00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:05.240
So there's no doubt that dual monitors increases your productivity dramatically,

00:00:05.420 --> 00:00:08.080
whether you're in the office or on the go,

00:00:08.180 --> 00:00:13.100
be it at the airport, in a coffee shop, or just, you know, hanging out at a friend's house.

00:00:13.500 --> 00:00:20.180
But it's clear that when it comes to taking two monitors with you,

00:00:20.520 --> 00:00:22.860
there are a couple of disadvantages.

00:00:23.560 --> 00:00:28.840
One is that the typical desktop monitor is a little on the heavy side.

00:00:28.840 --> 00:00:37.980
And two, it's going to require access to an AC power outlet,

00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:43.820
something that you won't necessarily have with you when you're at, you know, the average airport,

00:00:43.900 --> 00:00:47.980
unless, you know, the airports where you're from are better equipped than the ones around here.

00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:54.500
So today's video then is all about creating your own perfect productivity space

00:00:54.500 --> 00:00:58.740
that you can take with you and set up virtually anywhere.

00:00:59.700 --> 00:01:00.220
Yeah.

00:01:00.400 --> 00:01:02.240
But not like that.

00:01:02.980 --> 00:01:03.920
Like this.

00:01:04.770 --> 00:01:05.850
Oh, that does look better.

00:01:06.450 --> 00:01:10.210
With GlassWire, you can instantly see your current and past network activity,

00:01:10.550 --> 00:01:14.550
detect malware, and block badly behaving apps on your PC or Android device.

00:01:26.860 --> 00:01:31.200
So the thing about these portable monitors is they're not exactly a new concept,

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:36.460
which sort of raises the question, why exactly are we featuring these ones?

00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:36.980
Especially,

00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.100
when they don't look that impressive.

00:01:41.100 --> 00:01:44.520
Portable monitor, display terminal equipment.

00:01:44.520 --> 00:01:47.100
I thought that was the company's name, but it's not.

00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.520
No, it's just, this is display terminal equipment inside the box.

00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:55.600
And in case you were wondering what kind of resolving power it has,

00:01:56.160 --> 00:01:57.900
they didn't even check one for us.

00:01:58.500 --> 00:01:59.100
Okay.

00:01:59.180 --> 00:02:01.480
Have you ever heard resolution called resolving power?

00:02:03.400 --> 00:02:06.860
Yes, in the context of like a space telescope.

00:02:07.260 --> 00:02:07.820
So for all,

00:02:07.820 --> 00:02:08.460
it's rudimentary.

00:02:08.460 --> 00:02:10.740
Ness assuming that that's a word,

00:02:10.740 --> 00:02:12.480
the packaging is actually not bad.

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:14.820
I think it'd be very unlikely to be damaged in the box.

00:02:14.820 --> 00:02:18.180
And they've got actually a pretty decent accessory package inside.

00:02:18.180 --> 00:02:19.180
You've got a,

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:19.860
oh,

00:02:19.860 --> 00:02:21.960
that's kind of a shame to see in 2019,

00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:23.700
but you've got a regular sort of,

00:02:23.700 --> 00:02:23.960
wow,

00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:24.720
what are these called?

00:02:25.180 --> 00:02:26.340
DC adapter.

00:02:26.460 --> 00:02:26.880
Yeah.

00:02:26.880 --> 00:02:27.960
That kind of connector.

00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:28.140
Yeah.

00:02:28.140 --> 00:02:29.040
I forget what they're called,

00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:30.600
whatever cylinder plug,

00:02:32.070 --> 00:02:34.890
a remote that actually looks kind of like the NVIDIA shield TV,

00:02:34.890 --> 00:02:40.740
one HDMI cable type C to type a,

00:02:40.980 --> 00:02:44.080
and finally a type C to type C cable.

00:02:44.320 --> 00:02:45.820
So this is pretty nice.

00:02:45.820 --> 00:02:46.060
Actually,

00:02:46.060 --> 00:02:47.680
the first thing I'm noticing is the bezel.

00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:48.100
Yeah,

00:02:48.100 --> 00:02:49.840
actually except the bottom.

00:02:50.440 --> 00:02:54.640
But if you think about how it's intended to be used next to a laptop where

00:02:54.700 --> 00:02:56.380
almost all of them have that,

00:02:56.380 --> 00:02:57.820
that large bottom bezel,

00:02:58.180 --> 00:02:58.660
then I,

00:02:58.700 --> 00:03:00.160
it's not going to stand out whatsoever.

00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:00.640
And in fact,

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:03.880
it might even be better for synchronizing your mouse movements across the

00:03:03.880 --> 00:03:04.420
displays.

00:03:04.940 --> 00:03:05.200
Okay.

00:03:05.200 --> 00:03:06.460
So it looks cool as a tablet,

00:03:06.460 --> 00:03:07.720
but how does it actually stand up?

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:08.920
No,

00:03:08.920 --> 00:03:09.040
no,

00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:09.700
I've seen,

00:03:09.740 --> 00:03:09.940
yeah,

00:03:09.940 --> 00:03:11.020
I've seen ones like this before.

00:03:11.020 --> 00:03:13.960
So the mechanism honestly doesn't feel amazing.

00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:14.280
In fact,

00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.960
you can see a little bit of kind of flex in the

00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:17.680
back there.

00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:18.880
Um,

00:03:19.300 --> 00:03:19.480
I mean,

00:03:19.480 --> 00:03:21.340
I don't think it's coming off or anything,

00:03:21.340 --> 00:03:24.820
but I think a couple more screws right here and right here

00:03:24.820 --> 00:03:27.380
under the hinge would have gone a long way towards making that

00:03:27.380 --> 00:03:28.600
feel a little less flexy,

00:03:28.900 --> 00:03:31.120
but the actual kickstand mechanism feels pretty good.

00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:35.660
You can go all the way from quite vertical and it's pretty

00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:36.100
sturdy,

00:03:36.100 --> 00:03:38.500
actually all the way down to about as low as I

00:03:38.500 --> 00:03:40.540
think you'd need to like my worst case scenario,

00:03:40.540 --> 00:03:40.840
I think,

00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:43.420
is like jammed onto like a plane.

00:03:43.420 --> 00:03:46.480
Assuming I can actually balance this on the dinner tray thing.

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:47.280
This is metal though,

00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:47.740
right?

00:03:47.740 --> 00:03:47.900
Yeah.

00:03:47.900 --> 00:03:48.100
Yeah.

00:03:48.100 --> 00:03:49.660
Do you think that's a little scrapey?

00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:51.580
You think that was scratch a desk?

00:03:51.580 --> 00:03:53.020
Maybe honestly,

00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:56.140
I'd be less concerned about scratching and I'd be more concerned about

00:03:56.140 --> 00:03:57.640
just slipping in general.

00:03:57.760 --> 00:04:00.700
I'd want a rubberized foot or something along there just for that.

00:04:00.700 --> 00:04:02.440
Even what's up with that.

00:04:02.620 --> 00:04:03.580
That looks like rust.

00:04:03.760 --> 00:04:04.840
So here's the thing.

00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.540
This is a Kickstarter project.

00:04:07.600 --> 00:04:08.300
Um,

00:04:08.300 --> 00:04:10.360
so these are pre-production samples,

00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.240
but I guess this is our opportunity to give them feedback

00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:14.920
for when they do the finished ones.

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:15.580
Uh,

00:04:15.580 --> 00:04:19.100
I would consider rust on a product that has just been

00:04:19.100 --> 00:04:20.440
taken out of the box to be,

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:21.580
um,

00:04:21.880 --> 00:04:22.460
how do you say it?

00:04:23.490 --> 00:04:24.170
Unacceptable.

00:04:25.170 --> 00:04:25.890
However he does it.

00:04:27.530 --> 00:04:28.250
It's magnetic.

00:04:28.850 --> 00:04:30.110
Those are the rusty magnets.

00:04:30.650 --> 00:04:30.770
Oh,

00:04:30.770 --> 00:04:31.530
and then here,

00:04:31.530 --> 00:04:34.070
you've got some labels for the buttons.

00:04:34.590 --> 00:04:35.810
Rear labels.

00:04:36.170 --> 00:04:37.910
Why is this as bad?

00:04:38.370 --> 00:04:40.370
There's not enough room on the bezel for them.

00:04:40.370 --> 00:04:42.770
Is that as bad an experience as I think it is though?

00:04:43.250 --> 00:04:43.490
Uh,

00:04:43.490 --> 00:04:46.130
well I did play with it a little bit earlier and it sucked.

00:04:46.130 --> 00:04:46.310
Yeah.

00:04:46.310 --> 00:04:46.970
I didn't like it.

00:04:47.210 --> 00:04:52.010
One of the things that's actually special about these guys is that they've got a

00:04:52.010 --> 00:04:57.010
built in battery so you can use them without access to a wall plug,

00:04:57.110 --> 00:04:59.770
which is sort of part of the joke we were making at the beginning of the video

00:04:59.770 --> 00:05:01.430
where I was carrying around a full size monitor.

00:05:01.730 --> 00:05:06.330
It's a 5,000 milliamp hour battery and they claim it'll last you five hours,

00:05:06.330 --> 00:05:09.770
which is pretty sweet because you don't want to drain your laptop's battery.

00:05:09.770 --> 00:05:10.190
That's all.

00:05:10.190 --> 00:05:11.190
It's ready at a premium.

00:05:11.210 --> 00:05:11.810
Yeah.

00:05:11.810 --> 00:05:15.570
And that's the way that most of these external laptop monitors have worked in the

00:05:15.570 --> 00:05:20.150
past is just by plugging in via a couple of USB plugs so that they can take

00:05:20.150 --> 00:05:24.590
both display and power from your laptop's built in battery.

00:05:24.870 --> 00:05:25.130
Okay,

00:05:25.130 --> 00:05:25.410
cool.

00:05:25.410 --> 00:05:29.230
Well why don't we go ahead and set them up and take a look at the two different

00:05:29.230 --> 00:05:29.530
models.

00:05:29.530 --> 00:05:34.530
So my understanding is this one is actually 4k and that one's 10 80.

00:05:34.850 --> 00:05:35.330
Yes.

00:05:35.330 --> 00:05:36.290
So I'll take this one then.

00:05:36.470 --> 00:05:36.750
Yeah.

00:05:36.750 --> 00:05:39.690
Well jokes on you because this one's touchscreen and that one's not.

00:05:39.770 --> 00:05:40.130
Oh,

00:05:40.190 --> 00:05:40.410
okay.

00:05:40.410 --> 00:05:41.570
Well that's actually kind of cool.

00:05:41.750 --> 00:05:44.810
So there are a couple of things I immediately notice hooking this thing up.

00:05:44.850 --> 00:05:47.750
One is that interestingly,

00:05:47.750 --> 00:05:51.070
you can turn on HDR and wide color gamut.

00:05:51.070 --> 00:05:55.730
So technically this appears to be an HDR display with the only

00:05:55.730 --> 00:06:00.430
problem being that if the out of the box experience is anything to go

00:06:00.430 --> 00:06:00.770
by,

00:06:00.770 --> 00:06:05.610
it is not nearly bright enough for me to consider it to be really

00:06:05.610 --> 00:06:07.070
truly HDR ready.

00:06:07.190 --> 00:06:09.050
The spec says 300 nits.

00:06:09.050 --> 00:06:11.060
Ooh.

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:14.120
So after trying to enable HDR a handful of times,

00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:16.940
including disabling the built in display here,

00:06:16.980 --> 00:06:19.820
we've determined that it's not turning on.

00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:21.440
And quite frankly,

00:06:21.440 --> 00:06:25.160
given that it's really not much brighter even than the display built into my

00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:25.820
blade stealth,

00:06:25.820 --> 00:06:27.660
which is not a particularly bright display,

00:06:27.980 --> 00:06:32.160
I would say that you're not going to be having a true HDR experience on this

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:33.480
thing anyway.

00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.540
So I probably wouldn't stress out about that too much.

00:06:35.780 --> 00:06:39.080
So the 4k one has got HDMI in and it's 4k,

00:06:39.080 --> 00:06:40.280
60 Hertz by the way.

00:06:40.280 --> 00:06:41.600
So that would be HDMI too.

00:06:42.020 --> 00:06:43.400
It's got mini DisplayPort.

00:06:43.580 --> 00:06:45.020
It's got USB type C,

00:06:45.020 --> 00:06:47.960
and then it's actually got a couple type a ports.

00:06:48.140 --> 00:06:50.060
So that USB type C is an uplink.

00:06:50.060 --> 00:06:51.200
You can use the thing as a hub,

00:06:51.200 --> 00:06:52.640
plug your keyboard and mouse into it,

00:06:52.640 --> 00:06:56.120
which is a pretty useful feature in the age of the dongle,

00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:59.240
given that you can't take for granted that your laptop will actually have a

00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:00.140
type a port on it.

00:07:00.260 --> 00:07:02.900
Speaking of things you can't take for granted on modern devices,

00:07:03.140 --> 00:07:03.980
a headphone jack.

00:07:04.020 --> 00:07:06.740
So if you're using HDMI and you've got audio over HDMI,

00:07:06.740 --> 00:07:08.200
then you can pass that through to yourself.

00:07:08.420 --> 00:07:09.020
How's yours looking?

00:07:09.320 --> 00:07:10.940
No DisplayPort mini or otherwise,

00:07:10.940 --> 00:07:12.260
but we have HDMI.

00:07:12.300 --> 00:07:13.440
We have two instead of one,

00:07:13.440 --> 00:07:14.640
but they're the tiny,

00:07:14.640 --> 00:07:15.380
tiny kind.

00:07:15.380 --> 00:07:16.740
I hate mini HDMI.

00:07:16.820 --> 00:07:17.520
Why do you hate it?

00:07:17.760 --> 00:07:19.820
It's a really flimsy connector.

00:07:19.860 --> 00:07:23.480
So both the receptacle and the plug itself are prone to

00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:27.660
easy breakage because it's so thin and so wide.

00:07:27.660 --> 00:07:28.800
And quite honestly,

00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:30.720
it's just pretty poorly designed.

00:07:30.960 --> 00:07:31.880
Then what else do we have here?

00:07:32.300 --> 00:07:32.480
Well,

00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:34.640
instead of having your full size USB A's,

00:07:34.700 --> 00:07:38.060
you have micros and then you've got a USB-C again.

00:07:38.060 --> 00:07:38.880
And again,

00:07:39.020 --> 00:07:40.990
your headphone jack.

00:07:41.590 --> 00:07:43.330
So this is all pretty cool so far,

00:07:43.330 --> 00:07:47.290
but one of the key pieces of information that's missing up until this

00:07:47.290 --> 00:07:52.030
point is how exactly these stack up against other options available on the

00:07:52.030 --> 00:07:52.370
market.

00:07:52.370 --> 00:07:56.030
Because if you can get something like this for the same price from a

00:07:56.030 --> 00:07:57.610
brand that you've ever heard of,

00:07:57.770 --> 00:07:59.430
maybe one with slightly better build quality,

00:07:59.430 --> 00:08:02.490
obviously I would recommend going that route instead.

00:08:02.770 --> 00:08:07.770
So we fired up B&H and it turns out the Zen screen go 15.6 inch IPS monitor

00:08:07.770 --> 00:08:08.770
from a CX.

00:08:08.770 --> 00:08:13.090
This is the same monitor from a Seuss is $289.

00:08:13.090 --> 00:08:15.370
So that's actually less than the MSRP,

00:08:15.370 --> 00:08:21.130
but more than the Kickstarter pre-order price for the 1080p model here.

00:08:21.370 --> 00:08:24.730
And it's got a 7,800 milliamp hour battery.

00:08:25.090 --> 00:08:27.490
And that is a significant increase.

00:08:27.530 --> 00:08:27.790
Yeah.

00:08:27.790 --> 00:08:29.330
So these are 5,000.

00:08:29.930 --> 00:08:30.730
However,

00:08:31.310 --> 00:08:33.290
we haven't been making this video for nothing.

00:08:33.650 --> 00:08:37.110
I swear there was a reason that we bothered and that's this.

00:08:37.370 --> 00:08:38.750
The main difference here,

00:08:38.750 --> 00:08:43.430
this has a touch screen interface and that just isn't something that we've

00:08:43.430 --> 00:08:47.150
seen for as cheap as this in the past.

00:08:47.450 --> 00:08:51.620
So that is pretty darn cool.

00:08:51.980 --> 00:08:55.520
If you've ever tried to find a touch screen monitor,

00:08:55.740 --> 00:08:59.120
like not a replacement for your phone or anything like that,

00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:01.440
but a touch screen monitor for your computer,

00:09:01.580 --> 00:09:04.520
you'd be shocked to find out how expensive they are.

00:09:04.700 --> 00:09:06.900
So $300 for one like this,

00:09:06.900 --> 00:09:08.460
that's honestly not the most amazing,

00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:13.460
amazing display I've ever seen in terms of the trails behind objects or the

00:09:13.740 --> 00:09:14.820
contrast.

00:09:14.880 --> 00:09:19.140
But what it does have is something that's utterly unique right now at this

00:09:19.140 --> 00:09:19.980
price point.

00:09:20.040 --> 00:09:24.240
And that is touch capability also a matte finish on the screen,

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.840
which is very unusual for a touch screen as for the 4k model.

00:09:27.860 --> 00:09:28.020
Well,

00:09:28.020 --> 00:09:31.340
this one's quite a lot more expensive at around $500,

00:09:31.460 --> 00:09:34.800
but it's a 4k portable monitor,

00:09:34.800 --> 00:09:35.840
which again,

00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:37.340
at the time that we requested,

00:09:37.340 --> 00:09:38.240
these was not something,

00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:39.860
something that we had seen before.

00:09:40.160 --> 00:09:41.240
It's definitely sharp,

00:09:41.660 --> 00:09:45.000
but it is not the best looking 4k display that I've seen.

00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:46.520
How was the color accuracy on this guy?

00:09:47.180 --> 00:09:49.160
I think the Delta E's were around five.

00:09:49.460 --> 00:09:49.680
Okay.

00:09:49.680 --> 00:09:50.780
So that's better.

00:09:50.780 --> 00:09:52.780
Acceptable if you're not a pro,

00:09:52.780 --> 00:09:57.200
but we kind of introduced this as being useful for those people doing remote

00:09:57.200 --> 00:09:57.920
work.

00:09:57.920 --> 00:09:59.780
If you're a contract graphic designer or something,

00:09:59.780 --> 00:10:00.980
you want to be at a coffee shop.

00:10:01.160 --> 00:10:01.300
Well,

00:10:01.300 --> 00:10:02.060
how about gaming then?

00:10:02.500 --> 00:10:03.280
Yeah.

00:10:03.280 --> 00:10:04.240
How about gaming?

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:05.080
Let's go.

00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:07.280
Okay.

00:10:07.520 --> 00:10:07.640
I've got a type,

00:10:07.640 --> 00:10:07.660
I've got a type,

00:10:07.660 --> 00:10:09.280
I've got a type C to HDMI,

00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:11.420
and then I can go ahead and plug into,

00:10:11.420 --> 00:10:13.420
we've got the 10 ADP touch model here.

00:10:13.660 --> 00:10:17.800
And theoretically I should be able to fire up the fortnight.

00:10:20.380 --> 00:10:20.960
All right.

00:10:21.660 --> 00:10:22.540
Play some fortnight,

00:10:22.540 --> 00:10:22.860
baby.

00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:25.460
Is this even going to be worthwhile?

00:10:25.820 --> 00:10:27.160
You got to tap the screen.

00:10:27.160 --> 00:10:28.400
You're not holding a controller.

00:10:28.760 --> 00:10:30.760
We could hold a controller.

00:10:31.400 --> 00:10:31.880
BRB.

00:10:32.740 --> 00:10:33.460
Is that you or me?

00:10:34.100 --> 00:10:35.260
Nice.

00:10:35.300 --> 00:10:36.060
That's not bad.

00:10:36.160 --> 00:10:37.160
That's pretty sweet.

00:10:37.160 --> 00:10:38.900
That's pretty cool.

00:10:39.400 --> 00:10:43.360
Being able to just like unpack your 15 inch display.

00:10:43.460 --> 00:10:44.660
You already have a phone,

00:10:44.760 --> 00:10:46.340
pull out a controller and dongle.

00:10:46.460 --> 00:10:48.600
So now that we know with a little bit of searching for a

00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:50.320
controller that doesn't brick things,

00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:56.260
we could have basically a mobile console experience just with this and a

00:10:56.260 --> 00:10:57.600
controller packed in our bag,

00:10:57.660 --> 00:10:58.500
a couple of cables.

00:10:58.800 --> 00:10:58.980
Uh,

00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:00.460
but James wants to try something else.

00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:02.820
So this one actually has a USB type C input.

00:11:02.940 --> 00:11:07.140
So we're going to get rid of this crappy HDMI mini and try this and see what happens.

00:11:07.260 --> 00:11:08.580
Do you actually know what's going to happen?

00:11:08.640 --> 00:11:08.940
Nope.

00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:09.420
Oh,

00:11:09.780 --> 00:11:09.960
well,

00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:11.340
I looked at their Kickstarter page,

00:11:11.940 --> 00:11:14.200
so we've got the aspect ratio difference here,

00:11:14.520 --> 00:11:17.040
but that's possibly something we could adjust as well.

00:11:17.040 --> 00:11:17.460
Actually.

00:11:17.760 --> 00:11:18.480
I want to know,

00:11:18.540 --> 00:11:21.220
but this is touch screens on.

00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:22.320
No way.

00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:22.860
Yes.

00:11:23.520 --> 00:11:24.480
It's working.

00:11:24.700 --> 00:11:25.080
Yes,

00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:26.260
because it's USB-C.

00:11:26.740 --> 00:11:29.700
You can chill like this and then have it kind of out.

00:11:31.380 --> 00:11:31.560
Dude,

00:11:31.560 --> 00:11:33.180
this is like having a 70 inch TV.

00:11:34.920 --> 00:11:36.660
So we're going to try an iPhone now,

00:11:36.940 --> 00:11:37.140
but,

00:11:37.140 --> 00:11:37.740
unfortunately,

00:11:37.740 --> 00:11:39.960
because iPhones don't use USB type C,

00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:41.280
they have lightning.

00:11:41.340 --> 00:11:41.700
Uh,

00:11:41.700 --> 00:11:43.260
we can't just use our direct connection.

00:11:43.260 --> 00:11:44.700
We're going to have to go back to HDMI dude.

00:11:44.760 --> 00:11:44.960
Oh,

00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:45.300
sure.

00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:45.660
Okay.

00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:49.360
And a dongle.

00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:50.780
It picked it up right away.

00:11:51.140 --> 00:11:52.040
Interestingly,

00:11:52.180 --> 00:11:54.740
we are pillar boxed and letter boxed,

00:11:55.140 --> 00:11:57.440
but we're getting audio over the display now.

00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:57.980
Why do we,

00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:00.260
why didn't we get audio ever before?

00:12:00.300 --> 00:12:01.880
Maybe we just have the game volume turned down.

00:12:01.920 --> 00:12:02.920
I might've had it off.

00:12:03.500 --> 00:12:05.240
Those speakers really are not amazing.

00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:07.820
The latency is not terrible.

00:12:07.820 --> 00:12:08.900
It's noticeable.

00:12:09.260 --> 00:12:10.160
So you can see that.

00:12:10.940 --> 00:12:11.540
Yeah,

00:12:11.540 --> 00:12:12.380
but it's usable.

00:12:12.560 --> 00:12:14.660
Like if you're used to gaming on a TV or something anyway,

00:12:14.660 --> 00:12:16.340
I don't think you're going to notice the difference that much.

00:12:16.400 --> 00:12:19.760
I'm actually like considering taking one of these on my trip that I'm going on

00:12:19.760 --> 00:12:20.440
today.

00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:24.140
And it doesn't really add like a ton of weight,

00:12:24.140 --> 00:12:27.060
especially if I chuck it in my carry on instead of carrying in my backpack or

00:12:27.060 --> 00:12:27.740
something.

00:12:27.740 --> 00:12:28.860
That feels very light.

00:12:28.880 --> 00:12:30.680
It's definitely lighter than an iPad.

00:12:31.400 --> 00:12:32.700
The new ones are pretty thin.

00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:33.380
They're pretty light.

00:12:33.380 --> 00:12:34.160
It's impressive.

00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.040
I think this probably feels lighter just because it's bigger.

00:12:37.040 --> 00:12:38.140
It's like lower density.

00:12:38.180 --> 00:12:38.320
Well,

00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:40.040
what about the iPad pro that's that size?

00:12:40.040 --> 00:12:40.580
I'm going to look it up,

00:12:40.800 --> 00:12:41.640
sir.

00:12:41.640 --> 00:12:42.800
James gets food wrong.

00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:44.380
In three,

00:12:44.380 --> 00:12:45.780
two,

00:12:45.780 --> 00:12:47.760
one.

00:12:47.760 --> 00:12:48.120
Damn it.

00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:49.620
It's 1.57 pounds.

00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:51.480
So conclusion here,

00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:56.260
then portable displays are as cool as they've ever been even cooler now that

00:12:56.260 --> 00:12:57.580
they have built in batteries.

00:12:57.580 --> 00:12:58.600
And these ones,

00:12:58.740 --> 00:13:03.640
while not amazing are certainly coming in at a price where I think that

00:13:03.640 --> 00:13:05.420
they look pretty compelling,

00:13:05.420 --> 00:13:08.380
especially if you're after that touchscreen functionality.

00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:08.680
Okay.

00:13:08.680 --> 00:13:09.220
So this is the thing,

00:13:09.220 --> 00:13:10.960
I don't know if you guys are familiar with the 4k,

00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:12.500
but the people want to definitive answer.

00:13:12.500 --> 00:13:18.920
So can you give us one of those like emperor gladiator thumb things?

00:13:18.920 --> 00:13:19.740
He lives.

00:13:19.740 --> 00:13:19.840
Okay.

00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:20.540
So here's the thing.

00:13:20.540 --> 00:13:21.980
If money's no object,

00:13:22.020 --> 00:13:23.120
I like the 4k one.

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:24.740
I'm going to take this one on my trip.

00:13:24.740 --> 00:13:25.580
However,

00:13:25.580 --> 00:13:27.480
money is a concern.

00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:29.060
So they sent us these,

00:13:29.060 --> 00:13:30.660
but if you're actually buying one,

00:13:30.660 --> 00:13:33.040
this one looks like the more compelling option.

00:13:33.040 --> 00:13:35.060
It does have some significant shortcomings.

00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:39.140
I don't like the limited brightness and I don't like the inaccurate colors out

00:13:39.140 --> 00:13:39.980
of the box,

00:13:39.980 --> 00:13:41.840
but at anywhere from 240 to 300,

00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:48.120
depending on whether you preorder it or whether you wait,

00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.160
it looks like a pretty compelling value.

00:13:50.160 --> 00:13:53.560
If you have any use of the touchscreen,

00:13:53.560 --> 00:13:57.090
that is absolutely the killer app of this display right here.

00:13:57.090 --> 00:14:01.170
The coves drive wireless earphones feature noise canceling to reduce unwanted

00:14:01.170 --> 00:14:02.170
ambient sounds.

00:14:02.170 --> 00:14:06.030
They've got a built in microphone to answer calls hands-free and they feature

00:14:06.030 --> 00:14:08.070
IPX seven water resistance,

00:14:08.070 --> 00:14:11.790
meaning that the headset can actually be submerged for up to 30 minutes in

00:14:11.790 --> 00:14:13.010
three feet of water.

00:14:13.010 --> 00:14:13.870
The battery provides,

00:14:13.890 --> 00:14:18.030
five to seven hours of playback and they stay in place while being lightweight

00:14:18.030 --> 00:14:19.230
and durable.

00:14:26.140 --> 00:14:27.180
So thanks for watching guys.

00:14:27.180 --> 00:14:28.320
If you disliked this video,

00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:29.200
