Kaico PS1 & PS2 HDMI Adapter for PlayStation 1 and 2 with RGB Switch

Wow! Just Wow! Speechless. I had your original black adaptor for over 7 years no issues and then it burnt out. Me. Nooo! I tried another one from other place horrible. I got yours today as this is the newer version the one I had back in the day and wow all I can say is Wow! Pricy but worth every peny it looks to be the best one I have had yet as day one it's clear and perfect. Still as easy to setup and well done making the USB A to Micro USB longer. Makes easier to install and have access to both RGB and Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr. As if it's in the daylight, night or any game environments it's full 1080p HD my tv says and renders it full up to 50inch on my 55in h Sony Bravia xr55x94j. For example, you can see the planes take off from the airport to the sky city lights beaming across Bayview. The clerity is perfect. I will submit more pictures of other games when get a chance. Until then make do with NFS U2 only. My settings are Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr with 16:4 ratio. Gives XR Chip exactly what it wants. As no jitter or lines as some adapters give you compatibility and connectivity issues with frequencies being converted then causes lag. So I'm happy that it's got full compatibility with my TV and runs with no issues.

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 well, came well packed and has good instructions. As with most of these, it works as a solid, quick setup bit of kit. If you're looking for the best image, this won't quite get there. It's great to have a quick blast on the ps2 with, and works as an illustration of where to go next if you want to have a better image. Works well with the games I've tested, but there's no de-interlacing built in, again it never states this as a feature, but shows what you need to improve if you want to go further. Image is also darker than original cables would be, same with most of these adapters - keep in mind. Overall - solid, well built and does the job, but don't expect miracles.

This is fantastic! I can now play my old PS2 and my favourite PS1 game Final Fantasy VII which I couldn't play on my HD TV. Brings back great memories so would highly recommend this. I also bought a WII converter from the same company but haven't tested that yet. Word of caution though, beware of the cheaper AV to HDMi adapters as they don't work

games like the suffering ,hitman contracts,splinter cell chaos theory,jak 2 and 3.cold winter,they are clean clear defined and bright.they look so much better and seem like hd. even though the source picture is still standard ps2 to 1080. no change to the background graphics.The way i look at it is, u wanna play ps2 games because of the difference the kaico hdmi adapter makes for ps2 games.IT puts a smile on your face by reliving your younger years.i have 3 tvs at home none of them were as clean defined as ps2 was on my monitor. so it shone on my dell led 2560x1440 monitor.the difference was there than my older tvs.are 4k lg led 2016 tv picture dark and not cleaned up no good.the sony bravia 1080 p led tv there was know obvious change improvement in picture no way cleaned up.same with samsung 2021 neo qled tv 4k .picture wasnt good enough.so on my newer dell monitor ps2 games were like new they shone through.it probably needs to be on newer tvs for it do its magic.anyway i am happy with my purchase .i give it 5 stars.

Got this HDMI converter to specifically use to play my PS2 Slim with and straight away, it worked an absolute treat and was super easy to set up. The image quality is okay considering it is a 25 year old console and is a little pixelly in some places, but apart from that, it does do it’s job of bringing the PS2 back to life on my 4KHD TV! Couldn’t recommend this product enough if you are looking to get yourself a PS2 and build up a retro gaming collection like I am doing. Look no further 😊

This works good but I get the odd flickering now and then

This product got me scratching my head a bit. Plug and play...ok...nope, not working. let's read the instructions...plug and play..uh huh. well, as long as you know the "small" cable that comes with the unit that plugs into a usb is to power the product then you should be fine. For the length of the cable though I have no idea how they expect people to power it when a ps1 has no usb (and yes I know it also works on a Ps2). I have a battery bank thankfully and it works fine to power this product (it lights up green so you know it's on). Edit: one more thing i noticed was some games which have darker scenes e.g shadows etc make the game unplayable. I ended up buying a different solution as this was a no no for me. The pro: it does what it says and it allows you to play ps1/ps2 on HDMI so thumbs up. The cons: 1) it needs a longer "power" cable and clearer instructions in the box 2) it gets VERY warm very fast so make sure it's on a non burn yourself surface. It is a 3/5 product because of the heat it generates when in use, hard to see darker parts of games and the extra power requirement needed to run it. Unfortunately, this isn't the best solution but for the price point i gave it a shot but it let me down :/

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.

C'est le meilleur adaptateur ps2 Permet d'utiliser le scan progressif sur notre bonne veille playstation 2 sur notre tv 4k. Les jeux ps2 sont très agréable à jouer grâce à cette adaptateur je retrouve beaucoup de plaisir à rejouer à mes jeux ps2 et la qualité et au rdv.

Avevo già preso aggeggi del genere di altre Marche ma questo è decisamente migliore. Testato su un oled lg g4 la schermata della ps2 ha una buona nitidezza, colori e stabilità d immagine. Converte perfettamente pure i segnali dei giochi ps1 ( cosa non scontata ) . Come convertitore plug and play è il migliore che ho provato, non è un ossc ( che sono dispositivi decisamente diversi) ma quello che fa lo fa bene

Wir haben den HDMI-Adapter gekauft, weil wir unsere alte PlayStation 1 endlich wieder benutzen wollten. Mit einem aktuellen Fernseher (Baujahr 2025) war das bisher einfach nicht möglich, da nur noch HDMI-Anschlüsse vorhanden sind. Der Adapter war also unsere letzte Hoffnung – und zum Glück funktioniert er wirklich sehr gut. Der Anschluss ist absolut unkompliziert. Einfach an die PlayStation stecken, HDMI-Kabel in den Fernseher und schon wird das Bild erkannt. Es musste nichts eingestellt oder herumprobiert werden, alles lief direkt beim ersten Versuch. Auch der Ton wird sauber übertragen, ohne Rauschen oder Verzögerung. Die Bildqualität ist natürlich nicht mit moderner Grafik zu vergleichen, aber das liegt ja an der Konsole selbst. Für eine PS1 ist das Bild überraschend klar und absolut ausreichend, um wieder alte Klassiker zu spielen. Wir konnten sofort wieder Tomb Raider, GTA 2 und Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater starten – genau dafür wollten wir den Adapter und genau das macht er zuverlässig. Die Verarbeitung wirkt ordentlich, das Kabel sitzt fest und nichts wackelt. Auch nach mehreren Einsätzen gab es keine Aussetzer oder Verbindungsprobleme. Einziger kleiner Kritikpunkt ist der Preis. Für einen Adapter ist er nicht ganz günstig. Da er aber wirklich funktioniert und ältere Konsolen damit wieder nutzbar werden, lohnt es sich am Ende trotzdem. Fazit: Wenn man eine alte PlayStation 1 oder 2 an einem modernen Fernseher nutzen möchte, ist dieser Adapter eine wirklich gute Lösung. Wir sind sehr zufrieden und würden ihn wieder kaufen.

Très bon produit ! Génial sur une PS2, superbe image sur un tv led !
