Are these really 8K certified
0:02
HDMI cables? Let's check them out. Dave Taylor here and I've been working with
0:14
HD and 4K and 8K and all these different video signals and video cables forever
0:22
I have boxes of cables. And when I think of HDMI, I think of cables like this
0:27
They are big and fat and chunky and they're hard to work with, and they're really expensive
0:33
And you know what? They're not necessarily the only game in town
0:38
Now, a lot of times you want to have a very short cable
0:42
but you still want it to be as fast and clean as possible. You don't want it to pick up noise
0:47
You don't want glitches. You don't want the image to look dull or have artifacting on the edges or something
0:54
Enter Roy Pro. These are the Roy Pro certified 8. ultra-thin HDMI cables in 1.5 feet and 3 feet the cable itself is 3 millimeters in diameter it is insanely small and it is fully certified
1:15
for what they call HTML 2.1b which means it can take up to
1:20
48 gigabits per second which is a full 8k signal at 60 Hertz or the more popular new one that that coming out is 4K at 120 hertz That a good gamer one because they so fast a refresh that you don get any like
1:38
jagging or anything when things are happening on screen. It's really what you want
1:43
And it's this small. So let me show you these closeups because it's incredible that they've managed to actually
1:50
create cables that are this small. I mean, it's almost like they had some voodoo involved here or something
1:56
something, but it doesn't make sense to me how this works and how there's no noise and they
2:01
don't need to have tons of shielding because I'm used to this cable. And look at that difference
2:08
It is night and day. These cables, they might work. They might be what you get in your like
2:13
Blu-ray player. But seriously, who wants those when you can have something slim and, you know, so
2:20
tight? Now, if you're thinking, okay, yeah, but it's not going to last very long. Well, here's what
2:26
you should know is that Roy Pro offers a lifetime warranty on these cables too and they're very
2:33
affordable so let's hook one up to my Mac and we'll get it on to this 4K monitor and we'll see
2:40
how it works let's get that set up all right have it all hooked up I'm using the three-foot
2:45
Roy Pro cable and we have a 4k video on here coming from my MacBook Pro so let's have a quick watch
2:55
this is the official gameplay trailer for the upcoming video game avowed and you seeing the big bright 4k it is a video with lots of complexity there a lot of action going on a lot of detail and it looks just beautiful on this monitor
3:13
there's no dropped frames no stuttering no noise in the corners or anything and remember it's a
3:20
cable this small it's a cable that's smaller than your USBC charging cable and it's full 8k
3:28
ultra-Hdmi very impressive now let me stop this I'll actually put a link to the
3:36
video in the description because this trailer is fantastic the game looks amazing
3:41
but that's not what we're talking about so we're talking about these cables so
3:47
I've already given you some of the basic specs and we do need to talk about the
3:51
price but before we get there I'm gonna invite you to subscribe to my channel
3:56
go ahead and click on that subscribe button and you can click on the bell icon for notifications
4:03
And if this was helpful, give me a thumbs up. Really appreciate that. Cool
4:07
Now, the Roy Pro Certified 8K Ultra-HdMI cable. This is the 1.5 foot version
4:17
And then the 3-foot version is the one I have hooked up to my Mac right now
4:21
Let's go just a tiny bit further in here. and the 1 foot version is 999 discounted down to 899 with a 10 discount in addition dropping it down to a ridiculous There no reason not to have one of these in your travel bag
4:42
1.5 feet's a bit too short. The three foot version is 1299, down to 1199, minus 10%, putting it at 1079
4:54
All available at Amazon.com. You can get it next day and check this out
4:59
I mean, that is an 8K HDMI cable. I just can't believe they got it down this small
5:05
when so many companies that make HDMI are just like, oh, it needs to be chunkier and chunkier and chunkier and
5:11
then you get better quality video. And it's like, clearly that's not the case
5:17
So definitely this is one to check out. If you travel, this is particularly wonderful
5:22
But if not, it's still great to have these little tiny cables when you're hooking up all your electronics together
5:28
because having overly long cables is just unnecessary and it just, you know, ends up being a big snarl and tangle
5:36
These are a great solution. That's all I got. I'm going back to avowed, hopefully
5:42
So I'll catch you in my next video
