The item from buyincoin is ultra thin HDMI cable.
Whereas the 5m @ $12.95 is OD7.2 Cable, they are two different quality.PS. I would interest to know the comments from ozbargainer who bought buyincoin's 5m deals. If the quality is fine, I can bring-in a better deal for the same quality cable.
DO you mean physical quality or picture quality. Because the latter is not affected in HDMI cables as it's a digital signal.
Considering the physical quality, the longer thin cable (e.g. 5m, 10m) is easier to broke the wires inside.
I'm with the OP on this one. I'd rather pay for better quality, even if it is likely to remain untouched behind the TV. Peace of mind.
This is a joke right?
Can you actually think of a time you've broken an audio-visual cable internally by bending it?
I've had component cables, 10 gauge audio wires, even delicate, thin, little Toslink cables squashed underneath the legs of entertainment units and tables for years, tangled in snake-pits behind my home theatre devices and never once they did break.
What Danilochan is describing sounds like it was taken from the Monster Cable School of Marketing. "Introducing new Earthquake-resistant HDMI cables that survive Mack Trucks being driven over them."
Seriously… it's a cable. It's only two purposes in life are to collect dust and transmit signals. They do not need to be bullet-proof. These are all Chinese made by the same workers in the same industrial parks. There's no difference.
But hey, if you want to take people's words at face value, who have it in their interest to make a sale regardless of the truth… be my guest.
I join my cables together, and usually use stuff like this as patch cables, so its pretty critical the cables are decent quality… when I use a substandard cable, the picture goes blocky and looses signal, (just like digital TV does in low signal.
so yeah cable quality is pretty important.
WRONG. This is a myth. Cable quality does affect HDMI signal but not over a short length of cable such as 5m. It is not a simple case of having picture / losing picture, you can even get strange artifacts such as green speckling (I speak from personal experience but you will find it if you bother to research http://www.google.com.au/search?q=hdmi+green+speckling&ie=ut… )
Try doing long distance cable runs and you will see that higher quality cables are in fact a necessity for when you start doing fancy things.
Up to 5m though, use the cheapest cable you can get.
Up to 5m though, use the cheapest cable you can get.
Try up to 15m.
Thank you for just confirming what I already established.
How would you know it's "ultra-thin" since you haven't seen their product before and nowhere on their site does it state that the cable is "ultra-thin"?
There's a dozen pictures of the cable on that listing: http://www.buyincoins.com/item/16849.html
Looks absolutely standard in terms of build-quality and physical dimensions:
http://www.buyincoins.com/images/review/2012-07-15/134229362…Yes, it's standard cable quality when using OD4.2
http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_408044_OD_42_50CM_HDMI_Ca…and compare with Premium cable quality the build-quality and physical is different

Thanks for the heads up!!
Excellent, been waiting for some 50cm cables. Thanks!
/edit: awwww, can only buy two of them during the promotion. I'd like at least 5.
Cheers, bought a 50cm cable as my brother was needing one. For $1.50 can't complain!
You can get double that length for $1.82 delivered from Shopping Square ebay -
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1M-HDMI-Cable-v1-4-High-Speed-Ful…2 metres is $2.24 delivered from Shopping Square ebay -
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2M-HDMI-Cable-v1-4-High-Speed-Ful…I could yes, but I needed smaller than 1m cables, as it basically goes from his Roku to the receiver directly under it. 50cm is perfect for that without having lots of cable just shoved at the back of the cabinet.
Different strokes for different folks :-)
Armband is good.. I've been saying for the wife to get one on her run..
Thanks so much OP!! Didn't buy the HDMI cable but got the iPhone running armband, absolute bargain for $2.00 :)
You should probably mention that it's a 50cm HDMI cable.
If you want something reasonable like a 2m one, it's $1.49 and the 5m is $12.95 (pretty ridiculous compared to the BuyInCoins deal, which is still live: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/110669)
