The HDMI cable is a VERY strong cable and works perfectly. I never thought HDMI cables could have different capabilities, but they do. This works with all devices I use; Sony Google TV (NSZ-GS7), Nexus 4 (with Slimport, other brand HDMI cables won't work) and Xbox 360. It's not as flexible as the others, but you don't have to worry about cables. wear.
