No issues using many HDMI features on a 20 foot cable. Recommended!

I've had two of these, 20ft each, with no issues after using them for a month. One thing to keep in mind when reading reviews is the length. Longer HDMI cables tend to be less reliable. So one brand may have great reviews because of their 6 foot cables when the same cable fails at 20 feet. Another factor is the devices you are connecting. If a device's HDMI isn't so great, it may not put out a strong enough signal to make it 20 feet on the same cable that works fine for another device. While I haven't done 4k, I've used many other features that would test an HDMI cable. I use 1080p 3D from Blu-ray, as well as the audio return channel for the apps on my TV. I also use HDMI controls to use one remote on all devices. I ran these through a conduit on my wall to hide them (I rent, so I can't put them inside the walls). It would be a pain to replace them now, so I'm glad they are working well. They are a little over 1/4" thick, though I was able to put them in a conduit with a max of 1/4", but it was a tight squeeze.For reference, I'm using these to connect a Yamaha RX-A1040 receiver to a Sony KDL-55W900a television. I tested these cables with a couple of other devices before putting them into the conduit, and they've been great.

Pros
  • Quality product, works perfectly, provides excellent picture on HD television.
Cons
  • Difficult to plug and unplug due to design
