Phantom Lapboard Wireless Lap Keyboard & Laser Mouse Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[TheNamesChrome]

I'd get annoyed with the plasticky scratching sound. I would definitely like something like my razer goliathus mousepad on the dedicated mousing surface.

[24342333]

Need one of these with a numpad for couch roguelikes.

[mrtypr]

Hi, Im looking for something like this, Can you recommened anything better or that is newer?

[jeff77789]

it actually does have a short shift key.

[awesomecdiperson]

so thats all that ever got released of the famous Phantom video game console. After years of development...........we get a wireless keyboard.... wow.

[Rallisport]

On the website it says it works with Xbox. Is that Xbox or Xbox 360?

[CamCon586]

[Wolf3nStein]

[computerhacker013]

@Scatology1234 not really you can run several devices on the same frequency youll jus encounter a slight anount of interfearance

[tazerfire]

[DeathRowVelo]

[warsmith40k]

@TheJoshuaPitts This is not the qwerty you were looking for.

[FightforFreedom567]

means no putting it on a desk bitches

[autumnwake]

@Scatology1234 I don't know whether you were serious or not but, I use a wireless router and the lapboard all the time. No problem.

[bornwisedistruction]

Well at least the mouse and keyboard survived looks nice

[metalmasterlp]

5:30 linus :O

[T1carus]

needs a numpad

[jjjjoeyas1]

Linus we demand UNBOXING and REVIEWS of new AMD 6850 and 6870 .

We dont want some Wireless Keyboard & Mouse because this is boring.

[MrMattMay]

@jjjjoeyas1 Shut the fuck up. How bout you make some videos of YOU unboxing 6850 and 6870? O wait....you dont have them........so shut the fuck up! k thnx bye! ;)

[autumnwake]

@MrMattMay that was mean, but lmao.

[613ron]

Does anyone else think that Linus speeds up his videos before uploading them?

[InternetSandman]

@613ron he's just a happy and hyper man. he moves fast. deal with it >:D

[beastlordmetal7]

[appleloveTK]

[oli3659]

Does anyone use page up, page down?

[650sFinnest]

@oli3659 wow I just found out my laptop has those keys lol never in my life had I used them.. maybe it was put there when mouses didn't have scroll wheels.

[MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte]

Linus is in a happy mood today...Something to do with Esther Linus? ;)

[gerickjohn2142]

Slow down Linus, you sound so excited and reading too fast.

[FELIX0123]

linus u gotta do a review of ATI new video card!

[CJ2GAME]

This keyboard is not even suitable for gifting..

[skotten90]

lame product

[MrWerkdagen]

dont u want esther in your lap?

[AMVDawg]

this keyboard reminds me a lot on my MSI Wind keyboard... only much larger

[B00h44]

this is pretty useless... after ramming the return butten 3 times i would have broken this thing...

and realy gaming? why would game with a keyboard on your lap? again: useless

[okingu]

i think this keyboard are

ugly, useless, and look like a kids toy

[MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte]

pause at 7:35 and look under the armrest XD

[seanxsr]

Dude where is the blade msr

[Sorrax]

So they are back and this times they want to try the keyboard business?

Anyone remember prototype console, The Phantom?

[weggles]

@Sorrax This was actually intended for the Phantom console. When the console bit the dust people still wanted the lapboard. This keyboard has been a long time coming.

[adampope64]

Damn it Linus, I was hoping for it to withstand my frantic keyboard mashing!!!

[Heerond]

Depressing the keys.. Sounds so sad.

[123mig5]

OK here is how it works; I dont know how it works..... >.<

[Xawiahn]

7:36 somone peed on the floor

[Terinigan]

Nice to see someone thinking about us lefty's...

[Heerond]

@Terinigan You should have thought about the down side of being left handed before you became one!

[Terinigan]

@Heerond ...you sir, are an idiot.

[AbstractReaIity]

Nice product. Only thing I'm worried about is the angle of the board once it's up to accommodate the mouse.

[AndreaFranchitti]

UNCOMFORTABLE

keyboard with joystick are better

[fredde94chr]

Keyboard? Wtf is this... Of nvm it's Linus! iam gonna watch the whole! Thumbs up if you did the same :D

[BramRongen]

Cameraman pointing out he usb dongle many many times Linus xD

[smooVe1234]

that looks so unnatural

[Dashnikian]

looks like a trap for something......

[Dearth123]

@Dashnikian q8 xD

[Kurdestar]

Longer right arm XD HAHAA

[Ards777]

I would prefer keyboard with touchpad.

[anasonic999999]

thats a lame product

[MatthewDavison89]

looks like a pain , keep lifting one arm to type on a angle :/

[SuperLebaneseRambo1]

LOL the only way u can break that key borard is that german kid breakes it lol

[VillyGreatSerbia]

Stupid product

[HLM190586]

Ahh couch surfing, I used to do that before I got my own desktop table lol.

[Bayngan]

The link doesn't work on the website. The search doesn't show either.

[audiz94]

its over 3000!!!!!!

[TheMichaelOwnz]

@audiz94 you mean 9000?

[lambo265]

Wow It makes me wanna get one

[PSPRYANPSP]

@lambo265 That's his job.

[pie977]

Ill be honest, I nearly jizzed when I saw the left hand/right hand configuration and how you can change between em'. You know you're a geek when that happens o.o

[Repter75]

I have a feeling Linus yelled at the camera man after he saw the video :/

[raazstone]

This will be very helpful for the Google TV.

[lestat692k8]

thats actually pretty cool

[floydrose4noobs]

you mean i can take a bat on the couch?!

[Jamula66]

Don't make me say it cause I swear I will

Oh fine

You know what else belongs on linus's lap???

[Razear]

Couch surfing haha

[eL3ctr1c4L]

looks cheep to me, that hinge is gonna break sooner or later

[olmatenightfox]

They should have put a Touchpad in front of the keyboard, that would be cool if you didnt want to use the mouse

[ZHX1138]

Can you do more flip camera reviews?

[Locut0s]

More a bench than a couch ;-)

[TheHalfFinn]

"Dongle" is the single most important word in the English language.

[tylerwylie]

My Das Keyboard is standard!

[First2ner]

ugly color mix

[lumbres031]

Better put Esther on ur lap Linus.. XD

[deathrow989]

that is prettyyyyy cool, I've tried using my PC from the couch a couple of times, and whilst I have a wireless keyboard, trying to use a mouse on a couch is just annoying, that keyboard looks pretty handy

[temple0333]

keyboard looks stupid. it looks flimsy and common how can you type sideways?

[Militarybro007]

I love this keyboard I am a left handed person and I just got a new LCD TV for the living room finally I no longer have to have my wired keyboard attached to the tower and having to get up to type. So happy.

[dirtmerchant18]

haha it's so funny when you demonstrated the keyboard side switch function. you look like a kid at a candy store

[frank141289]

2:43 OMG cameraman trhow a fart

[vwestlife]

The angle looks uncomfortable and flimsy. It'd be better if they just gave it a touch pad, or better yet, a TrackPoint-style eraser head.

[aschris87]

i think linus just spermed all over the dam thing lol...

[rozorahk]

7:09 lINUS LOOKS LIKE HE IS 9

[cal920c]

by the way, the search doesn't lead anywhere yet

[cal920c]

NEATO!

[DarknessKingCoH]

Silly Linus you don't game with a htpc.

[cal920c]

@DarknessKingCoH Linus's HTPC probably sports a GTX 470

[rozorahk]

@cal920c no silly a 480

[bmxhector]

cant watch this vid the same after your iphone deal....u suc

[FancyMushroomHead]

I can't get over the fact that you have to use the keyboard on an angle and it shakes everytime you type something.. I'm sure it's just me but the overall method of usage bothers me greatly although I'm sure it's not uncomfortable

[JTK21351]

I'm calling a gif at 5:54. Can anyone make one haha

[LinusTechTips]

@JTK21351 lol

[alandshawni]

I made a gif specially made for 5:45  tinypicDoTcom/r/35nc0ig/7

[Matrixvibe]

@alandshawni LOL!

[MrAndryi]

@JTK21351 I did one but any link to the image I post here it is not allowed. What can I do?

[TranzeFuze]

@JTK21351 3:06 even better choice. B..B..But get get this! Th..There's more!

[MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte]

@JTK21351 what does gif mean???????

[WildFire187]

@MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte

A gif is an animated image file, it means he wants someone to create an animated .gif image of Linus smashing on the keyboard.

[JTK21351]

@MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte like one of the images you see online where it flicks through a scene frame by frame, and then restarts itself

[PCTechTalks]

@JTK21351 LOL I REPLAYED THAT SO MANY TIMES XD

[T1carus]

@JTK21351 lol, if you keep clicking the time link you dont need to make one

[XxPharaohAtemxX]

i like when the keyboard has a sleep button >_>;

[099psp]

Wow not bad

[TheArea510]

aint no one got a longer right arm. wtf?

[000Nagby000]

@TheArea510 i use my mouse always more far than my keyboard :p

[650sFinnest]

@TheArea510 technically both your arms are not equal do to the fact that they cannot communicate with each other. They are similar but not 100% the same, so I am surprised your comment received so many thumbs up. As for the video I think he meant if your right arm is longer then his right arm.

[pcgamingman]

Thats actually pretty cool. If I had enough money for a HTPC i would get one of these

[eddles777]

lol no numpad?

[EdDyWuu]

People that put a lot of pressure on the hand will eventually break that thing that is holding it xD

[boca10205]

ehats wrong about owning an iphone? i own one and would like to know whats wrong about it.....

[buckamoona]

lol 3:05 

[slimswimmer]

is the filmed with your iPhone? seriously....... use the real cam please, too much noise

[SnowmuchX]

@slimswimmer Dude, I had enough of this shit ok? so what if he uses an iphone? Is his choice. He can us the fuck he wants.

[chueey14]

@slimswimmer what are you talking about?

[MonkeyHood]

@slimswimmer iphone 4 can't record in 1080P.

[WheelchairAccessible]

@slimswimmer Are you retarded? According to you, iPhones film in 1080p. I wish YouTube had a IQ requirement before people like you could post.

[AzNsEnSaT1oN]

it took them how many years to make this from their original idea of making the phantom console?!

P.S. this has gotta be the most boring product ever

[idddq]

it has a small left CTRL ; it has a small Return Key ; it has a large shift on left (which i hate) so i don't know what you are talking about in this video? anywayz, good video, thank you.

[survivor303]

where that "cool" factory is?.. plastic and plastic...

[spamllpitdept]

Less tech tips more cat tips

[GruntyStudios]

What are we doing Frantically in our laps, Linus? ;)

[GrimTheToad]

[CoolHayward]

giveaway? Please? I honestly just finished building my HTPC yesterday.

[Dwealdric]

@lucasc130 I'd say the market is mostly media PCs running through a home theater type of system. Despite what they say, I would never game with this. It wouldn't last a week.

[Teldara]

If it was chicklet style.

[SoCalyankeefan]

@lucasc130 HTPC

[Teldara]

Matte finish is the best.

[FoRcEdToDiE14]

Whatever happened to big huge Enter keys on keyboards? The ones that used to feel so satisfying to slap really hard. Yes the one on this is 'long' but it's half the hight I wish it was.

[goodman854]

looks weak.

[djzapz]

Wouldn't want my keyboard to wobble around in the air x_x

[BMSillySylvie]

It looks like it could snap fairly easily

[sbvikings30]

can razor do this so we can really get a gaming aspect

[aschris87]

@sbvikings30 that would be killer.

[sbvikings30]

kinda cool but kinda cheap

[stunnathunder]

Longer right arm? lol

[whodidthisproduction]

But can it Blend? :O

[Viperzz21]

@whodidthisproduction no!

[tndrckr]

you put it sideways so you can use your left or right hand to jack off on ur 1080p tv
