Looks great and all but i purchased a new LG C1 TV, a new xbox series X and this cable…and randomly out of nowhere the video disconnects…i have to unplug n plug the cable for the video to come back. Now tell me which one should i suspect that causes the problem, the tv , xbox or this cable…Graphics look wonderful, but not sure if its the tv or the cable itself

Absolute waste of money.
I've used both rocketfish and best buy brand HDMI 2.1 cables and they're no better than this very overpriced cable.
I bought a 75" Hisense U8k (phenomenal tv) and wanted a premium cable to connect my PS5. There's zero difference between this and the cheapest offerings at best buy.

This was 1 of 11 items promised by Best Buy for Xmas. 10 of 11 items never arrived and were promised by Best Buy, my wife n I were told to stay awake Xmas eve that everything was still coming, but never got delivered! I have made numerous calls to Best Buy and they have not been answering or returning my calls. My Xmas was ruined because Best Buy promised me 11 presents and 1 showed up on time! I will review each item n explain!!!

The cable couldn't even reach last gen HDMI speeds... Failed to even reach 18gbs.
Tested the cable 3 times with in out arrows facing the correct direction. Then did the same backwards.
Cable failed all 6 tests...

There is a very noticeable difference in picture and sound quality with these cables versus anything I've ever used in the past. There is no latency. The manufacturing process and design are important. I regret waiting so long to update to these cables from the free ones my cable provider supplied.
One of the main things was the exclusion of oxygen when the copper cables are drawn; the more pure the copper, the more efficiently the signal conduction.
Also they are direction-specific. That is, the cables have arrows on the ends...think of it as a 'to / from' (for instance 'From' the cable box 'To' the Receiver, 'From' the Receiver 'To' the tv). It's separated to conduct interfenence signals in the opposite direction as the desired signal.
They are intended for use in walls, but sinse the wire itself is so thin, I use it in my entertainment center as-is. I just use more care when uncoiling, making sure it does not get bent or pinched.

Despite all four of my Samsung 4K TVs and both of my Omen gaming desktop PCs having only HDMI 2.0 ports, they still significantly enhance everything—picture, sound, clarity, etc. I also replaced the original HDMI cable that came with my PS5, and the improvement was remarkable! Pricy...but buying cheaper is not always better. I highly recommend it!

I upgraded my 2019 Q60 to a 2022 Q80A with this Samsung Soundbar Q850T/ZA. I was using a standard HMDI cable from TV to Soundbar and it sounded great, Figured I would get some new HDMI cords and so many to choose from. The Best Buy cool dude, suggested this one was gonna give me more range for Sound and Gaming etc...
So I got it home ran the this one down my wall and didnt know the direction mattered. So I got it all hooked up using my old low quality one up to test it out. So it worked sound was good, then I switched cords to this Ocean 5 cord and it instantly was noticeable, the TV recognized the Q850T/ZA by name, it actual now turns on and off with my Tv remote, something it never did with the old cord.
The sound level increased instead of maxing the sound bar to make it loud, it gets super loud at half the level.
Yeah it makes a HUGE difference on the HDMI cord used, Im a believer now. I wish I got one of these back in when I got the old tv/soundbar combo, Truly I missed out the level of quality using that cheap low quality HDMI Cord.
Advice spend the extra for a good one.. You wont regret it. Blown away, I will never use cheap ones again.

Got this for my oled (minor flex) and had to connect it the apple tv 4k (another minor flex) but i had to get another hdmi because i have the hdmi sync box set up with the lg C5 (again lil soft flex). Amazing quality cable that eliminates noise and keeps 120 hz for gaming!

I was hesitant to spend this kind of money on HDMI cables - but I am so glad I did! I have the new Xbox Series X with the LG CX and figured since I have a top of the line game system and TV let’s make sure I have top of the line cables - especially since I was having some picture quality issues and I could not figure out why. I have watched multiple videos, changed settings and nothing helped. The Xbox came with a 2.1 cable but when playing Rocket League a couple of the stadiums would be very blurry then pop in and out - it was very annoying. I thought a new cable was worth a shot but I didn’t have high hopes it would fix my issue - but it did! The game looks amazing now so I am sure this will help the picture quality of other games and movies. I have also noticed a difference with the blacks when watching a movie - before I would get some grayish or foggy blacks sometimes when streaming movies (not as bad with Blu-rays). I need a little more time and need to watch a few more movies but so far so good and the blacks look fantastic. I am glad I took a chance and bought these - even bought a second one for my man cave set up.

Great speed and quality. Connectors are solid. All these benefits come with its big price tag. And this model is one of the their cheapest!
