Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Well I think the real selling point for this cable is the convenience it provides. The swivel is perfect for those tight places and the connection to the lap top is super when you want to go big screen. The down side is the length which is limited but for the most part it is long enough. If going from the bed to the the screen it will probably work. A good addition to your wired high def world. Worth the money for the convenience it provides.Go for it and plug in.

I have to confess I'm addicted to Netflix, not just the new releases, but classic black and white films, monster movies, BBC period pieces and TV series I missed the first time around. I've been watching instant play movies on my laptop, but some films deserve a larger format.

The HDMI cable AmazonBasics High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet Flat (9.8 Feet / 3.0 Meters) effortlessly installed to my TV HDMI port and my laptop HDMI port. The ends have dual direction swivels, a nice flat, non-twisty cable, sturdy construction. Less than a minute to attach the cable, pull up the movie, and scroll through the onscreen menu on the TV switch to HDMI 2 as the source of the signal. Excellent picture and sound quality, comparable to HD cable programming. Once I was done watching the movie the cable was easily coiled and stored.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This cable came packed in a minimalist box (a good thing).

The cable is very substantial with heavy cable and protective coating. The connectors are industrial strength and will probably last forever. The length is generous, making possible a long run from control box to screen. The combined HDMI/Ethernet feature opens up capability for 3D TV, and other HDMI 1.4 functions.

With this version of cable maximum color depth doubles (over HDMI 1.2), provides an audio return channel and 4k x 2k Resolution Support.

Honest reviews on AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet - Flat (9.8

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I hope by the time you read this review, the text and photos will be corrected and I'll just look like a crazy person. But this is what I got in the mail: an approx. 10ft. HDMI 1.4 cable with standard male A style plugs on both ends. The photo shows articulating heads, which would have been great for the wall mounted TV... but it's straight and non-articulating which is fortunately passable for my mount. The product name describes it as "Flat", it's heavy braided and round. The detailed description says under one photo that it has A an style plug on one end and a B-micro on the other... this is not the case (nor does it look like that in the photos either or would I want it to be since I'd need an adapter for most TV/set-top box related usage).

So that leaves me in tricky review predicament. I may have gotten the wrong product and you might too, but if you do get the cable I did rest assured it's very well built, transmits a gorgeous clean signal and it supports all the latest HDMI goodness like 3D and internet data. Now that it's installed I don't think I'm going to change it... the old "if it's not broke don't fix it" mentality. Maybe this is just a case of getting what I needed rather than what I wanted. =)

I don't know how the manufacturer made the bendable ends but they are crap. I bought these to make installation of my TV on a wall-mount cleaner and less stressful on the wires from bending due to tight spaces behind my TV. Even though the ends are bulky they were effective at alleviating the pressure on the cables from the wall when installed on the wall mount, but the cables failed after a sort period of time. This was extremely irritating because the cables were installed in cable routing conduits that hide the cables so they took some time to install. Contrary to what you might think these cables are bulkier than most round cables and took substantial time to get installed. When they failed and my picture started flickering and cutting out frequently I was not happy to discover that it was the cable. I know for certain it was the cable and only the cable because replacing the cable with a simple one immediately fixed my problems. I ordered three of these and two of them are in the trash.
