EDIT:
The cons are also there. This product is a "unique SKU" with little info. closest matching product is TL-SG105S-M2, which also has very little reviews.
BUT, what's REALLY disappointing is the TP-link warranty program. general info on it his like finding a need on a haystack.. but after some deep diving, this product should be a 3 year warranty. --->> VS TRENDnet switches that have lifetime warranties.
the $40 price tag of this product is crazy good, but for $60, you can get an easy-to-find info like this product:

or this one with the same 5x 2.5G ports AND an 10G SFP+ port:

Yup, I went with the Flex Mini 2.5G (bought it from B&H for $50 with free shipping) and just installed it yesterday after looking at the market and seeing how absurd unmanaged 2.5gbe switches were priced.
Good I guess if you don't need anything fancy, but the Unifi one does a lot more for only $10 more if you have the setup for it.

I also bought a Ubiquiti 2.5gbps switch. It is very compact and can be powered by a USB-C 1A cable. I plug it into my nearby mini-PC and it works great. It is one of the few reasonably priced devices that Ubiquiti sells.
