Everything you need, and nothing you don't

Reviewed by: Mark
-Thicker wires (AWG) than the the usual [lack of] standard -good quality boots (the rubber potting that's cast-in-place around the wire and connector, no gaps appear on bending, even strong-man style (see milo dot com for huge men bending thick nails) -gold plated parts only you get to see, and only briefly, this is a little bit like chrome plating the inside of your transmission, but hey, when discussing gold, more is more! -minimal no-frills packaging, which to me is a nice gesture, which says, "we didn't spend your money of something you don't want or need" (all you nerds discussing "unboxing experiences" should "unbox" an elegantly packaged gun and shoot yourselves! (I'm kidding of course, please don't harm yourself, I am only trying to spice up a boring review, this is the proverbial "sensible sturdy shoes" of HDMI cables, not a sexy feature anywhere near it, unless we talk about off-label uses that risk a very embarrassing outcome, sometimes involving lemons. LMAO!
-wires don't have that dead-snake limpness of silicone cables (but they don't stubbornly hold creases and come nicely rolled without any stiff bends to massage out, and whatever polymer was used as jacketing material is certainly cheaper and more durable than silicone). For all you hair-splitters stuck on semantics of "weakness" and complain about my inner optimist turning it into a strength, offer John Cage inspired profanity, " - you!"
I put this wire to a good test, it replaced an HDMI cable that worked fine for a few months, up until I switched from a Samsung 43" to a Hisense 50" (part of a video wall of 4 such TV's) the old HDMI wire failed, and caused 2 days of frustrating troubleshooting which offered no clues! I got a black screen. No HDD noises since I only use NVME SSds. The cable needed to be 10" long also, and deliver 60fps at 4K 32 bit extended color gamut mode, which it did without even blinking (the old wire blinked like a club kid exiting the party at dawn). Wires can't blink, you say, well, sure, but they can cause the monitor to go dark for a few frames and then recover, what would you call it?

The iCan wire is nice and solid, you can feel the additional weight and thickness, compared to the typical 30 or even 32 AWG for HDMI (The "D" isn't supposed to be "density), concentrating the signal onto the smallest wires possible is not the objective!

I highly recommend not cheaping out on interconnects, but wait, look at the price! In this case you can cheap out without cheaping out. [price low, quality not low]
