00:00:08.040 --> 00:00:17.240
today we'll be doing a quick unboxing of the Razer armadillo 2 now this is a

00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:19.320
mouse cable management system holder

00:00:17.240 --> 00:00:24.800
basically it secures the cord of your mouse so we're going to go ahead and

00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:29.320
open up the packaging here 1 2 3 four

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:31.599
Razer as always is a master of packaging

00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:35.800
so no matter how expensive or inexpensive the product is it always

00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:40.600
comes in a great retail box so there's like a multi-layered box thing going on

00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:44.920
oh I unpacked it wrong yeah see so that's not how they intended not the way

00:00:42.480 --> 00:00:49.879
it was meant to be unpacked so here we go so put that back in there this is how

00:00:48.440 --> 00:00:56.960
it was meant to be unpacked you're supposed to take the top off so the armadillo 2 is a mouse cord

00:00:54.680 --> 00:01:01.920
holder okay I'm going to go ahead and do this it's a fairly simple

00:00:58.760 --> 00:01:01.920
straightforward device

00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:09.640
basically it's a weighted companion cone

00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:14.520
and uh here I have a mouse here unfortunately not a razor Mouse this is

00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:16.799
just a cheapo mouse that I got with uh

00:01:14.520 --> 00:01:22.560
uh demo unit of something and let's see if we can figure out how this

00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:27.720
works okay so that that moves a little bit that doesn't come with

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:31.880
instructions I guess they figure you should be smart enough to figure it out

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:37.600
on your own but uh not everyone necessarily is so why don't we go ahead

00:01:34.759 --> 00:01:42.920
and wrap that around and then we go ahead and run that to wherever it goes

00:01:40.520 --> 00:01:47.119
is that how it works I guess so hold on hold on cuz it looks like

00:01:45.479 --> 00:01:51.680
there's a bit of a oh oh here we go hold on okay okay I think I get it I think I

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:57.439
get it so I don't get it give me a

00:01:54.119 --> 00:01:59.320
minute I get it now it's um it's so

00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:04.039
simple that it's was hard for me to figure out so basically you push the top

00:02:01.960 --> 00:02:08.479
like this that opens up a gap in the side there okay you take your mouse cord

00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:13.720
you thread it into the Gap and you let go now your mouse cord is secured now

00:02:11.480 --> 00:02:17.680
why would you need this you might ask the reason you might need this is

00:02:15.480 --> 00:02:22.760
because when you are moving a Wired Mouse remember wired mice until you get

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:28.560
into the very high-end Wireless mice still provide the best performance for

00:02:25.640 --> 00:02:32.519
responsiveness for gaming so well I mean this one's probably an exception but a

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:37.599
high quality Wired Mouse still provides better performance so the reason is that

00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:43.000
there's a lot less drag on the cord of the mouse if it is secured with a

00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:46.440
comfortable amount of slack whereas let's say you've got it running off the

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:49.560
end of your desk which I see time and time again people with their mice

00:02:47.959 --> 00:02:53.120
configured like this so you're sitting at your desk like this okay so let's say

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:57.760
you look down no no I want you to stay not you look down I mean with your

00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:02.799
camera in your FPS game you look down so watch this cord now it's hooked now when

00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:07.360
I go to look back up all of a sudden there's extra

00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:12.040
resistance on the mouse so I can't move precisely so that's what the armadillo 2

00:03:09.480 --> 00:03:15.879
is for now I actually use a mouse cord holder at home I don't remember where I

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:19.519
got it but it's a it's a weighted one where the top unscrews you put the mouse

00:03:17.720 --> 00:03:23.400
cord into a gap and then you screw the top back on to secure the cord very

00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:27.519
similar idea so it's just got a bit of heft to it so that it's not going to

00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:30.920
move around it has a grippy bottom also so that it's not going to move around

00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:34.000
and it's so simple to use that I can't figure it out thank you for checking out
