Never mind !
I doubt any response from me concerning over 10 yrs. of zero failures purchasing and using multiple brand HDMI cables in 7 rooms of my house`s A/V/security camera systems is worth the effort !

I will say this, if the HDMI cable in use needs to make a sharp turn exiting the TV or source`s jack in it`s installation, there are available to purchase right/left or up down orientation male to female HDMI connection adaptors" to prevent the undesired sharp bending (minimum allowed radius bend) that is a no-no for those multipin usually molded connector end HF high speed data cables for video/audio !
 
I bought a high-spec HDMI cable for my projector. It is a long run and had to be snaked through the ceiling. I have no interest in ever replacing it.
 
I had a short HDMI cable go bad on my computer. The one I have now (a premium brand) has a connector issue. Sometimes the screen will just be green I rattle the wire and it works fine. As with all things I think its just bad build quality. For most brands cheap to expensive they are made in one a handful of places. The quality you get is the quality of the place doing the manufacturing not the name on the box.
