The only one THAT WORKS!
I've tried all of them. I've tried component to HDMI adaptors, only to have them either not work or break after a week, and I've tried the PS2 to HDMI dongles, which ALWAYS have vertical lines. When seeing this product originally, I was very skeptical. The device had no reviews to go off of and also looks like it is newly listed (Because, I believe it is) However, I tried every other adaptor. Might as well give this one a go. I plugged it in, and was both thrown off and interested at the same time. I was getting teeny tiny vertical lines and a bit of signal distortion, which I hated, however, I looked closer. The more I looked, the more the problem disappeared! I believe this product has to warm up a bit before the signal becomes crystal clear. Within just a few minutes, the picture was perfect! I tried a GT4, which gave me 1080i with no issues, and I also tried Underworld: The Eternal War (A pal game). I expected the pal game to have issues, however, it worked with no issues at all! Absolutely perfect! All in all, I am superbly happy I purchased this product. This is the only solution that worked for me. As a final note, I wrote the company on their Facebook page asking for a bit of information on another product, and they responded within just a couple hours! Even on the weekend, when it says they are closed! The customer service is amazing for this company! Don't be scared off by the price or by the lack of reviews. This product is fantastic and well worth the money. I especially love the company and can not wait to see what other products they have in store. Hopefully a version of the Wii2HDMI that works? :D

Component quality made simple and works with progressive scan titles.
Setup was easy and having the RGB/Component switch makes it easy to get a signal even if your video settings are not initially correct. PS2 video and HDMI connectors were very firm but felt good quality. After setup was complete, the picture quality was equal to component quality and sound was fine and passed through ARC for me just fine. Previously, I used a component to HDMI convert box but it was a pain to connect all those cables and my new TV does not have component cables. So, this cable is much easier to deal with and works well. I really do not have any complaints and hope it continues to work as it does now. If it does, I feel it deserves a very high recommendation. Some reviews complain about PS1 use but the device only advertised PS2 so I don't see how that is fair. Also, some review seem to think the picture should look better but I am familiar with PS2 component output and this appears to be the same quality which is all you can expect from a cable. This will not make the PS2 look hi-res and it will depend on the quality or your TVs scaler. But if you have a TV with a good scaler, your results should be good.

Easy install, crisp graphics!
I wanted this because some PS2 games don’t scale well on newer televisions. This was easy to install, less than 5 minutes. I’ll be using Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas as my example. On the title screen before all the loading images is a bunch of fine print that is nearly illegible due to the scaling of the tv. It’s fuzzy and has blurred edges rendering it impossible to read. I plugged in this bad boy and I was able to read every word crystal clear! The only complaint I have is that whole the graphics are clearer and the edges are crisper, far away objects in games have a slightly over-crisped texture model to them now. I don’t know if they were always there and you couldn’t tell because the quality looked like crap, but other than this it looks really good! I can finally read the in game map icons now as well! It’s a cheap fix and works great. 9/10!

Picture looks good, creates issue with ARC soundbar
This adapter works similar to other cables. I have noticed no darker image quality with this one at least in either RGB or component. No noticeable lag in either option. Overall, the image is pretty good. Sound from the TV is fine, except I can not get the soundbar to work while using this adapter through the ARC HDMI. At first, I thought it was the soundbar, then factory reset the TV. Still get the same issue. Other issues came up while this was plugged in such as HDMI link features with other consoles that support it. Oddly enough, all issues go away after unplugging this adapter. I don't think this should be a problem with most setups as all TVs are different per manufacture and I think this adapter hits the mark for what it's intended for.

Excellent product, brings my classic games to life!
Let me just say that this product is a lifesaver! I have a rather crappy 4K TV made by Amazon and this thing worked like a charm for both ps2 AND ps1! I used the RGB setting on the adapter and switched to RGB on my PlayStation 2 and I can play ps1 games on it. For ps2 games it works great, just have to mess with the display settings on my tv but now it looks nice and vibrant. Wife couldn’t believe the games I was playing were over 20 years old and still looked this good. Worth it!

Budget retro hdmi flop
Right out of the box this thing worked surprisingly well. Both PS2 and PS1 games looked very sharp, almost identical to what you'd see on emulation and how the games were meant to look. However, the second day hit and this thing showed its true cheapness. It's total junk. Picture quality looks worse than when I just connected straight from my PS2 to the TV and it was very noticeable. Not the same picture quality from day 1. Also, this device gets really hot after just 10 mins of gameplay, which was noticeable on day 1. Not worth it. Maybe Kaicos other products fair better but this was a major flop.

Use this to play ps1 system on smart tv’s
Serves its purpose well and works nicely. Use this to play ps1 on smart tv’s since they do not have the old school red white yellow inputs anymore.

BEST ONE ON THE MARKET!!!!
Ok so I have bought at least....at least 6 HDMI converters for my ps2 over the past 8 years, and this one is by far the best one that I have bought. First of all the price is right and the way its built is not cheap material. I have used this in both modes and they both look great compared to others that I have bought! Dont get me wrong you arent going to get 1080p quality but the picture is pretty close being played on a HDTV, just excellent. HINT: I found that adjusting the color, the sharpness, and the brightness on your TV helps alot! My ps2 games look great, been playing all of my sports games the last 3 weeks. This is by far the best HDMI converter on the market... spend up for this, dont buy cheap cheap plastic versions... this is it. Hope they keep on perfecting these converters... Ive found no flaws with mine at all yet. Selling all my olders ones on ebay thants to this one. A+++++ product! Game shown in my pics is NBA Live 2003 one of my favs!

No upscaling but nice, crisp output
This is the 3rd of these Kaico HDMI adapters I've bought. I also have the Dreamcast and OG Xbox versions. They all work really well and are of good sound construction for the price and are a convenient way to output your old consoles on modern TVs. Each of the Kaico adapters works slightly differently and offers different output signal options. I find this reassuring as it's obvious thatthey have spent the time to find the best possible way of outputting/converting the video signal from each console they make a cable for (rather than just repackaging the same low quality HDMI converter for each console as other brands do) One thing to note is that this cable does not upscale the image of your PS2. It mearly lets you choose from the already available output options and converts that to a clean HDMI output. So with the PS2 you are limited to RGB/Component (480p / 576i). I leave mine on component setting and it seems to work fine. The picture is in no way 'HD' by today's standards, but it's much cleaner and crisper than my previous method which was a RGB SCART cable and a billion times better than the standard 'red white yellow' composite AV cables that came supplied with most PS2s. You'll probably notice some fuzziness to text etc and cut scenes will generally be of low video quality anyway, but importantly actual game graphics are pretty damn good. Not quite to standard of my now sadly dead backwards compatible fat PS3, but good enough. (It should be noted that I keep a 720p screen to play my older consoles on, so it's possible it may not look as pretty on a 1080p or 4k screen.) *Edit* A downfall I have found is that, you can't play PS1 games on your PS2 through this cable. I guess without upscaling the output is just too 'none standard' for HDMI? Who knows. Luckily I have a PS3 Slim which does play PS1 games, bit worth noting if you have original Playstation games you wanted to dust off and play on your PS2.

Works great
I already own the Kaico PS2 HDMI adapter, but wanted to play my PS1 games also. The image quality between the two looks the same to me, and is fine if you just want to plug and play. As others have mentioned, the output defaults to 16:9 widescreen, stretching the image of (almost all) games that only support 4:3 format. Depending on your TV you can fix this by forcing your TV to display a 4:3 ratio in your TV settings. This PS1/PS2 adapter also plugs in easier into the PS2 compared to the Kaico PS2 HDMI adapter, because of the adapter having a cable.

Buen producto, compatible con estándar RGB y componente
Ten en cuenta que estos adaptadores son para TVs de la actualidad, si usted lo quiere (como yo) para un monitor debe de ver la ficha de especificaciones de su monitor para ver qué Kz corre de energía y si soporta resoluciones escaladas y no nativas ya que algunos juegos se encuentran en 481i y con escaneo pregresivo se hacen a 480p. Cómo sabemos no todos los juegos corren a 480p nativos, para eso es el escaneo progresivo pero los demás que no tengan está función no podrás ver imagen o distorcionada.
