Tommy Hilfiger recently released their Gaming Set - a keyboard, mouse and headset combo that is possibly the most cynical cash grab we've ever seen.

They really tried to market the gaming gear like a clothing line by listing the materials, but yet they couldn't bother to make sure everything matched.

I'm worried about the hand assembled circuitry. Usually getting a person to do something is more expensive than getting a robot to do it. But that only applies if you pay the person.

Telling Linus he's not allowed to take a device apart yet is like telling a child on Christmas Eve that they have to wait until the next day to open their gifts.

This feels like a product idea that was pitched 8 years ago, got forgotten about, then someone dug it up and was like "oh snap, we should try to recoup some money on this and sell it!" Listing 5+ year old console compatability cracked me up

I love struggling for a job as a product design engineer, then seeing that someone was actually paid with actual money to create this box of e-waste.

I absolutely love how they put "10% sponge" on the headset materials, hardest I've laughed in a while

This says a lot about how TH see their customer. Not so much into tech, but love the brand. I guess they took the same approach as they do with their clothing line - find the cheapest sweatshop manufacturer, put the label, and sell as a premium product. Well done. I am sure their stock is doing great.

Tommy has been doing this SINCE DAY ONE!!!
MANY years ago (1993) my buddy moved to Miami and UPS lost his box and I had a friend who was a manager at Burdine's (Macy's bought them out - same type store) and could give him her manager's discount so he could by clothes, but he was on a budget of $250. Of course, him being a New Yorker, he wanted "name brand" everything and he saw this Tommy Hilfiger sweatshirt and loved it even though the only notable Tommy anything was the silkscreened logo on the breast. That Shi(r)t was $99 and I told him dude just buy the champion sweater for $16 instead and he was like you can't compare. So I exposed the tag on the Tommy sweatshirt and it was literally the exact same Champion sweatshirt!!! He looked at me like oh!
Screw TH and anyone partaking in these deceptive practices!

Fun fact, Tommy Hilfiger actually got into the gaming industry over two decades ago with a special edition Game Boy Color with their logo on it.

Cant believe they didn't test if the keyboard truly was waterproof, I was waiting for that moment the entire video

The product spec sheet was probably written by a clothing merchandiser. That bundle belongs in the clothing section of Target.

I am sure it is a lie and they just pulled the product but the product page now says "We're sorry, this product was so popular, we've sold out." Nice job LTT!!

Holy crap my mother in law almost got this for herself for christmas and I stopped it from happening. So happy to hear you guys tearing into this

I think my favorite part of the false advertising is the fact that the box shows all the lights as solid red across the devices and none of them are capable of doing that. lol

26:37 The black blob isn’t there to prevent reverse engineering, it’s a Chip-on-board covered in epoxy to protect the die, which is directly bound to the PCB ("glob-top"). That’s a high-tech manufacturing method usually only found in quality products like Happy Meal Toys and other cheap-ass electronics. Basically, the IC to simple and to cheap, to afford a housing…

So as someone who has worked in apparel, I totally understand why they did what they did, the true failure is not getting a product manager from outside apparel to run this product.

I feel so bad for the kids out there who got this from their grandparents for christmas and will be stuck with it for ages.

Man I love how much Labs is paying off, even in the somewhat early days.
Being able to go beyond "Man this is crap" and actually being able to quantify professionally exactly why and how it's crap is fantastic.

LTT : Spends 3 years designing a screwdriver because they Linus won't accept the color of the accent in the handle being slightly different than he wants it. Sells it for $70.
Tommy Hilfiger : Buys the cheapest Chinese products they can find for $10, doesn't even bother checking if they are complete, slaps their logo on the box, sells it as a $150 luxury item.
Know your brand before you buy lol
