UGREEN CM477 4K HDMI Capture Card (Camera Dongle / 1080p60 Capture / 4K30 Passthrough / Budget Plug-and-Play) Review

The UGREEN CM477 is a budget HDMI capture dongle recording 1080p60 with 4K30 passthrough, aimed at buyers who want basic console or camera capture without paying gaming-brand prices.

UGREEN is better known for cables and chargers than capture hardware, but the CM477 covers the basics competently, plug-and-play UVC operation, no drivers, a genuinely low price for 1080p60 recording with 4K30 passthrough included. It won't match Elgato or AVerMedia on software polish, overlay features, or long-term firmware support, but as a no-frills way to get a console or camera into a laptop, it does the job for noticeably less money.

Budget-Brand Value, Basic Feature Set

There's no companion streaming software bundle and no advanced overlay tools here, just plain UVC capture at a price well under the established gaming capture brands, which is exactly the appeal for cost-conscious buyers.

Comparison to Alternatives

Against the Elgato Cam Link 4K already in our catalog, the Cam Link supports genuine 4K30 direct capture while the CM477 caps recording at 1080p60, though the CM477 costs meaningfully less. Against the AVerMedia Live Gamer Mini GC311, the CM477's 1080p60 capture beats the Mini's 1080p30 cap for a comparable low price point.
