WEBVTT 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:08.240 So today I've got something really cool to unbox. I have the G155 mobile gaming 00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:14.960 environment. And I think what they mean is briefcase designed entirely to fit a 00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:19.119 console and a screen inside. Now it comes with the screen, but it does not 00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:23.039 come with the console or the controllers or Okay, here we go. Console and 00:00:21.279 --> 00:00:25.600 accessories not included. So that's that's that's important right there. 00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:34.000 Although it does include some accessories. It does include an HDMI cable. So, speaking of HDMI, it comes 00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:36.719 with a 15.5 in HD LED display, an HDMI 00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:40.559 dedicated input, stereo speakers, and dual audio jacks. Over on the other 00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:47.280 side, you can see it is designed for PlayStation 3 Slim, Xbox 360, so that's 00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:51.360 more slimmer than the original Xbox 360, which it is also designed for, although 00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:55.360 some Xbox 360 consoles will require the use of a component to HDMI converter. 00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:00.239 Oh, okay. Hey, I guess that's the older ones that did not come with HDMI. All 00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:03.199 right, the G155 is a self-contained mobile gaming environment that lets you 00:01:01.760 --> 00:01:06.560 stay in the action when you're on the move. Just strap in your gaming console, 00:01:05.199 --> 00:01:12.080 store your accessories, select your favorite games, and you're good to go. The G155's integrated HD display, stereo 00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:18.320 speakers, and dual headphone jacks will immerse you in your favorite game wherever you are. Just pop it open, plug 00:01:15.119 --> 00:01:19.520 it in, and play. Cool. The components 00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:26.479 that are included, you know what? We'll go through that when we actually open it up. Play. Supports your favorite gaming 00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:27.920 console. C. Integrated 15.5 in HD 00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:31.520 display lets you catch every detail of your favorite games. Cool. Crank the 00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:35.759 integrated stereo speakers and dual 3 and 12 mm headphone jacks and protect. 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:41.680 The rugged case protects all your gaming gear from minor impacts. Now, this next 00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:44.159 one is huge. Travel lightweight design 00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:49.680 complies with airline regulations and carry-on guidelines. That is cool. So, 00:01:46.720 --> 00:01:54.240 you can actually use this to well stand in an airport very inconspicuously. This 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:59.439 guy would not get questioned by airport security. I can guarantee you that. You 00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:04.079 can use it to uh to travel or you can 00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:05.840 use it to uh recreate that old old MTV 00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:10.479 commercial with the chair and the guy being, you know, blown away by the uh by 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.640 the music. So, you can do either of those things. Let's go ahead and open 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:20.239 this baby up. Now, I'm not going to be doing a demo with this particular unit 00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:24.120 just yet, but I will be following up with one. And 00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:30.239 okay, but I will be following up with a 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:34.560 demo of the unit after we do the unboxing video. So, let's have a look at 00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:39.680 these accessories that are included. There is a wall wart here, which is 00:02:36.959 --> 00:02:43.840 going to so that'll be used to power the screen itself. You will need to plug in 00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:48.319 your console separately. So, that is two power jacks for the entire unit once you 00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.519 put in the console. Next, we have a little tiny HDMI cable, which as you'll 00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:58.879 see will be as long as needed for this particular unit. Nice soft closed cell 00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:03.200 foam, very durable. Wouldn't worry about this thing getting damaged in shipping 00:03:00.720 --> 00:03:08.000 at all with that stuff packed around it. In the bottom, you see the same thing. 00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:12.440 And I will go ahead and put this aside while we take out the unit itself. 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:22.959 Wow, it's very cool looking. Well built actually. It feels like like luggage 00:03:20.959 --> 00:03:29.440 actually. Okay, so let's take a look at the outside in detail before we open it 00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:34.480 up. Great little G logo there on it. All 00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:40.239 right, on the bottom you can see we've got rubberized grippy pieces here, here, 00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:45.280 here, here, and here. So, when you put this down, it's actually gonna keep it 00:03:42.480 --> 00:03:49.280 flat. So, it's Oh, it's a little Okay. Well, right now without a console in it, 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:52.720 it's pretty heavy on the one side, so it might seem inclined to tip over. I 00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:56.560 suspect once you put the console in, it's going to sit very easily, and it's 00:03:54.560 --> 00:04:00.480 very difficult to move around with those rubber pieces down there. The handle is 00:03:58.640 --> 00:04:05.920 right here. So, you can see it's got two metal rods on either side, and that 00:04:03.760 --> 00:04:09.360 should be able to support the weight of it, no problem. on this side, which is 00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:14.799 clearly meant to be at the bottom. That's where the console sits. You've got one, two, three rubber strips. And 00:04:13.200 --> 00:04:20.479 on the other side, as you guys saw already, we have the manufacturer logo. 00:04:18.479 --> 00:04:26.080 So, let's go ahead and you know what? Let's put it down here. Just open it up 00:04:23.280 --> 00:04:29.600 like that. Lift it open. And that'll be a little 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:36.320 bit easier to do also with a console sitting in it. And there is the mobile 00:04:32.960 --> 00:04:39.040 gaming station. So, inside we find a 00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:44.720 user's manual. Let's go ahead and take out this little pack here. Got some 00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:48.040 Velcro strips to hold down your console. 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:48.040 Cool. Cool. 00:04:48.080 --> 00:04:58.440 Okay, let's flip this over. 00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:58.440 So, manufactured week 25 of 2011. 00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:07.199 All right, we've got an insert here. So, this side is for the PlayStation 3 slim 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.360 and Xbox 360. And then this side is for 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:13.680 the Xbox 360. So, since I'll be installing an Xbox 360 in here, I'm 00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:19.120 going to go ahead and put that in. So, you can see we have some uh little 00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:24.400 padded storage compartments here where you can store things. And then you can 00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:25.840 just pull on a rip cord here. You 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:29.919 tighten that up so that it's not going to go anywhere in transit. Okay. Same 00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:35.440 thing on the other side. storage compartment here. You can pull on that. 00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.759 You can cinch it shut and make sure that nothing comes out. This is for securing 00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:46.639 the console as I mentioned before. So, these just run through the the loops 00:05:42.960 --> 00:05:48.000 which are down here. Okay. So, I would 00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:52.639 recommend leaving those. I mean, once you put the console in, you're never going to take it out anyway. So, you 00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:55.919 strap it in, velcro it down. Those aren't going anywhere. And now, let's 00:05:54.479 --> 00:05:59.919 have a look at the display itself. So, you can see it comes with a protective 00:05:57.520 --> 00:06:07.280 plastic cover. So that is a glossy display. All right. Remember guys, 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:09.919 glossy does help with the vibrancy of 00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:15.039 the image. Although there are certain disadvantages to glossy style displays 00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:19.440 and that is when you don't have adequate shade for the display. You can get a 00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:24.080 fair amount of reflectiveness off it. However, check this out. With the 00:06:21.520 --> 00:06:29.919 included shroud over the G155 gaming station, it 00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:33.680 actually provides some shade to the display. So, if you're sitting in front 00:06:31.280 --> 00:06:38.319 of it like this, I would expect that unless you have a light directly behind 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:41.199 you pointed at the screen, you're not going to have too much difficulty with 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:44.639 that because it's going to provide some shape for it. Now, in terms of controls 00:06:42.960 --> 00:06:49.280 on the screen itself, let's just come in down here and have a look. So, there is 00:06:47.039 --> 00:06:53.600 what appears to be an IR sensor. There's a power button. your stereo speakers 00:06:51.440 --> 00:06:59.919 here and here. We've got volume down, volume up, brightness down, brightness 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:03.039 up, uh, a menu button. There is the 00:06:59.919 --> 00:07:05.599 power input, and here's the HDMI input. 00:07:03.039 --> 00:07:10.800 And this is cool. So, two dedicated headphone jacks. So, if you didn't 00:07:07.599 --> 00:07:13.919 already know that this is a special skew 00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:15.919 just for this particular unit as far as 00:07:13.919 --> 00:07:21.120 the included TV goes, then you should know that by now because A, it has their 00:07:18.080 --> 00:07:22.720 logo on it. Okay? And then B, it has not 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:26.319 only the speakers, but also the two headphone jacks. So that means that if 00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:29.520 you're on the go, you can plug in either a little wireless headphone thing, which 00:07:27.919 --> 00:07:35.120 I have one. They're really handy. And then you can have two separate people using their wireless headphones, or you 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:39.520 can plug in just two regular headphones, and you can have two gamers running at 00:07:37.440 --> 00:07:44.800 the same time off the screen without any difficulty. So here, the HDMI cable goes 00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:48.800 here, and then it's just going to plug into the back of your console like that. 00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:52.560 And then the power cable is going to go right here. And that'll plug into power. 00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:56.319 And then power will come off the back of your console, which you can also run to 00:07:54.479 --> 00:07:59.599 a nearby power outlet. Speaking of which, the length of the cord might be 00:07:58.080 --> 00:08:02.400 relevant to some of you. So, I'll just show you how long it is. So, you should 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:06.800 be able to reach without too much difficulty a nearby wall outlet. In 00:08:05.039 --> 00:08:12.479 fact, let's try and find a nearby wall outlet that I can reach from there. Look 00:08:08.479 --> 00:08:14.800 at that. Ha, it worked. Success. All 00:08:12.479 --> 00:08:18.720 right. So, I look forward to bringing you guys an update once I've had a 00:08:16.479 --> 00:08:22.080 chance to actually game on this guy.
