1 00:00:00,057 --> 00:00:02,807 (paper ruffling) 2 00:00:04,820 --> 00:00:09,850 - dbrand is obviously best known for making colorful stickers for your electronics. 3 00:00:09,850 --> 00:00:14,060 But the problem with stickers, is that it's hard to get them to stick 4 00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:20,740 to irregularly shaped objects, like the PlayStation 5, and, 5 00:00:20,740 --> 00:00:24,600 well eventually, no matter how precision cut they are, 6 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,520 they can tend to have problems. Ah, here's my, 7 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,880 oops, you got a little flappy doodle on my iPhone 12 Pro here. 8 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:38,090 So, new idea. Inside this box is two things. 9 00:00:38,090 --> 00:00:44,650 One, is what they're calling Dark Plates. Replacements for the ugly PlayStation 5 side panels. 10 00:00:44,650 --> 00:00:48,250 And number two, is I'm expecting a bag of money. 11 00:00:48,250 --> 00:00:55,510 Because dbrand sponsored this video, and I did not say how much to pay for the video. 12 00:00:55,510 --> 00:01:00,140 I just said, surprise me. So, I promised that I would unbox 13 00:01:00,140 --> 00:01:03,740 however much they paid for this sponsorship, live. 14 00:01:03,740 --> 00:01:05,513 Live in front of all of you. 15 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,903 So far, there's no bag of money. 16 00:01:10,950 --> 00:01:15,930 We've got some dbrand skins. I don't know what they're for. 17 00:01:15,930 --> 00:01:20,360 Oh, so it's just plates for the sides 18 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:27,603 and they still have skins. All right, cool. And then inside here, we have allegedly, Dark Plates. 19 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,230 I don't hear any bags of money. 20 00:01:33,310 --> 00:01:37,740 Okay. Purchased, delivered, you're welcome. install. 21 00:01:37,740 --> 00:01:42,180 There was only one correct way, dbrand.com/how 22 00:01:42,180 --> 00:01:44,293 Okay, we've got some packing materials. 23 00:01:46,990 --> 00:01:51,010 We've got a piece of plastic. How fun is that? 24 00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:54,480 It looks like they don't wanna get sued quite so bad after all. 25 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,000 So the original PlayStation 5 cover, 26 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,370 has little Xs and circles and triangles, 27 00:02:01,370 --> 00:02:08,080 like little tiny ones. And they've gone and they've put a more dbrand spin on that. 28 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,390 So they've got little radioactive signs and 29 00:02:11,390 --> 00:02:15,630 skull and crossbones and, little robot heads. 30 00:02:15,630 --> 00:02:21,300 Actually, they did a shockingly good job of the detail of this. 31 00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:24,480 No offense, dbrand, you guys always do a shockingly good job. 32 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,830 It's just never ceases to shock me, that's all. 33 00:02:27,690 --> 00:02:33,140 I would say that's pretty mad. The one disappointment I have so far is that 34 00:02:33,140 --> 00:02:35,853 I have yet to locate a bag of money. 35 00:02:36,850 --> 00:02:40,740 dbrand, you know how this influencer thing works? 36 00:02:40,740 --> 00:02:45,230 Okay, so I have the influence, and you have the bags of money. 37 00:02:45,230 --> 00:02:48,406 Maybe it's like one of those drug cars, David. 38 00:02:48,406 --> 00:02:50,663 You gotta, slice it open. 39 00:02:52,210 --> 00:02:55,672 Gold embedded in these, side panels. 40 00:02:55,672 --> 00:02:58,089 (rock music) 41 00:03:00,398 --> 00:03:03,953 I mean, they're clear, but you never know. It could be diamonds inside. 42 00:03:06,970 --> 00:03:10,750 (phone dial tone ringing) 43 00:03:10,750 --> 00:03:13,253 - [Voicemail] Your call has been forwarded to a voicemail. 44 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,240 Your call has been forwarded to a voice. - Oh, you don't dodge my call so easy. 45 00:03:19,610 --> 00:03:23,570 - [Voicemail] Your call has been forwarded to a voicemail service, that has not been initialized 46 00:03:23,570 --> 00:03:26,033 by the customer you are calling. - Wow! 47 00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:31,050 Isn't that amazing? In the time between them 48 00:03:31,050 --> 00:03:35,339 sending this package and me opening it, dbrand went out of business. 49 00:03:35,339 --> 00:03:41,180 (laughter) The robot's voicemail is not even connected. 50 00:03:41,180 --> 00:03:45,820 Well, that's unfortunate. You know what? We're gonna continue the rest of this unboxing, but, 51 00:03:45,820 --> 00:03:50,000 I'm a lot less angry now that I know that they're going through such hard times. 52 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,700 Unfortunately, I guess this also means that you won't actually be able to buy this product. 53 00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:58,160 But, that's okay 'cause at least my PlayStation 5 54 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,593 won't be an ugly white mess. 55 00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:09,440 All right, let's pop this thing off. To remove the stock panels, all you do is pull up, and, 56 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,620 pull up and slide. Man, this thing is so ugly 57 00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:17,493 I think it actually looks better raw dog. Now, let's go ahead and put on the, 58 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,470 what do they call it? Dark Plate? Put on the Dark Plate. 59 00:04:22,470 --> 00:04:27,090 When I first heard about this project, I had kinda thought they were gonna go a different route 60 00:04:27,090 --> 00:04:32,110 and like do a thick plate that actually fills in kind of the weird shape of the PlayStation 5 61 00:04:32,110 --> 00:04:37,620 and makes it more, square. But, with that said, I mean, 62 00:04:37,620 --> 00:04:40,670 I don't know how you would do a mold for something that thick. 63 00:04:40,670 --> 00:04:43,780 So I guess it sort of makes sense that they'd just gone with 64 00:04:43,780 --> 00:04:46,800 making it a more unassuming color. 65 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,080 Not bad and kudos. 66 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:55,930 Kudos on the fitment job. This is like, some OEM grade plastic here. 67 00:04:55,930 --> 00:04:59,500 And I mean that in like a good way. Like, I wouldn't know, 68 00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:05,310 unless I looked real close and saw that these were like you know, the wrong little texture things here. 69 00:05:05,310 --> 00:05:08,940 That this isn't just an official PlayStation 5, 70 00:05:08,940 --> 00:05:12,173 ugly, you know, color thing. 71 00:05:13,970 --> 00:05:19,990 Okay, so I'm just gonna, I'm going full yellow up in this place. 72 00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:24,660 I believe that is a, "Nailed it" moment. 73 00:05:24,660 --> 00:05:26,910 Look how perfectly that lines up at the back. 74 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,000 So that's it. That's a dbranded PlayStation 5. 75 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,770 I think I was supposed to be the first one to show one. But based on that they break all their other promises 76 00:05:37,770 --> 00:05:42,020 and don't exist anymore as a company, it's possible that other people have uploaded videos with it already. 77 00:05:42,020 --> 00:05:45,950 But hey, we tried, Thanks to dbrand for sponsoring this video, 78 00:05:45,950 --> 00:05:50,550 you worthless liars. And thanks to you guys for watching. Don't forget to subscribe to ShortCircuit. 79 00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:54,510 I mean, okay, they didn't lie. They did surprise me. I was, expecting 80 00:05:54,510 --> 00:05:58,753 to actually be paid for a sponsored video. This is, quite unusual.
