Hey man, I’ve got your cable right here: 10m 5m 3m 2m 1m HDMI 1.4 2.0 2.1 cable male female for Xbox 360 One Series S X PS3 PS4 PS5 Wii U Switch Apple PC iPhone iPad 4K 4:4:4 16:9 1080p 60Hz 120Hz.
There are HDMI cables that are basically HDMI to fiber tranceivers. The HDMI plug draws power from the HDMI port to use active components to convert to a fiber signal.
There are optical HDMI cables with much longer maximum lengths than passive copper cables. I assume the electrical - optical conversion is done in the plug itself.
It’d worse than things like Temu. With that you just know you’re buying cheap knockoffs with let’s say questionable quality. On Amazon, you don’t know what quality you’re getting, for a worse price, and even worse delivery times (my last purchase from Amazon took 2 months to deliver. For a book!).
Amazon has basically become a delivery company with a shop front and no responsibility.
Their selling fees are utterly incomprehensible, but their calculator reckons you’ll get about half the money for a £18 item and about 60% of it for a £45 item.
I feel like for that sort of cut, Amazon should be taking full responsibility for the fire hazard bullshit available from them.
Bought some plant stuff for the wifes bday and the company name on Amazon was XXXtenacion…wtf does that even mean? Why xxx? I don’t know, but there are thousands of these ai generated/poorly translated brandings going on.
I would’ve believed you either way lmao. The amount of weird brand names when I’m looking for something as generic as, say, a HDMI cable, wouldn’t make me surprised if a seller named themselves after XXXTentacion
I prefer fleaBay these days. I mostly know what I’m getting whether it be someone’s personal item or a mass produced product. I feel like I have better control. Not a lot, but more. I also use B&H for tech stuff.

Ah yes, CHORUTY brand, my favorite
“Boss, we have 20 downvotes again!”
“I’m on it, fam.”
I’ve always bought cables from Monoprice first and Amazon second.
Just bought from them for the first time the other day, good all around experience 🙂

Is it fiber or copper? Copper is probably not going to get you that far, but fiber can supposedly still deliver a decent signal at up to 60m.

Amazon, Uber, Deliveroo, etc are just leeches.
Does Temu actually send the items?
In my experience, yes.

…That’s the name of a dead rapper. What the hell?
You are right! I double checked it’s XXXFlower, not the rapper :)

Fun fact: XXXFlower not the rapper is Chance the rapper’s second cousin
