There's no real consensus on whether or not gold-plated HDMI cables are actually any better than regular ones. Some people swear by them, while others say they've never noticed a difference. If you're looking to get the best possible performance out of your home theater setup, gold-plated cables might be worth a try.
There are a lot of options available when it comes to HDMI cables, and the price can range from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars. So, are more expensive HDMI cables really better? The answer is: it depends. If you're just looking to connect a Blu-ray player to a TV, any HDMI cable will do the job just fine. However, if you're looking to connect high-end audio/video equipment, or you need a longer cable run, then you'll want to invest in a higher quality cable. Higher quality cables are made with
There is no definitive answer when it comes to HDMI cables and whether or not shorter cables are better. It really depends on the individual setup and what works best for that particular setup. In general, shorter cables tend to be less expensive and are less likely to cause signal interference.
The quality of your HDMI cable can definitely affect your video and audio experience. Cheap cables are more likely to cause signal degradation which can result in fuzzy images and audio static. If you want to avoid problems, it's worth it to invest in a high-quality HDMI cable.

Please refrain from wasting your money on expensive HDMI cables under the pretense of better picture or sound. These AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI cables have worked beautifully when I've used them to link our Yamaha v379 AV receiver to other HDMI compatible devices that connect back to our 4K Samsung Smart TV.There are four types of HDMI cables: Normal speed to Normal speed with Ethernet to Ethernet-enabled high speed is high speed. Standard-speed cords are truly no longer necessary because High-speed cables (like these AmazonBasics cables) are so inexpensive. The majority of HDMI devices available today, however, cannot receive Ethernet over HDMI, so all you really need are high-speed HDMI connections.** A few figures **Standard-speed HDMI cables have a 1080i rating ("i" stands for interlaced). A HDMI cable can only be labeled as "High-speed" if it can display resolutions up to 4K (3840 x 2160) at 30 frames per second (or 4,096 x 2160 at 24fps). Even if you found a $100 cable at your local BestBuy that claims it can transmit much more than that, it wouldn't matter because you are limited by your source (such as your cable box, Xbox, PS4, etc.) and your TV's hardware capabilities. The highest resolution any 4K TV currently on the market can produce is 3840 x 2160 at 30 frames per second.Additionally, HDMI cables sometimes provide no image or sound at all. NO in-between exists. A HDMI cable will therefore either function or it won't (it may display a flashing image, but this indicates a bad cable). However, a more expensive HDMI cable won't display finer colors and deeper blacks than a cheaper HDMI cable. Either you receive the entire signal or none at all. Now, if you want to run your HDMI cable for a distance more than 50 feet, you might want to get an HDMI cable with "active" chips that help preserve the signal quality over a longer distance (but do NOT improve the image/sound quality over the source).What about HDMI versions 1.4, 2.0, or 2.2?Due to manufacturer marketing, this is yet another widespread misunderstanding. Hardware upgrades like HDMI 1.4, 2.0, and HDCP 2.2 do not call for a cable replacement! There is no such thing as an HDMI 1.4, 2.0, or HDCP 2.2 cable, despite the fact that there is a distinction between them (you may look that up on your own)! The version numbers do NOT apply to the HDMI cable itself; rather, they apply to the hardware that the cable connects to. The cable is merely a conduit that connects the two.

I routinely advise friends and relatives to quit squandering money by purchasing cables from big-box stores because they are simply too pricey. As a former stereo equipment salesperson, I can attest that it was always advised to "push new cables on new purchases." I believe that cables and other items have a higher markup than jewelry! It's really awful. Therefore, avoid purchasing those exorbitant cables and instead purchase them from Amazon here or from a few other internet merchants for a much, MUCH lower price. They don't have the fancy colors or labeling, yet they nevertheless function just as well as name brand cables. But hey, if you have one of those unlimited budgets and cash is no object, go ahead and purchase that $100 per foot, 4 gauge speaker wire, or other wildly pricey interconnects.

Excellent quality! With complete HDMI functionality, this cable took the place of a DVI cable. My video is now incredibly clear, the colors are true to themselves, and there are no artifacts. Although the cable appears to be hard in the image, it is surprisingly flexible and compliant. I am so happy with this wonderful product that I am going to get another one so I can connect my 1080P Panasonic plasma TV to both my desktop and laptop PC. They will also function with my 4K OLED TV once I can buy one. Is it necessary to remind you that audio now passes over HDMI?However, even though it has nothing to do with this connection, make sure you disable the OVERSCAN option on your TV. Do this for EVERY input and, if the TV is a "smart," also for the phantom input that is linked to the device's W/LAN. The better picture you receive will astound you! You may view the entire computer monitor on your TV, and you will also get far more detailed images and video. You can quickly become an expert by searching for "how to turn off overscan on my TV" or similar terms on the WWWeb. As a legacy, built-in "fix" for analog, CRT TVs, overscan is a standard feature on almost all digital TVs. It CAN be disabled, usually by renaming your inputs to DVI/PC, though the specific steps may differ depending on the manufacturer. Check it out.Why then do we defeat overscan? Simply because it enlarges the remaining pixels to fill your screen while discarding up to 20% of your pixels. This indicates that you are viewing a DIGITALLY ZOOMED image on your wonderful, sharp, big-screen TV. Very bad. Additionally, if you use your TV as a computer monitor, all of your border details, such as toolbars and edge icons, are either missing entirely or are only partially there. Oh, and the lovely wallpaper that makes your laptop appear so fantastic is grainy, washed out, and lacks all the enticing elements of a well-composed photograph.Enough said. Excellent pricing and cable.

This cable is excellent for 4k at 60Hz. The braided wire is the reason I chose this cable over others. A USB-C to DisplayPort converter could be preferable if you have a Dell P2715Q, though. This monitor's early iterations from Dell only support HDMI 1.4, which results in a maximum frame rate of 30Hz. The more recent ones (bought after February 2016) support HDMI 2.0 and 4k @ 60Hz, however you have to enable a particular setting first. I was able to do this successfully, and I'm grateful to be able to utilize both ports at 60Hz without having to swap the cable out or use a specific adapter since I'm using the DP port on the display to connect a different machine. Just be aware that setting this up necessitates an additional step.The procedures listed below can be used to enable HDMI 2.0 in your P2415Q or P2715Q flat panel monitors bought after February 2016:Disconnect all video cords from the monitor. (Only leave the display's power cord attached.) It is not enough to simply unplug from your computer; you also need to unplug the HDMI wire from the monitor's back!Activate the display.Opt for the HDMI (MHL) input. (There will be a floating dialog window.)For 6 to 8 seconds, press and hold the button next to the green check mark.A dialogue box with the heading HDMI 1.4 Enable/Disable appears.To disable HDMI 1.4 support, choose that option, then click the button next to the green check mark to confirm your choice.Reconnect the display's video cords.

This is a cable, to put it briefly. The cable appears to be well-made and performs as expected, which is why it receives five stars.For context, I used this connection to connect the DisplayPort video output of my computer to the HDMI input of my LED display in place of an HDMI cable and a DisplayPort to HDMI adaptor. I chose to test this cable instead of the dongle since I had been experiencing sporadic issues with the display blanking out or losing sync as well as startup delays during which Windows appeared to be hunting for something. It appears to have effectively addressed both issues. Yay!But as I read the reviews, I saw that some individuals complained that the cable didn't fit, wasn't functional, or lowered the video resolution. I think the majority of them people merely purchased the incorrect cable. Let me attempt to make things a little clearer.1. This connection is intended to link a full-sized HDMI input to a full-sized DisplayPort output (for instance, on a computer) (for example, on a monitor, television, or projector). If you're not attempting that, then this cable is not the right choice for you.2. The HDMI standard must be used for both the source (such as a computer) and the destination (such as a display). It cannot be used the other way around. This wire is unidirectional, not bidirectional, in computer jargon.3. If your display is set to 4K/UHD (3840 x 2160), you DO NOT need this cable. You need an HDMI 1.4 cable for 4K. This cable can only be used with resolutions up to Full HD (1920x1080).Last but not least, remember that using this connection DOES NOT require a DisplayPort to HDMI dongle. Both the dongle and the cable are replaced by this cable. Therefore, if you're already using a dongle and cable, take them both out before connecting this cable.Richard

Initially, I bought VGA to HTML cords and tried to make it work for several days, even asking for help from the Amazon Community. Sadly, it was unable to recognize the display. I then began repeatedly reading the specifications. I had a "light bulb moment" and understood I required HTML to VGA. I placed an order for your device, connected the wires, and my new laptop was operating with my much larger monitor. Keep in mind: You need VGA to HTML to connect an old laptop to a new monitor. You need HTML and VGA cables to connect a new laptop to an old monitor.
No, it cannot. HDMI cables are not capable of affecting picture quality.
4K HDMI cables are the latest type of HDMI cable on the market. They are designed to transmit a 4K video signal from one device to another. If you have a 4K TV or other 4K-compatible device, you will need a 4K HDMI cable to connect it to your TV.
When it comes to HDMI cables, the general rule is that you get what you pay for. The more expensive the cable, the better the quality. However, there are some cheaper options out there that can still provide good quality. It really depends on your needs and budget.
A smart TV needs an HDMI cable to connect to streaming services, like Netflix or Hulu. The HDMI cable is how the TV gets internet access and without it, the TV can't connect to these services. Many smart TVs come with an HDMI cable included, but if yours didn't, you'll need to buy one.
If you want to ensure that your HDMI cable is 4K-compliant, then there are a few things that you need to look for. Firstly, check the label on the cable itself, as it should clearly state that it is 4K-compatible. Secondly, take a look at the connector type - it should be either HDMI 2.0 or Mini DisplayPort 1.2. Finally, check the resolution and frame rate that the cable is able to support - it should be able to handle at least 4096x2160p at 60Hz.
HDMI is a great option for those looking to get the most out of their 144Hz monitor. HDMI provides the best image quality and refresh rate possible, making it the ideal choice for gamers who want to get the most out of their gaming experience. However, HDMI is not the only option for those looking to use a 144Hz monitor. DisplayPort is also a great option for those looking to get the most out of their monitor. DisplayPort provides the same image quality and refresh rate as HDMI, but also offers support for G-Sync and FreeSync.
