00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:08.599
so today I'll be unboxing a product that while I didn't buy it I actually bought

00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:13.440
one about six months ago for my parents and the reason I bought it is because

00:00:11.120 --> 00:00:18.359
it's kind of a unique product so this is the Logitech cordless media board Pro

00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:22.720
for PlayStation 3 although you are not actually limited to using it with the

00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:26.039
PlayStation 3 they're actually using it for their Media Center PC and I'll

00:00:24.840 --> 00:00:31.560
explain how they're doing that in a minute but why don't we go through what Logitech says about it on the box first

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:36.320
of all they say is a keyboard second of all they say it is with Bluetooth

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:38.360
wireless technology so it does use a

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:42.440
Bluetooth interface there are no cords you just put in a battery and off you go

00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:46.440
cordless media keys and it has a touchpad and scroll bar so you can see

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:52.199
right here that it actually has a mouse or like a touchpad built into the

00:00:48.879 --> 00:00:54.600
keyboard it's slim okay and then we go

00:00:52.199 --> 00:00:58.359
around to the back and we find that it works up to 30 ft from your PlayStation

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:02.519
3 it has an integrated touchpad offers an easy way to enter text and type mess

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:06.040
messages on the Playstation 3 or a computer it is perfect for the

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:09.680
PlayStation Network it is lightweight perfect for living room use and it has

00:01:07.880 --> 00:01:17.159
quick media Keys give instant access to Media control panel movie menus and more

00:01:13.759 --> 00:01:19.560
so I will be opening the seals with my

00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:24.320
ruler knife which actually belongs to the cameraman not to me at all but I was

00:01:22.119 --> 00:01:28.079
like oh I have no knife but the difference is that I thought of it

00:01:26.119 --> 00:01:34.079
before we started filming today so the cameraman gave me something to use

00:01:30.360 --> 00:01:38.759
okay so inside we will find um a blank

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:41.119
white area surrounded by black and green

00:01:38.759 --> 00:01:44.759
when we remove that we will find a keyboard okay so it's held in by a

00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:49.280
couple pieces of foam right here so you can see it's actually quite well secured

00:01:47.119 --> 00:01:53.759
even without the top uh half of the Box on it we can just go ahead and pull this

00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:59.479
out and let's see what we've got in terms of manuals and accessories like no

00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:01.840
accessories just a manual so let's open this up

00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:08.920
got a part number sticker on it okay that's helpful okay important

00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:15.000
information let's start with this it's in Portuguese and French and English yes

00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:20.480
English so U duration of implied warranties National statutory rights the

00:02:18.160 --> 00:02:23.959
Logitech address battery warning follow the batteries instructions as well as

00:02:22.040 --> 00:02:28.239
these important safety chips okay so mostly safety so safety is important

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:32.640
thank you Logitech next we have the installation manual for the media board

00:02:30.519 --> 00:02:37.319
Pro and I have to confess I did end up needing this when I installed this for

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:39.040
my parents um so you put in the

00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:43.760
batteries that's pretty straightforward you turn the keyboard on by sliding the

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:48.200
onoff switch that is not the step that I got stuck on I was not stuck on that

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:53.040
step um then you adjust the keyboard feet for Comfort if required also not

00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:59.760
where I got stuck next you use the media keys and

00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:04.000
then you oh whatever come on where's the step that I got stuck on oh yeah right

00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:08.519
right right right right here okay so how you actually register the keyboard with

00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:13.599
your with your Bluetooth adapter when pairing so you actually need to enter um

00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:17.519
wow they don't actually say maybe they've changed the procedure but I had

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:21.560
to enter a password in order to get it to syn with the Bluetooth dongle that

00:03:19.640 --> 00:03:26.040
was connected to the computer so that's the part that I found challenging

00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:30.760
because this keyboard was actually the first time I had ever used Bluetooth for

00:03:28.920 --> 00:03:35.400
anything I'm not a phone guy and I tend to stick

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:39.640
with wired for all of my peripherals so that's that's what I was using Okay so

00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:42.959
the media board Pro it's a very comfortable keyboard actually you can

00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:47.159
easily sit and I'm going to get the cameraman to move for a little bit but

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:50.200
you can easily sit on the couch and hold it in your lap it's very very

00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:54.840
comfortable in this kind of a position because it's so lightweight and so thin

00:03:52.720 --> 00:03:58.360
so you just kind of hold it where you're sitting wherever you happen to be

00:03:56.360 --> 00:04:03.640
sitting and then here let's have a look here so in terms of media Keys you got a

00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:06.480
menu key back play forward and Blu-ray

00:04:03.640 --> 00:04:10.879
DVD menu uh these all work on PC but I'm not sure what this one does in that

00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:14.400
context logitech's put a very glossy finish on this particular keyboard it

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:19.400
does make it a bit of a fingerprint magnet but it's not the worst I've seen

00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:23.680
by a long shot keyboard is very as I said comfortable and the layout is very

00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:28.120
very standard uh so you have a fullsize backspace shift enter and other shift

00:04:26.400 --> 00:04:33.919
they haven't done anything particularly stupid but one thing that you might

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:36.560
notice is that there's no Windows key so

00:04:33.919 --> 00:04:40.400
these are actually right and left click so you can use you have a couple of

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:44.840
different options you can either use the keyboard like this back out cameraman so

00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:47.919
with your right finger on the touchpad and these are your right and left click

00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:51.520
over here or you can use it like you would use a laptop with your left finger

00:04:49.400 --> 00:04:55.560
on the touchpad or vice versa and you can use the right and left click over

00:04:53.000 --> 00:05:00.360
here power button switch rather is over here so just slide that into the

00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:04.880
position that you require it to be in in and then on the bottom you will find the

00:05:02.919 --> 00:05:07.560
structural bracing and this also allows it to be a little bit lighter because

00:05:06.400 --> 00:05:12.199
they haven't just filled the whole thing in with plastic and then the battery

00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:15.639
slots here are the little adjustable feet that the I assure you this is not

00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:20.639
the part that I got stuck on when I was installing this and then so the thing

00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:23.680
that is missing if you're using this with a computer is a Bluetooth dongle

00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:28.960
because it's designed for the Playstation 3 which has built-in Bluetooth it does not include one so

00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:35.080
that means that you'll need to buy I mean you can get for as cheap as like 5 10 bucks so you just grab any Bluetooth

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:38.840
dongle a generic one and then you can actually pair it to the keyboard it

00:05:36.440 --> 00:05:45.440
takes probably about 5 minutes so thank you for checking out my unboxing of the

00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:45.440
cordless media board Pro
