Digital camera reviews of AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Braided Cable (6.5 Feet/2.0 Meters)

Digital camera Review: A bit more costly, but very well built
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this at the same time as I purchased the Mediabridge Ultra Series HDMI cable. I had sync issues between my cable box and my Samsung LCD HDTV and figured it was worth a try. I tried the lower cost Mediabridge Ultra first and, voila! no sync problems since! So the Mediabridge Ultra did the trick at a lower cost than this Amazon Basics cable.

So why the high review of this cable? Well, I also bought a second, larger HDTV for the bedroom and didn't have a cable for it, so the Amazon cable is working perfectly on that set while the Mediabridge does the work on the smaller set. From a functionality standpoint, I cannot and would not claim that this more costly Amazon cable is any better than the Mediabridge Ultra. But when it comes to the construction quality, the Amazon is a cut above and therefore worth a review.

While some will argue that all HDMI HiSpeed cables are the same, that is true only if the cable doesn't have any mechanical problems. For example, if your equipment is in a tight spot and the cable has to be bent 90 degrees close to the connector, there is the possibly that a lesser quality cable could suffer damage to either the connector or to some of the copper strands inside the cable itself. That may well be what caused my sync problems in the first place because the cable supplied with my Samsung TV frankly had weaker connector protection than either the Mediabridge and certainly this Amazon Basics cable. Whether any of the other EMI protection, etc. makes any difference I truly cannot say, but i can say that the Amazon cable is the best of the three that I have tried, has construction quality that appears on par with the 'best' branded cables, and the fact that I can buy 3 or 4 of these Amazon cables for the Monstrous price of one of those branded cables, and this is a no brainer! If you want a very good, high performance cable that does the job, the Mediabridge Ultra is recommended without reservation. If you want the same performance in an even higher quality of construction (and it looks nicer, too!), this Amazon Basics is worth the step up. And you are still saving lots of $$$$ over the big brand cables.

Summary of AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Braided Cable (6.5 Feet/2.0 Meters)

Where's the version number?

   According to HDMI, version numbers reflect capabilities, but do not correspond to product features. In other words, HDMI does not require manufacturers to implement everything that HDMI can do. HDMI provides a menu of capabilities and allows the manufacturer to choose which of those features make sense for its product line.

   For example, if you want the new video features called Deep Color, look for Deep Color in the feature set rather than HDMI 1.3, the version of the specification that enabled Deep Color. Why? Because the version of the specification that enables Deep Color (1.3) does not mandate that Deep Color functionality be implemented.

   As a result, HDMI strongly recommends that consumers look for products with the features they want, rather than the version number of the HDMI components.
