00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:06,720
okay so today i'm unboxing a couple of zowie gear products as you can see i'm

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:11,759
in the cameraman's office so i am finally back at work after my boat with

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:16,320
the swine flu um honestly i know nothing about zowie as a company except that

4
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:20,320
they make gaming peripherals we don't actually carry them yet however i'm

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:23,680
going to have a look at these evaluation products and check out what i think of

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:29,760
them so this headset is called the hammer it should fall around like a

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,480
69.99 79.99 sort of price range it has

8
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:35,280
uh some guy on it who says it's really good

9
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:39,120
and then it has another guy who also says it's really good okay so it's

10
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:44,879
designed for esports so that means it's designed for sports that you do not

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:47,440
leave your armchair in order to do

12
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:51,440
the very best kinds of sports obviously okay so we'll start with the headset and

13
00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:54,000
they also have a mouse pad which is the g

14
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:59,199
tf or two face okay so headset here the build quality

15
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:03,680
actually there's nothing particularly exceptional

16
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,640
about it but it feels like it's going to be pretty comfortable when i go ahead

17
00:01:05,199 --> 00:01:10,400
and put this on my head so i'm just going to figure out which way okay so

18
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:15,040
the ARM here is a little bit stiff for the huge huge microphone which looks

19
00:01:13,439 --> 00:01:19,520
like it should be pretty good it's like an enormous microphone in there i

20
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:23,280
don't know why you would need that but either way that's pretty cool so this is

21
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:27,520
the left ear so i should probably be putting the uh this turns all the way

22
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:31,600
around okay so i should probably put that over there so i'm gonna check out

23
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:35,439
the uh comfort level here how do i look

24
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:39,759
cameraman is making kind of like a weird face at me this isn't actually flexible

25
00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:43,920
which is something i don't really like so you can't adjust how far the mic sits

26
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:49,040
away from your head however they're incredibly light which i guess is one

27
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:52,880
huge advantage of such a such a slim design and another thing that i've

28
00:01:50,399 --> 00:01:57,920
noticed about them as i had them on is that they are using a closed design

29
00:01:56,079 --> 00:02:00,960
so that means that sound is going to be a little bit more tinny

30
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:07,360
you're going to get a little bit less bass but the advantage is going to be that

31
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:11,280
directionality is much better other people can't hear what you're

32
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:14,959
listening to and you can't hear any outside noises like i can hardly hear

33
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:20,640
myself talk when i have these on much like the sennheiser pc350s

34
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:24,160
okay so it also comes with uh what do we

35
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:26,480
got here oh okay we've got an on

36
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:31,200
on the on the cable we have a switch for the mic as well as a volume control this

37
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:34,560
feels pretty cheap and cheesy but uh i don't think the clip is going anywhere

38
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,959
anytime soon so it should be durable enough from that perspective then we

39
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:42,800
have let's see pretty short cable but it looks like

40
00:02:40,959 --> 00:02:47,519
this little accessory package here comes with an extension cable so that you can

41
00:02:45,599 --> 00:02:51,120
either plug into the back of a keyboard on your desk or you can reach around all

42
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:58,480
the way and reach around or you can reach around all the way to the back of the case okay it also comes with a

43
00:02:54,959 --> 00:03:00,560
couple of foam ear pads

44
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:04,319
so you can actually replace the pleathery ones that come with it and it

45
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:12,239
looks like oh this is actually really easy to do with foam ones should you prefer that

46
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:14,080
feel on your ears of velour or whatever

47
00:03:12,239 --> 00:03:17,599
you want to call this material okay let's move on to the mouse pad i'm just

48
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,040
going to cough once here sorry about that

49
00:03:18,959 --> 00:03:26,640
okay i'm not still not feeling 100 quite yet okay so this is the g tfs or the two

50
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:31,200
face it is a spawn okay whatever that means it has this

51
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:35,519
badass looking guy on it all right and it says okay what is unique about

52
00:03:33,519 --> 00:03:40,400
this mouse pad is that it is a hundred percent cloth but it is as fast as

53
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:46,640
plastic because it actually uses a plastic coating over top so that's kind

54
00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:49,760
of like the steel series 5l which is a

55
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:52,319
cloth pad with a plastic layer on top

56
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:58,879
except that this is not a hard pad this is actually still a rollable

57
00:03:54,799 --> 00:04:03,120
sort of actual cloth pad whereas the 5l

58
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:04,799
sips on like a plastic back substrate

59
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:08,480
sort of thing so this is a quite a large mouse pad as you can

60
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:13,920
see here with it in front of me so i've got the cameraman's like ghetto mouse

61
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,920
here which totally sucks but in terms of

62
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:20,799
in terms of glide actually i can't really see it being any faster than the

63
00:04:17,919 --> 00:04:24,720
qck that i'm using at home but i do like the rough textured feel quite a lot if

64
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:29,120
you can i don't know how the cameraman is going to sort of capture that but

65
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:34,240
have a look and i also really like how thick it is this is quite a thick mouse

66
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,600
pad and it has nice nice woven edges

67
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:39,440
which is something that i've noticed about my qck is the edges are getting

68
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:44,800
quite frayed and i can see that this would cause that to not happen the back

69
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,320
is a rubberized very grippy i'm just obviously you'd never use a mouse on the

70
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:52,160
back of a mouse pad never do that it's stupid but i'm putting a mouse on the

71
00:04:50,479 --> 00:04:56,320
back of it so that i can demonstrate it's quite grippy when you put it down

72
00:04:54,080 --> 00:05:00,160
on the desk and it's not going to move if even if you lift your mouse and kind

73
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:05,600
of do that sort of thing anyway thank you for checking out my unboxing of the

74
00:05:02,479 --> 00:05:08,919
zowie gear hammer and two face

75
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,919
mouse pad
