Tommy Hilfiger are Filthy Scammers

Tommy Hilfiger was everywhere in the 90s on Snoop Dogg, Britney Spears and many more, not that I cared, this may surprise you, but I've never been into fashion now, although they are getting into Myspace games, and You know I love to watch. some, well this is different, we've seen some nonsense from major brands before. I mean, it's usually fine, just a little overpriced, but this steaming pile of sweatshop garbage is not only bad, our labs team tested it and the marketing for it is full. with actual lies and deceptions so egregious that they may actually be illegal, this is the first time I've touched it, although I don't even know how much this pile of garbage cost me.

You want to guess 100 dollars 150. 150 Are they real dollars, yeah, we? as well as we charge our sponsor thanks to Freshbooks for sponsoring today's video Freshbooks is a simple and intuitive accounting software because time is money save up to 11 hours a week and take control of your business with Freshbooks keep listening to find out how you can save 90 in your first four months. This is not the first time that Tommy Hilfiger is dedicated to selling technology. They currently sell Bluetooth speakers and headphones, as well as a battery bank, but this is their first foray into the gaming space.

What's different this time? it's the level of effort, we don't have Tommy's previous headphones here to comment on the sound quality of it, but it's easy to see from the photos that they achieve at least the bare minimum, they look like they were made by a Tommy Hilfiger, the gaming set. um, oh man, use what is this, the iso layout. The Enter key, which is the worst, is conveniently located for your sixth finger, which happens to be a little longer than your pinky, they can't even make it look anything more than cheap. and horrible, the really wild part is that you've seen what these guys do in their fashion photography and yet no amount of Photoshop could make this look like anything other than garbage, oh my god, what are these specs? 95 acrylonitrile butadine styrene how is that? of its key talking points is also just ABS plastic, it's used in literally everything.

I didn't even think about what ABS meant, why would you write that the mouse is 90 abs and 10 metal? You better not find anything but ABS or metal on that mouse, what metal earbuds, 10 sponges, it's at the top of the product page, okay, sorry, keyboard features are easy to clean, waterproof and dustproof, you don't say it says waterproof, yes, spot cleaning will do, Thomas, oh. Oh my gosh, Alex, look, these aren't just your old keyboard and mouse headsets, they're imported. Yes, they have a lot more specs on the box than on the website. The gaming headset supposedly offers immersive surround sound.

They are compatible with PS Vita. Why would you mention the PS Vita and the Nintendo 3DS? Wait, this is new, it came out in December, and yet every mention of a supported console is at least five years old. Okay, sorry, I'm going to start looking at this stuff. now i found that the metal on the mouse is metal. Is this? A removable weight system needs real screws. You're getting ahead of yourself. There is a removable weight, but it's not like that's not the removable weight. You're not supposed to take it apart so soon. wait, I can't take it apart, but just experience it, okay, I'll take it apart later, it's very heavy for a modern gaming mouse, it has very soft forward and back buttons, the back button has a significantly longer travel, hmm, wait . this on our end I doubt it oh yeah no it doesn't look like there are any screws underneath so I don't think it's actually on our end and just the thinnest and largest connector cable I mean who needs to connect something to the next USB port?

True, that's why you have dedicated USB ports on the front of your computer for your mouse. I mean, it works. Hey, the backlighting for recurring colors looks great. Does it just alternate between four colors? Is there a way to change it? No, this is actually like a decent RGB Controller here, well that's a good thing. Can you change the RGB stuff? Oh, oh no, I didn't see a software download. Is there a way to actually control the RGB? That's a Linus feature, no driver needed, no driver needed on Everything nothing, has some indication of what DPI you're running at, maybe these DPI changes think so, why do you press it multiple times?

Because I want to be able to know, but the range is only 1200 to 3200. That's not as wide as you would expect on a modern gaming mouse. I'm pretty sure the DPI adjustment buttons are here and here, but I'm guessing there's no way to reprogram either of these; You better be happy with the DPI back and forth. Up and down and left and right click, the RGB effect looks really cool, although give credit where credit is due. I mean, that's all the players care about. I guess to go to the website I'm going to need this keyboard.

I don't think this weighs much more than the mouse. Oh wow, I can't remember the last time I saw a keyboard that felt so generic and cheap. Honestly though you've been able to get much better keyboards for $30 and $20 more. Amazon for years this is a placeholder for where the number caps and scroll lock lights are supposed to go, they didn't even finish putting the legend on it, this is the biggest OEM we changed, almost nothing I think I've done ever. I have seen that Tommy clearly had nothing to do with this at all and that is not a compliment, it is an indicator that he is simply completely ruled out of any product that bears his name, good quality screen printing here, but unfortunately my key x is a reflection of my current mood after spending 150 dollars for this permanently depressed Can I get a hoop shot editor please?

Hello, that bad boy is going to show up again, hey, here we go, we got it good. He has a dedicated lighting key, although I have high hopes for the RGB. the level of effort is so low that not only could they not make their own mold for the USB port housing, but they couldn't even use the same one on both products, so a cheap Chinese peripheral OEM could not be found to manufacture both. you had to find two different ones and then package them together clearly, quality wasn't the main concern Alex, so why not? If you want to know they are both from instant microelectronics, they are both from instant microelectronics, yes, from the same factory, so they could I haven't even ordered enough for them to change the case to be the same, try so hard, do you know what hard that we work to differentiate the LTT store products and make them truly amazing if all I have to do is just put my name in the trash and I can become a billionaire and I wonder why I don't do it, how much is it worth anyway ? oh no, oh, it's the RGB type of lighting with static LEDs, red, green and blue, that don't really change.

I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent mix of colors. on the multiple LEDs inside the mouse, this not so much, it appears to be a light diffuser pattern on the mold so these lights aren't too bright, they just didn't put the legend on top of it. bigger games, oh I hate this keyboard now I want to make this very clear. I'm not shaming anyone who can't afford a better keyboard, but if you had the money and bought this anyway, you're an NPC, yeah, I mean, sorry, sorry. are facts, a rainbow backlit keyboard, I mean, technically, yes, a mouse with seven button layout, I mean, yes, and a comfortable headset with omnidirectional speaker sound, what does that mean?

It seems whoever marketed this page heard a word once. an audio context and like oh, that sounds cool. I promise you that these are regular old drivers like any other drivers and they shoot at One Direction because they have that thing that they definitely don't know: they are beautiful, without recognition. nothing, sorry, I was looking for what omnidirectional means, which means the speaker is not outputting, which given the treble performance might actually be correct when I listen to an omnidirectional speaker, what I expect is a set of speakers that have a balanced output in all directions.

What I imagine the omnidirectional speaker means, does this say at all what the size of the driver is? Oh, maybe, but it does say the earbuds are 7.3 inches long when you have to start resorting to the length, width, and height of your earbuds for completeness. a spec sheet containing your headset, your mouse, and your keyboard, you know you're scraping the absolute bottom of the barrel, but you can look cool doing it, oh my gosh, you're right Brandon, how cool am I right now, I only use the better. brands oh these may be the cheapest controllers I've ever put in my head listen to this Brandon wait I have to put this on the mic so I can show you what I'm hearing right now that's the difference in the air. pressure by pushing the drivers over your head, you know, squish the pads a little bit, which causes the driver inside the membrane to just collapse and then pop out again, let's bring our three, our Three Amigos here, which one is curly which one is Larry and which one is Mo, let us know in the comments.

I've been doing some calculations on the whole omni thing because it bothered me oh, around 11,000 Hertz, if the driver's side is correct, it will start emitting and it won't be omnidirectional, oh basically. they're just supporting performance so I'm playing guys wait I need to plug in the USB port three and a half millimeter platforms is that USB port just the lights it's just for the lights it shouldn't be bad. for the people who bought it, no, it was probably your grandma at hudson's bakery or something, yeah, yeah, that's true, okay, I don't want you to feel bad if you have these, so take all the shit that I'm about to do. to do it as educational I'm not bullying it's education trying to teach you something look at this this has the little holes in it like the microphone is here is the microphone here or is the microphone here and they couldn't have the same color braided cables again they are all different What a cynical cash grab this whole thing is.

I can't even write on this, oh my god, I can't write on this, I thought it was me, but then he did it again, he inserted an o yes, he has it, he has the O there again no, no, take my hands , take my hands this time we have screen cover we have screen cover okay here we go okay I didn't do it oh my God I can't Now I'm overthinking it, no, it's not about inserting Ghost characters, it's just too hard to write that sound , although OMG look at this, who knows what's going on, why when people google these are already super hot? my ears because they are only using the cheapest synthetic pu leather possible and they are already uncomfortable, although admittedly they at least put foam padding on top, something many headphone manufacturers, even high-end ones, don't do .

Whatever the reason you have to give Crab Rave credit, here you have to be a truly great and catchy song for it to sound good on these, the mids are basically non-existent. Mixed with the base that somehow manages to dominate everything and yet be inadequate and as for the highs I think they are in there somewhere I don't know about you, but I'm having a blast they sound like they're so bad, they I swear everything sounds the same shooting Fireball shooting Fireball hitting it just everything sounds the same The mouse is definitely the least bad part, but that's not a big deal.

You know, I'm on the record saying that if I have the choice, I'll choose a good mouse and a bad keyboard and vice versa, but this. Experience taught me that there really is still a minimum bar that you have to reach and this doesn't reach it. I've also recently stated that there is no such thing as a bad product, just a bad price, but I think Tommy has proven that. I'm wrong, you can have both a bad price and a bad product, the mouse only works well in a vacuum and like any product, the Tommy Hilfiger gaming set does not exist in a vacuum, this is what we were able to put together for the same total price.

A keyboard/mouse headset combo from brands you've heard of. Yes, we did get some of these items on sale, but not the Mega Black Friday sale or anything like that. You could easily reproduce our results here, let's compare, do we know what to expect? Secondly, I first saw Alex come in with something intriguing. This is a keyboard that was included with some Lenovo pre-builts. I imagine the BOM cost for this will be less than ten dollars; You can usually add them for about five dollars in the settings. I would like to know how it compares. Oh, do I have to put them back on?

Well, I'd take it any day of the week. This is what it would take to convince me that this is a gaming keyboard. Good low profile. Nice keys, short and consistent travel. I feel from one to another, this is spectacularly horrible,Now let's compare it to something of equivalent price. First up, we have the Logitech g305 with its Hero sensor and Lightspeed wireless dongle, that's right my friends, with lower latency than wired and the convenience of just plugging it in. a new double battery A every time the amazing battery life runs out, it has one less button, but it uses that button much better, you can reprogram it and it just cycles through the dpi instead of going up or down, so it works exactly now I can say the same feature won't even come close Low profile chassis Four reprogrammable switches powered by built-in cams Standard bottom row design with MX-compatible hot-swappable plugs Gatteron red linear key switches and yes, there's a little bit of flex, okay , this is Not a top of the line keyboard but my goodness the ever better detachable cable includes a key switch puller and look oh is it magnetic if it is?magnetic I'm going to be really impressed very nice Magnetic wrist rest Where is my wrist rest?

Tommy, lots of different creature comforts here, we have two different heights for the back legs, nice sound, little volume wheel, detachable USBC cable, real RGB, what's up with RGB you don't have to use RGB, it's okay, you can set it to White and forget about it, not on the Tommy Hilfiger, it's RGB or it's nothing, you just fumble around in the dark and find your keys, oh sorry, mom didn't mean. to send it to you and finally we have the Steel Arctis Nova series. I haven't touched a Steel series headphone in forever. You can go from USBC to C, USBC to 3.5K, or USB C to extension to a pop-up output. boom microphone I love seeing it not always hanging in your face it has a mute button on the earpiece volume control and a lighting button the lighting can be turned off without padding on the top we will see how this elastic does I mean the bar that they had that the range was so low, although that is a nice foam, there is a series of steel, oh, those headphones are good here.

I have to give you the comparison photo of Brandon playing well, so we have this thing that's probably important to mention here too, it was like your ears are not parallel and on that one you can move the cups like this oh yeah, this has no adjustment whatsoever whereas oh yeah that's not good oh look we actually have a high end frequency response like I can hear where the steps are coming from what concept. I've never appreciated a proper gaming keyboard so much. To be clear, this isn't the best gaming keyboard in the world or anything, but wow, is it getting better?

Oh, we're in a part of a puzzle, that's fine. You've probably done enough and better noise isolation too. In short, our comparison set isn't even a close team that won't make you a better player, but at least it shouldn't actively inhibit you from being a better player. Can I take them apart now? Not yet, we have a couple of tests to do. The first says that the rope measures 1.5 meters in the mouse case. I mean, the length didn't bother me, but did they really try to cheapen that bit of copper? that's not five feet I don't need a tape measure to tell you that uh uh maybe if we go from the end of the plug just to be as charitable as possible here that's 140 centimeters that's 10 centimeters In short, that's what I always I say to my mom, hey, do you want to take a look at this little data sheet here?

Oh wow, you found a data sheet for the mouse because on the manufacturer's website they only have this OEM mouse, no, we took it apart. and I found the sensor and I got it from there, oh, great, but just keep in mind that this is what it says, the DPI is here, 1200 to 3200, yeah, oh, 800, 1200, 1600 and 2000. Well, that explains the very narrow range I detected. Is this changing or not changing? They are completely different numbers. Do you know what the best part is? What we measure. Those numbers are wrong too. They are 600, 900, 1200 and 1500. Did you read this?

No, they describe a breathing light mode as four. circulatory color discolored respiratory function that sounds like a disease not a characteristic what is that? it's a slide test oh okay time for the slide test where did you download this from backlight is it supposed to wait? the backlight breathing the back is plugged in it's supposed to indicate what It says the CPI doesn't, I guess it was overridden so we'll do a slide test, you even get the added benefit, oh, see you later, uh, well , wait, wait, no, no, let's give him every advantage possible, okay? We'll hold this like this, yeah, I mean, we want to be, we want to be charitable, yeah, Oak, stay, stay whole, oh oh, yeah, that's really heavy and this is the one that I even said wasn't that bad, okay, look this clock.

This shit, it completely loses tracking if you try to make a quick move, laughs, that means you're going faster than this sensor can detect. We will show you what happens in this wow we spin, you can really control. It's just working. Do you want to know the best thing about this mouse? The RGB now. So yeah, the input latency of a click on this mouse is on average five milliseconds at most 6.1 what do you think that's for? Oh I do not know. I don't know, obviously it's going to be worse. I'll say 10 milliseconds, wait, let me give myself a second. 20, is it 30 on average? 45 maximum, really, yes, I would be able to detect it on a screen. you give me something with like 30 milliseconds of extra latency but I can't see it here, that's really bad, that's two full frames of extra latency from your input.

I want to separate from this. I want to separate things. I want to know what it is. Sticking with this weight plate at the bottom, you could unplug it first, no, okay, what's the worst that can happen? The plate looks completely cosmetic and a little rusty, oh no, oh remember I was saying it was heavy, they did that on purpose. They actually use the 90's power supply trick here. They just put a big chunk of metal on the back of the mouse. What the hell are they doing? It's much lighter. How much does this thing weigh?

Do we measure it? 18 grams 18 grams Are you crazy and look at this PCB? Is this a modern gaming mouse or is it a damn science fair project from 1985? Oh my goodness, is this holy fish built by hand? I think they are not surface mount devices, these resistors are mounted in a through hole, this is literally like you can build it right, there is another lie that says instant directly on the driver chip, no, no, no, it's because That's why the side buttons feel so soft, there is no PCB mounted at 90 degrees, they are not. pressing directly on anything, they just slide into place on top of these switches that are actually pressed like this, press the button like this, okay, yeah, and it does like this and then it just slides on it, wow, okay, Do you want the last part of the test?

We did it for that mouse, sure there are two things you want to test to determine the precision and accuracy of the mouse: the precision is like 800 DPI, you want to get like 800 points in the end, g305 is fine for that, it has like 2.4 of discount, which is of course not. ideal, but the accuracy is really good, you can do the same thing and it's within a tenth of a percent every time, what you mean is it's 2.4 percent off every time. Yeah, okay, this is, oh God, the accuracy is terrible, 2.7 or even. 3.3 off, but the variation at best is two percent and at worst is four, so doing the same move multiple times will be different each time you do it, but at least it's instantaneous, it's great to have a laboratory team that likes tests. all this for us because if all you're going to do is come do maternal and click some heads like you can do it, but if you really want to be good and train with aim or something, this is going to prevent you from being able to do that , see you later, Tommy, it's nice to meet you, so you'll see it says Advanced Anti-ghosting right there with an infinity symbol next to it.

What happens if I press three keys at once? So 27 30 32 works. yeah, you have a lot more fingers or a lot less fingers than that, let's go again, oh my god, three, that's it, unless you're in a different part of The Matrix, oh no, it's okay, the space bar is separated , so it can handle three per zone, it seems. how and where are my zones oh, there is no space bar in the same zone as tkl uh oh yeah, okay, if I release D, can I press the space bar? Are you pressing something up to a total of six at most at a time, so even if you wanted to?

Playing Liaro is fine with my son, which is a two player game where each player uses one side of the keyboard. This wouldn't work. It's a game from 1997. And the keyboards from back then could handle it perfectly. The latency is also terrible. 30 millisecond show. Yo, your secrets, cover plate, diffusion plate, oh wow, so it's a diffusion plate, but it's also like the switch backing plate and obviously this is as advertised, it's a membrane style keyboard, It's fine, and once again, the PCB looks like it came out of something from the 80s. I love that they put it up as an anti-reverse engineering nonsense.

I am a controller chip. Nobody wants to reverse engineer this keyboard. Guys, you're taking yourself too seriously. There are your RGB zones. The edge is illuminated. Two blue LEDs, three red and two green, it's really. It's cool to see the way light interacts to form the different colors on this diffusion sheet. Was there anything else you would like to say about the keyboard? No, before I go to the keyboard. I have been in heaven. Goodbye, keyboard. Finally, headphones. So this is the Arctix Nova. 3 so you can see a bit more mid-bass which gives you really nice shots and stuff, kind of a weird drop off at 5K so maybe it's not that, oh compared to the Tommy at least my trained ear nailed it the headphones. basically poop across the board yeah so the base isn't as bad after a case as when you're in the middle where people might be talking or where there's feet or gunshots or something like that just yeah I'm not.

I'll even bother trying to find where the screws are. Yes, Sam, our audio engineer, asked us to take a look at the drivers and see if production forgot to remove the protective plastic because it's so bad that he thinks it might be newly manufactured. bad, well we'll find out there's the RGB lighting, uh, the cool kids are dead now, um, okay, sure the material is that cheap, Tommy, you made a mistake, surely they can't be that bad, I don't think so Yes, nothing can be like that. bad except this Segway for our sponsor Vessey Have you ever had a hard time deciding what to wear in unpredictable weather?
