Just a quick heads up for potential buyers saying that you dont need to spend £17. 99 on a HDMI cable. I bought a cable which looks exactly the same as the one Amazon is advertising (from a third party seller here) for less than £2. The picture quality will be the same and cannot improve because of the cable so save some money and find a bargain. As for the cable, its a standard HDMI which supports up to 1080p Works on all TVs with a HDMI port

As demonstrated on the last gadget show, there is no point whatsoever in buying an expensive hdmi cable,so if you want HD for your HD telly and are gonna connect it to a PS3 or any other HDMI source, it really doesnt matter which you use as all it does is send O’s and 1’s digitally. so you either get the picture or not, they are allgoing to be the same quality whichever cable you buy. If this works when you get it and you have payed the minimal amount possible,then i reckon it’s a good purchase for your PS3. Personally, when I bought my PS3 from currys last year, I asked them to throw me one in FOC, and they did cos I bought my telly from there too, which was good, the cable was priced at £10, so not bad for nowt. In summary though, they’re all the same so pay as little as possible for one.

I don’t understand why people seem to think that buying a more expensive HDMI cable will result in better video/audio quality. IT”S DIGITAL! It doesn’t suffer from degradation in that way like an analog cable. In the music industry i see people spending a fortune on expensive digital optical cables thinking they are gonna get cleaner audio. Fact is a better quality digital cable will do 2 things better. 1: it could be more robust, build quality is surely worth money in my opinion. 2: Assuming a better manurfacturing process the cable will be less likely to cause dropouts. As far as quality goes though digital is digital is digital, don’t be fooled by expensive cables unless you want a more robust well made cable.

Its just an HDMI cable
This was included in my PS3 bundle but does exactly the same as any other HDMI cable. It’s digital and there for the signal does not degrade like an analogue signal, it will…

Solid. Great. Recommended
The difference between this and a £15.99 HDMI cable from Hydro Electric is…nothing. This is great, solid design, same quality.

I bought this for my sons playstation and it doesnt work. I may be cheap but that is no good if it doesnt work, it gave us sound but no picture. Suzanne

A very cheap HDMI cable. Be aware that unlike analogue signals, digital signals (such as HDMI) are not affected by the quality of the cabling.

Poor quality cable that does not support full HD
Bought this cable to use with my PS3 on my full HD LCD TV. Unfortunately it does not allow me to connect my PS3 at full HD.

Bargain
Bought a cheap HDMI cable after reading other blogs and there is no difference in the picture quality compared to using a more expensive cable.
