Leetgion Hellion Gaming Mouse Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

2013-02-27
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Elite Jian heli on which I have been informed is not you know okay okay here so on their site they actually explained that leat gen they explained what leet means which hopefully all of you know and if you don't then I don't know you can stop watching now I suppose no no no I don't reject any viewers I want anyone who wants to learn about the heli on Mouse to be watching this video so leet make means you know you're like elite and then eg on like Legion like a army or something so they're like yeah that's where the name came from it's like leet and Legion together and I was like oh well this mouse is called the heli on so it's probably like hell and like lions like ah together and that's probably what it is and then I was informed that it's an RTS Mouse so what they're probably talking about is the heli on unit in Starcraft so there you go I got told and there's a cool little logo on the side where you can see the mouse inside Legion is sort of a new player in this whole peripheral game but they seem to be doing some interesting stuff so we checked out the ldren before which was which is actually diesels using it about half and half now with his old mouse so he's seeing if he can make the switch it's hard to change mice because there's so many different things that affect whether you like a new Mouse or not but the fact that he's legitimately considering changing it out is is pretty strong that's a pretty strong statement so I was I was pretty impressed they're serious about building high-end products which is cool unlike sort of some of the other guys so they're using an Avago 9500 laser mouse sensor made in Japan Omron micro switches they actually have a cherry MX blue switch for the attack button it does have a dedicated attack button which is in line with the RTS sort of roots of this particular great packaging look at this packaging sorry I'm not actually done with this yet for custom profile sets six fully programmable hotkeys customizable sixteen point eight million color LED and I think pretty much it eighty Meg's of hard disk space system requirement a driver does this thing have okay looks cool I'll give it that so mouth lot okay so labels dpi adjustments so 100 dpi is blue 800 dpi is green 16 Wow seven different settings for dpi is at least and you can change the colors depending which one you're using race switching can be done with different profiles so the default is red - Tarryn is blue Zerg is purple Protoss as yellow custom is green so that's that's kind of cool as well so yeah it's definitely definitely optimized for Diablo and other RTS games like that wouldn't it be funny if I made mistakes like that I was just kidding by the way but wouldn't that be hilarious if I actually didn't know gaming to the point where I didn't know what an RTS was and I was trying to do unboxings for products that are optimized for them I mean I didn't know that the hell he owns a unit and Starcraft I don't think it was unit in Starcraft 1 so BAM okay comes with this is something that I do like to see it actually comes with replacements for the slippy pads on the bottom of the mouth so oh 3 M Wow see it's all about the baller stuff with these guys on runs which is 3m mousepad feet and all that kind of stuff here we go it's an ambidextrous Mouse and here is the braided cord so it's a gold-plated cord although it should be noted that the gold plating here doesn't do anything the important thing is the gold plating on the inside you got that diesel I don't know if he's got that he says no it's ok braided cord so it's not gonna sort of catch on anything and it's not going to have problems I've actually had one of my braided cords fall apart not that long ago but this one seems like it wouldn't pop out of the side I had one night where the cord just popped right out of the braiding so that was sort of disappointing it wasn't elite gymnast by the way so on the bottom here we're selecting different profiles for the mouse with a dial that's from an interesting interface so there's that default Terran Zerg Protoss custom and yeah it works pretty much like that is there another way to do this no okay you flip the mouse over you turn the dial and then you're in the actual profile that you want to be in so you don't it's not tied to a software switch just sort of unique ha there it is cherry MX blue attack button so that's a dedicated a although I've noticed the fact that you can probably reprogram that to something else if you want it has a pretty unique sound because it isn't MX blue see that so it actually yeah as like some pretty serious click eNOS to it you've also got a couple more programmable keys so there's one here one here there's your middle click left click right click and I'm trying to figure out if these are related to something in any way but it would actually appear not let's go ahead and plug it in and have a look at what the lighting zones look like doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo-doo watching the video listening to Linus sing doo-doo-doo okay well that explains what all this is so there's just lighting that shows through here at the bum of the mouse here on the logo here on the top and here and here on the side so you can change those colors to pretty much whatever you see fit so I want to close by showing you guys how we actually change the dial on the bottom and how it affects the color so you can actually see slightly through the hole there what goes on but here we go doop doop doop blue purple yellow other more different blue oh we should have had like green instead of another more different but well that pretty much wraps it up thank you for checking out my unboxing of the légion Helion RTS optimized no see how I almost set RPG can don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips from unboxings reviews and other computer videos
