Lightweight 3m HDMI cable

Can anyone recommend a lightweight 3m HDMI cable?

I've previously bought Amazon Basics and the quality is great, but they're very stiff and weigh a ton.

I'll be using it to connect a laptop to a TV, and the weight of the AB cable is trying to tug the cable out of the sockets, or even the laptop off the table (it's a lightweight chromebook!)

If you know of one that can be delivered with Amazon Prime, that would be perfect :)

    I use a C21207 HDMI lead by Labgear.

    BUT

    I don't think Amazon book shop sells them.
    It may not be much lighter than the one you have.

    The cable quality is primarily dependent on the weight of copper.

    Thanks - but I wouldn't pay £16 for an HDMI cable unless it also did my hoovering for me :)

    I suppose it's the cable flexibility as much as weight I'm concerned about
