okay so apple releases the latest macbook pro now
super thin so you're gonna need something to protect its beautifully
finished surface and without any damn ports because you know
whatever yolo so the average person
thinks well gee i guess i'll just get myself
a case okay
so there's your case and i'll get myself a doc so i've got a
bunch of ports
okay whatever anyway the point is
that's thinking inside the box meet
the duck case it's a case
it's a dock
experience MSI's gs63 vr laptop now with
NVIDIA's GeForce gtx 1070 max-q check it
out at the link below so i had never actually heard of this
company before they're sort of
like in india except i don't think they are at all there's really nothing on
here at all which made me think that because these guys are doing a
crowdfunding campaign that they were like an unheard of nobody but then when
i got my shipment it was from somewhere in china that seems to be some kind of
fairly well established electronics manufacturer although maybe
they're like contract manufacturing
oh there we go
that was exhausting all right so inside i actually have no idea if
there are any options or anything like that but it looks like what i've got
is sort of a uh a faux leather kind of uh affair here
there is a magnetic sleeve closing mechanism here
okay look i don't do a lot of videos on laptop cases the only reason i'm doing
this one is because i thought that this whole concept was pretty novel so this
is the beta version we invite you to review this product constructive
feedback will be delivered to our product team
very cool this sticker's ugly you're ugly that's my feedback karen
you can go so let's try it out oh right accessories
so you also get what i hope
is a Thunderbolt cable that would be pretty sick
but it is not labeled actually there's a little bit of paint on here and then
we've got maybe it's a driver cd
oh oh unboxing experience ruined forget it
i'm going back to my trailer
okay i've sorted up my trauma and we're going to open this up
more silver more silver paper quick start guide
first of all let's see you know how well the macbook fits i mean when you're
gonna build a case that is exactly made for one
particular laptop you better get the fit right
wow this thing's probably going to be really expensive just based on like this
really nice closed cell foam in it see that's the kind of stuff where like
you can tell they're going for the premium market that cares more about
having beautiful packaging than about saving a buck
all right in terms of the fit though that's quite nice
there's a little bit of leeway from side to side
okay whoop okay yeah that obviously wasn't gonna go
very well it seems like you're supposed to put your cable right up here i mean maybe
that was in the quick start guide no not in the quick start guide
okay fine i do actually see why they want you uh looking at the instructions
because i thought that this was a simple
like Thunderbolt configuration but it's not
this is a usb type c
but usb dock not a Thunderbolt dock
which makes sense because why would you be powering it when you're out and about
so it's actually got three usb type-c
ports so this one at the back then
you just kind of sit it there on top of the case
so this one at the back plugs into your
dang it into your power port on the laptop
and it's not the world's most elegant solution but like it should be fine
this is what happens when you don't actually use your mac every time you
turn it on it's like
okay so this is interesting now the way
i had thought it would work is that you plug this into the power and you get
power pass through but the laptop actually doesn't charge
while you're plugged in like that so then i thought okay well maybe it's this
one but that's not this is just a regular usb 3.1 port these are 3.0 micro
sd sd HDMI Ethernet so no if you want to
actually charge your device at the same
time you have to plug them both in
but what i don't know is how that affects the functionality of
the dock let's try plugging something in on it
so let's try plugging in networking
hold on yeah you got to plug in on the other
side this is the very definition of jacking
someone's stuff get it because it's john's Ethernet jack
yeah anyway
what if i plug in like a a usb device or something okay this is
bizarre so this is clearly pre-production there are
some tolerance issues with the ports so when this light was red that was bad i
had to wiggle this back one a little bit it turned green and now
check it out so my fatty 32
usb drive shows up the dock appears to be working
but networking still isn't working even though it's gray
another revelation is that with this port re-wiggled yes
the power does pass through so your wall jack powers both the hub and the macbook
hey okay there we go
fantastic so it's got gigabit networking
which is a plus not all docks especially inexpensive
ones have gigabit and uh all that's left now is i guess to
throw on a monitor and make sure the HDMI works okay all right
let's see
boom just like that not bad
so then are we solving an incredibly first world problem here of
you know not wanting to carry around a
slightly bigger case and a dongle like this so this one in
particular has almost exactly the same i
o microsd sd power pass through gigabit
Ethernet three usb threes and HDMI
yes we are but is this actually a pretty cool solution
well if i didn't think so then when they reached out about sending us one
i would have said no forget it that looks stupid
so yeah i like it there you go
