Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “What is Going on With Logitech Reviews?”.
Uh, we also need a solution to Logitech thinking that their gcloud handheld has any reason for existing uh. You know I I heard through the grapevine that some kind of Logitech gaming handheld was coming quite some time ago. Uh I was gon na, say it’s. It must have been quite some time ago because the the planning for this must have started before they heard about steam deck it must have it has to. I did not know that it was going to be a cloud gaming device Cloud. So that’s that’s the name of a product which won’t get confusing when you’re trying to look up information about it at all Cloud requires a cloud but not capitalized Subscription Service sold separately to work as intended holy good luck, Logitech such as Nvidia, GeForce, now or Xbox Game pass the specs Snapdragon 720g, so fast G is for so powerful G whiz. This sure is a mainstream tier product, octa-core CPU, 1080p, okay, IPS IPS, 450 Nets; okay, 60, hertz, that’s 12 hours battery life; oh my God, who worked on this product page. This is the fresh rate we so fresh. Does it say freshman. It says fresh rate.
That f is capitalized, it’s not cut off. That’S awesome, the fresh rate that is so sick, 60 hertz, yo fresh rate. You need another rapping video, it’s been too long.
No, I do not. I do not need that uh, stereo, speaker, okay, no, no, it’s either a mono speaker or stereo speakers. You cannot have it both ways: uh, Bluetooth, 5.1, digital USBC, headphone support, um, that’s still Analog Man. I don’t want to be that guy, but come on you guys, power adapter in the box.
That’S sick battery Watt hours wait what battery! Well I mean. Yes, that is the unit, but like the unit goes after here, and you would just say battery capacity, you wouldn’t say battery grams and then 90 grams. You would really you guys, they also, I I also enjoy that say they say battery Watt hours and then they put wad hours again but abbreviated in the spec team, redundant team, yeah, there’s reviews on the website yeah. I got ta read these because it has five stars and let me put it this way. I don’t think if we release this product on lttstore.com, it would have five stars because we assuming they’re not like spam or abusive, do not curate. The reviews on our site have you looked at the was this review. Helpful ratings. Oh hold on a second float plane is uh float.
Plane is talking about TF cards. Do they seriously say it has? Oh, my God, it has TF card expansion when’s. The last time you heard MicroSD called transflash, like I think. Like 2008, I’m not even kidding, it’s been a minute yeah again no offense like to be clear. I think Logitech builds a lot of great products. Oh you love.
Definitely, I have personally received even going back before before I was like scary to not give good service to I’ve received amazing customer service from Logitech livestock’s, one of my favorite Brands. Mad respect for Logitech this product page is atrocious. This ain’t, it Chief um, okay, so jump to the reviews or share my screen, I’m jumping to the reviews. Let’S go look at the was this review helpful section, uh, no brainer for the new wave in gaming, no Luke! I need to read these. This is a no-brainer, I don’t think.
No-Brainer means what you think. It means these feel like they were written by a commission-based retail store, employee no-brainer, because your brain fell out completely fell out through your ear. I was hesitant because of the need for constant Wi-Fi, but the world is only going more and more cloud-based, so you’ve got to get it now. You’Ve got to get it on a train not having RTX. I took a couple days to really think about it and realize it’s a no-brainer Applause for Logitech, pushing the technology culture forward that specific wording. I love and looking forward to reviewing this as well, so you didn’t review it. You just want the technology culture pushed forward.
Thank you, Cyrus L, all right. Next up, we’ve got Martin Cyrus. If you don’t include something about the technology culture being pushed forward in your actual review, I’m going to be very disappointed.
Logitech got it right. This is the definitive, perfect answer to a gap in the market that leverages unique opportunities that are booming. In the last years, foreign PC Companions and cloud gaming, incredible offering from Logitech to surf on that product line, seems with a perfect answer, looking forward to see how it has actually been executed, only question right now and then it ends uh.
Okay, no there’s a tiny space after the M that you can click on. Why no sim or e-sim slot well, because that would be terrible and then they answer their own questions. Yeah, oh, but with the huge data consumption of cloud gaming that would probably destroy your data plan in two days. Yes, that’s it also. The latency sucks like there’s no way you’d want to play on mobile, so whatever employee wrote These added an FAQ at the end of one of their reviews, which was good Dylan S says Please: Release in the UK please and Kevin S. This is my personal favorite. It’S American made yeah; no, it isn’t uh. This device is a great new addition to the world of gaming.
It has all the features you could look for in it. Okay, I think we need to examine this wording very closely. It has all the features that you could look for in it. So if you could look for the feature in it, then it has it.
I don’t know if that’s true and finally it does, and I quote everything right: okay, look at the was this review helpful. Oh yeah, these these people supposed people are getting absolutely slayed by the the thumbs up and thumbs down ratings, which is very interesting to me, because the Logitech got everything right by Martin has 65 dislikes yeah. If there was that many dislikes, you’d think that someone would click the write, a review button and write a negative review, but there is only five star reviews: yeah, so are they filtering it so that you can only see? I have an idea, I’m going to write a review. I think it has to be a five-star one to show up, but well we’ll find out we’ll find out. I’M gon na do a two star, because I you know I don’t want to be overly negative um. I’M gon na I’m gon na go with title Logitech. Has their work cut out for them to be clear? I don’t want this to be spam right, like I’m, not yeah, you should know, I’m writing a real review review and, and I’m not going to misrepresent it. I’M not going to act like I own it.
I don’t think you need to so that’s, okay, but if logitech’s line okay, if logitech’s line is that you have to be a verified purchaser, then okay, fair enough. No, it’s not! Well! That’S exactly what I’m saying yeah like: if that’s the line, then fine, that’s where the line is, but then you need to be consistent. Then the people leaving it five star reviews should also have their reviews wiped out right, I think verified reviewer means purchaser yeah. So some of them are some of them, aren’t yeah, exactly and and to be clear. You know, I’m not saying that you know your moderation will be perfect. Like I promise you, there are reviews on LTT store from people who didn’t buy it that are positive, that we didn’t remove because usually it’s just a case of nobody flagged it to us like it wasn’t so egregiously spam that it that it didn’t get flagged. But what that means is that the way our system works is things go up by default and then are pulled down? So what we’re testing right now is to see if a reasonable, balanced review – one word that where I didn’t buy it, but neither did some of the other people will make it through to their site, scored two stars: um title Logitech has their work cut out for Them here’s my review. The challenge for Logitech here is not that I feel there is a lack of demand for a cloud streaming handheld.
I look forward to being Hands-On and my expectations for the quality of the control in the display are very high, given logitech’s reputation for building excellent peripherals. However, it feels like this product was conceptualized and designed at a time when competing gaming handhelds were not yet available, and it’s a major problem for Logitech that there are other devices for 50 to 100 more. That cannot only game via cloud services, but also locally due to their much more powerful Hardware. So it may not be bad, but it’s awkwardly positioned at 150.
I could see it making sense, but that would require aggressive cost savings on the bomb, so that could oh on the bomb comma, which could hurt the experience and make it feel cheap and ultimately reflect poorly on the Logitech brand. It feels like a device that just doesn’t have a place at the price it costs to build, username line of Sebastian, email, language, Tech tips, gmail.com and we’ll go ahead and post. So it looks like that did in fact go up, and all that remains to be seen is whether it stays oh, no, it didn’t. Oh crap, you guys missed this.
Mine went up for a second yeah. I never saw it and then I refreshed and it was gone yeah, it’s not there for me, okay. So what we’ve confirmed, then, is that whatever some form of filtering yeah they’ll have to be manually approved – or it’s only five star or something whatever other good things that Logitech has done. They are clearly suppressing um, real feedback on this product in a way that I’m not like a super huge fan of.
Obviously you don’t want spam, there is, there, is people will, if you have it completely open people will post things that are not okay to have on your website. Yep um, so, like you, do need some form of filtering to be fair. I just find it extremely suspicious that, with this much negative interaction like the 70 dislikes on one of these reviews that there are zero reviews that have any form of real negative content in them or don’t rate it five stars yeah, that’s super super sus people are Saying the reviews button is gone from the main page now, so you can’t even get to the review page really what it’s there for me that doesn’t seem right, yeah. I I saw it. I was able to navigate away and I was able to go to it again.
I’Ve even been like I’m in the process of typing a five-star review. It’S amazing that Logitech has seen the future and built this product. It’S like they are looking into my mind and seeing what I want and building it before I can even think of it.
Uh Logitech, thank you for bringing I didn’t know I’ve been waiting this waiting for this. My whole life. Oh thank you for bringing the cloud future to the present uh. I only just now realized.
I have been waiting for this product. My whole life. I use your name Luke my friend here, Esquire darn, it um I’ll. Take it! Okay, let’s go! Let’S go! Okay! You guys ready you guys, ready, let’s post, let’s see okay, Luke e here uh. I love this thing. Okay, refresh it’s it’s gone and it’s gone so it’s got ta be made, but I can subscribe to Logitech G, so yeah.
It appears to be a manual review. Let’S see if anyone from Logitech watches Wan show and if they accidentally let the Luke Esquire review through you guys are gon na keep an eye on this. For us right, you need to yeah it’s so much, so I think someone’s gon na tip someone off for the Logitech. Probably, apparently the Canadian site has no review option, but the U.S site does got it, got it: okay, yeah, it’s just a bummer, the 64 gig steam deck is 3.99 and you can easily look at the 64 gig steam deck and go yeah.
That’S not enough storage! It’S a stupid device, but but then the Logitech one doesn’t have any store yeah. So you could have sums yeah some local games, it’s better than nothing, which is what it’s competing against at this price point like that’s steam deck pricing is wild valve, basically came in slapped their gigantic deck on the table and we’re like yeah we’re, like not gon Na make money so because we talked about a lot at the lunch that the that the deck was very aggressively pressed. I saw people complaining about the pricing I was like. Are you? Have you lost your your pickles? We’Ve said since the very beginning that the pricing of the deck was very aggressive, I could see yeah exactly yeah logitech’s got some crappy anemic Snapdragon 720g in here, and they still have to put it on 50 promo or whatever to to get Within within, like a Reasonable shot of what uh valve is doing with the deck Snapdragon 720g when that come out, announced on January 20 in 20 2020., because here yeah, here’s the thing if the deck didn’t exist.
What would you think of this? Pricing might be all right, yeah yeah, because looking at what Windows handhelds from companies that are not able to subsidize with 30 steam game Revenue right, like uh Aya Neo, has the uh the air which is like well. It starts at like 650 bucks, so yeah it costs half as much probably like feels pretty good, but only does like Cloud streaming. I mean, I know, there’s some Cloud subscriptions. I don’t like them, but there’s some Cloud subscriptions that get you a lot of games yeah and there’s P.
There’S people who bought PS, Vita’s, basically exclusively to stream from their PlayStation yep. That’S a thing that that is a use case where they’re only even gon na use it at home right and if I was only using this thing at home, yeah yeah at that price, like I st it would still be one of those weird curiosity like in Between products to me for sure where, but it but the pricing, if the deck didn’t exist, I would not have been surprised. I wouldn’t have said the same thing that I said about the deck like whoa. The price in here is so crazy, but I would have been like yeah. I mean I get it yeah, it’s a screen. It’S got a motherboard in it. They have to pay back the it’s probably r d cost.
Somehow a low volume product yeah like yep yeah, 100 yeah hard degree, but in a world where the deck does exist. This is a little out to lunch. .
