It's a cable, it's 3 feet long. There isn't much opinion to give, if this is what you need, buy, if not, stop reading this review and go find what you need, amazon has very nearly everything (including a palm tree bubble lamp with five interchangeable colors).
The cable is flimsy and thin, basically less insulater to prevent static from other cables and electronic devices. Maybe it only impacts you if you've purchased premium cables before, like monster, but the generic cables seriously look, feel, and are lower quality cables. Honestly I've been a MonsterCables customer for years now and I recently setup a smaller LCD in a bedroom so figured I could squeeze by this time with a generic brand cable. As well as lacks prevention from bending acutely and harming performance. It is a cable that will do what its function is to perform. If you want 1080p you must have this cable, although the quality of performance you get from it will not be premium quality. Like I said this cable will give you 1080p, though it's not as comforting knowning you gave your television's quality the best chance at attaining its highes potential standards if you would have spent the extra money on the premium cables. Otherwise you just may never know, which couldn't hurt either :) Best luck on your experience this was just my two cents.
Buy this if you need an HDMI cable. This does what it says for a fraction of the cost. Don't waste your money at the "Good Buy" store locally. All the hype and catch phrases (high speed, HD, etc) are just that, HYPE, and intended to dupe buyers into paying inflated prices. Your friends, family, and dog will never see this cable so don't try to impress anyone with a "Super High Speed Data Transfer Gold Plated Mega HDTV" cable. Instead, buy this one, hook it up and enjoy.
What is there to say. It's cheap to buy, appears to be of as good construction as any HDMI cable I've ever seen, and it works beautifully. End of story.
In case the other reviews haven't convinced you already: The local retailers, including Walmart, want $25 for a 6-foot HDMI cable simply so they can rip you off. No matter, both are great, both are MUCH cheaper than the ripoffs in the local stores.BTW: If you are connecting a Blu-ray player or an unconverting DVD player to a 1080p HDTV, you *will* need one of these cables. This $4 cable works great. There's nothing "cheap" about it, it'll last longer than your TV.I ordered what I thought were two different HDMI cables from this same supplier, but both were exactly the same -- despite one being 50 cents more than the other. If you connect your equipment with regular patch cords -- which is what actually came with my Blu-ray player -- the components will automatically shift to a low-resolution mode. It's not a matter of quality of signal; you will simply be unable to convince the components to work in 1080p at all.
