What the ESTONE YCY-2353 does

This USB 3.0 capture device accepts an HDMI signal up to 4K at 30 Hz and records or streams at 1080p up to 60 fps. It suits creators who need a simple way to bring console gameplay, camera feeds or conference video into Windows, macOS, Linux or Android without opening a PC case. The aluminium body draws under 2.5 W and runs from the USB port alone.

Accessories that change the workflow

A USB 3.0 cable and a printed manual are included so the unit works out of the box. The HDMI loop-through output passes the source image to a monitor or projector at up to 4K 30 Hz while the USB stream captures 1080p, letting you game or present on a big screen and record simultaneously. An S-Video port adds legacy analogue input for older cameras or decks.

Installation experience and common issues

Driver-free UVC and UAC support means most systems recognise the device instantly in OBS, Zoom or other software. The manual lists a desktop i5-3400 or laptop i7-3537U CPU, a GT630 or GT735M graphics card and 4 GB RAM as minimum specs; machines below that may drop frames at higher frame rates. USB 2.0 ports work but limit throughput to well under the 300–350 MB/s the hardware can deliver.

Questions about this item

Will the aluminium-alloy casing or USB 3.0 connector need any periodic servicing?

No scheduled servicing is required; the aluminium-alloy body and USB 3.0 plug are solid-state with no moving parts to wear out.

What throughput ceiling appears first when capturing 1080p 60 Hz video continuously?

The USB 3.0 link caps sustained throughput at 300-350 MB/s, which is reached before the 1080p 60 Hz stream exceeds the bus.

How warm does the dongle get and how much power does it draw during an all-day stream?

It draws ≤2.5 W from the USB port and stays cool enough for continuous use without an external power supply or fan.
