I've been impressed with the Best Buy essentials series. They provide certified, high speed cables and other products. I was disappointed with a prior purchase of Rocketfish ones which did not appear compatible with my 2.1 eARC system - TV and soundbar. They were 2022 and 2021 models respectively. (Rocketfish caused them to unsync for unknown reasons.)
No problems with my AV equipment in the last year that I've noticed with the Best Buy essentials.

I need an extra cable in case I wanted to play my Switch 2 on other tvs and this was just what I needed. It works the same and the picture quality is great.

This is probably the best HDMI cable I own it works great with my Xbox X and my monitor. I would buy it again. I just wish I would’ve bought it longer one.

One day, I wondered into Best Buy in search of the perfect HDMI cable to enhance my home entertainment system. After browsing through the aisles, I stumbled upon the Best Buy Essentials, 6’ 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI cable, which promised to deliver crystal-clear picture quality and lightning-fast data transfer speeds.
Excited by the prospect of upgrading my viewing experience, I decided to purchase the cable and put it to the test. Upon setting it up at home, I were blown away by the stunning clarity and vivid colors that the cable delivered. From streaming my favorite anime in 4K resolution to playing the latest video games like
Castle Wolfenstein with zero lag, the 6 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI cable exceeded all of my expectations.
In the end, I couldn't help but leave a glowing review for Best Buy, praising the store for carrying such a top-notch product. I marveled at how a simple cable could make such a significant difference in my entertainment setup and I vowed to return to Best Buy for all my future tech needs.

I bought this HDMI cable to go along with my PS5 and Samsung TV to make sure I could 120Hz when gaming. Once I plugged in this HDMI cable my TV recognized my ps5 and vice versa. My PS5 automatically brought up the menu options needed to best setup everything for optional gaming. It also allows for upscaling programming that isn't 4k. For the price, you can't beat this cable. I highly recommend!

Perfect replacement after my first VR session ended with a surprise punch to the monitor—sent it flying, snapped the HDMI clean off. Lesson learned. This one works like a charm—and at a great price too.
