What is the difference between a $10 HDMI cable and one that costs $100?

I know that a $100 on could be super long, but that’s not what I’m asking. Why is one 3ft cable $10 and another brand for the same length is $30?

On paper ?

a higher quality cable has better soldering, thicker wires which can support more bandwidth, a mash or metal film coating over the cable bundle to filter out external interference.

in reality ?
as long as its certified for the HDMI revision you want to use it for and your device is less then 5 meters from the TV, you´re wasting money getting anything else then the 10 buck cable as long as its certified for the HDMI version you need.

For longer distances you might need shielded cables.
