The cable is a viable replacement for my defective original cables. It is much more flexible, but makes me a not so robust impression as the Originalkabel.Da it works well, I am satisfied. The price, however, I consider to be too high. I do not have long-term experience with this cable, but do not expect that it holds "forever". I already have an original replacement cables in use, which now also again has a loose connection to other UE headphones. Maybe it's on my little respectful handling of the cable. I would certainly restore me this cable to heard it on the cheaper.
