How much research did you do before you bought your HDMI cables?
I do mad research on everything I buy.
I don't do any really either. I just make sure it's able to do the bandwidth I need....which is only hi-speed. Belkin cables have a fanbase lol. I'm still rocking the factory PS4 PRO HDMI 2.0 cable, and another nicer cable from Walmart, that has lit up RGB ends.
@@mrorangeDenver I do too, to an extent, but not with HDMI cables anymore.... I've bought enough over the years. I have enough of them as it is. Some of them are older 1.4 cable's though.
Researched for HDR and 4:2:2 for Xbox one x/Apple TV. Got Belkin HDMI and it works well on both devices using all the features. Thanks for the video it helps with the new tv OLED I am getting soon.
How about fiber HDMI cable STF??
Thank you for this review!! Just recently discovered you guys when shopping for my new OLED. Clicked your link, bought the cables. Liked and subscribed too! Keep up the good work!
Perfect plain simple English on the "WHAT hdmi CABLE SHOULD I BUY ??" Perfect delivery and consise information.
10/10 video breakdown.
I just bought a Sony x950h, on sale at BB, based on your really helpful reviews. Realizing that I better get HDMI cables before the TV is delivered, I jumped on Amazon this morning. After 30 minutes I had such a headache. I'm 65 and just wanted to know what $$#& cable will work with my TV.
Thanks so much for the easy to understand use explanation AND product links. I stopped the video, hit your links, bought two cables on Amazon that didn't cost more than the TV, and jump back on CZcams to finish your video. Perfect đ
Wow! Thank you for breaking this down to a plain and simple explanation. The best video here. đđđđđâââââ
Thanks for the no BS, no-nonsense advice/information. I use Amazon Basic and Monoprice 2.0 cables with my Samsung 4K set. - 6" cables and one 25' to my laptop. All work perfectly - of course, I mostly stream content and watch dvd/blu-ray discs. But I'm an OF. Subscribed.
Thanks, FOMO. Now, my wife has a hairy vagina, do you have advice on that?
I learned quite a bit from this video. Thanks for the education!
Thank you, you just settled what display im going to get for my ps5
Love the background music man đđŒđđ»đđŒ
Thanks for the information i'll have a look at monoprice's HDMI 2.1 cable once Sony adds the HDMI 2.1 update for the Sony 55 XH90 Bravia TV which i'm currently using.
Hi FOMO! Thanks for all the great videos. The expensive AudioQuest HDMI cables you mentioned are not for home theater use; I canât imagine them making a big enough difference to be worth their price in such a use case. They are really only for use in ultra high-end HiFi audio systems, where cables make a very big difference in the sound for critical listening. This week I obtained one such cable, and am using it as the I2S interface cable from a PS Audio SACD transport into a Holo Audio May KTE DAC. The main transducer system I use with this setup is a HiFiMan electrostatic headphone system, which is known as a ruthless microscope into the source material. In a system with this kind of resolving power, it is VERY easy to hear the difference cables make, this signal cable being no exception. But again, it is most definitely NOT for use in a home theater rig, where neither the sound equipment nor the video signal could possibly be made that much different by it while simply playing a movie.
Great video. I know with new TVs and gaming consoles coming out this is a big topic. Thanks for breaking it down.
This is pretty awesome, and I learn a lot from your video so no more expensive cables. :)
Awesome channel. No nonsense information. Much appreciated bud
I love your videos very helpful! I went with PS5, 1 gig Internet, 48 gbps hdmi cable, cat 6 cable, LGcx65, Klipsch speakers and a Denon processor. Respect the tech yo!
I loved the video, great information, I'd like to see the blind test of the premium HDMI cable to see if you can see "the last 2%"
Amazingly informative video. Thank you. I'll be sticking to 2.0 HDmi that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
I just got the Sony bravia x900h, waiting for the 2.1 upgrade that will be coming soon. Going to order the 13 dollar cable you mentioned. Thanks your knowledge is appreciated. đ€
Fancy outfit this time. đ thank you for the helpful video.
Thank for clearing up the confusion on cables
Hi great video and thanks for the info!!!! I seen on Amazon where they offered a ultra slim version are there any difference between the the two besides one slim
Really good vid, was thinking about getting a hdmi 2.1 but did some research and my tv doesnât have itđ€·đżââïž, thanks!
Great video! My 2c on Audioquest cables based on my experience using and selling them-- for video, i doubt anyone would notice any difference at all. Either they work or they dont. For audio, it is a whole 'nother ball game. I've done the tests, and you can clearly hear a difference from a $5 cable to a $50 or hundred dollar one. Beyond that, clearly diminishing returns. With that being said, we are talking about speakers that are at minimum 2 grand for a pair with high end receivers etc to hear the difference. if you are using a home-theater-in-a-box or soundbar, of course the exotic cables aren't worth it. Point #2--for people who are building a 10k, 25k, 50k, 100k home theater, they arent going to hook everything together with a $8 cable. In the grand scheme of things, a $75 or $150 cable is pretty cheap. Looking forward to more content!
If it's analog (including speaker wire on modern digital AVRs), an audiophile MIGHT be able to tell the difference between cheap & expensive cables. Nearly everything else is now digital; as long as the next device receives it accurately it will be perfect.
Thanks for clearing up an usage of length and Gbps requirements.
Thanks man! Need to run 40ft...now I know what I need!!
Thanks for the info. For me, the reason to spend a few dollars more and get HDMI 2.1 is so I donât have to buy new cables as I upgrade my equipment. The difference in price is minuscule. Especially if you are running them through the walls. I have an old TV but just got a Sonos Arc. For various reasons I need some new cables. My TV is too old for ARC but the Sonos sound bar is capable of eARC. Spending a few dollars more and getting 2.1 means I donât have to buy new cables later when I upgrade my TV.
I am currently using cheap ten yr old HDMI cables on my modern TV and they perform great.
Bought that monoprice cable back in February. Good choice it seems!
One of only 2 presenters of HDMI capabilities (of a Half Dozen I Watched) that actually has his head Screwed On. Excellent presentation Technically, And Excellent Speaking - Articulation and Cadence. Good Job..............
Great video! Thank you for unpacking HDMI !!
His videos are the only ones that answer my questions
I have always been an early adopter so this is very helpful, I appreciate it! I just bought the Sony X900H with eventual hdmi 2.1 support and hope to preorder the PS5. Looking forward to next gen!
Great job on talking about cables!
Great vid; very helpful. Thanks. Definitely going to subscribe.
Not sure if you read these comments or not but Ill take a chance.
I enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from you over these past 6 months.
I am very active on reddit and I enjoy helping others when it comes to my experience with 4k tvs.
In one board I was twice banned for either linking one of your videos or once just for mentioning the video.
I dont like bullies.
So I decided to start a new sub where people who want to discuss 4k tvs can do that and share links to video content like yours that will help others or at the very least give them another thing to think about as they ponder which tv is best for them.
I limit the videos I source and link too, to only 4 or 5 content creators, you, HDTVTest, Digital Trends, Rtings, and randomly here or there maybe one or two others.
I wont advertise or link the sub here as I am not trying to spam you and the fact is I only set it up the other day and have only 1 member so far.
I have a lot of work to do to hopefully build it up with good information and attract people to it and build a reputation as a great place to come for good information with a friendly vibe and no censorship over sharing videos from youtube that are helpful when discussing 4k tvs.
I love talking tech, learning new things, seeing what the industry does as a whole and its response to changes that come and go, I just really enjoy it and am an avid viewer of this type of content.
Is it alright with you that I share your videos and reference your work in my reddit sub?
I make and read comments on these videos as well, but I think over time they stop getting any attention or replies and I think the forum is a better place to archive some of this stuff for folks that come around looking for information and have questions months after the videos are made.
As questions pop up on Reddit I often will refer to a video you made several months or weeks earlier and it creates a new discussion on the same topic with people who werent aware of your channel or the video before hearing it in the forum.
I hope that you dont mind my sharing your videos and content and I hope that I can help others along the way who are just learning some of this stuff while trying to make an expensive purchase for their next tv.
I love my Monoprice cables as well, I've been buying from them for years đ
They aren't even certified as 2.1 48 gbps. Which means they arent
@@ghostface1621 which ones are them
@@ghostface1621 they might be referring to 2.0
Monoprice AND Cable Matters work great! HDMI 2.1 cost is not much if any more than HDMI 2.0; for me Iâd buy the HDMI 2.1 just future proof buy one and done.
The HDMI 2.1 cable is not that much more expensive. If you have X900h or you plan to upgrade, you might as well buy the better cable.
thank you for being an awesome source of information. you are very informative, but also treat your audience with respect, and as you relay the information, you are slow enough pace, so that people understand rather than talking really fast and we can't keep up or comprehend . thank you.. again
I've been a fan of the Secur-O-Max Braided HDMI 1.4b, 2.0 and I recently purchased the 2.1 version for my new LG E9.
How are you a fan of a cable lol
There is no such thing as a 1.4 or 2.1 cable lmfao the ""1.4 cable"" would run any 2.1 HDMI lol
Bought 5 hdmi 48gb cables, 3 just flat out didnât work, one would work randomly but almost always cuts out,finally ponied up for an audioquest cable and havenât had a problem sinceâŠ.I honestly never believed that paying that much made sense until I had to and now when it comes to my high end toys I will always buy them. Setup is lg cx, Ps5, Xbox series x, and finally bringing in the sound with the lg sn11rg.
Thank you, now I'm just waiting for the shorter 2.1 cables to be in stock.
No such thing as a 2.1 cable. Your current HDMI cable is exactly the same.
Thanks for the clarification about eARC issue with 18 Gbps cables.
As long as the cable is certified "HDMI High Speed with Ethernet" it should work with ARC or eARC. "High Speed" is 18 Gbps; ARC & eARC use the HDMI wires originally intended for Ethernet (a mostly redundant feature when most devices have WiFi).
Wow just dished out $3000 for a Samsung Q800T....And here I am wondering how much Iâm going to have to pay for new 8K hdmi wires. You sir are a godsend and I thank you very much for your input on this topic! Straight forward and Cheap prices for cables that do the job!
Thank You Very much for this info! Great Vid as usual
Nice vid yo:) I've recently upgraded my display to an Optoma Proj, so I'm running hdmi2.0b on Gpu and projector, it needed to be a long cable do i purchased a 10m copper cable well it had handshake issues every time I'd do anything fast, I ended up purchasing a 5m D-link fibre optic hdmi now I have 1080p 120hz HDR no problemo!
Just subbed,really appreciate your efforts on making this videos.
I just wanted to ask what's best HDMI cable for Sony Bravia KD55 XH900 with PS4? Have a nice day!
Thanks man this video really helped me!
I really love your channel and pretty much watch all your content for a long time. But now I have my first question. I am looking to buy HDMI 2.1 kabels for my Ps5 and Series X and would like to know if there is a certain length where latency starts or the signal will get a little bit less powerful. The kabels that came with the ps5 are only 1,5 Meter. I think I need around 3/5 Meters, I play a lot of competition shooters where you want the fastest and best signal going in my LG65GX. Does it matter the length of the kabel?
Thanks and keep up the good work!đ
Very helpful. And also a huge amount of money saved. Thanks!
I have the LG CX and Emotiva XMC 2 and both support 2.1 HDMI so its a no Brainerd for me on which one to get
l have the Xbox one X and have a 2.0 HDIM cable already Very good informative vid on HDIMI cables, job well done!!
I wish you can do a cable comparison with some HDMI cables that will be really cool.
With PlayStation five coming out I was a little wary of this HDMI 2.1, Iâm not upgrading my TV till after Xmas lol - I still got a 2012 4k LCD Samsung - A normal 2.0 cable should be fine I just hope it doesnât make my Ps5 run slower or not enjoy the hell out of the next gen gaming but you definitely helped me out - goin online - to get the same 4k gaming HDMI cable I used for my ps4 - and cancelling The AK 2.1 fancy HDMI cable probably fit in the 2.0 slot anyway Just wanted to make sure I can get the most out of the PS five as possible with what I have tv wise - thank your for clearing that up subbed and will be watching more for sure .
I've got a 3090 and lgcx, I was using a 2.1 zeskit cable before watching this video, and I am definitely a convert to monoprice 2.0, its cheaper and does exactly what I need. I paid a ridiculous amount for my zeskit cable, like 24 bucks or something, im going to see if I can return it. 2.1 is simply not needed right now and is a cash grab. Thank you for this video.
Excellent info Samsung 80a & Yamaha 6a. Where do I run my HDMI cable from avr to which hdmi slot Tv. Listen to lots of Bluetooth & Movies THX 4 ur time
Excellent and detailed explanation. Honest!
You are awesome and very informative my friend. Thank you for the help.
Great vid, love your work
Splendid! Very good and informative information nice one and thank you Stop the FOMO đ UK
Great video FOMO! Thank you Sir!
Hey FOMO, love the video. So what about 1440p gaming 120hz with HDR? Is HDMI 2.0 enough?
Very informative đ subbed đ
Super helpful! Subscribed
Club 3d hdmi 2.1 cables for us here in UK great quality and great value too đ
Club3d is quality guaranteed đ
What I read was, both Audioquest and Club 3D were the only two 2.1 ultra hdmi cables to date with the official cerrification. But Club 3D are readily available online and Much cheaper. Did I hear correctly, about the certifications?
Well it's outputting 4k 120hz from ps5 on my xh90 no issues with hdr on and it's silky đ€
Nice breakdown!!.đ
15 to 20 feet, I like to pay a little more to get active HDMI and get higher gauge for convenience. 28 gauge passive are a little to thick imo. Monoprice dynamic view when they're in stock
Once I had a cable that worked out of the box for my PC and monitor fine, and at some point I started watching some visualization on my screen with fast moving images and the screen went black every time I run it on the desktop. It was not even a game. In games the cable also worked... The cable was made to just "work" until it met something that caused not to work... I got faster cable and no more problems after that.
Very helpful. Thanks.
Funny I came across this video. I asked this question in another one of your videos before doing a search in your channel. I have a question, is the wire, the 2.0 Monoprice better than the standard hdmi cables that come with devices? I ask because I use a very good higher end android box to stream my movies. I currently just use the hdmi cable that came with the device. In my case would this Monoprice hdmi cable make a difference for the better? Thanks, and love your channel.
Hey! Thanks for the awesome video. I bought a Samsung q80t and bought a 5 meter long 48gbps hdmi copper cable. I connected it to my nvidia RTX 3080 and the picture quality is horrible in HDR. With HDR off it gets a bit better but still terrible, blacks are pixelated and washed out and dark scenes are terrible. Would it be my hdmi 2.1 cable causing this because its too long? Thank you :)
Learning so much. Thank you.
Appreciate all the great info you share with us. Have a quick question though. I have a Samsung Q90T plugged to a denon 4700H via an audio quest cinnamon. I got that wire after having a series of issues with eARC. The sound keeps on clipping when watching Netflix. I had a lower tier AV receiver, so I upgraded it, and I tried a bunch of different HDMI cables that claimed to be eARC compatible, but continue having the issue. Any idea why this may be happening? Iâve looked through all the receiverâs settings and the TV settings, but still no luck. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for your tips ! One question regarding HDMI 2.1 cables when using an AV Receiver (new Denon X 3700H that has 8K port as you probably know). I understood that an AV receiver will adapt all connections to the lowest resolution it receives. Does it mean we have to only buy hdmi 2.1 cables for every ports of an AV receiver as far as we have one source that will really run with HDMI 2.1 (PS5 for example) ? I am a bit lost on this point. I will have an LG CX + PC for gaming + PS5 + Denon receiver, do I need to buy as many HDMI 2.1 8K cables so that the Denon does not downscale everything because of one source that would not have HDMI 2.1 8K cable (PC for example) ? thanks for your precious help as well as the quality of your videos !
hi i just got today my Vizio OLED 65 tv can you tell me what hdmi i can used the 8k for my tv experience and for the PS5 coming up grate video keep it up. hope you can point one cable link i will get it today thanx
Hey fomo I forgot to tell you I also need hdr. So let me know what 85â tv I need thanks again Nicky i
And yeah....You just got a new Sub!
Thank you pal for info
I was almost paying for a cable 3m 50ÂŁ because i was thinking, expensive is higher quality but i will try to find something around 15-25ÂŁ 18Gb/s as my laptop and 4k projector only supports hdmi 2.0 and hdcp 2.2
I think it's worth it looking for the premium certified label for HDMI 2.0 cables and ultra certified for HDMI 2.1 when buying HDMI cables. I say this since I've tested plenty of HDMI cables and lot of noname brands aren't able to hit the minimum required 18gbps just for the HDMI 2.0 causing all kinds of annoying drops or other mysterious issues making it tough to troubleshoot bad TV, console, Apple TV, etc.. Quick way to test this is to try enabling or running RGB 4K@60hz since that will hit near the 18gbps limit 4K 60 4:4:4 (no HDR) = 17.82Gbps. Also won't be able to enable HDR in Windows 10 with weaker cables since won't handle higher required bandwidth! Cheaper cables won't be able to do it and I'd return those or get rid of them.
agreed
@@stopthefomo doesn't your audio receiver have a 8K cable test I watched another channel with a 2700h and he did a cable test by plugging the input to the output.
Once he plugged the AK input to the output it did test at 40 GB per second...
Doesn't your 3500 have the same capability?
True, I will continue to buy Audioquest or other renowned brands because experience is experience, isolation is very important and cheaper manufacturers do not have that.
Okay I have the Hisense U8H and I need a longer cable for the arc and EARC port so I can hook up my soundbar
Hi Fomo, how are you doing? Question regarding HDMI 2.1 cable. The brand Belkin a good product to use in this example?
I just uses my PS5 Cable with my new Sony A80J OLED I just picked up. Works Great..
Thank you so much for not only making this video, but also recommending and providing links for the relevant items. If I'm to be completely honest, I thought you might have been sarcastic when you told me "I'll make that video just for you" with how much effort that takes. I'm extremely humbled and thankful. Thank you. I bought 4 2.1 cables you recommended. Last time I checked, HDMI 2.1 cables didn't exist, so thanks for providing relevant links.
Much appreciated!! Looking forward to your future content.
I currently have a 55â 4K HDR LG (UJ6300) and I have the PS5 preordered. Iâve watched your recent videos on what specs to look for in a gaming TV and I plan to buy a new one next year. So as of right now, I donât need HDMI 2.1... however, I can get a big discount on AudioQuest cables, and with my PS5 already preordered and my plans to upgrade my TV in the next 1-2 years, would you recommend just buying the higher end HDMI 2.1 now?
Sorry if I wasn't paying close enough attention but will a 2.0 cable be good enough for EARC to connect my TV to my new Dolby Atmos sound bar and running a next gen console? Was gonna get the 2.1 for the console but not sure if it's better to have both on 2.1.
i use Zeskit Maya 2.1 HDMI Cable. Works amazing.
my old cables (one included with the ps5, and amazon basics etc,) had black screen flickering and drop outs. Zeskit fixed it. 0 dropouts all week
I've been using the stock Series X 2.1 cable on my 4K/120 TV and I've been having the same issues you were experiencing. I'm hoping this Monoprice one he's promoting has the same success as your Zeskit, just ordered it.
@@TheHabitualWordsmith be careful with promotion videos. Not saying itâs a bad cable but heâs definitely pushing his own link. You donât have to overspend but no reason to underspend. Iâm a firm believer in you get what you pay for. I also know Amazon can have QC issues and would rather spend $15 on a future proof 2.1 cable of decent build quality knowing itâs going to last at least a decade⊠as it should. Using cheap subpar materials is a crapshoot for longevity. Again you donât need $100 cable but Iâm a buy once cry once guy. However, I wouldnât spend over $30 on a cable and if Iâm spending $20-$30 itâs because I want a braided cable thatâs fairly flexible because Iâm afraid it could put undo stress (probably not though) on the hdmi port. But something to be said for future proofing because HDMI 2.1 is good enough
@@greg6162 I appreciate the advice. I ended up going with a different cord that I looked into and I haven't really had any further drop out image issues, save for once in a blue, and I'm chalking that up to running 120hz in Destiny 2 PVP, which is notoriously bad for that and usually the only place the drop out happens.
Very helpful!
Monoprice makes you feel good because you didn't get ripped off. I have used them for years. Never has one not worked of failed. 2 PC's, 1 PS4, 1PS4 Pro, and 2 TV's in my house all have Monoprice HDMI 2.0 cables on them.
This was really helpful thx
Great video. Sensible advice for selecting HDMI cables without over paying.
Need a h p
Iv just ordered the Q95T, so will need the second wire. Canât wait. The CX isnât good for bright rooms which I have, plus burn in and also only transmit up to 40gb. The Q95T has a lot higher contrast and is brighter, apart from darker blacks in the OLED. Samsung is the winner for me.
8K HDMI Cable 10ft, BIFALE HDMI Cable 2.1
is the one i like to know about .

Good info! Thanks
Hi FOMO! I'm new in to 4K TV . I bought a Sony A80J 77inch wbich will be deliver on 1st week of Auvust and I'will use it mostly for watching 4k blu ray movies using Panasonic UB 820 .Which cable do you recommend to use. I'm confused which one to get. I also owned a Marantz AV7705 .processor which ony have arc connection and I believe it's only a 2.0. Please help .Thank you in advance!
Very helpful, Thank you
StopTheFomo, I intend to upgrade soundbar to LGsn11rg eARC dolby atmos/dts-x 4k pass through capable with the Panasonic HZ2000 oled tv eARC filmmaker mode dolby vision IQ Netflix calibrated professional panel featured, not a gamer at all but is it better to get a 48gbs with ethernet 2.1 cable or will a lower 2.0 still be able to handle above signals/data? Thank you for your speedy reply
Thanks for taking the time, just purchased a 3 pack of the Monoprice HDMI 2.1 cables :-) Also, just ordered the OLED65CXPUA today based on your recommendations for the PS5/XSX. Really appreciate your knowledge, thanks again!
Just watch out for games that display a hud for A long time thatâs static unless you want burn in. Iâd be very careful. Iâm going to buy a micro led most likely in 2 years.
great video , one question though i'm planning on getting the LG C9 and the series x this year which cable would be good for me to get ?
Just get the Monoprice HDMI 2.1 certified cables he mentioned and you'll be good.
I've been waiting for a video like this. And best buy said July is when they should be getting them
Look for Ultra High Speed certified cables. They are the only ones guaranteed to support 48 Gbps.
@@sleepinglama14 yeah that's what they were saying. I'm like where's AudioQuest at
@@reggiemurphy7028 well, seeing as though there are no HDMI 2.1 sources available to the public, I'm not surprised there are no Ultra High Speed certified cables available from them at the moment. It's certainly possible their current cables will pass the certification, but it would take them a bit to go through the process and change their packaging to show it.
@@sleepinglama14 you know that actually makes complete sense. I didn't even think about it that way. Other than the new Denon receivers.
@@reggiemurphy7028 We saw HDMI 2.1 certifications for hardware as early as 2019 in the LG C9 so that isn't a surprise. Manufacturers had to get their hands on 2.1 chipsets first which makes that certification process easier.
Thank you for such true explanation.
Great Video thank you for your time
I just wanted to thank this guy. I just got a "new" Q70r and saw this video yesterday. And realized that my sound bar and PS4 are hooked up to old pre-4K era HDMI cables. I ordered the Monoprice 4K cables and ordered the 6ft cables for $6-7 each. So i got the two and literally like an hour before my shipment came in today, the PS4 picture would not show on my Q70. I didn't have to wait long and switched the cables and it was back to normal. Thanks!
