Review on HDMI Cable 4K 3 Foot (5Pack) High Speed 18Gbps 2 by Christopher Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality and works very well at 4K.

Good quality and very good performance with 4K HDCP 2.2 (or 2.0) which means no signal loss beyond 6-12ft. Plugs fit snugly and don't fall out. The cables are a bit stiff due to the braided jacket, but I like them. If necessary, simply leave a loop or two of untwisted cable to remove unnecessary length. I actually bought these cables and am writing this review for you, not the manufacturer. I bought some "smaller" 4K cables from another source and they don't work with the new HDCP 2.2 standard (Blade Runner 2049) as they slow down the 20ms return signal sent to the 4K Ultra BluRay Player is returned, enough for some of the latest movies with the new 4K HDCP 2.0 standard and 2.2 Copy Guard not playing in 4K. If you can't get enough of that 20ms callback, movies won't play in true 4K, but will be limited to playback up to 1080p instead of 2160. What's next? HDCP3.0?

Pros
  • HDMI cable
Cons
  • blunt packaging
