My favorite part of David's commentary is how he insults electronics. It is so unusual not to hear how terrible things are.
Put them in their place*
Just think if Gamers Nexus or IGN gave him a job........lol
Steve could certainly use a professional electronics insulter.
Today he was an absolute gentleman to the electronic devices.
@@buggerlugz6753 i would be more inclined to watch their channels just to hear the insults.
Its a pity that PeakDo isn't available. I've always wanted to be able to wirelessly play on my PC while sitting in front of it on a terrible tiny screen with horrible controllers.
Yeah, it's pretty rough. Even a jailbroken PS Vita streaming games via Moonlight (especially with additional capacitive triggers for R2/L2 and R3/L3) is significantly more impressive than this abomination.
That said, I do like what they're attempting to do. The quality and range needs to be improved quite significantly before it would become a worthwhile product, however.
@@radicalraccoon I remember back in the day jailbreaking PSP's and running them through a monitor for my kids to game on, that was micro HDMI to the yellow, white, red plugs as I recall.. I think peakdo is trying to fix something that ain't broke, but I agree with you that it looks interesting and maybe in time we'll get a better product..
😂
The idea is pretty great. It's like a steam deck with pc hardware. You just have to be in the same room as the pc. You can play your pc games laying on your bed! What more do you want?
@@pinakijana9479 but why not just get a steamdeck?
wow!! Dawid, I have to say, Anna is better at getting products than you are. I mean, a product that doesn't exist! That is just next level.
Haha I thought everyone was gonna be mad about that pick 😂 …
Good one 😂
And i liked despite the short distance of the wireless HDMI.
@@AnnaDoes great selection, gotta get more colorful speakers
it's out of this world!
That's actually the coolest Bluetooth speaker I've seen in quite some time.
They have a few other speakers too. There is the Venus (I have on on my desk because I went through a GravaStar phase) which is a tiny little guy that follows in a similar but cuter design...and then there's the Mozart which I hate more than words can describe.
and if it sounds better then the UE Boom that's pretty good priase.
I agree! They look great.
Look great but 230 quid ? Frack offff !
Yep, I like it as well, but the asking price is way too much for the budget - minded (myself included).
PeakDO was easy to find. They have a range of products, but this device appears to be a prototype, which Dawid just tested "in the field" for them.
The last product they were probably looking for your feedback before they launched it. Which is awesome. Hopefully they can fix that range and haptic feedback before they roll it out. Looked like a promising product!
Im more curious how they are even allowed to just put joycon rails on their device without getting sued to hell, maybe someone could make a portable pc that just loooks like a switch lol.
@@someguy9175 it's probably made in china that's they can just add those rails
What’s honestly the point of streaming games to a mobile device when you can only do it at home, where you can just play them at the real device? Makes absolutely no sense.
@@jaredchampagne2752 probably for toilet gamers
@@jaredchampagne2752 it's for games that has a lot of grinding/farming and generally for any single player games cause back pain is really not fun
Anna nailed those picks. Impressive to get not a prelaunch product, but a prelaunch nonexistant product.
I want Dawid to keep doing this. Just a running series of "shit I said yes to..." This is excellent content. It allows him to make fun of stuff and he doesn't seem miserable. Fantastic!
He keeps saying how crappy all this stuff is, but we all know he loves it 🤫
When bad ideas are executed nicely
Those two things don't have to be mutually exclusive. He could love the stuff and it could be crappy all at the same time :)
The Switch monitor idea is awesome, yet can't have the need for a battery pack. If it came close to matching the monitor quality of the Switch OLED, I'd buy it. Would most likely be a $500+ dollar product though so maybe not.
@@deadly_dave Like Daikatana.
Hes a techie they love tech ideas bad or good
Just an FYI on the speaker; the mid-range driver is on the front too, behind the tweeter. The one on the back side is not actually a driver, it's a passive radiator; it will simply move back and forth (similar to a low-range speaker or subwoofer) with the frequency the rest of the unit is making, which helps amplify the low-end. It's not powered and has no coil/magnet. Often used on better-quality bluetooth speakers and space-constrained subwoofers.
Hi Dawid,
Just wanted to say I love your videos and please don't stop yourself from being 'not nice' to products in the future! Your commentary on preinstalled VDs is one of my favourite things to look forward to in every video you make.
Thanks! I really appreciate the nice comment. Don’t worry, I’m sure “mean Dawid” will be back soon. 😂
@@DawidDoesTechStuff love you too Ur awesome
Honestly the PeakDo handheld is intriguing, depending on the price and if they could boost the range a bit... If it were priced reasonably, I wouldn't mind picking one up to play Skyrim or something while laying in bed (my PC is on the other side of my bedroom). Wonder if it has the ability to send audio input back to the PC, so you could plug in a headset and talk on Discord for example.
oh definetly. it already has a usb connection for the input, sending some audio along shouldnt be a problem for a company that specializes in high bandwith low latency wireless signalling.
So glad you made another one of these. Love to see it as a monthly series!
We’ll try our best to get them out on a monthly bases. They are just surprisingly complicated to organize.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff hey man thanks for the heart. Love your content. But yeah I understand it’s probably difficult to make it monthly when the shipping can vary from 2 weeks to never actually arriving.
9:17 I love how he says theres a magnet inside and the thing twitches as if it was ready to fall off on cue, was laughing my butt off.
Honestly those pomodoro timers seem well made and I can imagine them being super useful for students and such
You should pick the top 3 of the weekly bad products lineup for our entertainment. I like it!
I've Reported the Spam! Have you?
Thanks for reporting the spam. We ran a bot scan earlier which deleted over 160 bot comments from just today but keep reporting those comments whenever you can. We run the scan multiple times a day but those bots be PERSISTENT..
@@AnnaDoes These bots would be really easy for youtube to stop before they even got in the door, but youtube does nothing -- it makes me wonder if they're making money off them somehow...
@@fred_derf totally agree. Dawid suspects the same. It’s like TH-cam deliberately doesn’t want to deal with them.
I was starting to think you guys reported me for spam. I only want the spam Idea's of the bad products.
9:25 they are maybe made for productivity , but for the design and ease of use side , they'd be perfect as cooking timers ♥
"a little package" for Dawid.
Great stuff ,funniest but serious reviews, from a good tech channell , i love it.
The black usb dongle looking thing which was packaged with the peakdo is for transmitting the Joycon input to Host machine
All those analogies about the MARS BT speaker were spot on. XD
3:02 If you see a weird thing that's kinda speaker-ish somewhere other than the front, it's probably a passive radiator. It mirrors the powered speaker motions by the magic of air pressure in a sealed enclosure.
The PeakDo thing reminds me of a prototype laptop that passed through work; I was responsible for selling it on e-bay and it was one hell of a thing to even describe, I think there was one English word on the casing somewhere (It was "Aladdin" or something similarly evocative and useless as a search string), several numbers corresponding to nothing, and a few labels in an Oriental language I do not read, but they were clearly just inspection tags. I eventually ended up using information from the BIOS, as it did actually _work_ and thus I was able to confirm it was a prototype thanks to the giant "NOT FOR PRODUCTION" warning in the said BIOS. It was in every way otherwise an unremarkable device quite like its contemporaries in form and capacities, so I know nothing further.
PayPal suddenly owning Honey explains a lot - like the fact it has saved me enough money to buy a generic packet of mints, in all the years I have had it installed, and the thousands I have spent.
Really depends on what you use it for. I use it to order pizza online a lot and probably a good 70% of the time it’s able to get me decent discounts. Shopping for random stuff online, not as much, but sometimes on certain websites. I think it helps to use brand’s sites instead of shopping sites like Amazon because they’re more likely to be running exclusive deals with email codes and stuff.
I always felt like honey was just a front end for data collection to see what products you buy and test what ads are effective on you. Idk, seems really sketchy.
@@lenshibo That's probably why I never saved anything, I have 99% of trackers disabled, scripts blocked, and FarceBoook etc, banished to purgatory.
@@ianemery2925 Thats great practice. Every website and service nowadays wants to know everything about you so they can profit off of your very existence. real scary world we live in
@@lenshibo It can be an eye opener, I have found Farcebook trackers injected INSIDE supposedly secure payment pages for banks, government sites, AND food delivery services.
My bank removed it after I notified them, but Dominos didnt, so I no longer use Dominos (UK) online ordering service.
This does mean that they may have eventually removed it, but in their case it was particularly bad - the payment process WOULD FAIL, if the farcebook tracking script was blocked; and I did give them a year to act.
If the price drops a little on that Ovum of Obliteration, I might get one. I dig that look.
The Tyrannical Testicle!
The Nut of Nothingness
The peakdo is a prototype device. A bunch of other China based companies have sent their version out to tech companies. Those other versions come with Windows or Linux depending on your preference.
Dawid, I'm not sure how you do it, but among all of the tech and PC channels, you found a unique formula that works very well.
Absolutely adore this series, Dawid! Thanks for testing out a bunch of cra... I mean, a bunch of fine, upstanding products!
congrats for 500vids keep your content coming and best of luck for the future!
17:33 I think I know what's happening here: They seem to be a company that sell wireless transmitters and I believe they just put together that product as a disguise for you to review the wireless hdmi transmitter for them! Lol
"The gonad of destruction" and "ovary immolation" had me dying
Ok I love the look of that speaker and if it was closer to $100 or preferably less I would totally buy 2 to use as desk speakers. Which I really feel these are more for a desktop than for casually bringing around like you would with a bluetooth speaker. Heck that should just make a basic $150 2 pack that are wired only because the style is nice and bluetooth gets overraited.
i thing 2 of them on my desk would look better than my current Nommo Chroma. Only problem is all my periphials, webcam Kiyo Pro, blackwidow pro 3, basilisk ultimate, gigantus chroma mouse mat, nairi ultimate HP, seiren elite mic, Tomahawk Atx Case with Asrock X570 TAICHI RAZER mobo and razer cooler and fans. So yeah razer fanboy but i love its integration with games, also have wiz light nanoleaf panels all integrated and razer light strips on back of monitors for full immersion and in my secret labs magnus desk
fk it im gonna buy 2 of them and use them they look 2 fkin good and send all my system blue.
lol i even have my previous 3 razer keyboars and mice wall mounted and plugged in and have jars full of keys with cheap light strips in the jar on shelves above my monitors. i have my own small gaming room that used to be an outdoor shed but we had a conservatory built and now its inside the house and gonna be gaming room so all my collectibles will be wallas lit up by rgb strips. lol living the dream.
telling u my whole life story but thats why i love channels like this great community
this is hands down the most entertaining tech channel out there
These little reviews are pretty cool. I like them!
I've never seen somebody so repulsed by the styrofoam sound. That was hilarious 😂
I enjoy these kinds of video's because they are different and we get to see items we've never heard of before. The chance that they will work or not is fun.
Brilliant as usual, down to earth review of random crap.
I'd actually use those Pomodoro timers!! Setting the 25m/5m timer patter, on a device which doesn't provide any other distractions, would mean I could just leave my phone and everything else in a different room.
I love this series. Its fun to see random stuff and hear you trash talk it. Or see you get excited for something to find out it's a burning pile of trash lol
I love this series. Please continue this.
By far my favorite tech-tuber. Send this guy more weird stuff to review!!
Wanted to say I really enjoy these videos, and hope you don't run out of random crap to accept anytime soon! 😂
I like these videos, Dawid! They help satisfy my curiosity of random, suspiciously cool , but probably crap, technology I see online.
Just like the kind of stuff we all love to buy but regret it about 15 minutes after unboxing🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Holycurative9610 Exactly!
I know these take a bunch of times consisting of many shots but certainly you have among the best box opening passive aggressiveness in the tech space. I mean Austin Evans still doesn't quite hit the same levels of sass and tact and he does it all the time . Fun times Dawid
The face you make when turning on the speaker hahaha love your work, all your work m8 xxx
Please keep doing these they're great
Man, that PeakDo thing looks awesome if not limited. I'd toss money at them if it came out at a price in line with the limitations.
for some reason this is already my favorite series, sure hope you get more random cra... i mean, great products send your way xD
Most reviewers are mostly positive, so it's a lot of fun to hear the creative ways you insult everything wrong with a product.
MORE RANDOM TECH DOHIKIES!!!!! Love these types of vids.
I love these videos with the random products. Probably my favorite segment you do now. Keep it up! -Travis Lorden (one of your Patreon supporters!)
I like seeing all of the weird stuff companies send you.
Love this series!
Technically, H is Henry, a measure of inductance. Therefore they aren't really promising any playtime. 🤔
Man, the nicknames for the bluetooth speaker had me going. I was cracking up so badly.
I’ve never seen any of your other videos, but I do appreciate the positivity.
I love that little silver timer, those increments are perfect for my cooking !
Yes! I love these videos, so much fun
You can't fool us David.
We all know you love it.
As a long time subscriber and viewer I'm so happy to see you blowing up man and doing well.
Gravastar makes some seriously cool audio devices, highly recommended.
these videos are just so entertaining
I like the speaker! if they were a bit cheaper or sold as a set, I'd get some for my computer desk
@16:00 the haptics going ham is normal in my experience if you use betterjoy. That's why I ended up using joytokey and, while yeah, it's a hassle, I very puch prefer that
Yesss! All the yes’! Love when David does these videos 💚
I bought the Orion while it was crowd funded. It works OK. It definitely helps my old eyes. The screen has pretty flat color though. I think it's slightly damaged own of my joy-cons. It doesn't physically connect to any pins other than power when it's mounted on the switch.
We need more of these random tech videos. And bring back Mean Dawid
I enjoy most how critical you are and how funnily you roast most of this random tech stuff man 🤣 no need to play nice.
seeing dawid just not say anything because he didn't want to insult hardware was funny
He probably didn't want PayPal to fine him $2500 for hate speech.
I like the concept behind the home streaming screen, if not the execution. Though I have an Ayn Odin which basically does that but better.
that "Midwooferything" is actually a passive radiator, mid/low driver is under the grill.
OMG YEA, been waiting for another one od these vids!!
Yaaay! Waaay better than reviewing product intended for oil barrons. 😂🤣
I loved that speaker design!!
I like how the CC captured it as 'Midwifery' in stead of 'mid-woofery'. Makes the product that much more interesting.
That Peak-Do Switch thingy is a really cool idea, not very practical, but a cool idea none the less. The main problem is that I already have a Switch and a Steam Deck, so I don't know that I would ever use something like this. I don't need to stream what is already portable and the streaming range isn't long enough to be worth it. A stand alone laptop shell would work better. I have seen laptop shells that connect via usb and have a keyboard and track pad. Put a bluetooth/usb dongle keyboard and track pad combo with a wireless HDMI screen in one package and it would be a dream come true for certain tech jobs where you have to connect to many computers. You could take your whole set up wherever you needed to be and connect without getting involved in the mess of cables, do what you need to do, than unplug your usb and HDMI dongles and go to the next one.
Love your content my man. Ive been very ill lately and your videos always make my day
Feel better Volsy.
@@ADZ1LL4 thank you!
The Peakdo is something that LTT reviewed a while ago. Not this exact product but something else they made.
Assuming Peak Do sent you their low end HDMI thingy, it's only got a range of about 12ft
They do seem to have a 100ft model though.
It's a shame the whole kit doesn't exist I could use something like that (although it's probably more expensive than a steam deck
Oh man my day just got 10x better!
Honey: takes a minute to test 3 codes.
"You already have the best price available!"
Thanks Honey!
I actually kinda like that Orion screen thing for the Switch. I already have aftermarket joycons like the ones on the Peak-Do (they're great btw), so having a big handheld isn't foreign to me. Basically it can be like a Switch tablet.
I don't know why but I want that silver pomadaro timer. Maybe like for BBQ, like set the 5 minute timer and then flip when it goes off or something.
the bluetooth speaker looks cool if your into that style...i can also see the timers being useful and are way better than the old school dial type timer that just made a ''ding'' sound when time was up
They actually have some better dial timers out there! Mine's a deathstar and makes the sound of it firing when time is up. But I can see the tick timer being useful in certain cases. Definitely seems better for cooking where you often need more precise timing
Though, for daily use that's less reliant on 100% precision, like the pomodoro technique, it seems easier to just use a dial timer since it doesn't require frequent charging
The Orion is pretty picky over the battery pack / cable used to power it. A battery pack with USB C to USB C and fast charging normally does the trick. Many had this issue on launch (IndieGoGo launch) as they didn't specify any of this. I have one and use an Anker 20w USB c-c output and never had a connection issue.
If you have more of these, I would like to see it, but don't hold back on the judgements casue it's refreshing and funny, I just burst out laughing on that sneeze at the end
The peakdo handheld would actually be really cool, but if it costs about the same as a steamdeck it won't really make sense for most applications.
2:57 on the front is tweeter and midwoofer on the back is "Passive radiator (speaker)"
0:13 Couldn't help but notice that Anna is an Antlion ModMic enjoyer. Good choice!
Keep good videos coming don’t worry about hardware feelings…
I get so excited for anything Dawid
another dawid video, today is good :)
I love this series
Linus reviewed the peakdo hdmi receiver a year ago, I'm guessing they are just trying different implementations and the handheld is just a prototype. I must say they got 25m of (unobstructed) range so maybe it will be better in the future.
I think I can resume this as "Good ideas with poor execution". Which is a shame. Excellent video as usual.
PS: A little disappointed you didn't try anything crazy with them...
There's always follow up videos for that~
I love this series!
Always interesting to get products that don't exist.
6:35 That feeling when Google gaslights you and makes you question your own sanity. Does the thing physically in front of me exist, or does it not exist!?
If you put the Crazy Cool Speaker in the brown shipping box you magically gain 5 additional hours of battery time. Induction or something.
Oh, that large black Corsair shipping box in the background !!
Dawid, do you also hate the sound of wet Terrycloth towels when twisting them to dry up your ears? That's my weakness. Nails on a blackboard on the other hand is absolutely cool for me.
Gravastar makes some nice stuff. I have been eyeing their wireless buds
Great reviews! If it sucks, it megasucks- love the vid!!!!
