Works as it should. No problems with video or audio. I use this cable with the Amazon Fire TV Stick to bring it out from behind the TV for better WIFI signal. Fire TV Stick shows full bars on the signal and works much better now.

Increase your WIFI signal to the Firestick

Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019

This HDMI cord increased my WIFI speed up to 296 Mbps out of my Max modem speed of 300Mbps. My Modem ( Infi---y) sits upstairs in my bedroom and the TV is downstairs below my bedroom. I placed the Firestick on the TV stand in FRONT of the TV like an Android TV Box sits. I'm using the 4k Firestick. The older ones only run 100 Mbps max. I read another person's comments and decided to try this one. I'm 💯 Satisfied with this HDMI cord. It is thicker than a regular HDMI cord and I do get Beautiful 4K movies and it will help with your Buffering issues as advertised.. Once you get a Better signal from behind the TV you WILL GET A FASTER SPEED. You can believe that because other people will not tell you that. I just ordered 2 more for my Brother who has Very Slow Speed and week signal. Enjoy watching your Firestick NOW... Darrell...

Works Beautifully with the Amazon Fire Stick!

Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2018

Works perfectly with the Amazon Fire Stick! I wasn't thinking when we had our TV wall mounted. Due to the location of our HDMI port, the Fire Stick wouldn't fit behind the TV. This worked perfectly and a fraction of the price in local stores. I have uploaded a few pictures for you, but the item is exactly as described. If you are looking for a little more length from your HDMI port, this is the perfect solution!

Buy this if you need 4K at 60fps

Problem solved. I have another Amazon basics cable running through my wall to a mounted TV. I bought a new TV stand and needed to extend the cable to reach my AV receiver. I went through 2x other extension cords and 2x couplers that all claimed to be 4k ready, but it turned out they could only pass through a signal at 4K if at 30fps or less. That's fine for a lot of streaming devices that output 4k at only 30fps but if you have a home theater PC or want to be future ready, it won't cut it.

This cable was the only one that I found capable of extending a full 4k60fps signal without artifacts. Bravo Amazon. Great product.

Works with fire stick

Worked great to move my fire stick away from the back of my tv so it didn't interfere with my over-the-air reception.

Fixed My Amazon Fire Stick Issue

Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2018

I bought this cable after researching the reasons why my Amazon Fire Stick kept dropping its network connection at least every other day. I really didn't think this was the answer, but since I hooked this cable up, my Fire Stick has not dropped the connection at all (knock on wood). This was a great and inexpensive solution!

Really Helped my Roku Connection

Kingsfan 760

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2020

I was having an issue with my dual band Roku Streaming+ stick being placed behind the TV and receiving 5 GHz band from my router, as is only registered as a "Fair" signal. On the 2.4 GHz band I would get the "Good" signal however the picture quality was poor so I wanted to use the 5 GHz band for a better picture quality. On a whim I thought I would try this cable to be able and move the Roku stick to the front of the TV. I'm happy to report that my Roku does not get as hot and the 5 GHz band now comes in as a "Good" signal and great picture. I'm going to buy another cable for my other Roku stick. I read on other reviews that the Roku will not run as hot and will get less interference and it appears to be true. Highly recommend this cable for the price.
