    Just the right length and has a good feel when fitting into the tv hdmi port. I think there’s a noticeable difference while using my Xbox series X.

    The best HDMI cords

    Fantastic HDMI cords! I have found it important to buy certified 8K HDMI 2.1. This worked perfectly with our new LG 65 inch smartTV. We ran these cords through the wall to the TV wall mount above our fireplace. Have had no video/sound issues with streaming/cable channels with the 12 foot cord length. These cords are very durable and appear to be made with high quality. Expensive but excellent.

    I wasn't getting the appropriate picture in 4K HD and thought I would replace the cable between the cable box and television. That fixed the problem. It was easily changed and got great assistance from the Best Buy salesperson.

    We recently bought a sony AV receiver 5.1 and a samsung frame tv, the representative at store explained is the best possible options for connecting those devices and explained us about this Rocketfish 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI cable, and gave us live examples from display for sound clarity, with audio and video sync. This is a great product works effectively, we are enjoying a great TV time. There are high end choices in the same brand too, but this 8k option was great for system. Highly recommended option to enjoy best time.

    Last cable went out and I wanted to get one that was really premium instead of something cheap from Amazon. This works flawlessly and the ARC audio seems a bit crisper too compared to my previous cable. NOT cheap however but this is the solution for those that need a serious solution.

    These two Ultra HDMI cables are working well and sending a great signal from my 4K Apple TV box and my 4K Blue Ray player through to my 4K TV. They are high quality but expensive. Bought from Best Buy, where I received good advice and great help making my purchases.

    My TV is above the fireplace mantle and my PlayStation is to far away for the provided cable to reach. I got this cable, so it would still be compatible with the HDMI 2.1 quality and not affect the picture quality of the PS5. It's a nice cable, and the variety of lengths that they offer are good for any setup. My only concern is that the plugs get a little warm during use. Nothing too concerning, but I'm not sure if other cables do this or not.

    A Good Choice

    This is my third 'Rocketfish' HDMI cable. The first purchase was their 4K cable. I was not impressed with the performance of that cable. So, when I needed another longer HDMI cable, I chose the 8K, because it was on sale. I was not disappointed. It was a far superior cable to the 4K. This time I needed another longer cable at 12 feet. Rocketfish was the only manufacturer to make a cable in that length. The competition was all limited to 10 feet. However, it was not on sale, which put it in the price range of Audioquest, but they were limited to 10 feet. As for performance, I find it bright, colorful, with good detail. I put it on par with my AudioQuest and Anker cables. The major difference is size. The Rocketfish cables are thick and bulky, but they bend easier than AudioQuest. This may affect installation.

    I swapped out my old no-name HDMI for the Rocketfish 2' 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cable and the difference in picture quality was instantly noticeable—everything looks sharper and more vibrant now. The build feels super solid, and it easily handles 4K and even 8K content without any issues. No more random glitches or lag, and it just works perfectly with my setup. If you want a cable that actually makes a difference, this one’s totally worth it

    I know next to nothing about the differences in the quality of HDMI cables. This one was recommended by a very knowledgeable tech guy at BB and I trusted his no-pressure advice. With the cable plugged into the arc/e-arc HDMI port on my new Sony Bravia TV, the result is that I have the sharpest picture and sound quality ever especially when I'm watching a blu-ray on my upscaling Panasonic 4k player! Bit pricey for an HDMI cable but not nearly as much as some others.

    This is what I needed to run my pc and ps5 games at 4k with 60 frames per second on my tv. It wasn't clear to me at the time that this "HDMI 2.1 " certified but i was told that a cable rated for 8k was the way to go. excellent cable.

    I have a Apple 4K TV. It was experiencing random drop outs. Had som high speed cables (Monster UHD 21Gbs) I went on all the Apple forums to find out why this kept happening. The consensus was the cables weren’t fast enough. I was going to but the Belkin 4K cables that were recommended by Apple for what would have been a higher price. Search the BB web site and Rocketfish came up. These are highly rated and certified by HDMI.org. If it doesn't have the sticker, its not certified. Bought them (5) to replace all the cabling for my HT system. Did an update and everything seems to be clearer and sharpers. The colors just pop! It has only been a week, but I have experienced no drop outs or blocking. I will give it some more time and will update if there are any changes.
