Verizon MiFi 4G LTE Unboxing

2012-01-06
what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at the Verizon mobile hotspot this is the 45 10 L there they do have two models there's one that Samsung makes as well this one I believe is made by novotel but it's called the MiFi and it has a 1500 milliamp hour battery which is going to give you connectivity on-the-go now the reason I picked this up is because I'm going to be traveling to Las Vegas for CES and my understanding is that the Wi-Fi at all of the hotels as well as at the Convention Center is terrible during this convention there are a hundred and forty thousand tech enthusiasts show up for this thing so as you'd imagine most of the networks are pretty bogged down so this is going to be imperative so that I can keep on pumping out content to you guys but expensive you pay about $80 a month for 10 gigabytes granted it's very fast for a mobile device that's still pretty pricey I didn't have a choice I didn't want to take a risk I wanted to make sure I was gonna have connectivity while I was there so talking about the unboxing we had the actual device first followed by some startup information master your device here is that big 1,500 milliamp hour battery that's what's gonna allow for you obviously to have connectivity on the go without needing to plug this thing in I believe it lasts for about four and a half hours somewhere around there correct me if I'm wrong but around four and a half hours I believe of actual usage off of the wall so here is the wall charger this is how you get the whole thing up and running of course and it's the international style where you insert the subsequent prongs in our case being here in North America we've got the standard 2 prong and it's microUSB on the other side surprisingly they've also included a cleaning cloth which you wouldn't expect with a device like this that you stick in your pocket or your bag but hey why not and then you've got another microUSB cable with a little sticker on the front that says it should be used for firmware upgrades etc so I suppose that's all it's for now you've also got this little startup guide from Verizon with your SIM card etc to get everything up and running I can't actually go ahead and activate this right now because I am in Canada in the Toronto area as I've mentioned before and Verizon doesn't do business up here so it's a matter of me getting down to Vegas activating it there and getting everything up in but I've already talked to Verizon on the phone they've been really cool about this whole endeavor as they should be considering how much I'm paying but yeah they didn't mind setting me up even though I'm not a US citizen and whatnot so on the bottom side we have our micro USB port for charging in some other port that looks like an antenna or something along those lines here's that giant battery where you insert in the back you also insert your SIM card in the same location and you have one button on the front very simple to operate a power button and LED along the bottom and then a little what looks like a is that an LCD display I'm not sure what kind of display that is a low Phi low tech display that gives you your battery readout as well as your connectivity icon I've got a red flashing light right now probably because the device is not activated I'll have to wait until I get down to Vegas to let you know how this thing works out or you'll know how it's working out because you'll see content that's getting uploaded if this thing is working properly so anyway guys if you enjoyed this content hopefully you can like and favorite this video as it does help you out a bunch if you haven't subscribed yet I got tons of content plan from Vegas from CES all the new product launches I'm going to take you behind the scenes vlog about it give you guys the inside scoop so to speak as always guys I want to thank you for joining the unbox therapy community if it weren't for you guys this content would be impossible I know I've said it before but I do want to thank you for your continued viewership until next time I'll see you around a channel alright later guys
