TekNmotion Intruder Gaming Headset & Headphones Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

2011-12-15
I'm actually quickly becoming a fan of tech emotion because you know some of their products have been in low end at low price point so you know more value oriented products but one of the ones that I had an opportunity to have a look at and that I actually use regularly now is the pulse wave what I like so much about that product sorry I'm not going to even talk about this at all for now i'll talk about the pulse wave for a bit one of the things i like about it is the fact that it allows you with the flip of a switch to either use the onboard USB sound card or use the analog sound input so what that means is when like the speakers i have on my desk at work or not they don't have a proper headphone out port on the front so what that means is that unless i was using a USB headset then i couldn't actually have two different audio devices at the same time so that was kind of a pain if I was stupid cuz my front audio doesn't work on my case so what I did was I was able to use the USB in that scenario and then when I want better quality audio out of it and I have a proper sound card then I can just not use the USB and I can switch to analog I thought that was cool I don't use the vibration functionality of it at all that particular aspect of that headset i think is a bit of a gimmick but what i do use is the just generally comfortable and very good sounding headset considering the price point and considering the sort of you know less professional audio oriented kind of positioning that they had for their like yeah like something that vibrates a little blah so you would expect it to not sound very good but then it did so that's that's what i liked about it so moving on to the intruder which is the headset that we have here today what do we got here in terms of accessories and whatnots you mean give me just a moment here and i will tell you guys exactly what we're dealing with so the first thing we find is haha here we are ah which direction does this go this is going to go this way so we have a detachable mic which i'm personally a big fan of I'm I don't always you know need to when I'm wearing my head so headphones I don't always need to look like you know a gamer necessarily depending where I am so attachable mike is capable of moving sort of in this range okay so consider way by your mouth or can sit a little bit away from it okay what else we got here we have sort of a bit of a harder foam but a very desirable shape so they've gone with an ear shape which is sort of seems like rocket science when you look at most most headsets where they have round shapes or oval shapes well this looks like in here which is good because it's designed to fit over an ear it's like I said it's not really the softest foam I've ever felt um but what they've gone for I guess is more lightweight in terms of more padding and cushioning which is what it has on the pulse width which is the one that the one that I regularly use this is kind of neat check this out so it actually uses a headset jack so you could use this with your phone to make phone calls if you if you so desired which is kind of handy in fact it includes two microphones apparently so hold on a second and I will figure out where that other microphone one okay guys I figured it up so it has a fairly wide variety of different attachments and adapters and dongles and doodads and there's different ways to use sort of all of them so it has two microphones it has the gaming mic which is like your typical huge microphone that sits in front of your mouth then it has a mobility Mike so this one is intended for you so if you're like making a phone call or something so you're out and about you're just using these as headphones and you've got your smartphone or whatever else with you you use this jack right here which is smartphone compatible and you got just a little mic down here so sit right in front of your mouth while you're sitting on the bus right ok so there's those two microphone options then on this side of things you can either plug this in for right angle okay or you can plug this into here where you get your inline volume control as well as your microphone mute okay so that's on the controller here and then it goes out to your dedicated headphone and microphone jacks and then for whatever reason they've also included the ability to adapt it back to one of the three bend connectors which you can use to plug into a smart phone or whatever else then you can give it a right angle so they've included all these different adapters giving you a ton of different options in terms of cable length so you can have a nice long cord that can reach to your your other device or you can have a short one in fact speaking to the cord length its oh I don't know about to Linus arms fans long which you look about 11 feet long so now let's have a closer look at the headset itself so i'm going to put the the gaming mic on you just you put it on sideways and then you rotate it obvious locked in place and I ya hear let's have a closer look so these are these are rotatable look at that that's a wider range of rotation than I typically see so that means that no matter how your ears are oriented on your head you're not gonna have too much difficulty fitting it on correctly not as much padding like i said as i have on the pulse wave but like it okay it is a lightweight headset so I guess that's that's to be expected um let's see it's a fairly open design I can hear myself very very clearly while I'm talking here so I wouldn't expect much of the noise of whatever it is that you're listening to to be isolated from the people around you very good overall aesthetic this is the kind of thing that you wouldn't have to be other than the word intruder which maybe you could maybe you could scratch off you wouldn't have to be too embarrassed to wear something like this out in public especially if you don't have the gaming mic on it you just clip this to wherever then run it down to your pocket to your phone so it's a good length for that if you're just gonna like that there you go it's about right so they've got pretty much covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the intruder from tech in motion so it's a lightweight sort of if they call it a gaming headset but you can use it for pretty much anything in fact if I'd even looked at the box i would already know this so pc and mac mobile devices removable mike headband 40 wow really 40 mil speakers huh Wow meep so don't forget to subscribe to my linus
