss, often requiring manual intervention. The packaging was minimal but adequate.
Given its price, it's a fair deal, but it could use some upgrades for better user-friendliness and durability.

I tried using this OREI HDMI Splitter with my Sony Blu-ray player and Apple TV. The Apple TV worked fine, but the Blu-ray signal often disappeared, requiring me to unplug everything and start over. It seems the splitter struggles without an external power source. The manual doesn’t mention this clearly.
It’s made of flimsy plastic and doesn’t handle heat well. For now, I’m switching brands.

Bought the OREI HDMI Splitter to extend my Samsung TV signal to another room. The device works well and transfers clear 4K 60Hz video. However, it doesn’t auto-detect inputs, requiring manual changes. The lack of an external power source can mess with its performance.
It’s compact but feels cheaply made, especially given it’s $399. I’m satisfied but not overly impressed.

Needed an HDMI splitter for my home office setup. The OREI HDMI Splitter was easy to install and works fine for my 4K monitor and projector. It maintains video quality at 60Hz, but the auto-switching function is inconsistent. The manual says no extra power is needed, but I found it works better when plugged in.
For the price, it’s okay but could be improved.

I purchased the OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter to use with my gaming console and Roku. It works as described with excellent picture quality, but it requires manual intervention to switch between devices. Auto-detecting new HDMI inputs doesn’t work well. Build quality leaves much to be desired, the plastic feels cheap and doesn’t dissipate heat effectively.
Not bad for $399, but there are better options.

The OREI HDMI Splitter allows me to project my 4K laptop screen onto multiple monitors. It does a good job maintaining 4K 60Hz quality. However, there’s an issue with auto-switching; it often doesn't switch to the right input automatically, which is a hassle. Manual changes work but defeat the purpose of “auto-switching.” For the price, it’s decent but not without flaws.

Using the OREI HDMI Splitter in my home theater setup for splitting signals from my receiver. Although it keeps the 4K 60Hz resolution, the auto-detect feature is unreliable and often requires manual switching. The device needs an external power source for stable performance, contrary to claims.
The cheap plastic build isn’t reassuring. I’m looking for a more reliable option.

I bought this splitter to use with my 4K AppleTV and Xbox. It does maintain high-quality 4K 60Hz visuals, but it's inconsistent with auto-switching sources. You'll often need to manually change inputs. While compact, the build quality feels substandard, and it doesn’t handle heat well.
Minimal packaging, but well-protected. I can’t fully recommend it given its flaws.

I needed an HDMI splitter to share my laptop’s display with multiple monitors in my office. The OREI HDMI Splitter works okay for this purpose. It maintains video quality but falls short on auto-switching, requiring manual changes most times. Installation was straightforward, but the device itself heats up quickly and is made of thin plastic.
Not a top-tier product but acceptable for $

Was looking for a reliable HDMI splitter for my DirecTV setup to run two TVs. The OREI UltraHD HDMI Splitter does its job and maintains good 4K quality. However, auto-detecting the active HDMI input is quite poor and often needs manual intervention. It’s small and lightweight but feels cheaply made. It’s not perfect, but does what I need it to do with some extra effort.
