The supplied power adapter is 6 feet long, so you will not be as tied to the mains as usual. There's generous spacing between the inputs and outputs, so you don't have to worry that some cable with a fat head will be able to prevent access to a neighboring port.
The supplied cables are pretty fragile.
While most RCA to HDMI converters are adopting nothing but RCA and HDMI connectors, this model also incorporates an S-Video connector, so you'll also be able to pair old camcorders and VCRs with modern-day screens.

Some find the audio quality lacking.
Old games were the best. With this device from Techole, you can revisit these games, from the Playstation 1 and 2 classics to the best titles that Nintendo had to offer in the 90s and 2000s except that, this time, you'll be enjoying them on a huge screen.

The converter will let you connect legacy devices (VCRs, camcorders, DVD players, old gaming consoles, and more) to a modern screen. The device even supports TVs with 60-hertz refresh rates. The integrated cables are neither too tight nor too loose.
The upscaling feature is not necessarily great.
The AuviPal RCA to HDMI Converter commands the smallest footprint, easily fitting people with limited space on an entertainment center. Plus, with the embedded RCA cables, you don't have to worry about forgetting or losing cables.

Easycel RCA S-Video to HDMI
Compatible even with VCRs and old Camcorders
The Easycel RCA S-Video to HDMI Converter can convert RCA, Composite, CVBS, AV, or S-Video signals to an HDMI signal. These include standard 480i(NTSC) and 576i(PAL) signal inputs but the device can also upscale them, turning low-res visuals into HD and Full HD (720 and 1080p respectively).
To add more, the model will let you have S-Video and Composite video inputs connected at the same time, so you can switch between the two inputs using the switch button. Between these supports, the device works with cameras, VCRs, DVD players, old game consoles (NES, SNES, Sega Megadrive, Game Cube, Wii, WiiU, N64, Dreamcast, Playstation 1, Playstation 2, even Atari), and more.
The spacing between the ports is generous, so even cables with the fattest heads will not be able to block neighboring ports. Lastly, unlike most converters nowadays, this one is shipped with an AC adapter, so you can even use it with TVs that do not have a USB port. The cables that are shipped with this device are a little fragile, so we're not crazy about that.

Anber-Tech (5582645063)
Integrated Cables
Not unlike most converters, the Anber-Tech 5582645063 converts RCA, AV, CVBS, and Composite signals to an HDMI 1080P (60 Hz) output signal.
The difference between this one and everyday standard converters is that this device ditches the standard RCA inputs and an HDMI output and integrates three RCA cables and an all-in-one HDMI cable, so you're not working with multiple unnecessary components. Plus, the cables are practically endless, with the RCA ones measuring 48.5 inches long and the HDMI cable stretching 16.5 inches long. Owing to these lengthy cables, you can put this device anywhere you want knowing that the screen and the content sources will be able to reach it.
To top them off, the conversion module here that turns an analog signal into a digital one incorporates 10-bit maximal 162MSPS sampling, black and white level expansion, blue stretch, color transition improvement, and dynamic range expansion, making outdated visuals come alive.

Techole RCA to HDMI
Flicker- and Distortion-Free Conversion
Mirroring its more expensive competition, the Techole RCA to HDMI Converter also comes employing a robust conversion module, relying upon 10-bit maximal 162MSPS sampling that can automatically detect and convert an analog signal into a Full HD 1080p (60Hz) output, revamping old media with sharp and realistic details.
What sells this product first and foremost though, at least when you start comparing converters, is the aluminum housing that provides excellent heat dissipation and prevents the unit from overheating even during prolonged and extensive use. Working against the housing's admirable efforts is the underwhelming audio quality that the conversion module sometimes offers.
That said, the audio is usually fine, with the device supporting PAL, NTSC3.58, NTSC4.43, SECAM, PAL/M, and PAL/N TV format inputs, converting them without adding noticeable flickering and distortion. These formats include legacy gaming consoles (from Playstation 1 and 2 to NES, SNES, N64, Dreamcast, you name them), outdated camcorders, VCRs, and more.
So, if you would like to revisit the games that made you fall in love with gaming to begin with but, this time, on a large screen with sharp details, this converter is the way to go.

AuviPal (HDMIC)
The Smallest One Yet
The AuviPal RCA to HDMI Converter is the most compact entry within this lineup, with the main unit measuring maybe ~ 3 x 2 x 2 inches, maybe even less. At the same time, replacing standard RCA connectors, this device integrates three RCA cables, so measuring the model without them would be a little dishonest since you cannot remove these cables. With them, the converter stretches 8 inches, which is still conservative considering that the cables themselves are measuring ~6 inches.
Needless to say, you can easily hide this accessory behind a TV without cluttering up the entertainment center. The HDMI cable that's shipped with the device caps at 5 inches, which's enough length to connect the converter to a TV without putting it right next to the port.
Besides that, there's nothing necessarily interesting about this converter from AuviPal. Just like most converts, this one supports PAL, NTSC, and SECAM. Opposing the integrated RCA cables is a USB port where you connect USB to HDMI cables. The upscaling module inside this one is nothing to write home about, unfortunate news but, even with these news, the AuviPal RCA to HDMI Converter makes a pretty compelling case when you take into account the model commanding the smallest footprint and the built-in RCA cables.

GANA RCA to HDMI
Switching Between HD and Full HD
The GANA RCA to HDMI Converter is a pretty sizable box, measuring 6.1 x 3.5 x 0.8 inches. On the bright side, the box comes at a price that suits all pockets (less than 15 bucks at the moment). On a less bright side, not necessarily surprising considering the cheap price, the plastic housing on this one does not dissipate heat as well as its aluminum relatives, so the device will always start overheating during prolonged use, thus we would recommend disconnecting the cables every few hours and waiting at least a few minutes before using the device one.
Going back to the side where things are bright, this little black box will let you switch between HD (720p) and Full HD (1080p) resolutions, fitting somewhat outdated TVs and cheap projectors as well as regular modern screens. In the same vein, the RCA connectors transmit the audio without reducing the bitrate and, as a result, without distorting the sound. Finally, as always, the device works with PAL, NTSC, SECAM formats.
Long (by converters' standards) story short, the GANA RCA to HDMI Converter will suit people with above-average screens as well as those who're still using a somewhat outdated, HD-ready TV or projector. With this device, pairing legacy, old, outdated, and modern devices will prove an easy task.

What Are RCA to HDMI Converters?
HDMI is the most versatile interface there is. Most displays come equipped with HDMI ports, the format transmits both video and audio without distorting them or reducing the quality. The colors always look great when transmitted through HDMI. We can continue but, short version, HDMI rocks. Legacy electronics though, such as old gaming consoles, camcorders, DVD players, VCRs, and others do not incorporate HDMI ports, so pairing them with current displays is not something you can do without employing converters, which is how you arrive at RCA to HDMI converters.
Using these converters, you can convert SECAM, 480i(NTSC), and 576i(PAL) signal inputs to HD and Full HD signal inputs. The converters we're discussing here always include three RCA connectors, though sometimes they replace these connectors with integrated cables, which is usually more convenient than the alternative. The best models are made from aluminum, so you can pretty much abuse them 24/7 knowing that the circuitry will not overheat, though cheap plastic counterparts are usually quite long-lasting as well.
Though most converters are shipped with RCA and HDMI cables (and, again, some even integrate them), sometimes they aren't, so you can purchase them separately here and here.
