I bought this cable to connect a video scaler to my Sony HDTV. It worked fine at 480p, but the picture was very snowy at 720p and above. The problem disappeared when I replaced this cable with a different brand.

I bought this cable because it was sold by Amazon and was able to get free shipping when combined with my other purchases. It wasn't the cheapest, but after factoring in shipping, ran about par with the other cables offered by 3rd party vendors.

The cable itself is nice and sturdy and worked immediately after hooking it up between my computer and plasma screen giving me 1080P resolution. The only problem I had was that the edges of the screen are cut off, but I know fault lies with the TV on this one. I couldn't be more satisfied, and a more expensive cable wouldn't make any difference.

If you have a Mac with a mini DVI port and would like to hook it up to a TV with a HDMI port, this is the cable you need ( and the MAC mini DVI to DVI adapter). Not all DVI ports are the same, THIS IS THE ONE THAT WORKS WITH THE APPLE ADAPTER. And, it works great.

Cable works well. Save your money and don't buy anything more expensive than this for your home theater needs. I play with high frequency circuits all day, so I know better than to waste cash on 'premium' name brands.

I bought this to connect my upscaling DVD player with a new Samsung LCD TV which has no DVI inputs. The picture was pink and snowy at 720p, then flickered on and off when I changed the output to 1080i (while still being pink and snowy). I connected the player to the TV using a composite cable and the picture was fine although it couldn't upconvert. Given the other reviews here, it seems like this cable works great or it doesn't work at all. Do you feel lucky?

I hooked my computer up to my 37 inch lcd HDTV and it is a perfect picture. wasn't hard to set up i would recommend this to anyone who wants HD quality.

I bought this to connect a Playstation 3 to a sony HDTV and it worked.

This product worked well with my set up using an HDTV receiver connected to my 22' flat screen computer monitor to view cable when computer is not in use. I have no way to compare it to other products but this one works fine.

With an HDMI cable, quality (meaning price) is not an issue. As long as it transmits the information, it works just as well as any much more expensive cable. This is a version 1.3 HDMI cable (which is the most advanced version out there). I have one from my Sony Blu-ray hooked up to my Onkyo TX-SR606, and another from the Onkyo to my Samsung LCD. The picture and sound is beautiful.

I'm using this cable with a late-2007 MacBook Pro 15" under Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and Windows XP SP3 (with Boot Camp). The HDMI end is plugged into a 720p projector. In both operating systems, this cable has worked perfectly, without any problems whatsoever. Works great for playing video games, watching TV shows online, etc. As far as reliability is concerned, I've had it since August 2008 and no problems so far.

As another reviewer pointed out, it's worth noting that the cable color itself is definitely a light gray and not the black that is shown on the product page. I'll upload a picture at some point showing this.
