00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:13.679
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the steel series free which contrary to

00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:19.359
what you might believe having heard the name of the product costs money not very

00:00:17.240 --> 00:00:25.160
much money mind you it's not super expensive but it is super Freedom

00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:29.039
enhancing which is I think what they were going for with the name but what it

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:36.600
sounds like is that it doesn't cost anything so there it is tiny little game

00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:38.879
controller which has huge huge

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:42.680
functionality especially once we get into a little bit more about it and you

00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:45.760
guys understand what's going on here so first things first we've got a quick

00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:48.800
start guide which is thick they should call it a thick start

00:00:49.239 --> 00:00:54.879
guide yeah all right how to configure

00:00:52.760 --> 00:01:01.840
your free on different devices carrying pouch USB cable quick start guide

00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:06.040
Android iOS including iPhones iPads

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:10.320
iPods uh PC Mac general information

00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:12.159
pairing mode buttons end of English so

00:01:10.320 --> 00:01:16.640
what you guys may have figured out based on that is that there's a steel series

00:01:14.360 --> 00:01:21.040
sticker inside as well as a little Guide to the free product family and the flux

00:01:19.119 --> 00:01:25.119
product family which I also have here which is some pretty sweet baller

00:01:22.759 --> 00:01:29.200
looking headphones um what you may have figured out is that this is pretty much

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:33.799
universally compatible with any number of different plat forms and it is for

00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:39.360
playing games now the first thing that came to mind for me is holy crap I have

00:01:36.399 --> 00:01:44.680
a Bluetooth controller that is portable and wireless and convenient and I can

00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:50.159
use it to play like SNES games on an emulator on my Android tablet holy

00:01:47.479 --> 00:01:54.640
freaking crap of course that's not what we're supposed to use it for because

00:01:51.920 --> 00:02:01.200
nobody has any SNES games on their tablet on an emulator because that is

00:01:57.479 --> 00:02:04.360
not what you do no

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:05.799
you're playing other games however if

00:02:04.360 --> 00:02:09.640
you have other games it'll work with that too so you got a pretty bog

00:02:07.759 --> 00:02:13.160
standard configuration it's perfect for SNES games although you won't be playing

00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:21.319
those with a left and right shoulder button a d-pad start and I mean A and B

00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:23.480
as well as uh oh no yeah sorry sorry ABX

00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:27.720
uh sorry 1 two 3 4 those are the other buttons however you got a couple of

00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:31.519
analog sticks which actually they're a little stiff but

00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:35.840
they'll probably loosen up in time they feel pretty good not bad considering

00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:40.480
again the cost of the controller and the size um so you got a couple analog

00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:43.720
sticks in case you want to use those for you know other games that you're not

00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:49.120
playing on an SNES I mean you're not playing any games on this joke's old um

00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:53.440
so charging you get about 10 hours of intense gaming with the device uh when

00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:57.840
it's got a full charge and around 20 plus hours of casual gaming where you're

00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:01.760
sort of using it uh sometimes and then not using it other times and I don't

00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:07.159
know what he's pointing at I don't know what he's pointing at por slick C cable

00:03:04.959 --> 00:03:10.879
length oh cable length oh he wants to no the cable doesn't matter the cable's

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:16.120
just for charging charge it and play it on your computer sometime well yeah you

00:03:12.519 --> 00:03:19.280
could but that Bluetooth anyway so it's

00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:21.519
cordless but slick wants okay fine it's

00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:27.440
this long it is one Linus ARM length and one Linus chest width

00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:30.840
long and other than that I guess let's just look sort of closely at it and how

00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:36.040
awesome it is is and how small it is oh you know what this might be kind of funny so this is it next to my hands so

00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:41.680
you can see that I will have no difficulty using this now I'm going to go ahead and take the camera from slick

00:03:38.959 --> 00:03:47.319
and I'd like him to hold it in his hands so if you are a large person like slick

00:03:44.959 --> 00:03:52.400
who's basically a giant it might not be perfect for you I hope they come out

00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:57.000
with like a free XL or like uh you know free something and it's a little bit

00:03:54.280 --> 00:04:03.000
bigger but for now this is perfect for girls children and men with girly hands

00:04:01.480 --> 00:04:07.239
