Will it work on HDMI 2.0 ?
alexander s
on Jun 30, 2021
BEST ANSWER: HDMI 2.1 cables are backward compatible, yes. I'm using these cables to connect devices (XBoxOne, PS4, older smart TVs, DVRs, etc.) that are NOT 2.1 compatible and they work fine. Not a conclusive statement of backward compatibility, but I've seen nothing to suggest otherwise. Most notable change is in the encoding scheme; it is improved in 2.1 so that more of the total bit rate is available for transmission. The new 16b/18b is backward compatible with TDMS (effectively an 8b/10b).

Does the braided cable give better FLEXIBILITY?

BEST ANSWER: Flexibility is about the same as the non-braided cables but I noticed an improvement in the color and detail of the picture.

It does. Prevents the cable from being crimped. More durable.

Are these cables thick and hard to manipulate? I was going to purchase zeskit cables but learned they were very stiff and hard to manipulate.
New User U
on Mar 31, 2021
BEST ANSWER: They are not super thin and can be manipulated.. this will work according to what you say you don't want.. works with all said formats as well but 8k untested as I only have 4k equipment.. I have bought cables from here for a long time and these are my favorites out of all previous ones I have bought.

They are average thickness. I have had thicker and thinner I would say they are just right,, closer to large than small but you can manipulate them. I had to curve one some and it worked fine. These I think will meet your needs according to

What is difference between this and Product # 42674 which seems to have same specs?
Michael T
on Jul 9, 2021
BEST ANSWER: There is no difference when it comes to performance. It’s all aesthetics. The braided cord will hold up a bit better if your cord is twisted a lot and the end connector is metal instead of plastic which will hold up better over time.

I was (and still am) a bit of a skeptic around the improved performance of newer high speed cable. I've been told for years that "any HDMI cable is just an HDMI cable and any fancy branding is just there for marketing".
That all seemed true up until my Apple TV 4K 2nd gen started cycling through display modes while connected through my receiver to my TV. I was puzzled by this problem and searched the internet. Their suggestion? Try replacing the HDMI cable with a better one.
So I took their advice and bought this and some other 8K cables. Used this to replace receiver to TV (the most vital connection) and another 8K cable from receiver to ATV. Issue solved! I can now say that this was 100% worth the purchase. The quality of the cable is excellent and I would gladly buy it again.

Good hdmi cables
Was anxious to try these hoping they would connect better than my current hdmi cords to my Samsung tv?s ARC setup along with my surround sound system. Picture & sound come out great but still finding I have to unplug and reset the system every now & then when no sound is present. Frustrating?.

Had some weird connectivity issues between my Roku Ultra and my Samsung soundbar. I saw that some people fixed this by upgrading the cables so I tried it. Worked like a charm.
