Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Premium HDMI v1.3 Cable (2M/6ft.)
Customer Review: Good while it lasted Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this cable when I purchased my tv. I originally wanted the cables to go, but the customer service rep suggested this cable so I went ahead and purchased it. They worked great until I had to switch out my satelite box. I disconnected the cable then connected them to the new box. My television wouldn't recognize the hdmi connection. I was like what!! So I switch the connectors. Same problem. I then took a look at the connectors and found out that the pins in one end were shoved back into the housing. Therefore no connection was made with the television. You get what you paid for. I purchased a new cable at monoprice. It was shipped with protective caps and the quality looks far superior.
Customer Review: HDMI v HDMI 1.3 Cable Summary: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program(What's this?)
Originally, I purchased several HDMI cables in lieu of the HDMI version 1.3 for use with my blu-ray and HDTV. It works great with my digital HDTV Samsung 750 series TV surround-sound speakers. The 1.3 version is far better than the standard HDMI cable I replaced. I understand it also doubles the bandwidth and gives me 48 bit color. The 1.3 version is a great improvement. The experts say it doubles the bandwidth and gives me 48 bit color.
Customer Review: Don't be stupid and overpay for HDMI cables: this is all you need Summary: 5 Stars
I'm the kind of person who would pay two or three times the price for other HDMI cables if I believed they were better. I paid a lot for my entertainment system, and I wouldn't skimp on cables.
However, there is no reason to spend more.
HDMI cables are a way for retailers to up-sell you and make a high margin to make up for the skinny margins on the HDTV and receiver you are purchasing. They want to charge you $30 and up for cables that are exactly like this. I have purchased around eight of these so far, and they work just fine. I do not believe for a second that there is any difference between this and any overpriced ones.
Customer Review: Solved my Roku green screen problem! Summary: 5 Stars
I previously used the Cables To Go - 40315 - 2M (6.6ft) Velocity HDMI Digital Video Cable (Blue) to connect my Roku to my Vizio VX32L. I experienced a chronic green screen when turning on the TV and selecting the Roku input. I needed to constantly get up to unplug and plug in the HDMI cable. I moved this premium cable over to the Roku and the green screen problem is no more! Word on the Roku forums is that the Roku has problems with some cables and may be some issue with HDCP. This premium cable is now my new low cost HDMI cable of choice.

I previously used a different brand HDMI cable to connect my PS3 to my HD-TV. On many occasions, the signal got interrupted.
With this Premium HDMI v1.3 cable, the problem no longer occurs. It transmits the signal at full 1080p. I am very satisfied with this product's quality and I recommend it to anybody, who is looking for a new HDMI cable, or wants to replace their current setup.
