WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:08.599
quick look at this and this and this and this did you notice anything only the

00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:10.240
last one was made by Razer here let me

00:00:08.599 --> 00:00:16.960
slow it down this and this that's no snake it's

00:00:13.799 --> 00:00:19.240
a frog and it also shows up here on the

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:23.519
sick custom hang tag and the shade of green that ain't quite right either but

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:27.400
don't feel bad when we first spotted these green and blackbox products next

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

00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:35.920
store we're only 32 seconds into this

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

00:00:38.280 --> 00:00:45.719
clear my calendar these uh screwdriver sharp

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:50.800
gaming peripherals are branded dart frog but they're actually manufactured by CJ

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

00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:13.479
have made some pretty big brand deals good for them frankly I didn't realize

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:19.320
the US Army was so into merchandising now drop down and give me 20 Segways to

00:01:37.759 --> 00:01:44.119
packaging is clearly designed to piggyback on Razor's hard-earned

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:47.079
reputation but being a knockoff isn't

00:01:44.119 --> 00:01:51.600
necessarily a knock against a product as long as the price is right and for what

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:57.600
we paid for the dartfrog m307 laser gaming mouse 11 Freedom dollar we're

00:01:54.479 --> 00:01:59.200
prepared to overlook a few Wards the

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:04.159
packaging feels more premium than some real razor products and the specs

00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:10.160
honestly kind of appealing adjustable DPI at four levels 500 1200 1600 and

00:02:07.399 --> 00:02:15.280
2400 why 500 not the standard 800 I don't know ergonomic design color

00:02:12.959 --> 00:02:19.519
changing light seven lights or seven colors um we don't know we'll figure

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

00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:26.360
ergonomics it is not that dissimilar to

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:31.360
comparables from Brands like Razer and Logitech to be clear there are some

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

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:41.800
oh this if it works anywhere near as

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

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

00:02:50.239 --> 00:02:56.080
keyboard for $22 I don't know about you guys but I

00:02:54.080 --> 00:03:01.519
love it when the key specs on a product have no formatting and zero punctuation

00:02:58.519 --> 00:03:04.200
sorry I mean when they're romatic metal

00:03:01.519 --> 00:03:10.799
design anti- ghosting USB plug and play specifications colon RGB LED backlight

00:03:07.799 --> 00:03:14.000
5ft cable usba interface anti-

00:03:10.799 --> 00:03:17.680
ghosting sounds promising to

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:21.239
me looks less

00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:24.360
promising feels even less promising In

00:03:21.239 --> 00:03:26.280
fairness there is metal involved however

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

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:37.879
some of these other specs I just have no idea what they're talking about seven

00:03:34.959 --> 00:03:42.439
keys shortcuts 12 buttons what is that even mean and why is there an Internet

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.680
Explorer shortcut I guess you need it if you want to be compatible with Windows

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

00:03:48.519 --> 00:03:54.319
line somewhere though this will go perfectly with my mouse and look an

00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:59.799
integrated phone holder to round out our amphibious

00:03:56.920 --> 00:04:06.879
gaming setup we've got the dartfrog S14 two computer gaming speakers with RGB

00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:09.200
LED lights for $11 they feature 3 wat 2

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

00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:19.479
response down to 25 HZ strong doubt HD

00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:21.239
quality sound oh boy these guys I think

00:04:19.479 --> 00:04:24.759
probably their best feature looking at them is going to be that they make my

00:04:22.479 --> 00:04:31.720
hands look huge what does separation plusus 40 DB

00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:35.520
mean yeah the lack of an indicator for which

00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:39.960
is the right and which is the Left Channel not to mention the USB power I

00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:44.360
think tells me everything I need to know about the performance of these

00:04:41.880 --> 00:04:50.400
speakers they do look kind of pretty though and look at that built-in volume

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:53.120
dial is it just me or does that seem to suggest that these were headphones at

00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:59.000
some point oh wow I am immediately doubting

00:04:56.320 --> 00:05:04.000
some of these very real user reviews Linda n

00:05:00.840 --> 00:05:06.520
I think you can go wrong with this mouse

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.039
ergonomics are kind of a mess you guys are going to be feeding me some Labs

00:05:07.840 --> 00:05:13.840
data for this right yes we' got information on accuracy precision and

00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:20.000
latency oh good I'm just trying to click play and

00:05:16.440 --> 00:05:22.600
this is already a disaster took me three

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:28.400
attempts I clicked CS2 and apparently we're going to play Tac FPS micro

00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:30.690
Corrections easy V2 my favorite easy you

00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:32.560
say

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

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

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:48.440
standard 800 it was around 700 DPI so

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

00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:57.000
481 that's fantastic considering that uh

00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:01.560
this Mouse has a deviation that's about three times worse than the cheapest

00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:02.880
mouse that logic Tech makes ah I see so

00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:07.440
that's the consistency with which your motion will

00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:11.080
be interpreted should I try this with a Logitech mouse and see if I do any

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

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:18.039
have the Death Adder which is nice very

00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:21.759
similar to the essentials which is what will be our recommendation it's slightly

00:06:19.919 --> 00:06:25.840
better than the essential though I don't know why I'm doing this to myself

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

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

00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:41.199
believe okay to give you guys some idea

00:06:35.880 --> 00:06:43.319
I am halfway through and I'm at 305 now

00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:46.880
565 those Precision numbers are especially bad when you consider that

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

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

00:06:55.400 --> 00:07:02.599
worse but that but that doesn't mean every gaming

00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:07.280
mouse from the automotive shop is bad while we were in line we also picked up

00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:14.000
this Tech Theory gaming pack that promises to make you the gamer you

00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:16.759
always wanted to be and oh my God I

00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:22.039
think it's actually working any who the reason I bring this

00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:28.039
up is that the mouse is actually pretty interesting and look it even comes with

00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.039
a bonus LED light

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

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

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

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

00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:55.800
cm which my wife tells me is a lot and

00:07:51.080 --> 00:08:00.919
then the outer diameter sure 2.6 it's

00:07:55.800 --> 00:08:04.879
RGB with a USC interface they mean USBC

00:08:00.919 --> 00:08:08.919
nope it's type A maybe it was a type O

00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:11.440
oh hey okay no but what is helpful is

00:08:08.919 --> 00:08:15.759
they actually indicate the sensor part number which gives us some unusual

00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:22.080
insight into the costs of these bargain Isle peripherals a quick Google search

00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:24.599
later indicates that it is 11 cents I

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

00:08:27.960 --> 00:08:33.680
sure do how do you know online 100 bucks

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

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

00:08:40.880 --> 00:08:46.800
is that not the cheapest feeling Mouse you've ever held in your hand it's

00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:51.240
definitely cheaper feeling but the movement doesn't feel much worse than

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

00:08:54.040 --> 00:08:59.640
nothing yeah we tested it against the

00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:05.360
dart frog and it's about seven times less precise that's bad cuz the dart

00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:07.720
frog is already horrible uh and so uh

00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:13.399
maybe the lus does counteract the in preciseness of it numbers don't lie dude

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

00:09:15.640 --> 00:09:23.480
its Precision issues it's actually closer to the standard 800 DPI right or

00:09:20.959 --> 00:09:28.560
it's super light which makes it feel cheap but is also an advantage when

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:31.040
you're making micro adjustments but hey

00:09:28.560 --> 00:09:35.680
that's just a theory too soon yeah sorry I miss him too I

00:09:34.640 --> 00:09:39.839
think it's time to move on to our darkart frog keyboard the very real user

00:09:37.959 --> 00:09:43.920
reviews for this one include this gem from Margaret it lights up making the

00:09:42.160 --> 00:09:49.000
gaming more entertaining all right I personally find

00:09:46.800 --> 00:09:52.680
that this RGB strip contributes more to my typing of the Dead experience than

00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:56.800
the lights on my keyboard but you do you Margaret did you guys bring a real

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

00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:04.640
razor membrane one but it might be nice to have like an actual mechanical

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

00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:12.680
ergonomic this is unbelievable surprising to me the

00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:17.440
latency on both the dart frog and the tech theory was actually lower than

00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:19.800
similarly priced razor and Logitech

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

00:10:21.640 --> 00:10:29.600
of bad you're doing good Zombie's dying

00:10:25.959 --> 00:10:29.600
he's really concentrating

00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:37.079
I love how uh called

00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:40.920
out redditors are in

00:10:37.079 --> 00:10:44.519
this is monkey type their

00:10:40.920 --> 00:10:44.519
thing it's more the

00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:50.200
words like Eat the Rich like no that

00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:54.079
wasn't in there but that that kind of stuff just like typical redditor you

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

00:10:55.959 --> 00:11:01.160
let's do that at least a decent one oo

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

00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:09.480
see that's what I'm talking about orwellian so

00:11:07.760 --> 00:11:14.399
tired nothing I not a very focused person I

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:20.240
find this actually very difficult to do but I think that was better oh yeah like

00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:23.040
20% better so a better keyboard is

00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:27.079
better riveting next it calls for me to test out the speakers but uh Jordan yeah

00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:31.240
you were saying they weren't plugged in but they show up as USB speakers

00:11:32.079 --> 00:11:42.760
wow yeah that's a speaker right that's terrible you know what for 11

00:11:38.079 --> 00:11:46.200
bucks fine sure they got RGB let's win

00:11:42.760 --> 00:11:48.839
this match here we go Team Cobra incom

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

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

00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:03.920
look at this are you see this wow okay

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

00:12:06.760 --> 00:12:14.120
is like zero you know what the lonus vibe is

00:12:11.839 --> 00:12:21.000
still a valid measure dude can I have that lightweight one the other crappy

00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:22.320
one oh my God this one's almost as bad

00:12:21.000 --> 00:12:29.680
just completely loses it I can't turn

00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:34.480
around no okay you want to you want to try the

00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:37.440
cheap Logitech one just just to see it's

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

00:12:39.560 --> 00:12:47.240
but it's way better like it still it still does lose tracking sometimes but

00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:50.639
oh no it's really bad you know what the

00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:53.600
speakers are far from my biggest problem

00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:57.199
they seem pretty fine other than that I assume the one with the label would be

00:12:55.320 --> 00:13:00.560
the right channel I think it's actually the left I would do anything to stop

00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:05.320
using this mouse right now well you're in luck we have the cheapest peripheral

00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:07.920
of the entire day ready for you lonus oh

00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:15.040
good wireless mouse d09 this is really laggy like you said but it just outright

00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:17.079
loses my tracking far less often still

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

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:25.079
to the speakers where come on you guys all knew this was

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

00:13:30.839 --> 00:13:37.320
you know given my expectations not bad for $11 like I'm

00:13:35.880 --> 00:13:43.120
sitting I was going into this thinking I'm I'm going be like King Hamlet

00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:49.000
what frogs and poison like poison in the ears from the

00:13:45.839 --> 00:13:50.680
ah what you want current pop culture

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:55.639
references come on something to keep in mind in all of

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

00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:04.839
better products I mean a Big Mac meal at

00:14:01.959 --> 00:14:10.399
McDonald's costs more than this mouse in most of America but don't mistake that

00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:16.279
for a recommendation for the mouse or actually the burger for that matter it's

00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:18.480
not products like this suck and in my

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

00:14:21.560 --> 00:14:29.639
budget peripherals the speakers totally usable and the Eastern times mouse that

00:14:27.199 --> 00:14:34.360
I highlighted earlier which was also at the auto store in spite of its supremely

00:14:32.440 --> 00:14:40.519
generic packaging and underwhelming product specs actually performed

00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:43.800
decently well for what it is a doublea

00:14:40.519 --> 00:14:46.759
powered Wireless utility Mouse and it's

00:14:43.800 --> 00:14:53.199
just $9 which illustrates why I find dart frogs offerings especially this

00:14:49.160 --> 00:14:56.680
mouse so offensive they don't need to be

00:14:53.199 --> 00:14:58.320
this bad maybe a 12 cent sensor and

00:14:56.680 --> 00:15:02.399
another nickel in Plastics could have been all the UPG upgrade that it needed

00:14:59.680 --> 00:15:06.399
to be usable of course my real recommendation is to wait for your next

00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:09.160
payday and pick up something from a brand that is likely to still exist by

00:15:08.199 --> 00:15:14.079
the time you make it through the checkout you know just in case you need

00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:17.959
warranty support at the msrps of the products that we looked at today there

00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:23.759
are some very decent options the Razer Death Adder essential or the Logitech

00:15:19.959 --> 00:15:26.000
203 are both available for about $30 and

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

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

00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:37.240
their game and they now make pretty decent mechanical hot swappable

00:15:34.800 --> 00:15:40.440
keyboards for less than 40 bucks we're going to have links to our suggestions

00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:44.959
in the video description because in our opinion the premium is well worth it for

00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.800
something that you might be touching for hours a day and don't forget guys that

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

00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:57.759
great way to go just remember to test everything you buy before you walk away

00:15:56.160 --> 00:16:03.560
