Sony Personal 3D Viewer Unboxing & First Look

**Unboxing and First Impressions: A High-Tech Headset**

As I booted up this video game, I couldn't help but think about how much time I was going to spend playing it. The device is designed for extended gaming sessions, with no specific time limit in mind. "Who knows?" I thought to myself, "so so uh let's get a closer look at what cabling is included." It turns out that the manufacturer has included an HDMI cable, which is always a bonus. I love it when manufacturers include these essential cables in the original packaging, as it makes setting up the device a breeze.

The headset comes with several accessories, including fitment options for the ear cups. These small contraptions are designed to be applied to the actual headset and provide a softer touch. There's also an HDMI cable that I mentioned earlier, which is clearly marked as "HD Mi" on the packaging. Additionally, there's a power module that makes everything possible. The front side of this module features ports for connecting the headset, while the back has indicators for the pass-through feature and AC input.

**The Headset: A Close Look**

When I finally got to hold the headset in my hands, I was impressed by its build quality. "This baby was made in Japan," I read on the packaging, which suggests a high level of craftsmanship. The actual headset includes a long cable that provides plenty of flexibility when it comes to positioning it in relation to the gaming console or device. There are also several head pieces included, labeled A, B, and C, each with a different depth to provide the optimum fit.

As I examined the headset further, I noticed that the head pieces can be adjusted to achieve the perfect fit. The "A" piece is pre-installed at the moment, but it's clear that users will want to try out each option (B and C) to get the best possible fit. Since this device is not light, it may pose a challenge for friends who want to try it out, as they'll need to purchase their own headsets.

**Configurability and Features**

One of the standout features of this headset is its configurability. The head strap on the back can be adjusted to accommodate different head shapes, while the top button allows users to loosen or tighten it for a comfortable fit. The bottom side of the headset features a visual portion that looks like a pair of glasses, with several buttons for configuring settings. While I couldn't see what these settings were, as they are not displayed on-screen, I'm eager to try out the device and experience its features firsthand.

Finally, the proprietary cable is long enough (around 10-12 feet) to provide the necessary separation between the two eyepieces for 3D stereoscopic video. This feature allows users to adjust the distance between each eyepiece to represent the distance between their actual eyes, which can enhance the overall gaming experience.

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, this high-tech headset is a cool device that's sure to appeal to geeks and nerds alike. While it comes with a hefty price tag, I believe its features and configurability make it worth considering for serious gamers. As always, thanks to my subscribers for their support – more unboxings are on the way, including a preview video featuring some of the items you can expect to see soon!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at the Sony personal 3D viewer now this is obviously an unusual device it's a headset SL cyborg helmet you wear this thing and basically you get a 3D perspective equivalent to what it would be like to sit in front of a like say for example 150 in TV now there are a couple of different ways to set it up you can either put your HDMI Source straight into the hmz 1p that's the code name for this device or you can set up pass through so you can still send video to your flat panel display and have it come through the headset as well now this is actually HD OED technology with 3D as well and it's even got 5.1 Channel surround sound emulation to make you feel even more like you're there whether you're watching a Blu-ray or playing a game or anything along those lines now I tried this thing out in the store and it is absolutely crazy it's impressive you can configure the distance between each eye which gives you incredible 3D separation visual separation that you can't get out of a traditional pair of say 3D glasses when you're using your flat panel I'll give you guys more information on that in a quick second but first let's get all the items out of the box we had the headset first followed by a little bit of paperwork and there's actually a lot of cabling included that's because this is not a fully portable unit you have to be near this module down here on the bottom so it is wired you're going to need to be close to your HDMI Source but that makes sense anyways because who's going to carry a you know a PS3 when they're when they're jumping on the subway or or the bus or something it's just not going to make much sense so anyways you are going to have to be Tethered to your console so the first thing we're going to look at is the paperwork that's going to tell you how to get this thing set up and running now it is fairly configurable from a fit standpoint after all you're going to want it to be comfortable so that's the very first thing you're going to want to do after looking at the guide here is adjust the headset so that you get a comfortable fit it is pretty heavy but once you get that comfortable fit it it actually feels pretty good especially if you're sitting with your head tilted backwards lying down on a lounge chair something along those lines you're going to want to get comfortable because as we all know when you get that video game booted up you might play for a couple of hours a few hours who the hell knows so so uh let's get a closer look at what cabling is included um I was actually very surprised to find out that there is an HDMI cable I love it when manufacturers put the HDMI cables in the original packaging it's always a headache to have to go out and purchase one it's like it's like when your device ships without batteries say for example it needs doublea batteries and they aren't there and you can't get it up and running especially if it's late at night which is when I usually do my unboxing so having the HDMI cable included is a big bonus these little Contraptions here are all about fit um these things you can apply to the actual headset and those those particular ones fit around your ears to give you a softer touch there's that HD Mi cable that I mentioned a quick second ago other than that you've also got power and this is the module here that makes everything possible it makes everything happen on the front side of the module is where you're going to see your port to connect your actual headset uh it looks proprietary to me at least I haven't seen this particular Port before you've also got what will be some Led indicators represented probably under the pass through uh designation there as well as the power designation and then on the back you've got your HDMI in and out uh that's obviously important for that pass through feature and then your AC in you also see this baby was made in Japan uh lastly we've got the actual headset including a really long cable which is nice you might want to be a little bit further away from your HDMI device or gaming console Etc and then there are some head pieces included they're labeled a b and c each one has a different depth to it now that's important again for getting that correct fit because after all uh this device is going to live on your head on your face so here's a better look at each one obviously C being the largest in terms of head pads uh B fitting somewhere in the middle and a being the smallest the a is pre-installed at the moment but you're going to want to try each one out to get the optimum fit the optimal fit because as I mentioned earlier this thing is not light and uh the only problem I foresee here is if your friends come over want to try it out it's going to be tough to get them all set up and running you got to go tell them to buy their own so here is the headset I'm going to call it a headset um and you can see that even this even the speakers on the side the headphone portion is very adjustable you can move it in out anything to fit your needs the head strap on the back here is also adjustable there's a button on top that loosens it up otherwise it's locked into place I mean this thing is very configurable to make sure you get the right fit so just don't strap it on and start playing mess around with it get it right that way you're going to get the best experience out of it on the bottom side you can see the actual visual portion it looks like a a couple of glasses you've got some different buttons down here for controlling the configuration um which actually takes a while to get used to because you can't see what you're configuring um and then lastly we've got this proprietary cable which I said is pretty long I think it's probably between 10 and maybe 12 feet so you can be a fair distance from that console here's what I talked about earlier you can get the optimum um uh what is it separation for the 3D stereoscopic video because you can adjust the distance between each eyepiece to represent the distance between your actual eyes so that's that's a really cool thing and important thing and then you've also got your controls your d-pad okay button menu button etc those are also accessible down in that location and uh anyway guys this is a really interesting item I can't wait to really test it out use it and see what it's all about it's obviously not for everyone it's a pretty high price tag Etc but uh definitely a cool device for any geek any nerd any cyborg whatever anyway guys if you enjoyed this content hopefully you can like and favorite this video as it does help me out a bunch if you haven't subscribed yet please go ahead and do so and expect more unboxings now that I'm back from Vegas back from CES 2012 I got a lot of cool stuff on the way including a preview video which is coming up next of some of the items you can expect coming up soon anyway guys I want to thank you for watching as always you guys make this content possible more on the way I'll see you guys on the next one laterwhat's up guys
