Good product

I'm aware of the benefits of a 2.1 cable. I bought 2 sets to prepare for my incoming PS5 which also has HDMI 2.1. I did not see any benefits like high speed switching, extra colors etc it did pass the standard Audio, HDR etc. The cable itself is built well, solid and the connection feels premium.Than, I noticed the bottle neck, my home theater receiver, which I bought randomly in 2019 before HDMI 2.1 was out lacked it to complete the link to TV. I bought a new HDTV in 2020 that has HDMI 2.1 connection. Since I had everything in the receiver, and out to TV. The receiver could not pass the 2.1 or some 2.0 bonuses. As soon as I connected my PS4 PRO directly to the tv, the colors were made available. Even my PS4 PRO system menu stated that I could get higher res, colors and hertz (60 options variable) and showed them listed with HDR and without. Before It lacked them, only had the basic pass threw like 4k, HDR but lacked hertz and color enhancements.I will update this article when I get my PS5 on Nov 12th. Since that unit is built for HDMI 2.1 and my tv too. I'd be able to gauge more of the extra stuff, 120hz, color options, quick input switching etc. so far i'm not disappointed, and will buy a 3rd cable for another tv.

So at the time off my writing this review I have had mine in use for a couple of weeks. I bought the the 3.3 ft. I bought the one sold for $7.98. The difference with the cheaper one is this cable is all braided in shiny black and has a different thumb grip. This cable isn't so overly stiff as some make it sound that it is yet the are pain to find the hidden tight space HDMI ports to plug them in. Here is one important thing that you the buyer needs to know and should pay close attention to when buying is look at the sales release date. Electronic merchandise has a poor review system. Amazon doesn't bother with separating reviews from any sizes or from new and older products from the same manufacture. They rather jumble reviews to very different products than seperate each individual product with it's own review and this cable brand is no exception. This cable should be better than the same brand than that was sold on 2020.So can't really rely on old reviews. When companies come out with products it allows them to make the products better than the last ones. Audiano has released this cable in the past year. Since my review is for a cable sold on Amazon since 2021 you can trust my5 star review. However I have no way knowing if this is an older cable with slight changes to it like new braiding and plug types that got resubmitted for Ultra HDMI Certification for 2.1 or if this an all new cables because the internal wiring can only be twisted or solid wiring. To be honest I bought this cable over the UGreen HDMI 2.1 in 3.3 ft cable with an all 5 Star rating because this cable was shown with the Ultra Certification photo in the description. That meant a lot to me when I ordered it. Then I learned by watching videos how bad HDMI.org is at Certification and it doesn't mean much. There is no 100% way of really knowing that they very cable your buying is really the same Certified HDMI cable. If you buy this brand of cable there is SKU number however the only thing you get from a scan as a Sku number. There is no SKU number on the box. My box does have a number sticker but it not like SKU number and nothing on it matches the webpage. Not every cable is certified by manufacturers and they can do their own testing and present it meets the HDMI 4K or 8K standard or HDMI.org can do it's own testing. With so many HDMI cables and lengths they can't test every cable that get sent to them either. Older 4K cables can be recertified as an 8K 2.1 new HDMI cable making the HDMI.org Certification horrible. I bought this 8K cable also because this is a 2.1 and wanted to upgrade from 4K 2.0. Also this cable is all braided with shiny black cord.Another thing these numbers can't be marked or have a sticker put on boxes, or on the cables but they can do it on websites and get away with it. My final reason I bought this cable was to connect my Sony 4K Blu-Ray player from the HDMI In Audio Port to my Vizio M-Series 5.1.2 Sound bar HDMI IN Audio port. It wasn't not a poor quality cable but with no sound I decided to connect this cable to my Vizio M-Series 50"TV eARC to my Sound bar eARC.I get great picture and Dolby TrueHD sound quality. from it.A lot of HDMI reviews people will give low star and poor rating but won't tell you just what it was that they bought and Amazon convolutes the reviews. The longer the HDMI cable is like from 50 ft and over is going to have major problems for degradation especially with cheaper ones.One thing you do have to be aware of when connecting devices for seperate audio sources can get complicated with the settings on every device. From a TV you have to change your inputs and then maybe what the other device is connected to. This cable or any other type from this brand will work to what ever you connect it to. But if you need any HDMI cable is long length expect to pay a lot for the best brand. For audio devices it's devices that are connected for audio only may not play nice with each other.I will answer any question that you may have on what the difference is or you want this cable over a 4K 2.0 cable. I did my HDMI cable home work after buying this so I can share what I learned.

I purchased six or so of these a about a month ago and they've been working great. I'm not an expert on picture quality but my 4k content is at 4k. The build is sturdy and the connector-piece-thingies themselves are solid. They don't feel like plastic. The five star seal for me was the included ties. Not just one for each cable but two! Huge bonus. Keeps all the cables tight and clean instead of loose and difficult to find. I hate hunting down individual cables from behind my console when they're all tangled up.
