This is what we call great value for a great price!
💀
There's no way.. 🤣
Customer relations been good.
Good on them for listening and not just making shitty products and selling them for more than they're worth
I had to check this account because I couldn't believe that the actual Walmart account left a comment.
The fact that you can walk into a basic Walmart and come home with decent gaming stuff is a solid W in my book, especially for more rural towns.
But why 😱😱😱
@@drueckglueck9918 Yeah, Amazon works everywhere.
Amazon is (near) global, as long as you have internet. Walmart is only in 24 countries, out of the total ~195
@@mushieslushie Nah, it doesnt. I dont have access to amazon.
Also in some rural areas amazon deliveries can take up to 2 weeks even with prime. You don't have 1 or 2 day prime delivery everywhere. Walmart has a greater presence with their stores across the country.
Im actually really pleasantly surprised. Its DAMN refreshing to see cheap(er) stuff done so much better than we're used to.
And some of it is really nice. Like that mouse? I want that mouse. It's an awesome entry level mouse and I have no need for extra level. Maybe that monitor isn't exactly bee's knees but curved screens run for like a thousand bucks, this is really, really "not too bad".
Curved screens are not 1000 dollars. There are tons of option for around 200 that are curved.
Onn really does give good value for the money. I don't think I've ever had a "well, you get what you pay for" moment with them - it all works well enough that I never give it a second thought, which is really the best you can hope for from a budget brand.
Everything they got is great but their mouses. Their pc mouses are HORRIBLE.
Got an onn monitor where the switch to change the sources and basically do anything with the monitor was broken immediately. I do however still use it as a backup monitor and it’s great
ONN is the worst budget brand. Go TCL or Hisense. Not overly expensive. Just bought a 4k tv for 176$.... Better than any onn tv I've ever purchased. Onn will last you a couple months. longer if you don't have kids or pets. Other brands will last you a couple at least.
@@iYodofr, had a projector just one day stop working. Mouse middle button stopped working. The only thing onn brand I have that still works is the keyboard
The microphone on that headset is surprisingly good. VERY compressed, but not tinny or boomy like most headset mics. Wow.
I really enjoyed that Adam went through the effort to optimize the microphones as well, to show how good they can be. From Linus' test, it sounded like just a waste of plastic and electronics, but they actually sounded half-decent when Adam had turned the gain down.
What's the music they use for speaker testing?

"I don't wanna sit on the poo chair" while basically crying is my single favorite Linus quote from all the years.
Notice both face is totally red? LOL Dude I laugh so hard.
I had one of those chairs when I bought my first ps3 at launch. I remember it smelling terrible then, but it was a blast to use.
Why did they go with that choice when there are so many others for not much more in price
I am so glad that they have not come up with smell-o-vision XD

They've been selling that exact rocker chair since I was like 8 years old. 20 years ago.
Yeah I distinctly remember one of my friends as a kid had one
My dad had one but our cat ripped it up
@@tradeka4206 Same. Kinda made me want one, because I was amazed by what it could do.
"Wait, you can plug headphones into your chair and hear the game? This is the Future."
1 year later if anyone sees this, i just picked up a 24 inch monitor at 165 hz for 100 bucks from walmart, and its been very good for the week ive had it.
It would have been cool if you guys tested the hdmi cable's since you have the machines there.

I genuinely have good experience with ONN monitors
ME TOO! Love my monitor.
@@KrunchTastic can you play a ps5 on it?
@@shamonfeaster9809 I would think so
@@shamonfeaster9809 why couldn't you, it's just a monitor after all. Anything that supports HDMI will work on it basically, I'd imagine.
@@shamonfeaster9809 But the selling point of consoles is big picture gaming isn't it? Considering that a massive TV these days is cheaper than some gaming monitors... I'd just go for one of those. And yes i've tried both. Of course games like Escape from Tarkov or Ready or Not don't make sense in a big TV with a controller, but like 90% of console oriented games are so much better on a big TV.
I got that X Rocker chair in like 2006 or so. It was a christmas gift and I remember thinking it was the coolest thing in the world for like 2 weeks. Then the speakers broke and I realized it was super uncomfy. The fact that they still make it is astonishing.
Same here, took me back to the good ol’ days when if you owned a 1st gen iPod mp3 player and a pair of Heely’s you were the shittt LMFAOO ahh good times man back when shit was simple and fun

Missed opportunity not buying the cheap and "premium" HDMI cables and not running them through the cable tester
I have a feeling they put the cable tester into the Lab and it's currently running some tests, so it couldn't be used. But that's just a theory
@@yourfavouritepony im hoping for a walmart cable test vid/pt2 of this vid where they test the onn. cable stuff.
Especially considering when the video debuted showing that equipment, they indicated they would be testing cables included with monitors. I hope we get to see a follow up, but it would have been a nice ~15 second deviation to say what standards the included cables were compatible with.
they are good opportunities to buy them
100%
Linus hit the nail on the head when he mentioned his 13-14 year old self. These products are fine for the price and likely perfect for kids. Im not buying my messy ass child a logitech g915, all gamers have to struggle at the beginning, and this full setup is beyond better than what most of us had in 2010s era pc gaming.
Literally the nicest peripheral in my oldest child’s setup is the monitor. And it’s ironically an Onn branded one. 1080p 165hz. Works just fine for her. I think it was like 150 bucks and she got it as a birthday gift last year.
@@rockking1379 yeah coming from an era where 720p was cool and I wasnt even aware you could go over 60hz which would have been useless anyways cause I was getting like 20 fps max, thats pretty cool to hear. Its amazing how there is affordable tech that used to be super high end.
@@cameronharvey4746 my oldest rocks a GTX 970 so I don’t think it can even spit out 165 fps in any game anyway. My son runs on a 1050 ti. And my youngest has a laptop because I literally have no where I could put another desk for her to have a full tower without my wife killing me. She gets like 30 fps in fortnite and that’s good enough for her because she’s only 5. She just wants to play games with us.
A lot of this stuff is better than the stuff I'm using right now lol. I'm still using a TN panel and a £10 "mechanical-feel" keyboard from 7 years ago with a damaged enter key (I'm using it until it breaks because it isn't that bad and it's fine considering I didn't pay much for it and it's lasted this long)
@@rockking1379 Bruh, I built my young brother a scrap PC from old parts I had, with my old gtx 780, the PC runs smooth and gets good FPS, now I upgraded his PC to 12th gen i5-12400f with the same GPU, he is getting 500+ fps in valorant high settings, He was happy before, but now he started to see that there are levels to it, he used the PC for 5 years with an old 3rd gen i7 with no issues and didn't know it can be better than this lol.
Something I think is interesting is that Dollarama is also getting into selling stuff for a gaming setup. Obviously since they are a dollar store they aren’t coming out with monitors and computers/computer parts and chairs, but they do have a store brand gaming mouse for 4$, and the other day I picked up some hdmi cables from there. Comparatively I think my Dollarama is kind of small so I don’t know what other gaming stuff they might have.
I bought a legion 5 from Walmart. $600 for a AMD Ryzen 5600h, a 3050 ti, and and performance boosting RGB. hope it works well! I love black friday.
great specs for 600
You probably wanna change out your power supply it's probably like 2 bucks and gonna blow up
@@deez50O0 its a laptop
@@Dragloxhat’s even worse, what you think laptops don’t have power supplies?
legion laptops are high quality and some of the best cooling for a laptop on the market, it has nothing to do with walmart. they are just the middle men in the deal. now for ONN specific items those are made by a company owned by walmart
Seriously appreciate the extra mic testing. I'm glad it got due credit.
"What makes the premium ones premium?"
"The price"
Dude got it figured out
Check 'em both with the cable tester!
AMAZING tutorial! One of the most comprehensive tutorials I've seen for anytNice tutorialng. Thanks so much!
i have this exact lamp in the video and I highly recommend it for a cheap light. Its really bright and VERY adjustable.
I used to work for Walmart in Bentonville, and one of my starting positions was support for all of these types of items. Since I was able to pull up all sorts of info about them, I was able to find out most of them are just rebrands from bigger tech companies. That’s why they look similar, and aren’t completely terrible (some of them anyways). For example, most of the Onn. SD cards are from PNY, and a lot of their TVs have been Hisense and TCL rebrands.
the monitor looks almost the same as my msi monitor for some reason. mine is va, linus saw it was at least not tn, so I guess it might also be va aka msi rebranded stuff?
i had an ONN usb drive a while ago that windows straight up reported as a PNY drive
The speakers look like rebranded Creative speakers lol
I used to work for an OEM, and I shipped stuff over there to your Bentonville HQ a lot. Fun times. You guys were really nice about making our market spacing exclusive. As far as I can tell, you still are. Thanks former Bentonville worker, for all your hard work and coolness.
Back over ten years ago a lot of their electronics were rebadged Funai. Funai fucking sucks. I used to work at a call center that did warranty and support for Funai. So much garbage tier e-waste. Nice to hear Walmart found a slightly better OEM.
I'd like to point out that they actually did spend the money on that website on purpose. Like all of Onn's puns, it's another one. It's "On to Tech!"
I don't know if that even qualifies as a website
They didn't spend much, it's just a download link. Which is also scary to have it auto download.
@@igeekone People should always have downloads set to ask for location so you can intercept before it starts. I don't know why it isn't default.
Thanks, I hate it.
I'd like to see yearly updates on videos like this and the cheap Amazon /eBay PC. Great knowledge to realistically build your own PC.

Im actually fairly impressed at the pricing of this setup. Not bad WM. When you have a kid you are wanting to build a setup for, and dont wanna spend 3-4k after pc desk monitor chair etc, this seems like a solid route
The kid gets to play on the floor.
I really like that floor lamp in the back
I was so excited by the "lower than expected" price ranges to see what the PC / PC parts came in at... such a shame Walmart stopped at peripherals :(
For real, considering that their gaming laptop offerings are actually pretty decent
WALLMART RTX4080 CONFIRMED
They actually do sell parts. I'm not sure why they didn't use one, or at least mention it and grab parts from storage to represent, because it's actually a pretty good place to buy PC parts since most folks don't know about it.
@@MinistryOfMagic_DoM I think the point was everything else is Walmart brand, not just something available at Walmart.
@@danieljensen2626 I don't think that XRocker chair is walmart brand though.

Basically every luxury brand ever
Yes. I work with high-end cars. Many of them have more quality issues than higher-production cars.
Ackshually, it's not EVERY brand.
loved this video format!
I haven’t used much of Walmart’s Onn brand. I bought a couple of their tv wall mounts. They’re nice really solid and have built in bubble levels. 😊
Honestly, it seems to me this stuff does exactly what it should. It's reasonably priced, does it's job decently and looks ok. 13 year old me used to buy bargain bin headsets, keyboards, Mice and speakers at the local electronics store to fit it in my budget. If my Parents had gotten me something like this equipment for Christmas i would have been damn happy. This is a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" situation where you could upgrade later when you have the money but there is no reason to rush since what you have does the job.
Yeah. 13 year old me would've LOVED to have a cheap headset sound this good for the mic. Back then, it'd basically sound like you're getting waterboarded when buying cheap headsets.
For budget, it definitely sounds and looks really solid.
I feel like you could find much nicer stuff for same price online though. I guess stores like these are convenient but man I´m glad I like to hunt around and am even comfortable buying used.
The only ones I would swap would be the speakers and monitor. The Creative Pebble 2 are around the same price and are really impressive for the price. And if you don’t care about the curved monitor, you can get a cheaper 27” high refresh rate like the MSi at Costco for $159
Except for the poo chair 🤣
@@ThatLaloBoy I don't know anything about either set of speakers, but I'll tell you (sitting here looking at my MSI costco monitor) that there are some trade offs. The monitor from ONN in the video is 1440p (they mention that at some point), but not high refresh I don't think. However my MSI is 1080p, but 144 hz, so I'd assume that it would depend on the use case. For gaming and content creation the MSI is likely a smidge better, but the ONN is likely better for content consumption and still decent for games. So if you want the higher resolution the ONN isn't going to be a horrible choice.
You can tell that PC parts are starting to become easier to find when LTT uploads more videos about builds. That said, I’m glad we got a follow up for the Walmart video.

I had 2 of those rocker chairs in high school in their early Xbox 360 days for LAN parties and they were good for back then but hold no market value anymore since their price has remained the same and quality worsened. I had 2 1080p Acer moniters I got for cheap with adapter cables to link audio to the chair and video to the monitor incase their Xbox was the older model without HDMI. Most people had headsets later on though. Made it easy since all they need to bring was the counsel controller and games I had spare power bricks for them. Had it on a coffee table against the back wall which was a perfect height for the chairs and the under part of the table was the perfect size to horizontally hold the counsels and game boxes out of the way and keep the cords hidden. It was essentially plug-n-play.
11:02 For your information, it is "LA pièce de résistance" 😂 Nice video you guys!
When they did the secondary test for the microphone without the clipping I was actually blown away when he was using it, aside from the slight noise the sound was really crisp, like I could listen to that in a video and not want to gouge my ears.
agreed, and either a cheap pop filter, or foam mic cover would make it even better.
@@CommodoreFan64 yeah aside from no mic arm that would be a perfectly cromulent streaming mic setup
@@reaperofburgers I don't stream, but if I did not have a Logitech USB Rock Band mic I picked up for $2(I grabbed 3 at once when I saw them in early 2020 right before coof) at the local goodwill, and added a foam filter and mini mic stand from Aliexpress for like $12 all in I use for Zoom calls with work, where no one has a problem hearing me, then this mic would be on my list for sure. So if you ever see a Rock Band Logitech mic at the thrift store for cheap, then grab it as they are really good quality, and they work on just about any modern OS without drivers.

Not going to lie. Low key I super enjoy watching Linus do reviews like this. I'm not sure the lure but definitely like these. Maybe because of Linus banter and the fact he has to suffer through things like this. It's just so enjoyable!
A comparison between their standard and "premium" cable run through the cable tester with an in-depth look at the differences (if there's any) would be nice eventhough I'm not even American nor have I ways to buy from Walmart, but interesting to see nonetheless
My guess would be it's a durability thing.
It's kinda a shame the cable tester doesn't make more appearances. I feel like we should get a test result for every cable that comes with any monitor they unbox.
@@Michael-zf1ko probably in the process of being moved to the labs set up area. They did however test a few amazon basics cables and such a while back and I assume those would come from the same factory as the Walmart budget ones.
Fun fact "Premium High Speed HDMI" is in fact a standard of HDMI. It is used to inform consumers that the cable capable of 4k at 60hz and High Dynamic Range; where as Standard HDMI could only do up to 1080 until 2009 and only 4k at 30hz and does not have the ability to do HDR.
The difference almost always is beefier shielding and some kind of connector plating, at least that is what is claimed.
"I don’t wanna sit on the poop chair..." is the best thing Linus has said all year.
I have quite a few of products from ONN. My dual monitor stand and TV mount are from them, and I gotta say, they’re pretty solid and have lasted me for awhile without signs of breaking. Definitely worth it if you’re trying to save some money.
the prefarted through chair is a smart thing.
I'm amazed at how decent everything was.
All the mics were usable. Yeah they all have their own issues, but they work and no one is gonna throw a fit if you join a meeting using them.
Actually if someone used the podcast mic i would genuinly be impressed how good it sounds... You can clearly hear its not your regular headset/laptop mic..
The webcam light was unusable and I'm not at all sure about ever using anything higher than 1080p as a webcam. Better to get a
*all* the mics? Sorry but , are you deaf?
That webcam microphone is literally painful to listen to even through speakers and even if it's not clipping. I'd kick/mute anyone who uses it, you don't do this to your worst enemy!
The headset microphone was also bad, though bearable, I gues...
Also, in my opinion as a singer, any semi-decent microphone should not be clipping while you're just talking, even when the volume is set at 100% (unless you applied insane 30dB gain)!
@@KenS1267 headset was fairly good even without changing anything, it was the camera mic and the stand alone one that needed redoing. And the one on the camera was still bad.
But the headset was surprisingly good for what it is, let alone how much it (didn't) cost.
@@LRM12o8 you have insanely high standards if you don't consider that Decent. That or your speakers are hard to listen to. I never said it was good, audiophile gear, recording studio equipment, anything. I said it was usable.
I really hope they will be testing that hdmi cable with the cable tester... maybe a short?
First thing I thought as well!
Lol
Yeah
I bought an 8k Onn HDMI cable for my PC it seems to work well it does 4K at 120hz supposedly I would like to see a test on one it’s surprisingly good qaulity
Why do we keep upvoting the weird lady with a bunch of medical scams videos? Can everyone stop promoting predatory people? Not all checkmarks should be at the top of the comment list.
I heard Walmart is where the cheap stuff come from. Im not familiar with american culture.
watching this at the New Year's eve...Happy New Year from Romania =P
Iva actually purchased their Onn TV mounts, and they’re not half bad! Also, Walmart sells Onn-branded HDMI 2.1 cables for around $15 a piece. And they’re really good! I’ve got a few of them, and they’ve held up well!
I've been using that exact same "podcast mic" for actually five years now. I'm glad you guys got good results with it. They're sometimes hit or miss.
I genuinely would have loved if Walmart was making this stuff when I got into pc gaming a decade ago. It’s perfect for a teenager getting peripherals off of their summer job money.
It still is!
Just perfectly described my situation and yea… that’s what I did

For months my Walmart had a whole pallet of those stupid chairs, and I've always wondered how bad they were because the stack never got any smaller
Tbf they're not PC gaming chairs, they're meant for console gaming. I used to have one back in the day for PS3 but probably a better one because it didn't smell like poop XD
I used to have 2 of almost that exact same chair (also from Walmart). They're really not even bad for console gaming. Definitely not worth the price and it's less comfy than a bean bag chair would be, but not horrible. I think the main problem is the price. I remember mine were $50 each on sale but yeah for $100 not at all worth.
I work at my local Walmart and we were getting a bunch of these around the holidays. They just sat around for months, as a featured item, nearly untouched until February, when I assume they just got rid of them to make space for the giant teddy bears/Easter stuff.
I wonder if the smell would've gone away after a couple days. Still wouldn't be worth the money.
CRI is a rating of how close light is to sunlight. Florescent lighting for example is known for having an incredibly poor CRI as it only emits spikes of light and not a spectrum like incandescent. Incandescent is till basically the standard as it was nearly perfect compared to sunlight. LEDs are a large jump from florescent but still behind incandescent more emitting similar to a TV.
CRI is a rating of how close a light is to a black body emitter because its physically impossible to heat a filament to 5600K sunlight is used as the standard. For warm lights they are compared to a 3200K incandescent. This is why 2700K lights only have CRI of 98 or so

Yes and no. With the volume set low, it does sound acceptable, but it shouldn't be clipping like that ever. Any semi-decent microphone should still be able to deliver a clean signal at 100% volume without gain. You might need the volume to hear yourself over game audio and others in the chat and if you can't get it that way, your only other option (short of installing special mixer software) is turning everything down in the windows sound mixer, then raising the system volume way above normal level and that's a royal pain in tha butt!
@@LRM12o8 dude, I used to have a mic that recorded sound as accurate as a potato would. This is absolutely top level stuff for me
that's true
09:40 - That's pretty much the exact opposite of what a high CRI means. I literally thought you were describing poor-CRI lamps while saying that. Good CRI output not only means a wide spectrum, but also one that is as close as possible to black-body radiation (like the sun, or filament bulbs).
Yeah, as an avid flashlight enthusiast I was screaming when he said that. He literally described it opposite of how it is. You can even see it when they show the results from their spectrometer.

This was a top tier video. Entertaining, simple, affordable products 10/10
One of the best because real people are going to be buying and using this stuff unlike an Xbox One Dev edition
3:25 I would like to see ALL display cables included with monitors put through the cable tester in future reviews. So we can know if we should just toss the included ones or not! You've got the hardware, seems like something for Labs to cover :D
That’s a good one! Of course only a reeeealy small quantity of all the available monitors on the market could be tested, but it would be pretty interesting though
No 😳😳😳
I’m 35 and I visited my sister in college this past year and during the tour of the campus I shouted in the packed dining hall “I just lost the game” and a wave of groans swept across the room. I was saddened to see such little progress in 20 years.
I had one of those gaming chairs for a while honestly was really comfy for me for a long time
"Cheap, crappy computer stuff was $20 when I was a kid."
Well, advancements in technology have allowed products to become even cheaper and crappier.
Seriously, budget speakers from 10-15-20 years ago ROCK. I use a 2+1 creative set right now that's probably older than 50% of the people that watched this video. They still sound great imo.
@@OKANGUVEN99 As Dankpods said, good audio stuff stays good
@@OKANGUVEN99 Audio stuff didnt got much improvement throughout the years, my 12yo headphones are literally jag
@@OKANGUVEN99 I think I have the same 2.1 speakers ($30 in 2007!). In my case the connector from the subwoofer to the speakers broke last year, so I bought other speakers. However the new ones didn't have bass, so I still use the subwoofer from the creative speakers and it works great
@@noisycarlos same broke for me aswell a couple of years ago, I got it fixed and now if I position the cable right it works.
I am not gonna lie, I have A LOT of ONN stuff, and honestly, it has all treated me extremely well. I almost bought the keyboard about a year ago when I was looking to upgrade, but found a smaller keyboard that was very nice used for the same price. I do however use their "gaming" webcam for my streams! And its okay! Not great, but it was over half the cost of a Logitech c920. I exclusively use their USB cables for micro usb, C and apple chargers. They're extremely cheap and good quality. I have a onn car phone mount, it has lasted 3 years now going strong and was only $5. My gf has a phone mount we got at microcenter for $15 that only lasted a year. I also have a pair of their wireless earbuds, the battery lasts FOREVER, and they've been working with me since 2017 when I was working at UPS, all the way to today! Those were $5 at the time, and are now, I believe $10? I also bought an onn gaming mouse that I used when I first built my PC. My gf uses it now and actually prefers it over the Logitech mouse I gave to her... I dont know why though, but thats lasted 2 years now! Her brother also has an onn tv that has lasted 3 years now. I have more than that, but I cant think of a time their product has disappointed. I never went into buying their stuff with the thought I was buying top tier products. I always thought they'd be things that would work for a month and that would be it, but I was wrong! They're cheaply built products that work well honestly. I do plan to keep buying their stuff. I have a good setup now, so I dont need anything more now, but if you're tight on budget buy onn stuff, seriously! It's surprisingly great!
Onn really does give good value for the money. I don't think I've ever had a "well, you get what you pay for" moment with them - it all works well enough that I never give it a second thought, which is really the best you can hope for from a budget brand.
i have the same monitor that they have in this video-- AND we have a 55 inch 4k tv by them that was under 300 dollars. tbh the only thing i don't like by them are their headphones/headsets, but other than that i love most of their products; cheap, good enough quality, can find them practically anywhere
The funny thing is that I got that mousepad for 9.99 at five below instead of 20.
how is it? i imagine not better than just buying a qck lol
lmao i got it for an actual $5
The second mic test good job
I’m actually very impressed by that podcast mic, actually sounded decent for being so cheap
Microphones are cheap. You can easily get a very good mic from razer for 50 bucks.
I actually bought this mic back in summer. It’s terrible, the build quality feels decent in parts, but the the microphone broke like in 5 months, the sound quality backs it up but it’s still bad mic for the price. You can get way better ones for a few bucks more.
@@leonardoc.1584 I know, I have it too lol. It's fine at first but the quality worsens overtime
He had to open the extension cord after he saw 2.4 lol this why I love this channel
Love your videos for like 12 years tbh
I'm using my fiancé's computer and he's been using the Onn speakers for a while now, they hold up really well and produce really good sound. He used to use the same microphone as well but recently switched to a J-lab because the microphone just stopped working and it hasn't even been a year yet. I live in a very rural town in Arkansas close to the heart of Walmart in Bentonville, and we often get really good gaming products at local stores. Several 1k setups that can come with everything included but the specs are so laughably bad that people just buy the monitors and piece together their own setup in a special way. Really like this video :)
Linus casually dropping the game on millions of people 🎮💀
I was going for years and this mofo plops this on me randomly. It should be illegal!
yeap it has been years and suddenly game has been lost
Yeah... Ffs, I was doing so well for a couple of years until now. Thank you, Linus
classic meme for old farts, love it.
I lose the game every 5-12 days
The X-Rocker must have really taken a dive. I have the original and, while the ergonomics are abysmal, it has 2 speakers plus subs with a 2 amp DC input and sounds great.
I was thinking the same thing! I had the original back in the early 2000s. They were also bigger. I honestly loved it for playing console games on the TV.
My brother got the 2.1 for Christmas a couple years back and i hate it, it even has bumps sticking out of it, it also has a built in vibrator when bass is played through it.
Tbh I've completely stopped using gaming chairs now.
My brother still has our original ones and they’re awesome. New ones look a lot worse.
I was wondering why they bought that chair for PC gaming because I used to have a similar one for CONSOLE gaming years ago. It was pretty nice to have speakers right next to you while playing on PS3 back in the day. Unfortunately for some reason ours didn't last long.
still sucks. i cant sit in the thing for 5 minutes without back pain. and when the main feature of your product doesnt work, thats an automatic fail for the product overall
The podcast mic is actually great. I bought it for a friend who had been using some atrocious headset mic for years and it's been amazing with a bit of tweaking.
I used to have one of those XRocker chairs (my dad won it in a golf tournament probably 6 years ago), and the internal sound system broke after about 2 weeks of use
10/10 product
Did it smell?
not from what I remember, but I would not have put it past that chair to have not smelled at one point
2:35 LINUS CMON I HAD A STREAK GOING
I was like 1 year and a half in a streak...
being honest, i'm genuinely surprised by how oddly good quality a lot of wally world's peripherals are. considering how bad their OVERPOWERED gaming pc line was (and the fact that we shamed them so bad, they outright stopped manufacturing PC's) maybe, just maybe, they can actually manufacture their own brand of components.
Well, more likely, they can cut some amazing deals with decent chinese companies, as even the "higher tier" companies will cut WalMart a huge deal, due to the sheer massive increase of volume of sales they'd get.
@@knyte6426 though I haven't even been happy with their USB cables and other misc junk they've sold under onn for years.
I stayed away from Onn, but I've always been happy with _performance_ of *overpriced* blackweb brand at Walmart.
It's like it's always been: you got to know what is good and what isn't when buying cheap. This didn't change over the last 50 years
I’m pretty sure their gaming laptops were pretty decent
So just for a point of comparison, the X rocker 2.0 gaming chair has been available for many many years. I can remember something similar to that or maybe even that exact same chair being available over 10 years ago.😊
Yeah, someone in the comments said he got it way back in 2007 only for the speakers to break and to realize that it was uncomfy as hell, lol.
I had one probably 15 years ago and it was ass. My gaming setup was on a short TV stand so the only pro was that i wasnt sitting on the fucking ground lol
I used to use it and my brother still uses his but the onn mouse isn’t half bad. Only reason I went back to my cheap $20 wired mouse was because the sensor on the onn had dust or hair I couldn’t get out at the time, but a while afterwards when I noticed the tracking issues on my wired I also tested the onn mouse to see if it suffered the same issue as my wired suffers. Both have issues on low sense when you gotta do faster flicks. The Sensor basically doesn’t do any bit of what you want, sometimes you mostly keep aiming the same spot, sometimes it sways way up or way down. Main reason I got a G502 lightspeed was to be able to swing faster and have an accurate input.
For details, the onn and my cheap wired mouse could do Valorant Comfortably at 600edpi (2400 dpi and .25 in game sense specifically) but once I halfed to
Gotta Love James at 16:20, just making a meme face in the background.
Walmart sells MSI and LG gaming monitors in the stores as well as cyberpower gaming computers so you really can get a perfectly adequate setup in store at Walmart
Ya I bought my monitor from Walmart it was a Lg ultra gear 144hz for like 150 while there they had a onn 165hz was like 20 bucks extra
Even Asus monitors.
the point is the Walmart branding
@@jaggedjagger Yeah, but they also included the X Rocker chair which isn't a Walmart brand, so...
@@jaggedjagger walmart own gateway, they could have gotten a gateway laptop
As a teen I LOVED my XRockers I had!! I had the felt/plush (not exactly sure how to describe it) one so it didn't smell nearly as bad but it made gaming (at least as a kid) super fun
Very happy the speakers are decent because I just bought them not too long ago for my set
Cheap, but not cheap enough for my HS/college days. I would find really old, used stuff for really cheap, often free. and fix it up or mod it to suit my needs. My favorite one I actually still use for my setup when I'm watching a movie or playing a game with speakers instead of headphones. It was a boom box/stereo receiver from the 70's with something fried in the tape deck circuitry that was preventing you from switching to radio or aux. I got it for "free, as is", nipped the wires to the tape deck motors and reader head and got the thing to work again. I now have it driving a 10" stereo sub with high-end pass-through that my dad thew out and the original boombox speakers with 4" mids and 1" tweeters. I even get full band Shortwave so I get to listen to all of the amateur and pirate stations broadcasting out of the western Slavic countries and Scandinavia when the ionosphere expands at night.
Pretty darned sweet!
Onn brand is a life savior for budget setups. Walmart did a great job on this brand.
The cheap android tablets are not terrible either.
Walmart brands are okay I guess it's not the best it's not the worst just okay
The podcast microphone was my first microphone I got during covid and honestly it really was perfect
yeah, i have that same webcam, i dont stream i just use it for chatting with friends online and for that its perfectly usable.
also the ring light kinda works a bit, not much, but a it if the only other light source is your monitor
I own a computer repair shop and I bought those speakers just to be able to test audio out on PCs. I was actually surprised by how good they sounded, (for $19.)
After seeing Walmart overprice all tech for years these price points genuinely surprised me. Id actually buy that mouse and monitor and will if mine ever break
Yeah and a bag of potatoes 😡
@@drueckglueck9918 mashed potatoes and a budget PC? hell yea! lol
And the poo chair aka farting chair?
@@jaimecervantes1306 We will send them all to Amber Turd! lol
monitors arent just about fair price, its about image quality and response which is no doubt lacking in these budget ranges.
Had an X rocker back in 07. Was really fun with guitar hero 3.
I've got the Onn 24-inch gaming monitor and after a few months I've gotta say it hasn't let me down yet! Assembly and setup were a breeze, and it does all I need for my home office setup. Now, I'm not much of a gamer (mostly Portal and Minecraft with a smattering of Xbox streamed to my laptop over my home network) but I've yet to have a problem. Would recommend for a budget home office setup with the occasional casual game
I have the Asus rog 27-inch gaming monitor for a couple of weeks and it has worked like a dream
I had, and actually still have, an X-Rocker chair from about 15 years ago. It was quite a bit bigger and more expensive than the one shown here. Have not used the speakers in ages, and the padding is long dead. Though I do remember the speakers on it to be a decent bit better than any of our TVs. Loved the thing as a kid.
Yeah I had one as a kid also around 15 years ago that had arm rests and better padding. They were the shit back then lol. Was great for console gaming and definitely better than TV speakers at the time.
I have one of their full sized chairs and its meh, been using it for the last 5 years or so and just starting to consider a new one, although I don't think these chairs do anything for your back and the screws constantly untighten leaving you in an awkward position, its good and bad LOL
same, i used to love cranking the bass and playing cod 2 with mine. and blacksite area 51.
So it's basically name and sentiment as for the reason why they can charge such ludicrous prices?
The Xrocker was amazing for my Xbox back in the day.
From someone who has used the ONN keyboard for about a year now, I have absolutely no issues with it and see no reason to upgrade to anything from any other manufacturer (no matter how much I love my Corsair, lmao). The blue switches while cheap sound and feel great to me, the floating key design looks good and is great for easy cleaning, and the included wrist wrest makes it so my hands dont feel like garbage after 20 minutes. Absolute stellar keyboard for a great price.
Nothing wrong with a cheap, solid keyboard. I've been using a Logitech K120, a $20 keyboard, for at least 4-5 years now. Never had a reason to upgrade
Im actually very impressed with the onn products.
18:10 there are coming for me even when it’s not a ad😭
There*, an* .*
16:10 that podcast mic is literally impressive. WOW.
Yep I use it for zoom calls on my iMac and it's great
9:35 brandon just shouting from the distance hahaha
i have the exact same monitor and it works amazing. i would recommend buying it if your on a budget
