Welcome everyone to Ricky's tech talk as you may have seen in my previous video i recently unboxed
and set up the brand new ps5 in today's video i will be taking a look at two new accessories from
geotech which we have shown on the channel previously the first is the vp1 viper cable
pack which includes the following one times hdmi cable which is two meters in length one
usb to usbc which is three meters in length a hdmi cable up to 8k to connect your ps5 to a monitor or
tv that supports 8k of course not too many of us have an 8k tv and the cable to charge your
controller so let's take a look at them here is the vp1 viper cable pack here and as you can see
we've got braided cables white and black in color we have some key information down the side here
is that it's viciously robust 8k and 4k compatible hdmi 24 carat gold plated connections 3a
fast charging usbc and premium braided cables this also works for the xbox series s and x and the ps5
fully compatible so on the back here you can see it highlights some key areas that i've spoken
about and also shows you the cable in greater detail but let's actually take a look at the cable
now so along the top we've just got a little bit of tape that we need to cut so a little bit there
a little bit in there so if he's lucky enough to get a playstation 5 or an xbox series s or x let
me know leave a comment down in the description it's great to hear as you can see i've got my
playstation 5 on the background here playing i've got astros playroom i've got fifa assassin's creed
so inside the box we've got our cables so let's take them both out here so first of all inside is
a little booklet here showing you how to connect your cables and to which devices if you need
any help drop a comment below and i'll be more than happy to help our first cable is our usb a
this one here so 3a fast charging and then to a usbc which is this side here
so this is reversible can go in either way and as you see on the playstation 5 the front panel we've
got usba and a usbc for charging our controller so let's connect this up first of all let's take a
little look at our actual cable here it is robust it is braided it is three meters in length which
is really good it means it's going to be really handy you don't have to sit so close to the tv
as i do anyway but you won't have to i'd like the braided aspect because this means it'll last
longer the white i don't know it's nice at the moment it goes with the playstation 5
the white shell but white seems to go dirty very quickly so i'm a little bit unsure about
that just having fun with the cable tie here so three meters in length which is plenty long enough
so let me just connect this into the playstation now so the usba is connected into the playstation
my dualsense controller here which is absolutely fantastic to use usbc is on the top
plug in and now this should begin to charge so press the icon here
and i can see if i go along the bottom here i've got a charging icon and it is
beginning to charge which is fantastic to see and it is working which is great
so play it out it is reversible so it can go in either way the connections are really big
quite strong as well long way ricky there we go so that's in again beginning to charge which is
fantastic so that is the cable for actually charging your controller this will work with
the xbox as well if you want to use it with the s or the x model so that's great to see we then
move on to our hdmi cable this is two meters in length and it has some caps on it as well
it has the 24 carats gold plated connections here so it should be the best quality you do have one
that comes in the box as well that sony recommends you use but you can use any cable here great
massive thank you to geotech for sending this out so now let's connect my playstation up with this
hdmi cable instead see if there's any differences but i'm sure it's just going to work absolutely
fine our hdmi cable is all connected now and it's very strong very braided make sure it clicks in
properly though it didn't quite click in with mine so make sure you push it in enough so it
does connect it is working here i will test it on the lg oled tv downstairs as well but works great
with this monitor as you can see it's working we could jump into a game here so we've got
astronauts playroom here which is great game comes free with the playstation
one fun thing i like to do is go and get as many of these as you can the little astro box
if you punch them enough times they do start to follow you
as you can see we've got quite a gathering now
so if we go over here bring him on here
this ain't fun i found to do if you go in the middle of them it's another thing you can do
just have a bit of fun but as you can see hdmi cable works absolutely fine no issues whatsoever
and you can just enjoy your gaming and white cable makes it look nice it sort of all syncs up
with the sort of playstation with the controller and perfectly just moving into that let's just go
home here so to pair nicely with the playstation 5 your white cables you also have these new
white headphones here from geotech so this is the tx 50 the premium stereo gaming headset
which works for the playstation 5 as well as the playstation 4 models it can also be used on mobile
so let's unbox these and show how these work alongside with our playstation
so on the front here we've got a little bit of key information which includes so you have 50
millimeter high impact driver you have a tactile rubberized finish a robust build and i must say
from the ones that i still use now that is so very true you have a braided cable which
adds to strength and you got a multi-platform compatibility these are designed now for the ps5
you have soft touch rubberized coating and you've got your 50 millimeter high
impact driver so that's what you get on the front here come around to the side you see a design but
we're going to get them out the box anyway on the back again the same information just talking about
the information so inside your cable you have controls here for your microphone which is great
so now let's get them out of the box and i will put a link into my tx 50s i've previously shown on
the channel as well because i still actually use them and they actually work with the playstation
5 because i was using them just this morning again let me know if you are getting something
like this or you may have received it because it is i think it's the 29th of december now
we're fast approaching the new year i think we can all thankfully say goodbye to 2020 it hasn't been
the best of years i hope you've all stayed safe and well so let's pull these out set them there
so just pulling them out here so you've got geotech and information
about contacting them if you need to just a little tab i'm just pulling open
and then you have your cable as well which is threaded through here so just be careful if you
have any problems with them no quibble get in touch with them they'd be more than happy to
help you out quick start guide as well for your headphones but simply plug in and just enjoy they
are really good to use and i've really enjoyed using the other ones so let's just take this cable
out here so here are our headphones they look very comfortable really nice design again going with
the white really matches in we've got tx50 here you've got tactile design you've got nice soft
rubberized finish to them looks really nice you've got your microphone which actually bends down and
you position in the best position for you when you want to talk to friends family when gaming
nice big cups a nice big band here as well which i'm going to put on my head in a minute
soft pads here for your ears and let's figure out which one is left and right
so while i was figuring this out you can just see inside the bands there it's got a
l next to it you do have this adjustment though which is really nice to see i think i might need
that because these look like they're going to be quite snug has quite a bit of flexibility to
it which is good quite robust as well and let's move down the cable so it's a braided cable here
which is really nice to see we've got our inline cable options here so
once it's green that means people can hear you push up that means people can't hear you
being wet you have volume control as well here follows through to a 3.5 mil jack which simply
just plugs into the middle of your controller once connected into your controller press the ps button
go down go along to sound output we've got hdmi or you've got headphones then headphones you can
change and adjust and already the sound has switched from the console to the headphones
so now let's carry on with our game but now through the headphones alright so in front of the
camera i know you don't see me very often in front of the camera but i need to to show you headphones
so looking at the side you've got the side profile they fit my head comfortably we've got the
adjustments here so mine can fully adjust but i am an adult for children no problem at all we've got
our microphone that just tilts down here you can position this wherever you need it which is great
we've got our inline control options which is just close enough you do have also i've got to mention
with your control here you do have a clip to clip onto your clothes if you so want to
made a plastics i'm not too sure if that's going to break quite easily so be a bit careful there
so you do have your mute and unmute here so you've got your green and you've got your red
i've got the volume controls which i'm turning and can hear the volume go up
or down in my headset so i'm just going to play a little bit of astro's playroom
i can hear all the different noises i'm getting a sort of sense of stereo sound which is really good
and for the price points these are great value for money uh ideal christmas present if you did get
it for christmas pick it up in a january sale i will put a link in the description if you haven't
played ashley's playroom yet make sure you go and do because it is a really good game even
the secret ending it's a bit of an easter egg at the ending there so make sure you go and play that
but they look good they feel comfortable i could use these for a long period of time
yes you got the cable but that doesn't bother you it doesn't bother me if you want wireless ones
they are the sony options the pulse 3d ones that you can go and buy if you can get hold of them
at the moment but for me very happy with the two products here from geotech the headset the tx50
great style headset that works great with the ps5 works great with the ps4 ps4 slim ps4 pro it also
works for mobile because you do have a 3.5 mil jack so if you are taking a lot of conference
calls you could use that at the moment as well i will add a link in description also to the vp1
viper cable twin pack which is now charging up the controller and also powering the playstation
through the hdmi massive thank you to geotech for supplying both of these if you haven't yet already

help and for me ricky i'm gonna carry on gaming but i'll see you in my next video bye for now
