Purchasing HDMI cables

Finding HDMI cables for your TV, gaming setup and more

A High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) cable carries both audio and visual material between devices. Unlike classic RCA A/V cables, which use analog signals, an HDMI cord keeps data in a digital format. It is a global industry standard for connecting high-resolution components, like a 4K Blu-ray player or a PlayStation 5 console to a 4K TV or a home theater system.

Choosing the best HDMI cable for your entertainment system starts with identifying the connector type you need. Common options include HDMI Type A (generally for TVs and computers) and mini or micro HDMI cables, HDMI Type C and HDMI Type D (popular for tablets and recording devices like 4K camcorders). If your HDMI cable and port don’t match, you may be able to use an HDMI adapter.

There are also differences between 4K HDMI cables and 8K HDMI cables. Usually, HDMI cables that can handle 8K resolution are also compatible with 4K devices. So, if you are considering getting an 8K TV in the future, it may be worth investing in higher-end HDMI cables now.

Getting the most out of your tech with HDMI

When you choose the right HDMI cords for your devices, you can make your tech life so much easier. Do you want to play footage from your DSLR camera or an action camera on your TV? Just plug your camera into the appropriate HDMI port. Do you need to wire together multiple HDMI devices? Use an HDMI cable splitter.

If you are finally upgrading your TV to a higher resolution, make sure you can make the most of that resolution. Streaming in 8K is demanding on your internet. Even streaming in 4K requires a strong and reliable internet connection. Alternatively, one of the best ways to enjoy consistently high-resolution movies and TV shows is to invest in a Blu-ray player and a high-resolution Blu-ray disk library.
