Pros: - Made of very strong material .
- No interference in a cable-filled area.
- Feels unbreakable.
Cons: None, but as stated in another review it's pretty stiff so it won't really work if you try and cram the whole thing into a corner.
Other Thoughts: It's hard to believe that this cable only cost $12, HDMI cables are normally way overpriced. I own a $70 HDMI cable (bought it half price, $35 is still alot) and it looks and feels way cheaper than this one.
Bottomline: If you need an HDMI cable, this is a very good choice, especially for the price.
A pretty decent HDMI cable

Pros: Good build quality, at an attractive price too.
Cons: May not be as flexible as some might want it to be but for me the cable is more than adequate.
Other Thoughts: I had an HDMI cable (came free with a Sat decoder) that I used on an upscaling DVD player. The cable was about the same thickness as every other cable (e.g. like the ones with RCA). Basically it felt like a regular cable with HDMI connectors added to either end. Every time my fridge (next room) motor came on my TV wid go blank 4 a few seconds. After replacing it with this DX one I had not a single TV black out!
There are a lot of HDMI cables on DX. I bought this thicker one (as it looked in the photos) as my one experience with a "thinner" cable had been unpleasant. That being said buying this cable yielded a trouble-free experience, and since there are some positive reviews for the cheaper, thinner ones I think the next time I'm looking for a HDMI cable I might just buy one of those ones.
Bottomline: Never had any problems using it so far, a really great HDMI cable.
Decent cable

Pros: -Solid Cable
-Works properly
-Feels and looks nice
Not much else to it, it's a good HDMI cable that carries a signal perfectly
Cons: The only real con was the little metal flanges at the end of the plug covering where the cable goes in don't screw on tightly. But this isn't really a problem because they shouldn't come unscrewed in regular use and even if they do they screw back on easily.
Other Thoughts: Great cable at a decent price. Not the cheapest on DX, but looks a lot sturdier (and nicer) than the cheaper ones.
Bottomline: Buy it if you need a HDMI cable.
The best cable around at a dirt cheap price.

Pros: Aestethically pleasing, feels solid and sturdy. Gold plated and tight connectors. Good interference protection. Long enough. Terribly cheap and basically the same HQ cable that is sold for 3x the price in Europe.
Cons: Packaging looks a bit cheap. Otherwise absolutely none.
Other Thoughts: I previously used a cheap DVI cable with which the image "jumped" when I turned my amplifier on. With this cable the problem disappeared.
Bottomline: This is the best cable around for a very reasonable price.
