WEBVTT

00:00:03.639 --> 00:00:09.320
a hole last time we showed you guys a kick

00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:13.920
proof TV it was a purpose built one with a kick prooof screen protector built

00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:22.519
into the front of it but unfortunately the image quality wasn't that great

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:26.039
thankfully we are back at it again this

00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:31.480
time with a kick prooof screen protector

00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:35.040
that can be installed on any 55 in t V

00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:37.440
now here's the thing a screen protector

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:42.000
is generally designed to prevent incidental scuffs and scratches like

00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:46.320
when you've got your phone and your keys in the same pocket at the same time

00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:52.079
because you're some sort of monster but it is also possible for a screen

00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:56.800
protector to have some impact resistance dbrands prism series for example has

00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:01.879
excellent impact resistance as we have tested ourselves now I'm not saying the

00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:07.680
screen protect in here is anything like a dbrand prism I'm just saying that it's

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:11.280
not impossible that having like a an

00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:13.119
impact spreading layer in the front

00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:18.320
could help prevent the glass in the front or the LCD panel behind it from

00:01:15.759 --> 00:01:24.640
being cracked if it were struck by something as for my confidence level in

00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:27.159
all this well to give you some idea guys

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:33.159
I went out of my way to choose the cheapest 55 in display in our entire ire

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:37.520
Studio because I don't think it's going to live to the end of this

00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:52.399
video unfortunately our resident expert Chinese translator Andy is in

00:01:50.119 --> 00:01:57.320
self-isolation right now so we're going to have to settle for our second

00:01:53.880 --> 00:02:00.000
Stringer so this one

00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:06.560
is um this is what I'm talking about I want

00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:09.560
Andy back LED LCD LCD um Shell Shell

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:12.520
Shell uh protect your show uh protect

00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:17.000
your TV screen show okay does it say what it's made of or anything like

00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:23.519
that no just to be careful put this side up what does that mean I have no idea

00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:30.680
The Sun Shines outside your house solar power I actually have very little idea

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:34.640
what to expect I mean this is definitely

00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:39.080
not something I expected uh oh

00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:41.599
boy um did we buy a two pack did it say

00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:47.200
anything about two pack on the packaging like that he's still alive I cracked

00:02:44.040 --> 00:02:52.120
myself up I think this is two matching

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:54.000
sets of mounting hardware but it's like

00:02:52.120 --> 00:03:01.000
an elastic band some plastic things here and like

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:04.000
what are these I assume this QR code

00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.519
would be a link to a manual or

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:11.640
something unfortunately it seems to be just a link

00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:16.920
to download WeChat honestly it doesn't seem like a screen protector at all it

00:03:13.959 --> 00:03:23.519
just seems like a normal piece of glass this is really not what I expected

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:23.519
at all

00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:30.519
okay how on Earth are you expected to

00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:34.120
install this oh wow it's huge

00:03:30.519 --> 00:03:36.840
so it's not just the size of the panel

00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:43.360
itself it's the size of the entire front of the TV interesting let's start with

00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:46.120
what we know for sure and then we can

00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:51.760
eliminate possibilities that way this has to go here there's just no way it

00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:56.439
goes anywhere else the thing I really don't understand is why does it only

00:03:53.599 --> 00:04:01.120
attach on the one side here and of course I'm short some mounting

00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:05.400
hardware there can't be only three of these there's only two options there has

00:04:03.640 --> 00:04:11.200
to be either two of something to go with the straps or four of something so

00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:13.000
there's two why are there three of those

00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:20.239
there's only three of the clear screws in this one too how could you possibly

00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:23.040
have two of everything else and three

00:04:20.239 --> 00:04:25.800
clear screws unless they just know they're crappy and they expect it to

00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:30.400
break or something what is even going on here

00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:36.560
wait wait the clear ones must be because it's

00:04:33.479 --> 00:04:41.600
meant to go on the front of the glass so

00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:44.759
maybe there's three holes so one two a

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:49.000
revelation from my camera operator you

00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:51.720
have to scan the QR code in we chat wait

00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:58.400
what is this this isn't helpful okay here we go so from the chat I just go to

00:04:54.840 --> 00:05:02.199
their profile and then moments and in

00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:05.039
here there's a guide oh wow thank you

00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:10.360
what easy to find most excellent wonderful instructions these are I think

00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:17.400
there's just an extra washer just for LOLs

00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:19.680
oh well why didn't I think of that look

00:05:17.400 --> 00:05:27.000
ladies and gentlemen it's very straightforward you take the clear screw

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:29.800
you put the plastic washer on it you

00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:35.400
stick it through the hole like that then then you take another plastic washer you

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.720
put it on the back of there and then you screw that

00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:46.440
into the front of the bracket how intuitive and secure oh my

00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:50.960
goodness I just noticed it's

00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:55.400
directional one end of this bracket is longer than the other I got to turn it

00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:59.160
around you know hanging the entire weight of this glass panel off this

00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:03.000
elastic strap doesn't seem that great actually no now that I think of it um a

00:06:01.400 --> 00:06:09.120
lot of the weight's hanging off of these brackets at the top held in place by a

00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:12.360
clear plastic bolt okay here it

00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:16.800
goes so we got our brackets on the

00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:18.639
top we got our straps on the bottom okay

00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:26.199
so it hangs off the TV little something like that all right

00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:28.240
all right all right I'm with you so far

00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:33.520
come around back here I managed to get this right the long Bolt are to secure

00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:33.520
the glass against the

00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:39.319
TV oh if you had a super thin TV it

00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:44.319
actually might not be long enough I don't think no offense if

00:06:42.599 --> 00:06:51.440
you're putting something like this on your TV that you have a super thin like

00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:54.039
high-end TV though and here it is the

00:06:51.440 --> 00:06:58.199
caass okay in the video they put it on here they just hang it off the back of

00:06:55.919 --> 00:07:00.960
the bolt but uh we're going to we're going to go One Step better we're going

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:05.160
to put it on the inside there so it at least has a harder time slipping off so

00:07:03.400 --> 00:07:09.080
do you want to rage out at it yeah let's do a controller throw shall we

00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:13.720
controller throw yeah uh yeah don't get Co you got to sanitize after but yeah

00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:17.879
anyway okay uh I would get go a little bit wider but wait hold on um I actually

00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:24.599
have very little faith that this is going to work we should both be wearing eye protection one sec here's some

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:29.120
splooge for just put that on the glasses there you go oh okay see I haven't left

00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:34.280
my house in 2 weeks so I don't really know all these procedures

00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:35.759
yet all I know is wear the mask yeah

00:07:34.280 --> 00:07:40.199
okay uh show me your gamer rage that

00:07:38.599 --> 00:07:46.720
controller means nothing to me it's a Niko Bluetooth controller yeah yeah

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:07.680
how long did that take to put

00:08:07.919 --> 00:08:15.159
on it did save the TV oh yeah that's

00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:19.960
Wait no that's looks like is that where you hit it I don't

00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:24.080
know I mean there's some Nicks in the TV yeah

00:08:22.960 --> 00:08:29.080
all right I mean it's a lot better than if

00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:33.640
you had thrown it directly at the TV I mean based on how much of that kinetic

00:08:31.080 --> 00:08:37.360
energy turned into shattered glass I would say the controller probably

00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:42.159
survived yeah all the plastic is cracked the

00:08:38.599 --> 00:08:44.120
hosing you're back on set for literally

00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:48.480
5 minutes and you managed to shower me in shards of

00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:56.080
glass and we destroyed a controller everything makes sense thanks Luke no

00:08:51.360 --> 00:09:00.680
worries all right airm oh nice see it is

00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.680
this glass still like settling

00:09:00.760 --> 00:09:05.360
can you hear the little sounds it's making sorry I don't have much

00:09:04.079 --> 00:09:11.760
experience with tempered glass maybe that's perfectly normal but the larger

00:09:07.640 --> 00:09:13.800
pieces are still just cracking I haven't

00:09:11.760 --> 00:09:19.640
reviewed the clip yet but based on what I can observe about how there's actually

00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:22.880
multiple significant scratches in the

00:09:19.640 --> 00:09:24.720
display I think that where the

00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:29.920
controller Struck it actually doesn't have much to do with where the shards of

00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:34.399
glass kind of exploded out words and put scratches in the screen so it seems to

00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:39.920
me that the damage was probably more from the screen protector exploding than

00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:43.440
actually from the direct impact of the controller although one certainly caused

00:09:42.560 --> 00:09:50.360
the other recommended I'm going to give it a

00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:52.320
big no on this one bad mounting

00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:57.320
mechanism bad instructions and in the event that

00:09:54.760 --> 00:10:01.480
something actually goes wrong it sort of goes from bad to worse just like EG ways

00:09:59.760 --> 00:10:05.720
have over the years this video is brought to you by I fix it their Mahi

Mahi driver kit today thanks for watching guys if you

00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:41.560
enjoyed this video maybe check out the real deal the kick proof TV that had a

00:10:37.680 --> 00:10:46.360
built-in non glass screen

00:10:41.560 --> 00:10:49.040
protector yeah that is just regular old

00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:49.040
glass
