I am holding out for better port density in the 2.5/10gb speed. 4+2 is not enough (for my home needs).
8+1 (for myself) is a minimum, preferably more.
I would love to get one of those 24+2 e-cafe switches you guys reviewed but just cannot seem to find the correct hoops to jump through.

If you can't find it in your country try the full Alibaba listing here Hisource 4 Port 2.5g Without Power Supply Network Switch 2*10g Sfp For Ip Camera - Buy 4 Port Network Switch,2 Sfp+ Optical Ports,Best Network Switch Brands Product on Alibaba.com , I was able to order a "sample", it added an extra ~$7 in shipping. total with tax for me was just under $40. Wonder if I can order a second "sample" if I end up wanting another lol.
At this price point I'm going to use it partially as a glorified 10GB sfp+ to 2.5Gb ethernet for something that doesn't support 2.5 on the sfp+ natively, I already have a bunch of optics and such.

UPDATE: The shipping cost quoted was incorrect and would have actually been close to 30 bucks in shipping. I asked for the order to be canceled
I changed my address to US and I can see there's quite a few 4+2 and 5+1 switches from AliExpress sellers now around $40.
e.g.
e.g.
I found a hisource one for about 40 bucks shipped, it's on the slowboat, will report in when it gets here. The listing I got it from is already sold out. At this pricepoint they hit "utility" level.
I personally wouldn't use them for anything mission critical or my core switch, at least until get get some solid time with multiple people saying they are still stable after months of use.
