Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Mediabridge Ultra Series - High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet - (10 Feet) - Category 2 Certified - Supports 3D & Audio Return Channel [Latest HDMI Version Available]Customer Review: Ended up disappointed, despite such great reviews Summary: 1 Stars
I was really appreciative to find such a budget priced item that had great success in so many reviews. My purchase satisfaction was short lived, unfortunately.
Upon installation, the cables worked as expected and created an excellent signal, very pleased with it. No issues whatsoever.
Two weeks later, my signal from cable just stops suddenly. Fearing that it was my LCD failing somehow, I immediately investigated and started narrowing down the possible causes and troubleshooting discovered that it was indeed the HDMI cable only, along with the second one I had purchased for the video equipment. I confirmed so by trying them on other equipment elsewhere in the house and replacing the cables with other ones to see if they function.
Both were deader than a doornail with no known cause. Everything else in the house is fine, including other HDMI cables.
Perhaps they passed to close to the Kryptonite and didn't have long to live upon arrival or I just ended up with some kind of random event which causes electronic items not to behave like their dependable siblings.
Some day I may know all the answers, but for now, just a caveat for you to ponder.

Customer Review: The Perfect HDMI cable for the Playstation 3 or any Blu-Ray player Summary: 5 Stars
After researching and reading reviews of the Mediabridge Ultra Series HDMI cable I found the following:
* Category 2 Certified - High-Speed 10.2 gbps / 340 MHz (Supports up to 240hz Refresh Rates and 48-Bit Deep Color).
* Version 1.3 Certified - Supports all new HDMI advanced features such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master AudioTM.
* Supports 1080p FullHD Resolution.
* Fully Shielded Heavy Duty 28 Gauge Premium Grade Cable with Soft PVC Jacket.
* Gold Plated Shielded Connectors.
This information made the decision very simple as I knew that it had the same quality and features found with more expensive brands. The item shipped fast and was received on the first estimated delivery day. This was a relief and allowed me to set up my Playstation 3 to my 50" DLP TV at 1080P.
The image quality was above those of some more expensive brands after calibrating the TV to the output of the system. The image was reproduced perfectly with no ghosting. For the price, this is the best product for the money. You will be more than happy with this product that works consistently and perfectly. It is sturdy and durable, overall a thick cable that inspires confidence.
Customer Review: Beats the $120 Monster cable I wasted money on! Summary: 5 Stars
So I did an experiment. I bought a tv and a blu ray player at a local electronics store and did not want to wait for the HDMI cable to come in the mail before I could use my new high def devices. I decided I would spend money on the most expensive cable in the store which was a Monster 6ft HDMI for 120.00 (I had no intention of keeping it as I knew I would order a cheaper one online as soon as I got home) So I hooked my new devices up with my 120 dollar cable and went online to order this one. In the meantime I watched several Blu Rays with the Monster Cable and as soon as I received this cable I swapped it out with the Monster. NO DIFFERENCE!!! You are absurd to spend extra money on a cable that claims to increase your picture quality. High definition is just 1's and 0's people! as long as the information is transferred correctly from one device to another you don't need anything else. I returned the Monster cable and have been using this cable for about 7 months now with flawless reception!
Note: the only time you would need "gold" shielding or whatever Monster claims is if you were running 40+ feet of cable through walls etc.....don't waste your money on these high dollar cables!
Customer Review: Don't Ever Pay More For An HDMI Cable Summary: 5 Stars
As previous reviewers have mentioned, this is a Category 2 HDMI cable, which means it can transmit a signal in 1080p over a decent distance. This also means that it can carry a 3D signal. I haven't yet tested it with 3D, but if the cable got the full certification, I'm sure it's great.
The best part of this cable is the price. You'd be hard-pressed to find such good quality for anything near as good a price.
Reasons to buy this over other cables on Amazon. Technically speaking, because HDMI is a digital signal, it is not subject to electrical interference like VGA cables. However, the build-up of static electricity in the connections of some cables of lesser quality can cause brief interruptions of picture. This cable's full shielding prevent this. Also, generally speaking, the more you pay for a cable, to a certain point, the better the fit. This cable fits snugly in all of the ports I've used it on.
These reasons make this product, to this reviewer, the ideal HDMI cable. Monster would try to sell you a cable that you need to take out a small mortgage to afford. This cable does everything the Monster Cable does but at 1/10th the price.
Customer Review: HDMI cable testing with 3D material reviewed, bottom line save your money.... Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased the Samsung C8000 series 3D Plasma TV with the Samsung C6800 3D Blue-Ray player and was initially pressured to purchase the best HDMI cables available. I purchased the recommended cables ($130 each) and got everything working and looking Great. Then as an experiment I went on-line and purchased a pair of the Mediabridge Ultra Series High speed HDMI cables. These were not the cheapest HDMI cables available on-line but looked like good quality HDMI connectors and cable. The cost for these cables were approximately $15.00 dollars each for the 2M length.
I then conducted a series of tests with Blue-Ray material in both 3D and 2D formats. There were no differences in video or audio that my family could see or hear. We then viewed various HD broadcasts, again looking for artifacts or image quality differences between the cables. We were not able to see any difference between a $130 dollar cable and a $15 dollar cable and promptly returned the $130 cables.
My advice, save your money the Mediabridge Ultra Series High Speed HDMI cables are good quality cables that perform like $130 dollar cables.
