 Okay, so today I'm unboxing a couple of Zowie gear products. As you can see I'm in the cameraman's office, so I am finally back at work after my boat with the swine flu. Honestly, I know nothing about Zowie as a company except that they make gaming peripherals. We don't actually carry them yet. However, I'm going to have a look at these evaluation products and check out what I think of them. So this headset is called the Hammer. It should fall around like a $69.99, $79.99 sort of price range. It has some guy on it who says it's really good. And then it has another guy who also says it's really good. Okay, so it's designed for eSports. So that means it's designed for sports that you do not leave your armchair in order to do. The very best kinds of sports, obviously. Okay, so we'll start with the headset and they also have a mouse pad which is the G-TF or Two-Face. Okay, so headset here. The build quality actually... There's nothing particularly exceptional about it, but it feels like it's gonna be pretty comfortable when I go ahead and put this on my head. So I'm just gonna figure out which way... Okay, so the arm here is a little bit stiff for the huge, huge microphone, which looks like it should be pretty good. It's like an enormous microphone in there. I don't know why you would need that, but either way, that's pretty cool. So this is the left ear. So I should probably be putting the... This turns all the way around. Okay, so I should probably put that over there. So I'm gonna check out the comfort level here. How do I look? Cameraman is making kind of like a weird face at me. This isn't actually flexible, which is something I don't really like. So you can't adjust how far the mic sits away from your head. However, they're incredibly light, which I guess is one huge advantage of such a slim design. And another thing that I've noticed about them as I had them on is that they are using a closed design. So that means that sound is gonna be a little bit more tinny. You're gonna get a little bit less bass, but the advantage is going to be that directionality is much better. Other people can't hear what you're listening to and you can't hear any outside noises. Like I can hardly hear myself talk when I have these on, much like the Sennheiser PC 350s. Okay, so it also comes with... What do we got here? Oh, okay. We've got an on... On the cable. We have a switch for the mic as well as a volume control. This feels pretty cheap and cheesy, but I don't think the clip's going anywhere anytime soon. So it should be durable enough from that perspective. Then we have, let's see... Pretty short cable, but it looks like this little accessory package here comes with an extension cable so that you can either plug in to the back of a keyboard on your desk, or you can reach around all the way... Reach around. Or you can reach around all the way to the back of the case. Okay, it also comes with a couple of foam ear pads. So you can actually replace the pleathery ones that come with it, and it looks like, oh, this is actually really easy to do, with foam ones, should you prefer that feel on your ears of velour or whatever you want to call this material. Okay, let's move on to the mouse pad. I'm just gonna cough once here. Sorry about that. Okay, I'm not still, not feeling 100% quite yet. Okay, so this is the G-TF, or the Two-Face. It is a spawn. Okay, whatever that means. It has this badass looking guy on it. All right, and it says, okay, what is unique about this mouse pad? It is that, it is a hundred percent cloth, but it is as fast as plastic because it actually uses a plastic coating over top. So that's kind of like the SteelSeries 5L, which is a cloth pad with a plastic layer on top, except that this is not a hard pad. This is actually still a rollable, sort of actual cloth pad, whereas the 5L sits on like a plastic back substrate sort of thing. So this is a quite a large mouse pad, as you can see here with it in front of me. So I've got the cameraman's like ghetto mouse here, which totally sucks. But in terms of, in terms of glide actually, I can't really see it being any faster than the QCK that I'm using at home. But I do like the rough textured feel quite a lot. If you can, I don't know how the cameraman's gonna sort of capture that, but have a look. And I also really like how thick it is. This is quite a thick mouse pad, and it has nice, nice woven edges, which is something that I've noticed about my QCK is the edges are getting quite frayed, and I can see that this would cause that to not happen. The back is a rubberized, very grippy. I'm just, obviously you'd never use a mouse on the back of a mouse pad. Never do that, it's stupid. But I'm putting a mouse on the back of it so that I can demonstrate it's quite grippy when you put it down on the desk, and it's not gonna move, even if you lift your mouse and kind of do that sort of thing. Anyway, thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Zowie Gear Hammer and Two-Face Mouse Pad.
