Emart Backdrop Stand
This is a great cheap backdrop stand to use for photography, videos, or an event.
You do get what you pay for so it's not the best, but you get a good product for the cost. The included water-filled weight is not worth using, though.
I'm giving it a 4/5.

Ikan Stratus Monitor Holder
มุมมอง 526 หลายเดือนก่อน
I have finally found the camera monitor holder that does everything I was looking for. This is one of the only camera monitor holder I found that has pins on top and is tension based on a nato rail clamp. I'm giving this a perfect 5/5. This is already a cheaper than competitors and provides you extra goodies as well. Amazon: amzn.to/48McJwP If it's not in stock check B&H: www.bhphotovideo.com/c...

Ulanzi BP10: Camera Backpack
มุมมอง 1.9K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
It was time for a new camera backpack since the last one I used lasted me over 8 years, but this is not a bag I think that could do the same. It's a great bag and I love the design, but it has some flaws I can't look past. I can recommend this though if the issues I have won't bother you. I'm giving this a 4/5 even though it isn't for me.

Gamesir X2 Pro - Review (With Rubber Removal)
มุมมอง 9147 หลายเดือนก่อน
Review of the GameSir X2 Pro Mobile Gaming Controller for Android. It's a more pricier option but for good reason. You get what you pay for and this is a great product, but still has some flaws. I'm giving this a 4/5 Amazon Affiliate Link: amzn.to/4bu2LCx
Don't recommend it.just stops working for some reason. Disconnects at random times.

Remember, $150. You're asking for features that "might" come on $400 bags. Clam shell designs are just the way this is, and seen on much more expensive bags.
The Space Black and Star White Edition are so cool... with the special texts and graphics...
I literally just got my BSP D8 today. Loving it. Pls does the vibration or rumble work on mobile games, like CodM and others?
I just got the d9 and i love it
Hi! Please let me know if this controller is compatible with Brawl Stars!
You can’t play brawl Stars with a controller
Does it have space for a water pack? Sorry if you mentioned it. I’m looking for a hiking bag that I can use for everything I need.
este gamepad possui algum app para mapear os controle do jogo e se realmente funciona. Meu celular é um Samsung S23 Ultra Android 14, UI 6.1.
Can you do different size with stand i talking about wider or smaller
Can you explain? You can adjust the width but it only "locks out" once it's fully extended so I can't say how sturdy it will be when not fully locked out but depending on what you are hanging it should be ok.

Small Design - Great for an S9. Yes, im rocking that small thing Abxy Buttons - Actually not obnoxiously loud Extra shoulder buttons and turbo - A nice touch Lastly an affordable price, really checks all the boxes for me.
glad you like it. It's really great for the price.
Can you click the sticks?
12:53 Aaaaaa ..... Camera! Hey! Be careful with the camera! )))
I was staring at it the whole time, I was seriously concerned for that camera XD
Thank you!
How can you return when your damages it
Being a scumbag and not mentioning it when returning
Does the usb-c port on this easysmx m10 support data transfer? As Im looking for a controller that support data transfer to connect and stream game from my pc while Im too lazy to go out of bed. I dont want wireless stream as my wifi is not so reliable to do that.
Did you find something? Also what program do you use to stream a game over usb c?
As far as I know only Backbone can do that but it costs their subscription price
I just got it. The hard case scratches very easily. I got scratched several times.🤣🤣
How is performing
Man, does this control really look good on the cell phone or does it have that little feeling even though the cell phone is a little wobbly, loose? Because there are cell phones with super thin edges like the Note 10 and I have the impression that this happens with the fit of this control. Can you tell me?
I don't have it anymore, but I do remember it feeling nice and snug the springs are pretty tight in a good way on this controller.
Do you happen to know if the joysticks and should triggers are hall effect mechanisms?
I believe they are all just normal analog design.
Does it work on iphone Xs max?
This should work with the X Max (usbc) but I have not tested it. I'm sorry.
I'm curious, how are you bringing it around as you travel? I'm afraid of it breaking as I put in my bag or luggage.
I returned it, but I put controllers into a somewhat hard shelled case. Something like this, but you have to look at dimensions: amzn.to/4baqPtP

sorry for late response I do not remember but it is in the instruction manual. If you lost yours you can get it online still.
Turbo button + L3 (left joystick).
Thanks for this review! I'm on the edge of getting this backpack but my only concern is my 18' laptop not fitting. Would it be much to ask if you could tell me if the laptop compartment on the back would fit the width of my laptop at 12.5 inches?
I do not have it anymore I'm also sorry for the late response. I think a 18'' laptop might be tight in there it says it's only for 17'' and it can only flex so much without being annoying.
@@luminariproductreviews no worries, I had to find out by trial and error and I can confirm 18' laptops DO NOT fit at all.
Get a thinner case
You could but myself and many others are happy with the cases we have I need it for protection of my phone. Bluetooth is the best option in that case.
Thank you for uploading this, along with your honest results!
No problem let me know if you have any questions
I got it like 2 weeks ago, never had a controller before and im not even a fan of it, but i like it. There is no free mapper software for it as far as i know, so i ca use it with a couple of games only. About charging, i charged it for many hours, but the LED is still red, so thats a negative, i dont even know whats the limit, if i can try to charge it with my samsung fast charger or not.... Other than that, its pretty cool!
Ya this would tak ea while to charge your phone I think I wouldn't even bother tbh maybe its worth seeing how much it can tricle charge while you are playing. Just to be clear the controller has no battery it just has passthrough charging.
@@luminariproductreviews Oh yeah, now you made it clear for me. Looks like i misread something then. Thats my fault, english is not my first language so i just misunderstood. Thank you for the info! :)
Damn this some quality content unlike some stupid random yapping bs reviewers that contantly spout out nonsense rather than talking about pros or cons
Thanks do you have any specific questions? It's a solid backpack I just ended up going with a 3x more expensive one but only because it had more room.
Thank you, I just bought it but I’m still a little confuse with the water 🤔 😅
Do you have any questions? personally I would just go and buy a sandbag don't use the water bag.
I bought it like three months ago, and for the price its perfect. I think your complaining too much.
Does it works with warzone mobile?
I agree at this price point nothing else even comes close
I never really implied it was bad. It's just ok depends on what you are looking for. I clearly stated what my needs I was looking for was. My complaints aren't even that far fetched. Glad you enjoy it, but I found other options were better overall even with price as a factor. You should make your own review so others can get a different perspective as well. I'd love to see what you think.
@@ImUrZaddy I completely disagree about nothing coming close, but I can agree the price to value is pretty good. For me that extra $$ saved doesn't beat out what I like from other controllers. Luckily people have plenty of options to choose from.
@@renekumic4719 at least for me works like a charm. No complaints
Thanks for doing this before i bought mine , i also want something that goes along with my phone case the search continues, hope you make videos on new suggestions
I took a break on getting some I just decided to get a thing that goes over my neck and holds a phone and I use a controller wirelessly for now. I really only wanted to play in bed or laying down. I am looking at the galileo from gamesir.
I want a Bsp D8 so bad for my tablet. It's the only thing I play games on
What's stopping you from getting it? It will def hold smaller tablets but not super large ones. Just might be a bit uncomfortable to hold for too long.
best purchase that i did! much cheaper than the backbone or kishi. the difference is just plastic quality and lack of features like kishi and backbone's software side.
I absolutely agree. and honestly I do prefer some of the ergonomics of this more, but quality is important some people.
@@luminariproductreviewsThis is already better than a Backbone for shooters cause it’s not using crappy JoyCon style sticks
@@terribletimes902 I absolutely 100% agree with that.
Couple of questions: 1: I currently use a xbox bt game controller and assign the buttons inside the game. That given, will i be ok with this since it's xbox layout? 2: can't you remap the keys, like via in game or maybe an app? Nothing wrong with the xbox controller really, just looking more for a stretchsble longer style like gamesir or some of the other popular devices. From my experience, the ones like gamesir and backbone either don't support games I play or don't support cases. Both are a must for me. Mainly (for now) I play cod Mobile, and Diablo immortal. So in short I want the case support, gamesir or backbone style and bt support. This ShanWan Q17 Mobile Game Controller is about the closest I've come to that supports everything I want.
I absolutely hear you about it being as close as possible for what we are both probably looking for lol. You can probably remap buttons but I read some people just have some issues with certain games. It just sucks that you pay money to even have to do this. I don't personally do this and never would want to so I'm sorry I can't comment more on it. I would say to check out this controller I did a review on the Arvin BT controller: th-cam.com/video/yaNWVwMT4wo/w-d-xo.html I would also say honestly to get the Gamesir X2 Bluetooth version. It's like 95% same as the Gamesir X2 Pro except the triggers are not analog....so that that might be what ruins it for you and it doesn't have the nice Xbox button. Here is a video on the X2 Pro I did (again bluetooth version has no analog triggers): th-cam.com/video/kktFki2S4f0/w-d-xo.html I just want to say I am very critical and you may not be as critical on what you are looking for.
@luminariproductreviews I'm pretty strict when it comes to things. The gamesir x2 looks really cool but....I didn't see where it was capable of using a case on the phone, at least I didn't see any reviews so far with using it with a case on the phone. My case on my s23 ultra is a dbrand case, very nice case, best one I've ever used, very grippy. Problem is it's a very snug fit so taking the case off to use a phone controller would be rather annoying if I had to keep taking the case off. Ill probably go with the shanwan Q17, seems the best overall for what I want in a controller. Certainly not the best, but definitely not the worst. I wish the gamesir company would adapt to letting users use thre phones with thier cases on, without breaking the bank. The gamevice flex works with a case, but sadly I think it's limited to specified games, and is not bt capable. That leaves the shanwan Q17 as the only one left. I'm glad I can't across your video though, helped me better choose and make up my mind.
@@alpha_y2k438 The gamesir x2 bluetooth version is just Bluetooth so no plugging it in it should fit most cases. This is the one I'm talking about: amzn.to/3V5xDnk It says it can fit phones up to 173mm so about 6.8 inches. The S23 Ultra with no case should be about 5.7 inches so with your case it should fit. (This is from top to bottom not diagonal in that case the screen is 6.8 inches but it doesn't matter only the height does) It's also only $50 it's a great but again I have to stress there is on analog triggers so it's like the Nintendo switch joy con and pro controllers where it just clicks in which honestly doesn't matter but depends what you play a lot. Either way you can return anything you don't like. If you ever find a better controller please let me know!
@@luminariproductreviews so I got the ShanWan controller today, tried it out for about an hour to hour and a half, and it was not bad. Plastic, yes, cheap, maybe, depends on your definition of cheap and what your comparing it to lol. I'd say it's sub par not really cheap. It's pretty solid from what I dealt with. I tried the phone only and then with the provided adapter to charge it, even then it wasn't what I'd call flimsy. I turned it upside down and shook it fairly good and the phone stayed put. So while plasticy and lower budget I would agree but it's very acceptable on a budget. So that brings me to the gamesir x2. How exactly do you charge the phone if needed when playing? I haven't seen a way for that in videos. Would it have enough room to insert a L-piece and put a cord down the side similar to on the ShanWan? I think I'd probably like the durability of the gamesir x2 better, just would like a way to charge it if needed while playing I'm not disappointed in the ShanWan at all, it seems solid enough and is acceptable on a budget pricing Oh as a side note I played Diablo Immortal, cod Mobile and SNES 9x EX+ app playing legend of Zelda. Diablo Immortal I had to readjust/reassign 1 key in total and cod Mobile I didn't have to change a thing. Both worked great once I did that no issues. With SNES app I had to re-adjust the keys, as it was putting X as Y and Y as X, simple change of the key binds and it works very nice now.
@@alpha_y2k438 I’m buying a separate cheap android phone to play on so I don’t have to keep taking case off my phone.
What are the alternatives to it besides pgytech?
What kind of backpack style are you looking for? Opens front down or back down? I did a video on the Tarion Pro it isn't as stylish but is mroe rugged.
Ye, it definitely seems like one of the better $20ish ali express phone controllers, but w these less premium brands i always steer away from places like amazon. The markups seem more tolerable on known brands. The unit i got was like 24 list price, i dont think i got any special.
I absolutely agree with you I only use Amazon because I already pay for Prime. So for me I got this controller the next day and for all these other cheap controllers i get it within 2 days at the latest. I haven't used AliExpress I know the shipping is longer also if I need to do a return it usually happens in the moment I give it back to the delivery company. The markups are crazy though you are right. I have a video on an Arvin controller was just a reselling of another company which they just marked up the price of the legit same item.
Hello, I have been following your channel video topic and quality is very good. You can take your channel even further if you want. But there are some want. But there are some important issues in your channel which will not grow your channel easily if not solved. And your channel SEO score is absolutely zero. If you can solve this problems your channel will grow very quickly.
Kinda scared cuz I've been seeing some comments that it doesn't work for them and some have a buttons that doesnt work cuz of the firmware update and calibration... But I've ordered it anyway 🗿
I'm not sure how recent that firmware was but when I had it around when I posted this I had no issues I still think it's one of the more premium options. If you don't like it just return it. I'm sure you will be happy.
Can it connect to iPhone 8 plus?😢
The one I reviewed is the usb-c version so only android and iPhone 15. They do have a an iPhone version. Check it out here: amzn.to/3P9FxbA
Hi, between this one and the easysmx m10 which one would you recommend? Also, do you know if you can use the smx m10 on pc with a usb cable? Thank you
I would get the Easy SMX m10 as long as you don't need a case on your phone and dont' mind pluggin your phone in vs bluetooth tha the BSP D8 has. I have no tried the smxm10 with a cable on PC I'm sorry. I jsut want to say controllers like that feel a bit weird on pc without the handles being extended and vibration. I do have a video on my channel of it.
Thank you @@luminariproductreviews
What are your thoughts on razer kishi v2 pro?
I want to love it but I like things about the first razer kishi more, but it's a good controller. I would look at something lik the game sir x2 pro as well purely from cost differences. I love the fac ti thas a 3.5mm headphone jack and phones with cases can fit more than others, but that is something to consider if you watn bluetooth or something to connect your phone into. I need bluetooth because of my case.
this or galileo g8?
I haven't used the Galileo yet but I can say from other reviewers and what I think that it is by far better if you don't mind the size of it. I don't like the current color of it either but it is a great controller for the price.

Sd out every time I tried to get it I'm hoping to get it soon but I don't actually like the colors of it I'm hoping they come out with a different version of it.
Do you have some type of Case on the Switch or something 🤷🏾♂️not counting Screen Protector because my Switch fits perfectly tight on D8
Im very confused on how your Switch slipped out like that especially since I have a Switch and the D8 and I shook it up and down and it would not fall off,to be clear I have old Switch not the Oled and its held pretty tight,its like a perfect for it
I have the old one as well with a thing plastic case but the edges are exposed so it should still fit and grip the same. Really don't know why it was slipping out maybe could be the specific unit I had. I can see the springs losing strength after a while.

I do not have the BSP D8 anymore, but I can confirm it does have Gyroscope which can be adjusted. I'm not sure about actually triggering it, but the controller does have access to using it. I found a link to the manual I hope this helps. manuals.plus/hechuang/bsp-d8-wireless-gamepad-manual
