A good, flexible/thin 5 metre HDMI cable please.
I have just bought a Belkin 5m HDMI cable for occasional/emergency use with an HDMI equipped laptop. (The cable will spend a lot of time coiled up in a bag in a drawer in between times.)
I tested it this morning and it works fine. However, it is a bit 'chunky'. (Bit of a tight fit when draped behind the bookcase and puts a bit more strain on the HDMI connections because it's quite stiff.) The product photo on amazon led me to think it would be a much thinner/more flexible cable.
Does anyone know of a thinner/more flexible HDMI cable - it must be available in a 5 metre length - from a trusted (but not 'audiophile') brand. Budget up to around £25 (the Belkin cost £15).
Thanks.
Thanks, I'll think about those. Never heard of Lindy, so I might try the Belkin Ultra Thin. (My Belkin is HDMI certified as 'High Speed' but no mention of thinness.)
Or I might just live with the one I bought. (It's only for occasional use and will never be part of the system's permanent wiring).

I have one of these. Does the job and is very slim.

Is yours the Belkin ultra thin?
There's a Lindy ultra slim @£25.99 from Lindy - probably available cheaper elsewhere.
