"Good but has hidden limitations"
4 stars"

Captures PS4pro and Xbox1X footage and sound that looks great with a few tweaks (e.g. Extra cable for chat with PS4). However for a two PC streaming setup it is unable to send audio from the gaming PC to streaming PC without losing local sound output on gaming PC (you have to set sound output as HDMI/HD60S+). It is possible to get around this via connecting to an external Mixer device or setting up some complicated sound/voice rerouting software like Voicemeter banana. Given that the earlier versions of the elgato cards could do this just by using the elgato video capture app I have to dock a point from the HD60 S+ review rating.

"Excellent all-round HD streaming tool"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

While a little on the pricy side, it works very well with almost any device that utilises HDMI output. I have tested it with PS4, XBox 360, Nintendo Switch, NES Classic Mini and Raspberry pi, all of them have worked with no major issues. The only caveat is that you can not utilise the controller audio out on PS4/XBox or the Headphone jack on the Switch – if you attempt to do this, it will mute the audio output on the stream/recording, however this can be circumvented by plugging your headphones into your streaming PC (the latency is negligible).

High quality unit, works as specified. Shipping from mighty ape is very inconsistent, this took over a month to arrive.

"Might be the worst product I have bought in terms of tech"
1 stars"

Ever since I have owned this I have had nothing but problems with it. Every single time I use it without fail there is a problem with the audio, whether it be the pitch changing up or down, the sound lagging full seconds behind, or the sound simply just not working at all. I have had other problems along side it like the video not connecting to the software or the colours being a different shade. I would never reccomend this product or brand to anyone ever.

"Absolute waste of time"
1 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Seller accidentally pressed the sent button so said they could not go through with the sale. I had told seller that it was fine as long they told me when they did send it and popped tracking with it. After ignoring me for a days they messaged again asking if I had gotten a refund from mightyape. I had not due to mightyape saying he still needed to go through with sale. He still point blank refused and had even relisted the item at an even higher price and refused to resell to me at the price I had purchased for. This person is not very nice and untrustworthy. Would not buy from at all.
