Works perfectly. - Computer Components

Bought this cable to mount the camera in a more convenient position without having to install the RPi side by side. Now the RPi sits behind the monitor on the desk and the camera is positioned higher with a well hidden angle of view and emails me a picture every time someone comes to my desk.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • ---

High quality cable at an affordable price.

Bought to plug a Pi camera into a 3D printer with Octoprint. It was the perfect length for the job. These cables are awkward if you're trying to change direction a bit when bending, but if space is at a premium they're perfect because they're so flat.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Works, just too expensive.

A very simple cable. It works perfectly but when it didn't show up as planned I looked elsewhere and found 3 cables of different lengths in one pack at half price on Gearbest. . It finally arrived and since it's only a few dollars more I won't take the time to return it, but I will keep Amazon's delivery markup.

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • OK

Good long cable, suitable for single board computer

The cable that came with the Raspberry Pi camera is shorter than I need. It's actually longer than I need, but it works. One thing I wasn't aware of was that the connector on the Raspberry Pi 3B+ has a lifting clip that then needs to be lowered to secure the cable. (That was just my ignorance (caused by an omission in the documentation for the board, not the cable).

Pros
  • Ideal for a small house
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

works, quite long and very good quality. I use it for my touchscreen and this cable is much faster and better quality than the stock cable. It's quite expensive, but it's a guaranteed quality product. It's pretty tedious. So if you plan on mounting your Raspberry Pi to a touchscreen like me, a PhD in cable management is in order.

Pros
  • certified
Cons
  • almost never

I was put off at first by the non-standard shipping, but it arrived very quickly after a few days. It was the perfect length to mount my Octopi server under the printer and route the cable to the camera next to the print bed. What's unusual is that the day before I got home from work, Roomba decided to take a chance and burst into the room. where is my 3d printer He kind of hooked the Pi's power cord, slipped it under the pulley, pulling the Pi itself in the process, and then twisted and…

Pros
  • Easy-to-Read Control Panel
Cons
  • New Competitors Arrived

Works for quite a long time and very good quality. I use it for my touchscreen and this cable is much faster and better than the stock cable. It's quite expensive, but it's a guaranteed quality product. It's pretty tedious. So if you plan on attaching your Raspberry Pi to a touchscreen like me, a Ph.D. in cable management is in order.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • disappears

Pi no longer sits unsteadily on my printer

Fantastic. This cable is perfect for my needs. It also appears to be the same or better quality than the cable that came with my Pi Camera. I used to mount a RasPi camera in my 3D printer (check out OctoPi to get started) and the original Pi camera cable was too short. This new longer cable allowed me to finally mount the Pi board under the printer and route the ribbon cable into the case to the camera instead of letting my Pi sit unsteadily on my printer.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Legacy

Pros
  • Durable Finish
