Monoprice 8K Certified Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable - Braided - HDMI 2.1, 8K@60Hz, 4K@120Hz, 48Gbps, HDR, VRR, CL2 In-Wall Rated, 6ft, Black

I picked up this Monoprice 15ft cable after trying a very popular HDMI cable from another brand—one with a massive number of reviews but not officially certified. The difference between the two was immediately noticeable. This Monoprice cable is fully Ultra High-Speed HDMI certified, and you can actually validate it yourself. The sticker includes a hologram, and the QR code takes you straight to HDMI’s official certification page showing it’s the genuine 15ft Monoprice model. That alone gave me a lot more peace of mind. Physically, this cable is much thicker than the other 15ft cable I bought. I’m not sure if that’s because it’s CL2 in‑wall rated and has extra insulation, or if the conductors themselves are beefier—but either way, it feels like a serious, well‑built cable. The only tradeoff is that it’s stiffer and harder to bend, which might matter depending on your setup. Performance-wise, it’s been flawless so far. No signal drops, no handshake issues, and it just works the way a premium certified cable should. Overall, an awesome product and absolutely worth choosing over the uncertified alternatives.

Perfect for our xbox and ps5!!! Don't waste your money on big box names, they are all the same anyway!! Cable quality is very durable picture is crisp!! Zero lag issues and picture and sound is amazing!!!

Does exactly as advertised. Been using it to connect my computer tower to my tv that was a bit away. Picture, sound, and refresh rate are all fantastic and while playing games there’s no input lag. Cord is a little thick so hard to maneuver but it isn’t impossible and definitely feels strong enough to last. Length was perfect for what I needed with some extra just in case. And obviously it was easy to use as any other HDMI cord.

There are lot of Chinese brand cables on amazon claiming Ultra High Speed certification, but I really didn't want to have to crawl around the back of our equipment rack to swap out the cables more than once, should the claims prove false, as too many reviews of other brands have claimed, or even if quality control was to blame, which seems more likely. Monoprice seemed the safest bet, that would get here in a hurry via Prime, at an affordable price where I didn't feel like I was paying for big brand advertising or gaudy design. I've owned a lot of different cable brands over the years, but never bought Monoprice before, even though they've enjoyed high praise, even among videophile circles. These days, Monoprice has essentially become one of your better names in the cable industry for solid quality without charging name-brand premiums. Unlike a lot of brands out there, Monoprice seems to get it: just make a good product for a fair price. You don't need subjectively gaudy terminations for something that is usually concealed (not to imply these cables don't look sleek - they do, but without drawing attention to themselves, should the control panel of your display be visible to guests). Nor are superfluous video enhancements (like sharpening) desirable with HD and higher resolutions, not to mention how potentially problematic any extraneous processing can be with the dreaded HDMI handshake. Unlike analog video interconnects of yesterday, paying more for build quality doesn't provide tangible benefit for most run lengths and settings. Monoprice isn't the cheapest cable on the market, but they're close, yet still appears to offer brand name quality far below brand name prices. I'm glad they sell through amazon now, as when we need a new cable, we usually want it as fast as we can get it. We've purchased 6' and 10' lengths and can confirm these pass 4K at 120hz from a PS5. In addition to the PS5, we use these cables to carry 4K content from a standalone Panasonic UHD BD player and scaled 4K with enhanced chroma sampling from an Oppo 103 Darbee Edition BD player.

Good cables from a known well established mfg. I find they work well for my use.

I was using an older HDMI cord that came with my TV or old cable box (not sure) for eARC audio from a HiSense TV to a LG Soundbar and it kept cutting out or just not producing sound. I did some research and the first conclusion was that a HiSense TV and a LG Soundbar wouldn't communicate. I didn't accept that, so I dug further and saw some say it may be my HDMI cable. I wanted a cheaper one, but one from a brand I'd heard of. I came down to this one and another brand I hadn't heard of but got good reviews, I went with this because I'd heard of Monoprice. I hooked it up and set the TV and soundbar back to HDMI eARC for audio and turned them off and back on and have had 0 issues since then. I don't know if the sound is better than before because I have bad tinnitus in one ear and hearing loss in another, but it is consistent with no more cutting out. I can't speak on how this works for video as I wasn't getting it for that. My Amazon Fire stick is plugged directly in and doesn't need an HDMI, I use the HDMI that came with my XBox Series X with it (that's what's recommended), and the HDMI that came with the Nintendo Switch for all my video needs. If you're looking for ARC Audio at a decent price this is the way to go. I saw some complaints of the stiffness, and I agree it's stiff, but that isn't a negative to me as I was running it straight from the TV through a cord organizer to the soundbar.

My go to cables. Excellent quality - this is the brand I will always go to for any of my future cable needs.

As is now, click buy right now, there is nothing to think about, nothing to discuss. These are excellent cables, and yes hdmi is digital and digital signal is this and that and blah blah blah. What a poor cable does do, is, it makes things randomly blink, and sometimes and error would display ( roku does anyway) . Thats a bad cable. No I dont think image quality improves somehow, i dont think one could see that is 100% digital communication, but the blinking in and out, yea, thats cheaper cables. This cable is super high end without the absurd price, all my blinking is gone.
