WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.980
I'm sorry anchor today we have the anchor work b600 what

00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:13.259
is it video bar it's basically just a webcam but a pretty fancy webcam they

00:00:10.380 --> 00:00:17.460
call it like a studio all-in-one kind of thing now this is video sponsored by

00:00:15.059 --> 00:00:22.560
anchor work and I agree to do this on one condition I get to take it apart at

00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:24.060
the end so let's give her we have three

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:30.359
of them and one of them's not surviving the day oh fancy look at this download the

00:00:28.439 --> 00:00:34.680
software I already did so it looks like that you get a variety of different

00:00:32.579 --> 00:00:38.840
chargers they didn't feel like localizing it for different regions so

00:00:37.140 --> 00:00:46.379
you get a bunch of different options here we go oh oh yeah this thing's big

00:00:43.559 --> 00:00:50.100
look at this it has this kind of like I don't know what you call this fabric it

00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:55.260
reminds me of um oh what was that really stupid PC that HP made ages ago they

00:00:53.640 --> 00:01:00.239
made an all-in-one that was like a trash can Mac but covered in fabric yeah

00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:05.400
Brazilian wave yeah I think it's hilarious this has like a really

00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:07.560
satisfying heft to it though feels decent there might be some aluminum in

00:01:06.720 --> 00:01:14.880
here it feels like plastic how much does it cost 220 us so the basic operation is

00:01:12.540 --> 00:01:20.280
you have a light bar that flips up like that so it not only functions as a light

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:22.799
bar but also a privacy filter so you don't have to worry about you know

00:01:21.299 --> 00:01:28.979
people looking at you through your webcam when it's off so in here you get

00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:32.400
a 2K sensor so that's 1440p 16x9 that's

00:01:28.979 --> 00:01:34.920
way higher resolution than your laptop

00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:39.960
camera probably is chances are it's like a 720p job maybe 1080p if you're lucky

00:01:38.340 --> 00:01:43.740
what do you think the bit rates are Brandon and like Skype you're not

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.759
getting yeah you're not getting 4K through that but the better the image

00:01:45.659 --> 00:01:52.020
that you put in the better an image you are going to get out kind of no matter

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.340
what you also have four microphones in this I don't quite know what the layout

00:01:54.479 --> 00:02:00.180
is but I'm guessing two of them are to pick up your voice and two of them are

00:01:58.259 --> 00:02:05.040
for noise canceling did you say there's speakers in this jono yep wow I wonder

00:02:03.299 --> 00:02:10.800
if those are any good first let's do a little Baseline reading here so here's

00:02:07.259 --> 00:02:13.200
our test this is the XPS 15 webcam and

00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:17.520
uh if it can't beat this the video is not going up because this laptop has a

00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:22.560
terrible webcam it comes with this little like monitor clamp chummy but

00:02:20.459 --> 00:02:26.580
also in the bottom it has a quarter 20 thread so you can put it on a tripod or

00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:31.260
something like that this is going to be really big for my laptop I feel like

00:02:29.340 --> 00:02:39.800
this is supposed to be used on like a desktop oh geez that's pretty what a

00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:39.800
unit that is beautiful

00:02:40.440 --> 00:02:46.080
oh I do wonder if it has Windows hello I didn't see it mentioned so I'm guessing

00:02:44.099 --> 00:02:49.140
not I also don't know if I can test that either way because this laptop has

00:02:47.700 --> 00:02:53.340
Windows hello and I think they'll get mad at each other one unfortunate thing

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:57.120
is that you have to have two USBS going into this I'm guessing because this

00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:01.260
light probably draws a little bit of current and the other one for data I do

00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:05.340
appreciate that they included type c for this but I do kind of wish they had a

00:03:03.060 --> 00:03:10.800
type c to a adapter yeah Riley take a look at this webcam

00:03:06.720 --> 00:03:13.260
is it 4K no it's 1440p

00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:19.500
it's definitely not 8K you're asking the wrong questions here Riley

00:03:15.720 --> 00:03:23.540
it has a light bar oh yeah geez no one

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:23.540
wants an 8K webcam Riley go away

00:03:24.300 --> 00:03:31.019
uh it seems like that the anchor software and OBS don't like each other

00:03:28.980 --> 00:03:35.040
very much so set up your settings in here close it and then start streaming

00:03:33.420 --> 00:03:39.299
if that's what you plan on using this for wow that's a lot better than the XPS

00:03:36.900 --> 00:03:45.180
webcam like it damn well better be like a 200 webcam as opposed to one of the

00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:50.180
worst laptop cameras but it's it is way better first of all let's just let's

00:03:47.459 --> 00:03:50.180
start with this light

00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:58.379
okay that's not that's not doing a whole lot can we turn off the lights yeah so

00:03:55.620 --> 00:04:01.860
one tap on the side turns it on and off and there's a little slider in the

00:04:00.780 --> 00:04:06.299
center that can change the brightness for you

00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:10.500
so it looks like I can change the color temperature

00:04:07.620 --> 00:04:14.459
let's try blue that's very blue looks kind of odd I personally like it right

00:04:12.720 --> 00:04:19.560
around there it's a little bit on the warmer side but not too bad let's see

00:04:16.919 --> 00:04:24.060
what brightness does yeah that's a that's a brightness slider for sure now

00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:29.940
sharpness oh geez that's a pretty scary let's

00:04:27.960 --> 00:04:34.500
let's just turn that down saturation looks like I got a bad spray tan now if

00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:38.880
that's what you're into um and going the other way I look like

00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:42.900
I'm dead cool and finally the contrast ratio

00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:46.500
let's go in here uh yep so I guess what we've learned is don't touch these

00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:51.000
sliders because the auto settings are pretty good let's see here we have a

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:55.380
couple different field of views so 65 is

00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:57.600
kind of zoomed in 78 is standard and

00:04:55.380 --> 00:05:04.320
looks fine to me and finally we have self frame how good is it let's find out

00:05:00.780 --> 00:05:06.600
come over here oh

00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:11.100
hello can you zoom in anymore let's see

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:16.259
let me move over here aha it is tracking me hey jono do you want

00:05:13.380 --> 00:05:19.440
to do a real world test yeah how do I sound you're looking all sharp yeah you

00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:24.180
look all sharp I can see like almost like every strand of your ear

00:05:21.660 --> 00:05:28.860
and like behind you the foam I can see all the foam bits yeah your forehead

00:05:26.340 --> 00:05:33.479
looks super blown out so uh yeah you need to get one of these come come grab

00:05:30.840 --> 00:05:37.860
the other one you sound the same like anywhere in that room

00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:40.620
I don't know find out so I'm going to speak

00:05:38.940 --> 00:05:46.620
and then I'm going to walk around the room so I'm going to talk and keep on

00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:51.180
talking and walk around here and continue talking and let me know if that

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:55.500
sounded just totally fine as I did that the anchor webcam would just kind of

00:05:53.340 --> 00:06:00.360
like start boosting the audio so I can definitely hear that okay now let's try

00:05:57.300 --> 00:06:02.759
it with the one that's built into this

00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:06.539
computer dude does that sound different yeah I can definitely hear some sort of

00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:10.800
I think the fans going yeah the the capture laptop's really

00:06:08.880 --> 00:06:14.940
given her can you hear me fine from over here yeah I can definitely tell that

00:06:12.900 --> 00:06:21.539
you're far away look it and I do have noise suppression just totally off in

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:23.280
teams so this is all webcam and not

00:06:21.539 --> 00:06:26.639
teams doing it sorry I'm getting distracted Jonah but I want to do a

00:06:24.960 --> 00:06:32.840
little crab Rave for a second yeah this is better than a lot of laptops

00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.840
switch to the XPS speakers

00:06:38.220 --> 00:06:44.120
thank you

00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:52.319
this is the sort of thing where like it's obviously not as loud or generally

00:06:49.259 --> 00:06:54.599
as good as the XPS 15 speakers but they

00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:58.979
didn't do what a lot of small speakers do and make it sound terrible they could

00:06:56.940 --> 00:07:03.300
have easily made this twice as loud probably by overdriving the speakers and

00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:06.720
having it just be a distorted mess but instead it's like pretty clean I'm

00:07:04.860 --> 00:07:11.639
guessing for conference calls it'll be more than adequate all right second

00:07:08.220 --> 00:07:14.940
unboxing I'm sorry Mr webcam for what's

00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:17.580
about to happen to you but uh

00:07:14.940 --> 00:07:21.780
I Wanna Have Some Fun first thing it appears that you can take this base off

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:26.220
we'll start with that I have a bad feeling we're going to have to do a

00:07:24.300 --> 00:07:29.639
little bit of cutting here soon there's a way to get in through here that would

00:07:28.259 --> 00:07:36.060
be amazing there even oh it's another quarter 20 on the bottom though that's nice to see I'm sorry anchor

00:07:34.259 --> 00:07:38.360
this is never going back together the same way

00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:49.979
okay so the back has a couple plastic clips and a lot of tape oh it's actually

00:07:47.819 --> 00:07:54.539
kind of like foamy tape as well so it probably helps a bit with uh the sound

00:07:52.500 --> 00:07:57.840
of it is this oh comes apart right like that oh there's

00:07:56.699 --> 00:08:01.139
our speakers look at these so they're packaged on

00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:06.419
either end firing outwards I guess which is kind of

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:10.199
strange but at the same time like where else are you going to put them here got

00:08:08.220 --> 00:08:15.599
a little metal shield here that's probably just for Emi compliance crap so

00:08:13.740 --> 00:08:19.979
just making sure that this doesn't you know put out random electromagnetic

00:08:17.940 --> 00:08:23.639
radiation crap and doesn't accept it either oh this also acts as a little

00:08:21.660 --> 00:08:27.419
heat spreader so we're cooling these two chips right here and this right here has

00:08:26.280 --> 00:08:33.180
a little bit of foam on top probably just to keep this clipping oh this one

00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:34.860
right here is a USB interface chip that

00:08:33.180 --> 00:08:38.940
makes sense there's probably just do power management crap we didn't need to

00:08:36.719 --> 00:08:44.039
cut the mesh that was just unfortunate before you say it in the

00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:46.459
comments I am not water cooling a webcam

00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:53.880
so right here we have the rock chip RV 1126 apparently it's a quad core that

00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:56.580
has 2.0 tops I don't know what tops are

00:08:53.880 --> 00:09:00.420
but oh this is a risk 5 processor that's sick we did a video with them a while

00:08:58.560 --> 00:09:04.080
ago and they're integrating their chips into a bunch of different you know stuff

00:09:02.339 --> 00:09:08.760
like this where you don't necessarily need all the overhead of ARM or x86

00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:12.480
chips and you just want to you know get an image off of it it looks like this

00:09:10.500 --> 00:09:17.100
xmos chip right here is what is doing all of the AI processing but it is super

00:09:15.839 --> 00:09:21.000
cool that they're doing the AI processing on chip instead of in their

00:09:19.380 --> 00:09:24.660
software so it'll just work when you plug it in instead of having to install

00:09:23.160 --> 00:09:29.940
anchor software for it to work which makes sense do you do there's the

00:09:27.300 --> 00:09:34.380
speakers now on to the star of the show though let's take a look at this sensor

00:09:31.860 --> 00:09:38.459
here's the camera module crack it open I want to see how big the sensor is we got

00:09:36.300 --> 00:09:42.000
to go all the way yeah so I just broke the lens off it seems like that they

00:09:39.899 --> 00:09:46.440
attached it just using a couple bits of solder which makes sense it looks like

00:09:44.160 --> 00:09:51.060
at the back here we have the IR filter every digital camera is an infrared

00:09:49.019 --> 00:09:56.040
camera you just need to filter that out otherwise everyone looks super weird it

00:09:53.820 --> 00:09:58.680
seems like this is a voice coil you probably can't really tell but the

00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:02.640
autofocus is done by moving this in and out ever

00:10:01.380 --> 00:10:07.079
so slightly and I'm guessing it's done in a similar

00:10:04.860 --> 00:10:13.079
way to how a speaker works and finally we have the sensor yeah there it is it's

00:10:09.779 --> 00:10:14.820
so little just Powers the light and the

00:10:13.079 --> 00:10:19.860
rest of this looks like it just goes towards the touch controls on the sides

00:10:17.160 --> 00:10:26.160
and the front so there you go check your work b600 at the link down below uh

00:10:23.579 --> 00:10:29.279
it looks like this or like this on the inside huge thanks for letting us take

00:10:27.660 --> 00:10:32.579
it apart guys if you have another video that you want to watch go watch the walk

00:10:30.839 --> 00:10:35.600
car that was fun tons of word for it
