The Gembird HDMI cable is 1.8 metres long, which console gamers should find handy. Build quality is all right, with a slightly less thick gauge of cable than some other HDMI cables.

The headshell bears similarities to other better known brands.

Quality isn't notably different from a freebie cable, so invest in this only if you've either not got a cable already, or find that you need a longer one.
