 A good choice that won't break the bank September 18, 2007

This cable is well constructed with a nice, high quality, thick, jacket that usually comes on more expensive cables. It's a great compromise if you don't want to shell out $80 for an overpriced cable without resorting to using a lesser quality cable. I'd reccomend it to anyone.
 Not a good choice for a ps3 cable February 7, 2008

I purchased this cable because it is 8ft and I had a 4ft monster ultra 1000 hdmi cable but was too short. I was able to do a comparison and although the ultra 1000 is expensive it will give you the assurance that it performs to the maximum. This cable however had speckles on the xmedia bar screen whenever there was black and during movie trailers in darker scenes and it made a popping noise when the ps3 was turned off (I believe this was mentioned in another review). I know this because when switching to the expensive cable it had outstanding picture and doesn't miss any details, including dark scenes or black. Maybe it was a defect. but when ordering online it takes too long to replace it and try again with the same one. I would like to think that the expensive cables are overrated but in this case, they clearly won.
 Not good enough March 18, 2008

I bought my PS3 and all the bits to get my GT5 Prologue working on my 1080p tv and was disappointed...
The PS3 was fine playing a Blu-Ray movie, but even the opening credits on Gran Turismo we just breaking up all the time. I did a lot of reading and the whole debate about how a $10 cable will do the same as a $70 on etc... well I ditched this cable for a Monster 1000hdmi and guess what.. now I have flawless audio and display in 1080p with not even a hint of a problem.
If you are having a similar problem, you will have to make up your own mind. I don't think the build quality of this cable is that good and given the movies work and game didn't, I am more like to believe that it just wasn't capable bandwidth wise to do the job.

Although this seems to be a fairly well constructed cable for the price, it does not appear to be 1.3 compliant. Avoid the hype that it says it's for PS3. If your TV requires an HDMI 1.3 compliant cable, you will not get better than 1080i, or in my case, garbled video. Nowhere on the packaging could I find the spec, even on the MFR's web site.
Works perfect, no guess on this one July 16, 2007

Figured if it's made by Sony it should work first try with the PS3, not the cheapest but well worth the quality.
