An HDMI Cable. (Lack Of) Packaging Is Great! October 12, 2009 P. Colin McGraw (Castle Rock, CO) 20 out of 24 found this review helpful
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R19Q01TGH8I5RR When it comes to HDMI cables, your cable either works or it doesn't. Since HDMI is digital, you don't have cables of varying signal qualities like older analog cables, which means that when considering which cable to buy, you'd be throwing your money away to choose the $80 gold plated super duper HDMI cables over a cheaper cable like this. Google "HDMI ripoff" and you'll see what I mean in more detail.
As for this cable, it works! That's mostly what you'd want to know. It also has a nice-looking nylon braid around the cable itself, the only drawback being that it smells weird. It probably won't be a big problem when it's hooked up to your TV, but plug your nose when you open the box for the first time.
Other than that, the best feature about this cable is Amazon's "frustration free" packaging, which is simply a recyclable cardboard box with a white label holding the side flap closed, then not much else. Open the box and there's no twist ties to unwind, no plastic to cut through. No wasteful eye-catching packaging, just the cable and a small paper note about the warranty! I like the idea of it! It's better for the environment and my sanity!
I'm sold on AmazonBasics cables! October 3, 2009 J. Offenbach (N VA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I wonder what makes HDMI cables so costly. Spending over fifty dollars seems ridiculous to me, so I've been waiting for a reasonably priced, high quality, flexible cable and I found exactly what I needed with the AmazonBasics Braided Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable at 6.5 feet! Costing substantially less than comparable cables I've researched and held in my hands, this stands heads and shoulders above the others and I'm thrilled to now have my new HDTV hooked up to Cox Cable via this HDMI cable rather than the standard cables provided by the company. Without an HDMI cable, I was not receiving the full options available but don't regret waiting to get this brand and model from Amazon; I would have spent far much more money to purchase another brand and it likely would not be as flexible and substantial as this. My television is providing much more entertainment today than it was yesterday and the HD channels are overwhelmingly wonderful now! Wish I'd utilized the HDMI capability sooner, but I'm happy to have this particular cable now and more money in the wallet for popcorn and beverages.
The images provided by Amazon cover just about everything included with the exception of a little black twisty tie. Nothing is wasted in this packaging, it can be reused or recycled and you do not need tools to access the cable from the packaging. There is no chemical scent and you'll receive no cuts on the fingers from hard plastic packaging.
If you're in the market for a longer braided cable, AmazonBasics also offers a 9.8 Feet model.
Feels good... October 25, 2009 Cysis 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
just about any hdmi cable under 10ft should fit the bill...when I opened the box for this cable, I was shocked at what I found...this is the beefiest hdmi cable I have ever come across...so maybe it's just my own imagination and expectations, but I felt that the picture was a little better...whatever the case, amazon basics hdmi cable was a total welcome to my blu ray...I would recommend this cable to anyone...glad I bought it...
Just an awesome cable for "the rest of us" October 12, 2009 Derek G (Redneck, South Carolina) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
So I'm not an engineer with a mini-laboratory in my house where I can send electromagnetic pulses to test my electronics and I'm not insanely wealthy either. I'm just a regular guy who wants decent cables for his electronics and these cables are excellent quality at a nice price.
First off these cables just look and feel thicker and sturdier than the cheap cables that are also sold on this site. Secondly you get much less cable clutter using this over the huge RGB cables your cable/satellite company will likely give you (but check first to make sure they support HDMI output). Third, you just open a box and grab your cable rather than deal with those horrible clamshell plastic cases. Fourth, and most importantly you get Amazon's warranty for a year if you ever run into a problem with it. So the next time someone tries to guilt you into buying a $100 pair of Monster cables with your electronics purchase you'll know what to do.
Excellent HDMI cable October 15, 2009 ASP (NJ) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I currently own higher-end Panasonic HDMI cables, and these Amazon HDMI cables perform just as well. The high-definition video quality is great and I couldn't see a difference between the two, the thickness of the Amazon HDMI cable matches the higher-end cable, and the build-quality is strong and durable. The cable does have a stiff end so this cable does not bend as easily and is not as flexible as other cables are (in case you have your tv up against the wall, so you would need to have your tv about 6 inches away from the wall if it is on a tv stand. It may not be a problem for most TV's that will be wall-mounted, but it depends on the position and placement of the HDMI ports on the back of your TV.
The packaging that these cables came in was great and easy. It was in a small cardboard box in another box, well protected. Very easy to open, and safe inside. No damage at all.
I recommend these Amazon HDMI cables. 5 out of 5.
