1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000 I remember when the concept of streaming games wirelessly 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,040 to a handheld device was kind of a wacky idea 3 00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:13,720 and it was kind of made fun of by both people in the PC and the console community 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,280 as something that's like, why would you wanna do that? There's gonna be latency, 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,320 there's gonna be degraded visuals and all that. 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,760 But now there's all sorts of different handheld devices 7 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,580 like the Peek-Doh, 8 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,880 what's it called? It's called the Peek-Doh 7-inch MMWave 9 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,400 streaming handheld game device. Say that five times. 10 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:42,920 And this device specifically is, as it sounds like, a handheld gaming device 11 00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:46,480 with no actual computer inside of itself. 12 00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:50,440 It's got controllers for its wireless receiver and it's got a display, 13 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:55,440 but it's meant only to stream games from other devices. 14 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:01,640 So that's whether that be PC or console. I'm excited for this because I have been recently using 15 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,640 my Ion Neo Pro 2021 retro power, 16 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,520 I think is what it's called. I wanted out of the LMG Christmas party. 17 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:16,460 What a great company. And it actually has a Ryzen 50 800 or 4800 U in it, 18 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,020 I forget. You can run games locally on it, but you can also stream games to it. 19 00:01:21,020 --> 00:01:24,360 And I've been using it for that quite a bit. So I'm excited to check this out. 20 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,480 This device comes with a dongle, which is in here, I'm assuming. 21 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,920 That's a power adapter. It comes with this HDMI dongle, 22 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:39,280 which you plug into the HDMI output of whatever. 23 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,240 It will stream directly 60 gigahertz millimeter wave 24 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,360 wireless spectrum to this device. Let's take a look at the device itself. 25 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,920 It is, you know, vaguely switched like. 26 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:55,360 It's got some vents on the top here and slideable controllers. 27 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,640 I believe that they slide off in the same way that Joy-Cons do. 28 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,560 So it's a little bigger than a switch. I believe that this is a seven inch display. 29 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,200 I believe they said that the side rails are compatible with Joy-Cons. 30 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,560 We're gonna confirm that right here. Oh, look at that. On the top, we have a power button. 31 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,240 We have a check mark button that I'm not sure what that does. Maybe we'll find out later. 32 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,520 A plus and minus button, probably volume. 33 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:24,880 We've got a headphone jack, very nice. And a USB-C port that looks like it's probably power. 34 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,360 On the back, is this something? I don't know. 35 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,160 We've got the rails for the controllers, as I mentioned, on the bottom speakers, I guess, 36 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,460 two speakers on either side. I haven't seen another variant of the controllers 37 00:02:37,460 --> 00:02:43,420 other than this like kind of retro, you know, see-through design, which is fricking sweet. 38 00:02:43,420 --> 00:02:45,520 Let's slide them on here and see how it feels. 39 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,260 We got our joy sticks. We got our ABXY, just like the switch. 40 00:02:52,260 --> 00:02:57,620 We got a plus and minus button here, just like the switch. D-pad, a T button. 41 00:02:57,620 --> 00:03:00,720 Oh, turns out the check mark button on the top 42 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,140 is a enter slash menu button. 43 00:03:04,140 --> 00:03:08,060 There's another button there. I mean, it's a circle in a square. 44 00:03:08,060 --> 00:03:12,060 Over here, we got a home, a house home button, 45 00:03:12,060 --> 00:03:16,140 and oh, another T button. And then, of course, we got the bumpers and the triggers. 46 00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:19,940 Okay, what else is in the package? 47 00:03:19,940 --> 00:03:23,020 We got a USB power adapter, USB-C power adapter. 48 00:03:24,260 --> 00:03:29,260 Okay, we have a USB-C cord, five feet or so, 49 00:03:29,660 --> 00:03:33,060 using my objective measure. We don't need the lab. 50 00:03:33,060 --> 00:03:36,260 And there are USB-C ports on the bottom 51 00:03:36,260 --> 00:03:40,220 of each one of the controllers, I guess, to charge. 52 00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:44,560 There's no physical connector on the rail because, as we'll see in a moment, 53 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,620 these controllers actually don't connect to this thing. 54 00:03:48,620 --> 00:03:55,740 They connect to the thing that's playing the game. We'll get into it. We also have a USB-A dongle, 55 00:03:55,740 --> 00:04:00,580 which is the Bluetooth adapter for the controller. 56 00:04:00,580 --> 00:04:03,700 Next up, we have the HDMI dongle. 57 00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:07,620 We got the HDMI connector here. We got a five-volt USB-C connector. 58 00:04:07,620 --> 00:04:12,940 I believe that is for the USB-A cable that's going to also go into the system. 59 00:04:12,940 --> 00:04:17,340 We'll find out. There's a button on the back, which I guess is for pairing, maybe. 60 00:04:17,380 --> 00:04:22,140 And then we have the USB-A to USB-C power cable. 61 00:04:22,140 --> 00:04:26,140 The device also comes with a screen protector, and this patch is the thing that helps you 62 00:04:26,140 --> 00:04:29,940 install the screen protector without having lint and crap and bubbles on your screen. 63 00:04:29,940 --> 00:04:33,620 Speaking of which, I haven't peeled the thing that I'm supposed to peel off this, 64 00:04:33,620 --> 00:04:36,300 so we're all learning things today. 65 00:04:39,020 --> 00:04:42,860 Also, I didn't even mention, it's nice that it comes with this, it's like travel case, 66 00:04:42,860 --> 00:04:46,740 and with a zipper pocket and everything, and a doohickey to hold things in place. 67 00:04:47,540 --> 00:04:51,460 Delicious. Real quick, let's find out how much it weighs. 68 00:04:51,460 --> 00:04:57,500 558 grams. Yeah, they say it's 380 grams without the controllers. 69 00:04:58,420 --> 00:05:01,500 423. HDMI. 70 00:05:01,500 --> 00:05:05,300 Uh-oh, are we gonna, is it gonna fit next to the power adapter? 71 00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:09,820 Yes. The USB-C goes here, 72 00:05:10,780 --> 00:05:15,020 and then the A-end goes into an A port, 73 00:05:15,020 --> 00:05:19,220 USB-A port. Setting up a device. Something's happening. 74 00:05:19,220 --> 00:05:23,540 Multi-touch V5000 is ready to go. 75 00:05:23,540 --> 00:05:28,180 Is this the pairing button, or? If that's a button, it is not really responding. 76 00:05:28,180 --> 00:05:32,660 First, let's try turning this thing on. Oh, it's already transmitting. 77 00:05:32,660 --> 00:05:36,700 I didn't even have to do anything else, although this is not right. 78 00:05:36,700 --> 00:05:39,980 Because this is the same tech used by 5G, 79 00:05:39,980 --> 00:05:46,660 you know, millimeter wave wireless spectrum, it basically needs line of sight to the transmitter. 80 00:05:46,660 --> 00:05:50,860 So even this situation where we had the laptop here, 81 00:05:50,860 --> 00:05:54,620 there's the transmitter, and I put this down with the controllers, 82 00:05:54,620 --> 00:05:58,100 I had it resting on the table like that, it'll break. 83 00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:03,100 However, if you hold it in an orientation where the antenna basically line of sight 84 00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:07,900 with the peak-dough logo on the transmitter, that's where the antenna is in the HDMI dongle. 85 00:06:07,900 --> 00:06:10,980 Then, Bob's your uncle. It is very responsive, 86 00:06:10,980 --> 00:06:15,300 which is the whole reason why you wanna use a product like this, is this ultra-low latency. 87 00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:20,300 When you use cloud streaming, you can take a streaming device into another room, 88 00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:23,780 lay on your bed, and play your games. You can't do this with this 89 00:06:23,780 --> 00:06:27,420 unless your PC will be in line of sight, so. 90 00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:31,420 The next step of the process is connecting the controllers. 91 00:06:33,260 --> 00:06:36,400 These are connected to the PC. Slide them in. 92 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:42,820 Oh, I just covered the antenna, it's gone. Oh, touch control works. 93 00:06:42,820 --> 00:06:45,940 The USB cable that's plugged into the wireless transmitter 94 00:06:45,940 --> 00:06:49,460 here is not just to power the HDMI transmitter, 95 00:06:49,460 --> 00:06:53,620 I can send touch control information through the HDMI, 96 00:06:53,620 --> 00:06:56,660 which then gets sent to the, well, to the dongle, 97 00:06:56,660 --> 00:07:01,700 which gets sent into the PC via the USB. Here we are in the game. 98 00:07:01,700 --> 00:07:05,340 I got line of sight and the Joy-Cons are working. 99 00:07:05,380 --> 00:07:09,980 This is 1920 by 1200 here, and this is 1920 by 1080. 100 00:07:09,980 --> 00:07:13,820 So we got some black bars on the side here. I'm sure we could like, you know, 101 00:07:13,820 --> 00:07:16,820 have the black bars here instead of here if we want to, 102 00:07:16,820 --> 00:07:22,180 but you know, I'm just happy to be here. Also this yellow border is because we're screen recording 103 00:07:22,180 --> 00:07:26,300 the laptop with OBS. Obviously with any wireless streaming solution, 104 00:07:26,300 --> 00:07:30,380 you're going to have like a little bit of latency, but I'm actually, you know, 105 00:07:30,380 --> 00:07:33,580 I'm a little disappointed to see that the latency 106 00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:39,780 between me moving the controller and seeing how that changes is, it's very noticeable. 107 00:07:39,780 --> 00:07:45,020 The reason why there might be this latency still, despite using this fancy, fancy 60 Hertz millimeter wave tech, 108 00:07:45,020 --> 00:07:48,820 is because these are regular Bluetooth connection for the controllers, which is going to the computer, 109 00:07:48,820 --> 00:07:51,860 and then it's sending that information back over the 60 Hertz connection. 110 00:07:51,860 --> 00:07:55,380 I can verify that that is why, I think, 111 00:07:55,380 --> 00:07:58,500 because when I use the trackpad, it's almost one to one. 112 00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:04,580 There's almost no latency, see? If you connected a wired controller to your PC, 113 00:08:04,580 --> 00:08:07,660 you would have zero latency. If you had like a really long USB cord, maybe. 114 00:08:07,660 --> 00:08:10,780 Am I just not used to controller FPS? 115 00:08:10,780 --> 00:08:14,140 Like come try this. Just move your view back and forth 116 00:08:14,140 --> 00:08:17,460 and like tell me if that's normal. This feels totally fine. 117 00:08:17,460 --> 00:08:20,540 Does it feel like I'm at a disadvantage or like my input is not real? 118 00:08:20,540 --> 00:08:25,660 I feel like I'm at a disadvantage. I feel like this is totally what gaming feels like. 119 00:08:25,660 --> 00:08:29,740 Okay, so to Jake's point, I don't usually play with wireless controllers. 120 00:08:29,740 --> 00:08:33,020 Now, I will say as someone who regularly plays games 121 00:08:33,020 --> 00:08:40,460 streaming, I beat all of Jedi Survivor just streaming from my work PC to my I and EO. 122 00:08:40,460 --> 00:08:43,860 I will say that this latency is more than acceptable. 123 00:08:43,860 --> 00:08:48,780 Like it's super playable. I could easily play this entire game 124 00:08:48,780 --> 00:08:53,820 with this amount of latency. It is just given the claims made by this product. 125 00:08:53,820 --> 00:08:57,540 You say you have zero latency, I'm gonna give you a bit of a hard time. Is that okay? 126 00:08:57,540 --> 00:09:01,460 Geez. What? Oh, it's a decoy. 127 00:09:01,460 --> 00:09:07,340 It's been so long since I played this game. So as I'm dying here, everything looks nice and sharp. 128 00:09:07,340 --> 00:09:12,100 There's a 1080p display, 60 Hertz. And it doesn't seem to have any trouble, you know, 129 00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:15,580 transmitting. I'm not seeing almost zero visual artifacts. 130 00:09:15,580 --> 00:09:20,340 So like the quality of, you know, the streaming experience here is great. 131 00:09:20,340 --> 00:09:23,860 This device cannot just be used with PC. You can use it with consoles 132 00:09:23,860 --> 00:09:28,460 or basically anything that has an HDMI port. It's a wireless display. 133 00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:32,220 You can stream your console games. And we have a switch here. 134 00:09:32,220 --> 00:09:36,060 I'm gonna try it out real quick. So it's plugged in. It's powered by the USB cord. 135 00:09:36,060 --> 00:09:40,620 And we're getting a image on the display. 136 00:09:40,620 --> 00:09:45,700 As I said earlier, these rails are actually compatible with the Joy-Cons. 137 00:09:45,700 --> 00:09:49,020 So you can just slide the Joy-Cons right onto this thing 138 00:09:49,020 --> 00:09:52,760 that also looks exactly like a switch. Why would you wanna do that? 139 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,340 Oh, because when the switch is plugged into the dock, it outputs full 1080p handheld. 140 00:09:57,380 --> 00:10:02,380 It's 720p only. How would you connect the controllers to your console? 141 00:10:02,380 --> 00:10:06,140 For the switch at least, you don't actually need the Bluetooth dongle. 142 00:10:06,140 --> 00:10:11,460 These will connect directly to the switch. I think because they have the Joy-Con hardware ID. 143 00:10:11,460 --> 00:10:15,900 Now I'm going to put them on the peak dough 144 00:10:15,900 --> 00:10:19,260 and I am now using it wirelessly 145 00:10:19,260 --> 00:10:21,300 with the third party controllers. 146 00:10:25,540 --> 00:10:29,260 Latencies over the Bluetooth connection with the controller seems about the same. 147 00:10:29,260 --> 00:10:33,180 We're playing audio over the speakers and just to see how they sound in it. 148 00:10:36,700 --> 00:10:40,580 It's not amazing. Ah, however, there is a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack. 149 00:10:40,580 --> 00:10:41,940 So you can use that instead. 150 00:10:44,060 --> 00:10:48,140 Oh, we countered. Wow. Well, the experience here is great. 151 00:10:48,140 --> 00:10:51,220 I wouldn't buy this specifically for switch stuff, 152 00:10:51,220 --> 00:10:55,940 but I mean, it's cool to see that you can do this whole like 1080p handheld thing. 153 00:10:55,980 --> 00:10:59,020 The seven inch version is $350. 154 00:10:59,020 --> 00:11:00,460 The 11 inch version. 155 00:11:07,300 --> 00:11:12,260 It is less bright. So this seven inch has a max brightness of 500 nits 156 00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:17,740 and the 11 inch has 300 nits. The question is, is $350 worth it 157 00:11:17,740 --> 00:11:21,700 for a device that doesn't have an internal processor? 158 00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:25,300 It has a lot of limitations. You have to connect your controllers 159 00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:30,020 to the device that you're streaming from instead of just having one solution. 160 00:11:30,020 --> 00:11:33,620 Another limitation is the fact that you have to be in line of sight. 161 00:11:33,620 --> 00:11:37,300 However, the latency, at least for the visuals streaming 162 00:11:37,300 --> 00:11:40,780 is very, very, very low. The consumer that they're targeting 163 00:11:40,780 --> 00:11:44,540 appears to be someone who has a PC or a console 164 00:11:44,540 --> 00:11:47,540 in the same room as the place 165 00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:52,100 where they want to stream it to wirelessly. They have a TV and they're with their partner 166 00:11:52,140 --> 00:11:55,300 or the friend and they want to either watch something 167 00:11:55,300 --> 00:11:59,340 and play something at the same time. You can have shoulder to shoulder time 168 00:11:59,340 --> 00:12:03,220 with your significant other while also ignoring each other. 169 00:12:03,220 --> 00:12:07,740 I've done it. It's also a wireless display. You know, maybe you wouldn't use the seven inch one 170 00:12:07,740 --> 00:12:12,540 for this, but I could see using the 11 inches sort of like a secondary display for a laptop. 171 00:12:12,540 --> 00:12:16,140 There's options, but it is really hard for me 172 00:12:16,140 --> 00:12:19,860 to wrap my head around the fact that like someone would buy this 173 00:12:19,860 --> 00:12:23,760 instead of spending like a bit more and getting something like a steam deck, 174 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,940 but that's gonna be up to you. A lot of things that I've been saying today 175 00:12:26,940 --> 00:12:34,260 are just very particular to me. What do you guys think? Leave a comment below if you are going to drop $350 on this 176 00:12:34,780 --> 00:12:36,060 and tell me why.
