What's great about it: Perfect functionality.
What's not so great: -
Absolutely ASTOUNDING video quality going into my 55" LED HD TV (Insignia, ..... excellent!) Once my MacBook Pro resolution was maxed in the control panel, we're talking theater quality playback from streaming video online. AMAZING!!!! It doesn't get any better. If you have a HD TV, & a newer Mac, this is a MUST HAVE piece of equipment!!!

It works just fine. You have to hook speakers or surround sound up to it for sounds. Other than that, perfect.

What's great about it: Easy of use, great price.
It is so nice to plug my Mac into the TV and watch movies, shows, or just have a bigger monitor. This is an excellent product that is incredibly easy to use that was purchased at a great price. Highly recommended. Any Mac users who are looking to hook their computer up to their TV should consider this easy cable. One end connects with the HDMI cable (which goes to the TV) and the other end goes into your Mac. Obviously, it would be easier if the Mac just had an HDMI input but, alas, it does not. Therefore, you need a cable like this one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: does not work
I bought this product to stream video and audio to my HDTV from my Macbook Pro. Audio is not supported, so no need to discuss that. Video was flickering and was not working. not sure if it was a setup issue. ended up buying a belkin product and it works like a champ and supports audio and video and is cheaper.

What's great about it: Easy to use & good results
With our previous TV (Oct. 2008), we could see the computer on the TV through a VGA connection and mini to the laptop. With the newer TV (July 2011), we needed a mini-to-HDMI connection & this Rocketfish adapter is doing a job just fine.

What's great about it: HDMI output connection from your Macbook or Apple computer
What's not so great: Nothing
This device is great. Plug it into your Macbook's standard video out, and it works just like Apple's monitor outputs. Picture quality will depend on the quality of the video that you are playing. Even standard quality videos will look really good.

I bought this to connect my MacBook Pro to my 46" Samsung LED TV. It was very easy to use. You just plug it into your laptop, plug a HDMI cable into it and plug the HDMI cable into your TV. Everything you see on your laptop is now also on your TV.

What's great about it: Plug N Play
Some reviews here claim the audio feature doesn't work. Well, these folks fail to read the product box. It clearly states on back that the device will suppose audio only if your source device allows audio output through the Mini DisplayPort interface (which all MacBook Pros with Thunderbolt do). As a matter of fact, only the MiniPort to HDMI adapter (regardless of product brand) allows for audio transmission. The MiniPort to VGA or DVI adapter does not. Read the product specs.
Finally, this product is an excellent purchase. Just plug it in and voila! The display to my HDTV is excellent! Under the System Displays Pane just select HDMI for audio output and you're set.
Note: You may need an HDMI cable is you don't have one as the cable is not included.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy and does all you could seriously want
What's not so great: A little bulky for some reason.
I just got this cable. Plugged it in. Plugged it into the TV. Everything automatically set itself up. I then went into the settings to the sound hardware of my 13" Macbook Air (summer 2011 model) where I found the HDMI output now available! The sound was outstanding and the video feed was full 1080p on my 44" TV. Isn't this exactly what you want out of this? Remember, to get the sound working, hit your Apple in the upper right of your menu (anywhere, anytime) and go to preferences, sound, output, choose the HDMI, done.
