Theis cable is of good quality, it's very easy to change the angle. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that it still sticks out quite a long way (from the back of the TV). So you still have to be careful if you're trying to mount your TV against a wall or on a bracket that doesn't give clearance behind the HDMI connectors. It's not easy to work out how much space it saves exactly, somewhere around 30mm maybe, but it does mean that the cable isn't stressed through a tight bend.

I bought this very shortly after getting a new panny plasma tv. I stupidly tried a slightly cheaper but supposedly higher grade much thicker insulated cable first that I picked up from the supermarket (most expensive one they had)and the picture response between the tv and panny blu-ray was shocking. Straight away bought this which arrived very quickly and I was amazed!. I certainly recommend product matching for high end use and will never buy a cheaper HDMI cable again.

Highly recommend, and the elbow joint is very useful for slimming down the depth of cable behind the TV. Although only long enough if the HD box/blu-ray is under/ next to TV. Would need to get a longer one for wall mounting.

FYI: I personally can't believe the basic nickel plated HDMI cables for about 2-3 quid from a supermarket at more than 5 times less than the first cable I tried and threw out would give any decent signal and they would totally undermine any expensive HD equipment. I guess also any AV pro would tell you this anyway!

The perfect solution if using a side entry HDMI socket on the TV and you dont want the cable to show.

Excellent idea
