    I got the Shadowcast 2 yesterday and I streamed with it today, and so far I'm liking it. I like that all of the ports are on the back of the unit, and you don't have to use the USB that's provided with the unit. I'm using a USB 2.0 cord, and it works fine. I may not receive the highest quality video, but I'm fine with what I have.

    Can’t believe nobody is talking about the USB 2.0 port. Kinda scummy for them to make it blue when it’s only 2.0, when the first dock has 3.0. For the Switch, of course it doesn’t matter since it only supports USB 2.0 anyway. But the whole point of the 2nd generation is to be more versatile, and the lack of USB 3.0 is a huge deal for me. Not cool of them leaving that downgrade out of the marketing material. I’m guessing it has something to do with limitations of USB C Alt Mode having 4K60 and USB 3 at the same time, but it would have been nice if they were at least clear about it.

    • @itcamefromabox
      @itcamefromabox  9 місяців тому +1

      Hey Sethery, I reached out to them and they said there's apparently a new standard: orange = power and blue = data + power 😮

      @SirSethery 9 місяців тому

      @@itcamefromabox
      That's an actual load of crap. Orange USB ports have never meant "no data". They've always just meant that the port supports higher power output than a standard port. And blue ports have always signified at least USB 3.0. If that was their actual response, then I'm a bit reluctant to buy any more of their products.

      @@itcamefromabox To be fair, it is still really impressive that they got it to 45W without increasing the size, and I’ll probably end up getting one since the first version can’t charge my laptop. It’s just a bummer that the V2 is worse than the V1 in any situation where data transfer speed is important, and it seems like they’re being a bit sneaky about it. Also, it’ll be obsolete if the Switch successor supports USB 3 speeds.
