1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:08,599
quick look at this and this and this and this did you notice anything only the

2
00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:10,240
last one was made by Razer here let me

3
00:00:08,599 --> 00:00:16,960
slow it down this and this that's no snake it's

4
00:00:13,799 --> 00:00:19,240
a frog and it also shows up here on the

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:23,519
sick custom hang tag and the shade of green that ain't quite right either but

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:27,400
don't feel bad when we first spotted these green and blackbox products next

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:33,399
to the check out in the auto part store we didn't notice either wait Auto Part

8
00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:35,920
store we're only 32 seconds into this

9
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:40,280
video and I have so many more questions than I did when I started guess I better

10
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:45,719
clear my calendar these uh screwdriver sharp

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:50,800
gaming peripherals are branded dart frog but they're actually manufactured by CJ

12
00:00:48,199 --> 00:00:55,280
Global Inc who even is that you ask well based on their website they're

00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:59,320

frontier okay they're a Bargain Basement Electronics manufacturer who appears to

16
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:13,479
have made some pretty big brand deals good for them frankly I didn't realize

17
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:19,320
the US Army was so into merchandising now drop down and give me 20 Segways to

24
00:01:37,759 --> 00:01:44,119
packaging is clearly designed to piggyback on Razor's hard-earned

25
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:47,079
reputation but being a knockoff isn't

26
00:01:44,119 --> 00:01:51,600
necessarily a knock against a product as long as the price is right and for what

27
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:57,600
we paid for the dartfrog m307 laser gaming mouse 11 Freedom dollar we're

28
00:01:54,479 --> 00:01:59,200
prepared to overlook a few Wards the

29
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:04,159
packaging feels more premium than some real razor products and the specs

30
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:10,160
honestly kind of appealing adjustable DPI at four levels 500 1200 1600 and

31
00:02:07,399 --> 00:02:15,280
2400 why 500 not the standard 800 I don't know ergonomic design color

32
00:02:12,959 --> 00:02:19,519
changing light seven lights or seven colors um we don't know we'll figure

33
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:24,400
that out and a braided 1 and A2 meter cable and in terms of the look and

34
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,360
ergonomics it is not that dissimilar to

35
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:31,360
comparables from Brands like Razer and Logitech to be clear there are some

36
00:02:28,519 --> 00:02:39,480
eyebrow razors here eight buttons with a fire key what's a fire key left click no

37
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,800
oh this if it works anywhere near as

38
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:46,720
well as the RGB who knows maybe I'll be impressed there it is the first piece of

39
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:51,599
our fart I mean dart frog gaming setup and next we've got the k520 metal gaming

40
00:02:50,239 --> 00:02:56,080
keyboard for $22 I don't know about you guys but I

41
00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:01,519
love it when the key specs on a product have no formatting and zero punctuation

42
00:02:58,519 --> 00:03:04,200
sorry I mean when they're romatic metal

43
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:10,799
design anti- ghosting USB plug and play specifications colon RGB LED backlight

44
00:03:07,799 --> 00:03:14,000
5ft cable usba interface anti-

45
00:03:10,799 --> 00:03:17,680
ghosting sounds promising to

46
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:21,239
me looks less

47
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:24,360
promising feels even less promising In

48
00:03:21,239 --> 00:03:26,280
fairness there is metal involved however

49
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:32,360
flimsy it might be there's probably less Flex in this t-shirt LTT Store.com but

50
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:37,879
some of these other specs I just have no idea what they're talking about seven

51
00:03:34,959 --> 00:03:42,439
keys shortcuts 12 buttons what is that even mean and why is there an Internet

52
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Explorer shortcut I guess you need it if you want to be compatible with Windows

53
00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:50,720
XP all the way to Windows 10 not 11 curiously I guess you got to draw the

54
00:03:48,519 --> 00:03:54,319
line somewhere though this will go perfectly with my mouse and look an

55
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:59,799
integrated phone holder to round out our amphibious

56
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:06,879
gaming setup we've got the dartfrog S14 two computer gaming speakers with RGB

57
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:09,200
LED lights for $11 they feature 3 wat 2

58
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:16,199
1/2 in drivers are these even actually 2 and 1/2 in they're under two frequency

59
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:19,479
response down to 25 HZ strong doubt HD

60
00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:21,239
quality sound oh boy these guys I think

61
00:04:19,479 --> 00:04:24,759
probably their best feature looking at them is going to be that they make my

62
00:04:22,479 --> 00:04:31,720
hands look huge what does separation plusus 40 DB

63
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:35,520
mean yeah the lack of an indicator for which

64
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,960
is the right and which is the Left Channel not to mention the USB power I

65
00:04:38,199 --> 00:04:44,360
think tells me everything I need to know about the performance of these

66
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:50,400
speakers they do look kind of pretty though and look at that built-in volume

67
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,120
dial is it just me or does that seem to suggest that these were headphones at

68
00:04:52,199 --> 00:04:59,000
some point oh wow I am immediately doubting

69
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:04,000
some of these very real user reviews Linda n

70
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:06,520
I think you can go wrong with this mouse

71
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,039
ergonomics are kind of a mess you guys are going to be feeding me some Labs

72
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:13,840
data for this right yes we' got information on accuracy precision and

73
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:20,000
latency oh good I'm just trying to click play and

74
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:22,600
this is already a disaster took me three

75
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:28,400
attempts I clicked CS2 and apparently we're going to play Tac FPS micro

76
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:30,690
Corrections easy V2 my favorite easy you

77
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,560
say

78
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:40,400
it just feels a little bit off though it actually doesn't feel that far off they

79
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:46,440
say that this is set at 500 DPI but what we measured was actually closer to the

80
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:48,440
standard 800 it was around 700 DPI so

81
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:54,639
you know it's uh explains why it feels a little off yeah just a little off

82
00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:57,000
481 that's fantastic considering that uh

83
00:05:54,639 --> 00:06:01,560
this Mouse has a deviation that's about three times worse than the cheapest

84
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,880
mouse that logic Tech makes ah I see so

85
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:07,440
that's the consistency with which your motion will

86
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:11,080
be interpreted should I try this with a Logitech mouse and see if I do any

87
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:16,560
better sure or give me give me give me a real razor do we have a real razor we

88
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:18,039
have the Death Adder which is nice very

89
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,759
similar to the essentials which is what will be our recommendation it's slightly

90
00:06:19,919 --> 00:06:25,840
better than the essential though I don't know why I'm doing this to myself

91
00:06:23,199 --> 00:06:29,680
because realistically oh God this is not going to be any better oh my God it's

92
00:06:27,599 --> 00:06:35,880
definitely better what I say I got last time 480 I think yeah just about 480 I

93
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:41,199
believe okay to give you guys some idea

94
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:43,319
I am halfway through and I'm at 305 now

95
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:46,880
565 those Precision numbers are especially bad when you consider that

96
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:50,400
we're comparing to a bad Logitech mouse if we compare it to the 305 which is

97
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:55,160
kind of where they start getting pretty good uh it's a factor of about 25 times

98
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:02,599
worse but that but that doesn't mean every gaming

99
00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:07,280
mouse from the automotive shop is bad while we were in line we also picked up

100
00:07:04,759 --> 00:07:14,000
this Tech Theory gaming pack that promises to make you the gamer you

101
00:07:09,919 --> 00:07:16,759
always wanted to be and oh my God I

102
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:22,039
think it's actually working any who the reason I bring this

103
00:07:19,319 --> 00:07:28,039
up is that the mouse is actually pretty interesting and look it even comes with

104
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,039
a bonus LED light

105
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:34,960
strip the kind of left me to my own devices on this one here's the LED strip

106
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:39,080
it does have an IR receiver can use with remote control but it doesn't include a

107
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:42,759
remote so I guess I hope you like this as for the mouse there's not much in

108
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:51,080
terms of specs we got the cable length which uh seems to be over reported by 10

109
00:07:46,879 --> 00:07:55,800
cm which my wife tells me is a lot and

110
00:07:51,080 --> 00:08:00,919
then the outer diameter sure 2.6 it's

111
00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:04,879
RGB with a USC interface they mean USBC

112
00:08:00,919 --> 00:08:08,919
nope it's type A maybe it was a type O

113
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:11,440
oh hey okay no but what is helpful is

114
00:08:08,919 --> 00:08:15,759
they actually indicate the sensor part number which gives us some unusual

115
00:08:13,319 --> 00:08:22,080
insight into the costs of these bargain Isle peripherals a quick Google search

116
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:24,599
later indicates that it is 11 cents I

117
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:31,440
cannot wait to try this one you want to know how much that box costs the Box um

118
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:33,680
sure do how do you know online 100 bucks

119
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:37,279
we got it for 40 so we got for a discount it's one of those products that

120
00:08:35,159 --> 00:08:43,320
I think the the price that's reported online isn't the real one but uh even 40

121
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:46,800
is that not the cheapest feeling Mouse you've ever held in your hand it's

122
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:51,240
definitely cheaper feeling but the movement doesn't feel much worse than

123
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:57,279
the dart frog maybe it's just the weight it's a lot easier to move cuz it weighs

124
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:59,640
nothing yeah we tested it against the

125
00:08:57,279 --> 00:09:05,360
dart frog and it's about seven times less precise that's bad cuz the dart

126
00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:07,720
frog is already horrible uh and so uh

127
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:13,399
maybe the lus does counteract the in preciseness of it numbers don't lie dude

128
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:17,200
I am smack in between the dart frog and the razor that might be that in spite of

129
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:23,480
its Precision issues it's actually closer to the standard 800 DPI right or

130
00:09:20,959 --> 00:09:28,560
it's super light which makes it feel cheap but is also an advantage when

131
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:31,040
you're making micro adjustments but hey

132
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:35,680
that's just a theory too soon yeah sorry I miss him too I

133
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:39,839
think it's time to move on to our darkart frog keyboard the very real user

134
00:09:37,959 --> 00:09:43,920
reviews for this one include this gem from Margaret it lights up making the

135
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:49,000
gaming more entertaining all right I personally find

136
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:52,680
that this RGB strip contributes more to my typing of the Dead experience than

137
00:09:50,519 --> 00:09:56,800
the lights on my keyboard but you do you Margaret did you guys bring a real

138
00:09:54,920 --> 00:10:01,079
keyboard for me to try as well or I was just thinking about that we have the

139
00:09:58,399 --> 00:10:04,640
razor membrane one but it might be nice to have like an actual mechanical

140
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:08,360
keyboard look how much Flex there is in this thing it's part of the feature it's

141
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:12,680
ergonomic this is unbelievable surprising to me the

142
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:17,440
latency on both the dart frog and the tech theory was actually lower than

143
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:19,800
similarly priced razor and Logitech

144
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:22,440
accessories but it's all within a factor of a few milliseconds so it's all kind

145
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:29,600
of bad you're doing good Zombie's dying

146
00:10:25,959 --> 00:10:29,600
he's really concentrating

147
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:37,079
I love how uh called

148
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:40,920
out redditors are in

149
00:10:37,079 --> 00:10:44,519
this is monkey type their

150
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,519
thing it's more the

151
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,200
words like Eat the Rich like no that

152
00:10:48,639 --> 00:10:54,079
wasn't in there but that that kind of stuff just like typical redditor you

153
00:10:51,839 --> 00:10:59,639
know oh I love it um do you want to try the same thing on a good keyboard yeah

154
00:10:55,959 --> 00:11:01,160
let's do that at least a decent one oo

155
00:10:59,639 --> 00:11:05,600
hey at least I can feel where the home row is that's a plus yeah Karma bites

156
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:09,480
see that's what I'm talking about orwellian so

157
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:14,399
tired nothing I not a very focused person I

158
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:20,240
find this actually very difficult to do but I think that was better oh yeah like

159
00:11:16,519 --> 00:11:23,040
20% better so a better keyboard is

160
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:27,079
better riveting next it calls for me to test out the speakers but uh Jordan yeah

161
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:31,240
you were saying they weren't plugged in but they show up as USB speakers

162
00:11:32,079 --> 00:11:42,760
wow yeah that's a speaker right that's terrible you know what for 11

163
00:11:38,079 --> 00:11:46,200
bucks fine sure they got RGB let's win

164
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:48,839
this match here we go Team Cobra incom

165
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:54,320
oh my God this mouse is so bad I didn't realize how bad it was it's so bad did

166
00:11:52,519 --> 00:12:01,680
you see it just lose tracking there yeah yeah do a big swing no I can't I can't

167
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:03,920
look at this are you see this wow okay

168
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:08,440
wait was that in the lab's results that it can't no that the max tracking speed

169
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:14,120
is like zero you know what the lonus vibe is

170
00:12:11,839 --> 00:12:21,000
still a valid measure dude can I have that lightweight one the other crappy

171
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,320
one oh my God this one's almost as bad

172
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:29,680
just completely loses it I can't turn

173
00:12:27,399 --> 00:12:34,480
around no okay you want to you want to try the

174
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:37,440
cheap Logitech one just just to see it's

175
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:41,760
going to be bad too it's just as bad way better oh it's way better it's bad yeah

176
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:47,240
but it's way better like it still it still does lose tracking sometimes but

177
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:50,639
oh no it's really bad you know what the

178
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:53,600
speakers are far from my biggest problem

179
00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:57,199
they seem pretty fine other than that I assume the one with the label would be

180
00:12:55,320 --> 00:13:00,560
the right channel I think it's actually the left I would do anything to stop

181
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:05,320
using this mouse right now well you're in luck we have the cheapest peripheral

182
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:07,920
of the entire day ready for you lonus oh

183
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:15,040
good wireless mouse d09 this is really laggy like you said but it just outright

184
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:17,079
loses my tracking far less often still

185
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:21,880
not great but actually usable a little more on that later for now let's go back

186
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:25,079
to the speakers where come on you guys all knew this was

187
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:30,839
coming what is it I can't even do it like the the peanuts thing oh yeah yeah

188
00:13:30,839 --> 00:13:37,320
you know given my expectations not bad for $11 like I'm

189
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:43,120
sitting I was going into this thinking I'm I'm going be like King Hamlet

190
00:13:40,279 --> 00:13:49,000
what frogs and poison like poison in the ears from the

191
00:13:45,839 --> 00:13:50,680
ah what you want current pop culture

192
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:55,639
references come on something to keep in mind in all of

193
00:13:53,320 --> 00:14:01,959
this is at the prices we paid for these peripherals it's not that easy to find

194
00:13:58,759 --> 00:14:04,839
better products I mean a Big Mac meal at

195
00:14:01,959 --> 00:14:10,399
McDonald's costs more than this mouse in most of America but don't mistake that

196
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:16,279
for a recommendation for the mouse or actually the burger for that matter it's

197
00:14:12,759 --> 00:14:18,480
not products like this suck and in my

198
00:14:16,279 --> 00:14:24,440
opinion they just shouldn't even be made to be clear I also have no problem with

199
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:29,639
budget peripherals the speakers totally usable and the Eastern times mouse that

200
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:34,360
I highlighted earlier which was also at the auto store in spite of its supremely

201
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:40,519
generic packaging and underwhelming product specs actually performed

202
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:43,800
decently well for what it is a doublea

203
00:14:40,519 --> 00:14:46,759
powered Wireless utility Mouse and it's

204
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:53,199
just $9 which illustrates why I find dart frogs offerings especially this

205
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:56,680
mouse so offensive they don't need to be

206
00:14:53,199 --> 00:14:58,320
this bad maybe a 12 cent sensor and

207
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:02,399
another nickel in Plastics could have been all the UPG upgrade that it needed

208
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:06,399
to be usable of course my real recommendation is to wait for your next

209
00:15:04,639 --> 00:15:09,160
payday and pick up something from a brand that is likely to still exist by

210
00:15:08,199 --> 00:15:14,079
the time you make it through the checkout you know just in case you need

211
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:17,959
warranty support at the msrps of the products that we looked at today there

212
00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:23,759
are some very decent options the Razer Death Adder essential or the Logitech

213
00:15:19,959 --> 00:15:26,000
203 are both available for about $30 and

214
00:15:23,759 --> 00:15:29,839
both of them are much better than any of the mice that we just looked at in terms

215
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:33,079
of keyboards I know we've MD on red dragon in the past but they've uped

216
00:15:31,399 --> 00:15:37,240
their game and they now make pretty decent mechanical hot swappable

217
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:40,440
keyboards for less than 40 bucks we're going to have links to our suggestions

218
00:15:38,519 --> 00:15:44,959
in the video description because in our opinion the premium is well worth it for

219
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:48,800
something that you might be touching for hours a day and don't forget guys that

220
00:15:47,279 --> 00:15:53,639
if that's not an option for you because you're on a tight budget secondhand is a

221
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:57,759
great way to go just remember to test everything you buy before you walk away

222
