Q: QuestionDoes this cable have the holographic sticker from HDMI licensing? A certified UHS Cable?(2 answers)
A: AnswerJust received mine and it does NOT have a holographic sticker. It does have ‘Ultra High Speed’ stamped on both ends. I was able to verify 2.1 compliance by hooking up my Xbox Series X to my LG CX and got 4K UHD @ 120HzAnswered by GooniesNeverSayDie
- A: AnswerThat’s bc Ocean 48 is exclusive to Best Buy. To the best of my knowledge the Ocean 48 would fall in between Pearl 48 and Forest 48.

Q: QuestionCan anyone explain difference between Ocean and Pearl line of cables?(2 answers)
A: AnswerI don't think there is a difference. The Ocean and Sky variants are Best Buy exclusives. The Ocean is equivalent to the Pearl and the Sky is equivalent to the Forest. If you look at the back of both boxes the Ocean has the same specs as the Pearl and the Sky has the same specs as the Forest. So, if they are the same prices, buy whichever is available and if one is cheaper than the other, then buy that one.Answered by Jeff
- A: AnswerTo be completely honest. I don’t think you need to buy this specific model! You can honestly just get the hdmi 2.1 cable that supports 4K resolution and it’s only 25 bucks if I remember correctly vs spending 2x as much for a console that doesn’t have 8k games anywhere in the near future! And make sure that your tv also has that 2.1 hdmi connection! And that it too has the ability to go at 4K with 120+ FPS capability! Then go into your ps5 settings and make sure you adjust it to your resolution preference
