But what HDMI version is this 5m one? There are quite a lot of 1-star reviews for it. The 4m one in this deal is v1.4.

I'm looking at buying a new 4k tv and chasing it into the wall. Does the hdmi cable really make much difference or would this do the trick ?

I suppose you could always read the spec on the Ebay listing ....
"Supports Resolution up to 4k x 2k"
:neutral_face:
As an aside, if you plan to raggle them into the wall, I'd recommend putting trunking in the wall in case the cable packs in so you can remove and replace. Or, at least, run a spare in at the same time so you have some capacity in the event it fails. And given that you're going for the cheapest HDMI lead on the internet at the moment, that would seem sensible ....
(I have two raggled into my wall. I didn't use trunking. But at least have a spare. With hindsight, I would have used trunking.)

I would'nt use the cheapest hdmi cable you can find but also I would'nt pay more than £5-£8 for a cable. I have found a £5 cable worked for one connection whereas a cheaper one did not. In theory all hdmi cables should work.

Apparently I bought 2 of these 8 years ago. No idea where they are though. :smiley:

Gold plated? More brass than sense you lot.
It's digital, it makes no difference.

Idk if its just me but I prefer gold plated cables, if the price difference is minimal. Just look nicer to me :smiley:

Not a bad price for a 4 meter cable, in case anyone is looking for one.
