It’s good to have a couple spare HDMI cables around. My college roommates and I had a habit of playing everything on our TV off of one of our laptops connected via an HDMI cable, so we made good use of these. If you’re putting together a PC with several monitors or if you’re looking to replace an HDMI cables that’s gone bad or missing for your Xbox or PS5, take a look at this limited time Amazon deal. The Anker HDMI 2.1 cable in three different sizes has gone on sale for as much as 14% off. You can grab the 3-ft option for $8 (down from $9), the 6-ft option for $9 (down from $10), or the 10-ft option for $12 ( down from $14). That’s not the biggest savings in the world, you know what they say. A penny saved, and what not.
Though, not all HDMI cables are treated the same. If you’re still using that on you bought at the Staples checkout counter over 10 years ago, even though it may look identical, it may not be able to provide the performance that this one can.
Ready for Modern Gaming
This cable is for HDMI 2.1. That means it’s capable of deliver a superior display to keep up with the demands of modern gaming. When displaying in resolutions of 4K, it can run at refresh rates of up to 120Hz. That makes it compatible with this generation of gaming consoles including the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 Pro, letting you achieve the highest level of detail and framerates possible on those machines. If you happened to lose or damage the HDMI cable that shipped with your console, this serves perfectly as a replacement.
This HDMI cable can even boost up to 8K if you have a compatible display. That will limited it down to 60Hz but that’s still more than enough to watch some of the highest definition content out there.
Video and audio transfer over this cable at a high speed compared to some of the older HDSMI cables out there. This will move data from your console or PC to a monitor, TV, or projector at a rate of 48Gbps. This helps ensure clear and consistent content with minimal lag.
You can expect this HDMI cable to last you awhile. Even if you’ll planning to use it on a number of different sources, constantly unplugging and plugging the ends back into laptops or TVs, it should survive for quite some time. The Anker HDMI cable has been tested to withstand more than 1,000 bends over its lifetime, so you won’t be having to replace it anytime soon.
