Product Review (submitted on October 29, 2015):
For anyone looking for a simple wireless HDMI setup for home or office, this product works great. First, it connects via HDMI (though it requires an open USB port for power), so there are no drivers to install like there would be on similar products utilizing only USB output. It is for all intents and purposes a cordless HDMI "cable," so you can plug it into anything with an "HDMI out" port. The video playback is high speed and virtually seamless (within the specified working distance, of course) so you will be more likely limited by the speed of your video card than by the wireless signal of the ARIES Prime.
This device also does audio, as any HDMI should. I noticed no problems with the audio, other than the fact that there was a noticeable lag of about 3 seconds once audio began playing before the device began transmitting the audio signal. This may be due to a built in feature not to transmit audio until there is actually audio playing back (maybe to preserve power/bandwidth?). This was the case with the laptop we have tested this on in one of our conference rooms, but I have not tested this yet with a Blu-ray player. If using this with a laptop, be sure to set your primary audio device output to the HDMI audio controller on your computer if you wish to output audio to a TV.
