Hey everyone! I'm very well aware of the autofocus issue lol. I was just in a rush to get down and start filming the reaction video that I didn't turn the lens from auto to manual. As you can see from all my other videos, this doesn't happen. I was using a DSLR for the quick setup instead of my usual cinema cam. Sorry for the mistake, don't let it bother you too much lol
I can understand... following linus since 2012 but now following you too... 😂
I didn't even notice
i really liked this video, reminds me of how i feel when i see someone who inspires me enjoy one of my videos. congrats man :)
btw linus didn't call you a p3n!s, the sentence was "the random frank p-ness of [...]"
When that "special feature" becomes annoying as....
Don't sweat it.
Your prod-vals are usually neat & spot on, so I can imagine your reaction during the edit...
realizing the issue
& then the hard choice:
basically reshoot it...
or go with the footage where that cam's autofocus obviously kept having an attraction distraction with your background.
atleast he didn't drop it 😂
lol
Ditto
@MegaBased butcher Chad 🇮🇱⃠ me sitting here with my 1050ti watching him drop the newest cards….
I was thinking the same thing. No nuclear bomb animated graphic
Very True!🤣
Congrats man. That could have gone way differently. I hope it gets more people finding your channel. Interesting story: I remember watching a bunch of your gaming headset reviews when I first started reviewing headsets. Thanks!
I've never gotten the appeal of ultralight mice myself, but congrats on the praise from the LTT crew. that doesn't happen too often.
I like my fat mouse
Reduced strain on your wrist is a big reason a lot of people don't think about, was definitely my biggest reason.
Edit: I'm glad most people understand what I'm saying lol, it's something you won't understand till you try it for awhile
Great point @wicked. IMO, my perfect mouse is one that is a natural extension of myself so I can translate my thoughts into reality with the least effort. The reduced weight here helps SO much. I’m a competitive aim-trainer and over the past 3 years I’ve gone from a daily driver ~94g mouse to a carbon fibre ~26g mouse. It’s an entire different world of accuracy and perfect tracking, and I saw the Aimlab performance results literally immediately after each upgrade.
@@WickedKillaYT Light weight mice helps alot during long gaming sessions. Over time you will notice the weight differences alot
i also didnt get it, until i actually tried one for myself.
He didn't call you RandomFrankPenis, he said it was the "RandomFrankP'ness" of the mouse. That was so funny. Well done Frank.
The thumbnail of this video should have a speech bubble coming from Linus saying “RandomFrankP***s” 😂
@@mikes978Ya that would have been perfect and right up his alley in terms of thumbnails
You really had to state the obvious huh. That was the whole joke.
what a call back to the walmart prebuild pc video they did
R/woooosh
I really love the design, I'd buy it just for that.
Sorry bud too late for ya

Congrats on the review! From a fan to a forgotten interviewer to being seen and appreciated! You've done incredibly well and you have all the momentum to rocket forward! KEEP GOING! HAVE FUN! You've earned it! Cheers!
I had a big tabletop TH-camr do a positive review my tabletop wargame and then release it on a Saturday. I had the same feeling. I didn't know what was happening and people started messaging me about the review. It was wild. Props to have Linus review your mouse!
I was lucky enough to get one of the last ones! I'm eager to try it out when it arrives. You really deserve this shoutout (if you can call it that) from LTT, I hope it gives the channel the boost or momentum you've been waiting for.
Awesome review, glad it worked out for you, you deserve it! I see linus got 0002, i got him beat in something lol! I got your unit 0001 with the holo card :P, thanks for that by the way RFPenis! Auction was a blast!
i cant get over the "random frank p-ness" linus dropped on us 😂😂
Great reaction content! Frank James as a rebrand feels mature, seems like a solid choice.
I listen to this like a podcast and I gotta say it worked fantastic. I would absolutely love a Frank James pod.
I watched his vid when it went live, and I thought he did a really really balanced and fair review. You should be proud of everything really. :) This was a fun watch too. :D
Great review of the review. I think he did you well. And I feel your mouse is going to do well. I wish you all the best. More color options in the future would be good. My color scheme is different than yours, but I love it.
i love how when a tech creator get mentioned by LTT its like a blessing from the lord its so funny
Im happy to see your more pumped in your videos! Your comedy bits are top notch!
Yes I'm here Because I saw you mouse on LTT And I am looking forward to seeing your channel. I think your Mouse LOOKS STUNNING Frank. Notice Lynus wore a Shirt as close as humanly possible to your Mouse Color ! I knew it was going to be a winner from the start buddy. 😉
pretty crazy man. I remember watching you back when you had 10,000 subscribers
It was really interesting to watch. For future videos; it would make it much easier to understand if there is only one voice speaking at a time.
Kudos for getting a good review from a very widely known channel. When you take your time to make a great product, it shows in the reviews. Personally, I still prefer a wired mouse, but I might be convinced to switch for my laptop.
I really enjoy both your Channels. Always good content. Congrats on the hardware.
"i dont know what I missed".... Gos forbid you just re-wind it 10 seconds...
Good vid first time viewer...love Ltt reviews and like your scope of responses of his critique and break downs. Good screening and I do like mouse aesthetics...if I had a pc atm I would have definetly jumped on grabbing one.(love that you have 001 and he has 002
I have noticed I have to hunt for your videos now. They use to be in my stream with desk set ups and monthly tech but now I never see them
Why was i expecting this and why did this happen 😂
But frankly (pun intended)
These two videos only pushed me more to get a new mouse, i wanted to participate in giveaways and such but i am from India and it won't happen.
So yeah, gonna get something budget friendly but someday will get a Frank mouse
Im kicking myself now, I didn't even realise you were releasing a mouse, I just bought the teal and purple g305, I should have waited a while 😭
don't care about the mouse at all since i only use ergo mice like basilisk and G502x but you seem like a cool & humble dude Frankpenis. how you handled those jokes and linus not remembering you, got you a subscriber.
Great vid, want to try the mouse, but that auto focus the whole time was rough haha
Even though you have 2.15 mil subs. I had actually never heard of you until Linus's Video. So even if it was a bad review, which I don't think it was. The coverage from his video is good enough for me. Good job with the mouse. I have had all the mice on their line up, and am stuck on the G Pro Wireless. Because of his video I started to check yours out!
Goes to show that, even if a dedicated testing lab can pick up a pretty high latency level, doesn't necessarily mean the average users brain can also pick up that latency or lag and have issues with it. Our brains are _very_ good at compensating for things that don't quite match expectations, since it's constantly altering our perceptions of the world around us any way and outright lying to us about other things. Like the fact that - providing you have decent enough eyesight - you can _always_ see both sides of your nose at all times in the corner of your eyesight, yet it never bothers you and you aren't even aware of this fact most of the time (until it's pointed out, and even then the effect of noticing it only lasts a very short time) because your brain literally stops "allowing" you to notice it. It compensates by giving you a sort of "blind spot" in those areas of your vision when looking straight ahead. Or another couple of examples are the fact your ears actually pick up a _lot_ of sounds from your internal organs, including your own heartbeat, but it stops allowing those signals to be processed so it can focus on other sounds that actually matter (and because you'd literally go insane if you were constantly aware of these sounds in the background), or the fact you can always feel your clothes moving and rubbing against your skin - but this doesn't irritate you like a single hair moving across your skin does because again, your brain "switches off" or ignores those constant signals so that part of your brain is free to process signals that are actually important to you.
This is likely why the poor performance of the Model O2 went unnoticed by you. It was probably _there_ your brain just compensated for it whereas the testing equipment Linus used obviously won't do this.
Congratulations frank. Been following you for over 5 years, proud of you for leveling up
seeing Frank happy is whole another experience
I've had my rfp x2 mini for a week and a half now, nothing to say besides its a phenomenal mouse. Worth every dollar! Congrats on the mouse drop and the success, much love frank.
Dang just hearing about this now, totally would've bought one. I'm hoping eventually Pulsar does an ergonomic version of the x2 and you do a collab for that, the design is just amazing
I might give your mouse a try, currently using a Corsair mouse. Now we need a Random Frank P headset!
He didn’t say anything about your review standards he just said should you
I'm so glad you made this video 😬. The stats that can be noticed by the "average user" needs better exposure.
You are so down to earth in this one. I hope the LTT video brings you a bunch more viewers.
I commented this on LTT as well, but i have a feeling (hope?) Their model O2 unit is malfunctioning a bit. They don't like it , it doesn't measure well... But the rest online seems to have no issue with it (except price ). I say 'hope' because I wanted a model O with bluetooth at some point :).
I watched the original review and still didn't catch the randomfrankP-ness joke until you restated it. That was amazing lmao
This was awesome you and Linus are my go to for tech reviews.
Nice. design. At first I thought dBrand went in on this as well.. since it looks like their Damascus skin :)
I'm very curious which mic did randomFrankp use? I don't even see mic in video, but it sounds like he is talking close to the mic.
the color coordination is insane
Dat auto focus on the side camera is intense.
Proud of you bro. one of my top five youtubers all time. you do a great job so keep going bro your excellence will get noticed. Under $50 tech, genius.
plzzzzzz turn off auto focus on your camera. the flickering focus is noticeable.
I like how he took the time to absolutely obliterate the O2 🤣🤣
03:25 why even set the camera to AF if u sit at a constant distance? just manually focus on your chair, step down to f 3.5, 4 and call it a day! no stupid AF pumping
Yep it was out of order right away
2:49 bro doesn’t know what the rewind button does lol
this is dope. you should do it for someone else starting out. congrats
camera keeps focasing on wrong subject.
Bro I didn't realize the "Random frank p ness" 💀💀💀
At 2035 or so in, Frank makes a great point, and it's not an excuse at all, that he doesn't have this robotic equipment to test stuff! And, haven't we all experienced one day being great at playing a game then the next day can't seem to get together? At least that's my experience. So all Frank or anyone else who does reviews, as long as they're honest (and Frank is), is all a person can do.
Well I can appreciate using robotics for reviews, to compare them to human testing, just not comparable.
Kind of wish the mouse was in stock anywhere 😢
OMG the Autofocus on the Camera.
I watched Linus' video and now this. And I just realized that when he says "Random Frank P-ness" that my mind suddenly heard it so terribly wrong and started laughing like a little kid that just heard a dirty joke.
its probably something to do with the "d-bounce" or something u said you adjusted.
19:08 Linus specifically said that he was on the most recent version of the firmware and software, and the issues still occurred, so this is not why you didn't notice it. You didn't notice it because you don't have a lab that can detect such minute differences in accuracy, and you were instead going off a subjective feeling about that. There's no need to be embarrassed about that, it's just a different way of approaching product reviews. Hell, Linus would probably have made the same mistake a year ago.
The answer to the very first Linus statement should be this question:
"Is it okay for a multi million dollar business to release an overpriced product without any warranty?"
share more links to buy it then i love the paint job and the huano switches, been trying to get it since the first time i saw it, unfortunately out of stuck :C
I definitely would have bought your mouse if I had a PC or a Laptop. But at this point I only have my Galaxy M11. If this still available in the late 2023 or early 2024, I'm gonna go for it
Hey Randomfrankp, I was curious. Now that you've created a mouse with Pulsar, would you consider making an mmo mouse? Currently, mmo mice's side buttons are atrociously difficult to memorize and have an even more difficult "feel" for which button your hitting when you're obviously not looking at it. Perhaps something that reflects console controller design in terms of readability?
example: thumb buttons would be the typical console 4 button mapping in the star/x pattern. with a forward/back button above. on the top of the mouse, have an extra button convenient to press beside the left and right buttons (this would typically be your left bumper/right bumper.
There are a few mice that have some instances of these layouts, but none of them have that perfect package. What say you Frank? :D
Yeah I use a razer naga with the swappable side-plates and it's good enough but it seems like an area where innovation could really be made.
The reason why no one is making mmo mice is because barely anyone plays mmos. Ultra small market and doesn't worth the investment
Just picked up the X2 Mini Wireless - RandomFrankP a few hours ago 😃
Feels wonderful to use, Got number: 1397
Went from
Razer Imperator (Battlefield 3 edition)
Razer Taipan (Battlefield 4 edition)
Some old Logitech office mouse
Zowie ZA12
Logitech G502
and now the Pulsar X2 Mini Wireless - RandomFrankP
Congrats, enjoy the rush.
I think Linus was super fair with that mouse review - he didn't shy away from potential pain points & things to be wary of when a TH-camr reviews another TH-camr's product but a lot of them were more generalised commentary than any direct digs because the mouse seems to genuinely be quite well done, very fairly priced & the only things Linus mentioned was very high-end testing Frank wouldn't have access to.
Knowing that the only thing frank could have done to rice his review, and his viewers more information, is to purchase data from LMG.. wow. They might be sitting on a gold mine with all the data they'll collect
It was still NCIX Tech tips when I first started watching Linus and I will say that boy has always been fair, open, honest, and transparent about everything he and his company do! Ltt, Jayz, and GN are 3 I know I trust! ☺
Yeah he was very scared for the reviews for his products such as the screwdriver so since then he's become much more fair and softer in his delivery when it comes to reviewing products from smaller companies.
and Linus and Luke have been loving Franks rise as proof that you can still be a huge tech youtuber and it can be still done.
Yes just contact rocketjumpninja
They didn't change rebounce timings because Linus always tests stuff as it comes out of the box because that gives representative values of how 90% of people use their stuff.
Good point.
I agree with that 100%. They test it stock, which is how I believe it should be. Overall it was a good video to watch. And RFP should be happy! LTT did a good job and apparently so did RFPs mouse! 👍
Also, debounce timing is irrelevant for sensor results. That wouldn't have changed those results at all
Been using the mouse for over a week now and its been a very good experience. Design is so nice compared to other mice on the market.
I believe Linus did the review not just to review a great mouse, but to also help a fellow TH-cam creator get a little boost and motivation. It’s so nice to see good people get good things done for them. Congratulations keep up the hard work.
I kind of agree... Although Linus may not have a lot of tech products, he has an entire store of things they have created. I agree that he likely wanted to support the mouse and I honestly don't think if the mouse sucked, that he would have even released the video.. He seems to be more than happy to help out his fellow creators. I would be curious to see if their is a spike in Franks sub count after this too.
@@snowman22ism I Disagree with the "if the mouse sucked he wouldnt have released the video" sentament. He may have been a bit more subdued with the critisisms, but i think he would have called the potato a potato and encouraged him to be more considerate with the partnership next time.
the fact that he didnt shy away from the last reviewed mouse RFP used and that it really did suck (software and hardware wise) compared to its relatively priced market is a real pain point; a little 'dog eat dog' moment flexing their precision testing devaluing some of the user reviewer YTbers.
In regards to the O2, I think the main thing that Linus is talking about you not noticing is the terrible precision, not the latency. I only say this because that level of bad precision should have you feeling like each swipe you make of similar distances translating to different distances the cursor took
Most people can’t notice a 10 ms difference as our reaction time is 215-300ms on average
@@tmoo8779 1. not how reaction times work, just because a time is less than our reaction time doesn't mean it's not noticeable. 2. the comment you're responding to is literally saying how it was NOT about the response time but the precision. all of this is not to say that 10ms is a huge deal for anyone but professional competitive gamers or that the o2 would be unusable
@@tmoo87790.2/0.3 seconds is a pretty huge gap you're saying considering most people buying this are gamers
I bet it's the debounce thing he speaks of that wasn't adjusted by Linus' team compared to him adjusting it. And thus the whole reason they had wildly different experiences
Debounce has to do with switches, not the sensor. E.g. the accuracy issue is about the sensor moves 2 inches and should move 1600 pixels on the screen (at 800dpi) but w/ low accuracy you’re moving exactly 2 inches and sometimes you get 1700 sometimes you get 1550 etc. debounce has nothing to do with the test that the o2 failed.
I hope they do another run if it sells out. I REALLY want that mouse.
Update: the mouse is TOTALLY sold out. I'm so bummed. But I am also happy it sold so well.
If you want the mini, Maxgaming still has plenty of stock. But, I'm not sure how long it will last. They had 10+ regular sized x2 RFPs yesterday and now, they're out of stock.
You can still get the original X2/X2 mini they’re fantastic
Never expected such high quality of a TH-camr mouse collab.
Been a fan of Linus and crew for a long time. I liked his review of your mouse, and I really enjoyed your reaction to it. You called a lot of it along the way and took it well. Overall it seems like a good product, and I hope it does well for you. Gonna try a few of your vids, and see if I like them. Good job, and good luck sir!
You knocked it out of the park on this co-op w/ Pulsar - really wanting a X2 Mini in either your or Boardzy's spec (prefer the Topo design and colorway). I would feel honored by this review from LTT, still amazing they actually got #2 out of the production run. Looks like I might retire my GPxSL - since the Mini fits all/most of my wants in a mouse.
I am seriously thinking about buying the mouse. After upgrading to a gaming mouse, I can't stand "professional" mice (except for the terribly expensive Logitech MX Master 3). I'm used to just bringing my Razer Viper Ultimate over to work, but it's getting annoying + I'm scared about its longevity getting transported all the time. Now I'm considering buying a mouse like this for work
@@MenkoDany sold out everywhere. :(
I can't remember the last time I was stuck in a perma smile like this video got me. Your design is definitely fire! Higher center of gravity is a point as well for the skate test.
I still laughed when you pause and talk about something, then Linus immediately said what you did, love the first watch reaction you got, and think that was the first batch of mice that was reviewed with the new equipment
Also don't worry about youtube name change, I'd your still thinking about the business ends, get emails that are like FrankP or the like
I always love your content man and branding your channel doesn't matter as long as you keep the great content coming and keep your chin up!
I'm glad LTT reviewed your product and I wish you the best in life and career. And I just saw your mouse and I already ordered one from max gaming.
Dude - big respect
I’m sharing in your joy right now, well deserved props ❤
After watching the video from LTT, I finally considered getting a new mouse after being a G502 fanboy for several years but they were all sold out :(. Beautiful design
Can get one from max gaming no problem
@@BFF.Studios honestly. the new g502 is actually rlly fucking good
@@astloom8903used mice are gross
@@astloom8903 No hyperscroll.
@@xavier8499 wait i don't know g502 get refresh, is it better than GPRO?
I watch basically every LTT video, mostly on the day they come out.
I watch your stuff every now and then, then usually a few in a row, often keyboard or mouse related, also in for the "this months tech under $XX" videos.
Didn't know you "made" your own mouse, but nice to see it was indeed not just a branding on an okay mouse, seems more and more people are learning that's not the best idea, you damage your name that way.
Personally i'd never buy your mouse, but not because it's yours, but because of the shape, i basically only like mice with that lip ledge under your thumb, and slightly more shaped to my right hand, but that's it really.
Nice job, and i can imagine having a fellow TH-camr rate/review your stuff can be pretty nerve wracking, if they like it at all, and there's always a chance they got a faulty product, however good your QC is, every now and then some slip through the cracks that have an issue. Like he had with the new AMD CPU recently.
I had that with the last mouse i bought, the Logitech G502 Lightspeed, the mouswheel was VERY of center or incorrectly weighted to if you let it go with the heaviest part anywhere but at the bottm it would immediately auto scroll down, super annoying, returned it the next day and got a new one sent out that was fine.
Honestly that was an awesome favor for Linus to do. You couldn't review it yourself, and while we know you wouldn't stick your name on a dogwater product, the biggest tech channel reviewing your own custom variant of the mouse objectively with machine validated numbers and resulting in an endorsement is the nat20 result.
I like the RandomFrankP-ness of the video.
I'm not interested in gaming mice, but congrats all the same Frank. :) And as for Linus - no question he gave your Pulsar mouse a very fair shake. Good on you Frank!
It’s nice to see y’all building off each other and keeping it real! Even when there are small points of contention, addressing them in a mature way is great to see!
Glad to see LTT reviewing your first product. Congrats, seems like you and pulsar put out something awesome
Frank has a couple more products than just this mouse.
@@Odd_Cinderellaand what would those be?
I remember starting off watching your videos around the time you were opening the amazon returns and to now see you collaborating with another company to produce your own gear is just awesome. And it's made even more awesome by one of the biggest tech youtubers not only reviewing it but actually giving it praise. Congrats go to you, you've definitely earned it!
the fact that they got the 2nd mouse right after frank is INSANE
Honestly pretty sweet seeing frank all giddy about his product getting reviewed 😂
I watched the review and was Frankly impressed, too bad i'm not looking for a mouse right now, but i cant say i wasn't tempted. good job man!
I love how real this video felt. Haven't seen you this joyful in such a long time. Hope the mouse thing succeed man!
The Writer knew exactly what he was doing when he wrote Randomfrankpness.
Without a doubt whether it was an accident or was on purpose, the x2 mini RFP edition is a goated mouse. give credit where credit is due props to you Frank and Pulsar.
true😂 linus kinda not enthusiast enough for mice. auto pro to gpro x superlight or razer 😅
i have the very first wireless mouse they made. and im proud of the company
I gotta say, you took the joke and the review’s criticisms with class. Great job, Franky. 😂
Love your channel. Love the real world experience testing. Don't mind or expect you to have a bunch of lab resources and equipment.
I mean you are the Guy that got me into Pulsar and they do really make good products. I've been using the V2 Wirelesss FE Edition 0819/1000 ever since it came out and I love it.
I was nervous for you when I first sat down to watch the LTT video. Fun then watching your reaction, when I knew you were gonna be fine. You never came back to it in the reaction, but when Linus wondered whether you noticed the crappy performance of the O2 you'd already potentially answered it at 14:36 of your reaction. Whether they adjusted the Dbounce in the Core software or not. If you did change and the issue went away that could explain why?
They've got the gear for fancy testing, but you sat and used it for a while and adjusted it to work well.
I loved the fact that Linus reviewed your mouse and I was ansious to see your reaction on it :D Glad you posted! :D
I'm an occasional viewer of your channel, and not that big of a mouse geek, but this looks promising. All the best for your sales, although it certainly doesn't look like you need it considering they're all sold out in Asian markets.
