Review on πŸ”Œ Cable Matters Flat Right Angle HDMI Adapter Combo Pack with 4K, HDR Support - 90 Degree HDMI Adapter by Kyle Bonnell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

They seem to be doing their job, but not what I was hoping for.

They were bought in the hope that I could reduce the load on the desktop HDMI port and get a better connection. The PC is located in a closet in the meeting room and needs to be angled to fit in the available space. The HDMI connection has always been a bit unreliable, and moving the computer slightly to access the port or drive caused the signal to drop. I was hoping that the problem was related to the stress on the connector and that using one of these connectors would allow us to leave the computer at a 90 degree angle rather than jamming it at an odd angle. Unfortunately, it turned out that the encapsulation of these plugs is too thick. The top and bottom should go deep enough into the available space around the PCI slot to ensure a solid connection, so I'm back to square one. My issue aside, they look like great adapters to realign the HDMI port.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
