WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.120 it's not very often I feel personally attacked by a product and it's 00:00:04.259 --> 00:00:12.480 especially not often that I really really like it in front of me I have the 00:00:08.820 --> 00:00:15.719 eye neo2 in its retro power colorway and 00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:19.320 perhaps more interestingly the Aya Neo 00:00:15.719 --> 00:00:22.920 geek a slightly downgraded 00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:25.019 cost optimized version that has pretty 00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:29.880 much the same performance just at a lower price and without some of the 00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:36.660 bells and whistles both of these have the new ryzen 6800u CPU from AMD meaning 00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:42.559 that they are Zen 3 with our DNA graphics and both of them have hall 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:48.120 effect joysticks and triggers meaning excellent precision and theoretically 00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:48.120 longevity 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:56.579 we start with the tour do we start with the geek help me out two two I'm gonna 00:00:54.660 --> 00:00:59.520 do the other one oh that's what you get Bella Lance those of you who are 00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:03.719 familiar with this channel will probably be familiar with these handheld gaming 00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:08.939 consoles but for the uninitiated the idea is simple it's a whole PC but the 00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:12.360 size of a game console the steam deck is probably the most famous in this 00:01:10.260 --> 00:01:17.640 category thanks to no small part to its aggressive pricing but it is far from 00:01:14.520 --> 00:01:20.040 the First with companies like GPD and I 00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:25.200 and Neo having hit the market first let's take a look at what we've got in 00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:32.040 terms of accessory package this appears to be a cable 00:01:27.240 --> 00:01:34.200 yes oh wow quite compact power brick 65 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:38.640 Watts not bad the devil is this after you replace the 00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:42.600 SSD by yourself or disassemble the handheld the patch that comes with the 00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:47.159 handheld will be damaged you can use this new one oh that's super cool one of 00:01:45.780 --> 00:01:52.979 the things I noticed on their talking points for the eye neo2 is that it has a 00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:56.340 no screws visible design and I was 00:01:52.979 --> 00:01:58.920 thinking to myself gee that's cool but 00:01:56.340 --> 00:02:02.159 also kind of sucks from a repairability standpoint 00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:06.360 but they apparently include a little patch so you can seal this bad boy back 00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:13.620 up if you want to replace the SSD that's awesome speaking of ssds they're both 00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:17.160 available with the 6800u 16 to 32 gigs 00:02:13.620 --> 00:02:19.440 of RAM and anywhere from 512 gigs to 2 00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:24.840 terabytes of solid-state storage oh that's great look at that they include 00:02:22.020 --> 00:02:29.940 four of them where they go I don't know but they go somewhere presumably on the 00:02:27.480 --> 00:02:33.980 hand oh on the sides cool so they include enough for you to take it apart 00:02:31.379 --> 00:02:38.940 and put it back together twice I am liking this black colorway a lot more 00:02:36.900 --> 00:02:41.940 than I thought I would I figured it would be boring but it's instead it's 00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:51.120 just kind of stealthy it's clean oh no way 00:02:46.500 --> 00:02:53.160 no way RGB lit joysticks this is the 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:57.840 geek and it's still got the RGB joysticks love it I've talked a fair bit 00:02:56.040 --> 00:03:03.120 about the similarities between these devices but I haven't yet talked about 00:02:59.940 --> 00:03:05.340 the differences and the screen is a big 00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:09.420 one first of all its fingerprint sensor is a little bit more advanced in that 00:03:07.260 --> 00:03:13.500 you can just press it once it'll cast your fingerprint and use it for Windows 00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:17.280 hello login not the case on the ionio geek the Ionia 2 will also store 00:03:15.720 --> 00:03:22.260 multiple fingerprints so you can use it for multi-user Authentication 00:03:19.440 --> 00:03:27.000 the other big one is the screen while both of them have a peak brightness of 00:03:23.940 --> 00:03:31.140 400 nits the ineo 2 runs at a resolution 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:34.560 of 1920x1200 while the ioneo geek runs 00:03:31.140 --> 00:03:35.900 at a mirror I believe it's 1280x800 let 00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:42.480 me just double uh okay I'm confused now there's two 00:03:39.780 --> 00:03:48.659 versions of the geek okay well we evidently got the 1920x1200 version 00:03:45.659 --> 00:03:50.640 this is also definitely not as bright 00:03:48.659 --> 00:03:57.180 because it says on the spec sheet that they are definitely as bright 00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:59.099 it doesn't look that far off oh 00:03:57.180 --> 00:04:03.120 I was off axis yeah that's probably about the same I 00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:07.500 will say that white point is quite different between them you can even tell 00:04:04.620 --> 00:04:11.040 on camera this one's quite a bit warmer and this is quite a bit cooler that 00:04:09.720 --> 00:04:16.560 could just be a setting though let me see they both use ion EOS is space 00:04:14.340 --> 00:04:21.780 utility so you can use this to configure the TDP of your processor as well as 00:04:19.260 --> 00:04:28.259 calibrate your joysticks monitor CPU and GPU usage you can even use it as a game 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:30.720 library because you don't have Steam 00:04:28.259 --> 00:04:35.040 regardless of the screen resolution the size is different between the two the 00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:41.820 eye and neo2 has what they call a bezel-less display and it's got this 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:45.120 single surface sheet of glass across the 00:04:41.820 --> 00:04:48.780 entire front with no seam at all 00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:51.960 oh that actually looks really good 00:04:48.780 --> 00:04:56.220 the geek has a more conventional bezeled 00:04:51.960 --> 00:04:58.800 and and ridged top surface oh 00:04:56.220 --> 00:05:04.620 okay that's kind of attractive no the screen size is the same it's just 00:05:01.860 --> 00:05:08.400 the bezel-less look man that looks incredible doesn't it no real 00:05:06.660 --> 00:05:13.500 differences in the back of the body but the weight is slightly different the 00:05:09.900 --> 00:05:16.500 ineo 2 is about 20 grams heavier and the 00:05:13.500 --> 00:05:18.960 ino2 contains two gyroscopes one in the 00:05:16.500 --> 00:05:24.180 body one in the handle while the regular geek only has a gyroscope in the body so 00:05:21.660 --> 00:05:27.300 if you like to fine tune your aim with the gyroscope so you do your course 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:31.259 adjustments with the joystick and then fine-tuning with the gyroscope you might 00:05:29.280 --> 00:05:35.580 find that the Inu 2 will be slightly more accurate the other thing is the 00:05:32.940 --> 00:05:41.460 vibration motor apparently the ineo 2 uses the same linear vibration motor as 00:05:37.979 --> 00:05:44.220 the Nintendo switch I am surprised they 00:05:41.460 --> 00:05:49.979 were able to actually Market it this way I'm sure Nintendo don't take kindly to 00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:55.259 that especially given how many people have taken to pirating Nintendo switch 00:05:52.440 --> 00:06:00.180 games on these handheld consoles but what are they gonna do about it I 00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:03.900 guess oh now seems like a good time to take a bit of a tour of the outside 00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:09.600 we've got our volume control here which is too loud right now dual USB type C's 00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:13.740 at the top and another at the bottom I love this one of the top ones and the 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:19.440 bottom one those are both full-fledged USB 4 with apparently support for egpu 00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:23.039 in spite of the fact that AMD I don't think has sought or at least not 00:06:21.539 --> 00:06:30.180 achieved any sort of Thunderbolt certification so your mileage may vary on that one and 00:06:27.539 --> 00:06:33.060 then the third one is data only you've also got your standard left and right 00:06:31.860 --> 00:06:39.300 triggers they're quite deep those should give you a great degree of control shoulder 00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:44.160 buttons and this is interesting a total of three programmable buttons that can 00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:50.639 be configured with a total of five functions so you've got your LC and your 00:06:47.100 --> 00:06:52.020 RC nothing on the back no paddles or 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:57.060 anything like that like we've seen with the Xbox Elite controller scuff 00:06:54.180 --> 00:07:02.100 controllers and the like but there is a third configurable controller uh yes 00:06:58.860 --> 00:07:03.660 there it is right here next to the Aya 00:07:02.100 --> 00:07:12.840 button we've also got your start and select or whatever those are called on an Xbox controller oh 00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:14.580 MicroSD slot love to see it that's a 00:07:12.840 --> 00:07:19.259 great way to add another terabyte of storage dual microphones on both stereo 00:07:17.699 --> 00:07:22.880 speakers on both I want to feel these sticks 00:07:24.419 --> 00:07:30.919 what it's not weird overall quality we're going medium 00:07:32.039 --> 00:07:37.440 definitely some audible fan noise though 00:07:35.400 --> 00:07:41.940 that's to be expected running the CPU at 22 Watts oh now seems like as good a 00:07:40.259 --> 00:07:47.160 time as I need to say these things have 50 watt hour batteries in them both of 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:51.840 them they don't specify any kind of expected battery life but I would expect 00:07:49.020 --> 00:07:56.039 them to be pretty close to the GPD Win 4 which has a 46 watt hour battery if I 00:07:53.940 --> 00:07:59.759 recall correctly so that's about two hours I've had to use three to six hours 00:07:57.599 --> 00:08:05.039 of moderate use and up to 10 hours of light use see no reason why they'd be 00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:12.300 too dissimilar to that those are nice vibration Motors not bad 00:08:08.880 --> 00:08:14.699 go away go away monster 00:08:12.300 --> 00:08:21.720 I would configure them smaller personally but I believe that is 00:08:17.880 --> 00:08:23.220 something that I can do let's check that 00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:28.259 uh uh Master controller what does that mean 00:08:26.280 --> 00:08:34.260 oh here we go joystick Zone 00:08:31.139 --> 00:08:36.000 what does on and off mean I'm not sure 00:08:34.260 --> 00:08:41.940 quite how it happened but I swear to you I and Neo's English 00:08:38.700 --> 00:08:46.580 translations have gotten worse over time 00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:46.580 what is even happening right now 00:08:46.980 --> 00:08:54.420 hello okay yeah Master Control 00:08:52.680 --> 00:08:58.920 oh my God okay I'm opening it on this one 00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:04.140 oh my God oh that's cool you can switch to like a 00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:07.620 PlayStation slash um Nintendo style 00:09:05.880 --> 00:09:13.080 sorry I just have no idea what's going on right now I just want to reconfigure 00:09:10.740 --> 00:09:19.019 my dead zones is that this we'll just reset what just happened game running 00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:21.720 enjoy your get whoa okay I am finding 00:09:19.019 --> 00:09:26.640 these a little bit sensitive right now man until you've used a hall effect 00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:31.620 joystick you have no idea what you're missing with the crap tier non-hall 00:09:29.459 --> 00:09:35.880 effects joysticks I am finding these a touch sensitive though 00:09:33.660 --> 00:09:39.440 okay I'm setting joystick Zone to off and I'm gonna see if that helps 00:09:40.019 --> 00:09:45.959 um I don't know what that did 00:09:43.380 --> 00:09:49.019 I seem to be happier can we take a moment to talk about the fact that this 00:09:47.220 --> 00:09:55.820 is do maternal running at greater than 1080p resolution solid 60fps medium 00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.820 settings 00:09:56.820 --> 00:10:05.580 like AMD could you be slightly less cool 00:10:01.820 --> 00:10:07.560 6800u is an absolutely incredible SOC 00:10:05.580 --> 00:10:12.899 yeah it's a lot more expensive than a steam deck this thing but it also 00:10:09.779 --> 00:10:14.640 outperforms it wait joystick zone is on 00:10:12.899 --> 00:10:18.420 again there's no granularity 00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:21.440 it's a hundred percent or 50 percent 00:10:23.100 --> 00:10:31.440 I'm walking but barely 00:10:27.420 --> 00:10:33.660 50 joystick not so good can you even 00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:39.899 tell I'm moving fine I'm turning the Zone off oh 00:10:36.839 --> 00:10:42.779 oh I think the dead zones are gone 00:10:39.899 --> 00:10:49.640 I think that was dead zone settings audio is not bad eh 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:49.640 it's not the steam deck but it's not bad 00:10:49.980 --> 00:10:58.800 multiple Chargers okay our geek apparently geeked out 00:10:55.620 --> 00:11:02.339 and is not working right now 00:10:58.800 --> 00:11:03.600 again reminder these are pre-production 00:11:02.339 --> 00:11:08.940 it happens all right our sponsor dbrand 00:11:06.839 --> 00:11:13.440 it looks like my car is back from The Wrap Shop but unfortunately it's not a 00:11:11.760 --> 00:11:17.820 typical Wrap Shop does anyone want to see what dbrand did 00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:23.940 to my car oh yeah I saw it already you saw it already that's not a good sign 00:11:21.300 --> 00:11:29.000 never mind I'm just gonna oh my God 00:11:25.800 --> 00:11:29.000 have you seen it yet no 00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:38.880 oh my God that's so sick 00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:43.260 I thought it was going to be a lot darker I haven't actually 00:11:43.260 --> 00:11:48.740 oh they did a pretty good job 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:58.620 oh so you're just reviewing the wrap job right now I'm still just 00:11:54.300 --> 00:12:00.300 I would have liked to see that I mean 00:11:58.620 --> 00:12:03.779 I actually really liked the factory color on this 00:12:01.800 --> 00:12:07.860 oh no this is why hold on are you taking the piss 00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:11.579 no this looks sick look at this it's all rainbowy there this will be so easy to 00:12:10.140 --> 00:12:14.160 find in a parking lot you don't have to look for some stupid bike car like 00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:20.150 everything Alex oh my God have you seen it from this 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:29.339 side oh it's so shiny this is gonna be a 00:12:25.380 --> 00:12:33.480 distraction I'm gonna get no leeway from 00:12:29.339 --> 00:12:36.779 the cops whatsoever gee dbrand 00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:39.480 thanks in small doses to be clear 00:12:36.779 --> 00:12:43.980 war zone kind of cool this is a lot of War zones I mean I'm 00:12:42.060 --> 00:12:47.000 happy to have my car backed let's see if I can still lock it 00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:51.079 that's a problem 00:12:51.540 --> 00:12:57.139 nope oh man I don't have the purple yeah 00:12:55.380 --> 00:13:01.519 but I think it's kind of badass yeah 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:08.820 all right I guess we're focused on the ineo 2 Forza Horizon 5. let's go let's 00:13:07.019 --> 00:13:14.040 ooh how fast the Wi-Fi oh it's Wi-Fi six hey I can mention some other stuff right 00:13:11.700 --> 00:13:21.060 now there's a headphone jack yeah we didn't mention that cool the ineo 2 00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:23.820 comes with sound tap Magic which uses 00:13:21.060 --> 00:13:27.180 speaker output to translate to vibration output and games that don't support 00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:32.160 vibration I can't say I would ever use that but hey there you go apparently 00:13:29.820 --> 00:13:37.980 also includes AI subtitle translation if you watch a lot of anime on your on your 00:13:34.980 --> 00:13:41.040 handheld small strategy window and FPS 00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:44.519 Thunder are also included it includes 00:13:41.040 --> 00:13:46.560 the type C to USB a adapter though 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:50.040 that's useful you know what I'm sure the audience in China is going to be like 00:13:47.940 --> 00:13:54.180 whoa that's like great software I use all the time or something it's it's all 00:13:51.899 --> 00:13:59.040 stuff I've never even heard of though we definitely need to talk about the design 00:13:55.980 --> 00:14:02.339 though okay the ergonomics were inspired 00:13:59.040 --> 00:14:05.220 by the baby sleeping position so it's a 00:14:02.339 --> 00:14:09.060 baby sleeping position grip design like we would call that fetal position you 00:14:07.500 --> 00:14:13.380 know where you kind of you're kind of spooning around it the state of the baby 00:14:11.579 --> 00:14:16.920 in the mother's body is natural and comfortable says ieneo they draw 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:19.980 original and pure inspiration from it you know what 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.920 forts is ready why don't we just play video games to stop talking about all 00:14:21.779 --> 00:14:29.760 this OS here says Windows 11 or ieneo Os are 00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:34.380 they working on a Linux something something a la Steam OS I find it hard 00:14:32.940 --> 00:14:37.920 to believe that if they're having this much trouble with configuring the 00:14:36.660 --> 00:14:41.300 joysticks that they're going to be building a whole OS but 00:14:42.839 --> 00:14:50.160 okay apparently they have a Linux OS coming 22 Watts 00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:56.160 it's a lot of airflow you know like she really pushes it's a little bit warm in 00:14:53.880 --> 00:15:02.360 the very sort of recessed part of the baby sleeping position here 00:14:58.680 --> 00:15:02.360 overall not bad though 00:15:02.760 --> 00:15:09.060 the warmest part is like right along the back right here where you wouldn't 00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:12.560 really need to be touching also right at the exhaust oh probably shouldn't do 00:15:10.380 --> 00:15:12.560 that 00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:27.660 those are loudspeakers actually pretty impressed 00:15:25.199 --> 00:15:33.540 now as someone who only really uses my triggers in racing games to uh push down 00:15:30.660 --> 00:15:37.860 all the way I can't say I'd be the best judge of the fine control that a hall 00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:46.260 effect sensor trigger is going to give you but it definitely feels 00:15:42.959 --> 00:15:48.839 really good actually 00:15:46.260 --> 00:15:54.779 the steering too now that I've got those dead zones turned off I think 00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:56.339 that is extremely fine 00:15:54.779 --> 00:16:01.980 okay I am liking this 00:15:59.339 --> 00:16:07.860 can we just take a minute again to appreciate that this thing is running 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:10.680 Forza Horizon 5 okay 1920 by 1200 00:16:07.860 --> 00:16:15.060 targeting 60 FPS okay it's that load man this is a good 00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:20.779 looking game even a low good gravy I mean on a screen this size though you 00:16:16.620 --> 00:16:20.779 don't need to crank the details like it 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:29.880 not quiet though can you see it blowing on my hair this fan freaking moves 00:16:27.540 --> 00:16:33.180 I'd recommend low definitely seeing a little bit of 00:16:31.380 --> 00:16:36.360 stuttering there by the way the vibration is configurable you can 00:16:34.680 --> 00:16:40.860 probably hear the vibration 00:16:40.860 --> 00:16:46.139 it's on medium right now you can turn it up to higher you can turn it down to low 00:16:44.100 --> 00:16:50.660 depending on what your preference is again it's worth noting that the geek 00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:55.259 assuming yours works will also perform identically to the two it's just those 00:16:53.100 --> 00:16:59.959 bells and whistles and some of the included software that's different 00:16:57.180 --> 00:17:06.000 the included joystick to Mouse controls uh work this is a problem I've had a lot 00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:10.799 when you're interacting with certain elements in Windows it has partial 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:14.220 controller support so you would click the Windows menu and you'd go up here 00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:18.839 and then it would start using the joystick to move between these icons 00:17:16.199 --> 00:17:25.740 while also moving the cursor around it looks like they've solved that 00:17:22.140 --> 00:17:29.040 that is very good to see love to see 00:17:25.740 --> 00:17:30.960 that then we jump in game oh oh okay oh 00:17:29.040 --> 00:17:37.100 there's a oh oh cool there's a shortcut to the proper on-screen keyboard now too 00:17:33.780 --> 00:17:37.100 really nice to see 00:17:37.919 --> 00:17:45.059 wow that was that was some loud vibration there 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:49.820 I think I would turn the vibration down a little you know 00:17:47.100 --> 00:17:55.799 yeah it's that's very obnoxious actually pricing wise for the 150 difference 00:17:52.700 --> 00:17:57.900 given the same performance it's tough to 00:17:55.799 --> 00:18:01.500 say that the two is worth it over the geek but then again by the time you're 00:17:59.940 --> 00:18:08.340 spending almost a thousand dollars on a handheld if you go for the one with the 00:18:04.500 --> 00:18:12.360 bezel-less screen and the overall nicer 00:18:08.340 --> 00:18:13.559 package oh that's tough geek 1200p would 00:18:12.360 --> 00:18:16.919 probably be the way that I would go whatever TowerFall is a good game check 00:18:15.419 --> 00:18:21.120 it out if you haven't played it and this is a good Channel check it out and 00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:23.780 subscribe if you haven't subscribed bye
