With this product, you’re getting three color-coded HDMI cables (red, yellow, and blue) with full HDMI 2.1 functionality. If you want a performance-facing product at a great price-per-cable, the Cable Matters 8K HDMI 2.1 cable (3-pack) is an easy pick for the top choice. Here are the best HDMI cables available.ĭIY'ers should note, however, that running an HDMI cable through a wall can be a dangerous activity, and most of the products we recommend aren't up to snuff. Most people can just buy our favorite cable, but if you need something special-like extra cable durability-or you don’t need HDMI 2.1 features at all, there are lots of great HDMI cables out there. Fortunately, we’ve found a fully functional HDMI 2.1 cable that serves up serious value: the Cable Matters 8K 3-pack ( available at Amazon). With the advent of HDMI 2.1 features, however, picking the right cable has become a little trickier if you need cutting-edge features like Variable Refresh Rate or you’ve got an ultra-fancy 8K TV.

For a long time, it was easy to spend way too much on an HDMI cable-they all pretty much worked identically for stuff in HD and 4K resolution, so you could reliably grab our best value pick, an AmazonBasics 2-pack ( available at Amazon) and call it a day, even for HDR content.
