welcome to an onlocation unboxing of the
funk surface 1030 XL we're actually in the middle of our uh production set for
our video about the making of the funk
M3s gaming mouse so we uh we figured
since we have a few M3 s's cuz we have to do some funky stuff with them um we
can unbox that later but this one since we got to open it we might as well unbox
it now so this is if you guys don't know Funk it's probably because you haven't
been on the gaming scene for long enough because Funk mouse pads have been around
for a super long time I have an ancient Funk pad that's still running on my
in-law's computer still tracks perfectly like the day I got it it's a soft one
anyway this is the original dual-sided Mouse surface concept yes funk's claim
to fame was their old dual sided mouse pads where they had a smooth side on one
side and a rough side on the other side so if you like it smooth then you can do
that if you like it rough then you can do that too large tracking area large
rubber feet this is the XL version so there is uh a large version so this is
this is extra large as you can tell from the box it's quite large it's about one
Linus body width in height and then
about um I don't know two whatever of
those is in length so let's not worry too much about that let's open this bad
boy up all started in 1999 in sunny California bunch of passionate Gamers
and friends got fed up with computer gear not cutting it after the successful
launch of the surface 1030 the archetype was introduced to the market so there's
a little bit of history of funk and don't be fooled into thinking
performance can be heightened by adding more features rather than perfecting core functions so here is a piece of
foam over top of it that protects the mouse pad itself here
is oh okay get a funk Insider account you can be a beta tester and all kinds
of interesting neat stuff like that cool here's a little pull tab so you can open
it up get the mouse pad it's nice little velvety thing that it sits on the
packaging is outstanding this is some of the best packaging I think I've seen on
a mouse pad so the original dual-sided mouse pad large rubber feet on the
bottom check that out o those are nice those are like super like okay it's hard
to make my point of how grippy they are but why don't I just try putting it on a
surface and then moving a mouse on top of it and showing that it's not going to
move at all so there I think I've made my point now
and then this must be the uh the Rough
Side so it's got a bit of a texture to
it okay and then the smooth
side see you can hear that's a very
different noise so um there's two little tabs here so that you can pop out the
mouse pad and change it on a whim so you just pop it out from there and I think
that's pretty much everything else there is to say about it it has a 2-year
warranty and thank you for checking out my
