Try to keep it on track. Bickering doesn’t help anyone and is a waste of energy.

It was a good unboxing video. Could it be more in depth? Sure. Was it a unboxing video, yep, but this is t brs.

Was enough for me to get a size comparison and look at the product.

Very interested to follow Daniel on this post!

Thanks for taking the time and putting in the effort on this man!

Don’t let it hurt your feelings, just think of it as constructive criticism on how you choose to treat other people.
We can’t always live in a world that is light and fluffy and give out participation trophies. You seem to be meaner than I am so look in the mirror buddy.

All that's going to matter in the long run is how this works. As long as it doesn't have an everything is okay alarm sounding every 5 seconds it will be fine. The unboxing video was good, gave a general idea of the size and what's included.

Also congrats for finally getting it in your hands after all these years. Looking forward to following your progress.

You should. You have a product that really hasn’t been mass released. Take some time and show off each aspect of the Mindstream during the unboxing. Big opportunity to be the first to share a lot of exciting new info to R2R. The video left a lot to be desired.
For sure. I didn't have time to do much last night, but I'm preparing a much more detailed video today. I'll have it up in a few hours.

Ouch...That was pretty rude. I appreciate him making the video and sharing it with us. I thought it was just fine for an initial unboxing. I hope you didn't scare him away from making more videos about this product. I really want to see more.
Nah. It's ok. I'm thick-skinned. :) I wanted to do a better video anyway, but yesterday just didn't have the time available. But I did want to at least show everyone what was in the box! :cool: Making a quality detailed video takes time (at least it does for me), but today I'm putting in the time to get a (hopefully) much better one together to share with you guys.

While I enjoy a polished video...I don’t know if I can wait to hear your initial thoughts. Was setup smooth, is it silent, and most importantly...does it test as advertised and how do the results compare to other testing?

I think the comment regarding the video had good intentions...it was just the last sentence that overshadowed the rest. We also all know that things don’t always come across as the person writing it intended it to.

Okay...I hope you are not reading this and working on that video!

Thx for the unboxing and sharing. I cannot wait to see how it does and the report you give on it.

Also, you did a ton better than I would have done for an unboxing. I would have been that ADHD kid ripping things open and going straight to figuring out how to install it, set it up, and all that good stuff. After that long of a wait, it would have been a mad house in a video lol.
