Do not buy this green screen. [PRODUCT REVIEW GONE HORRIBLY WRONG]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- This Neewer Green Screen Review is one of the most bizarre videos I've ever made. I was hoping to do a fairly simple price-value comparison between the Elgato Green Screen and this new knockoff, little did I know this Neewer one was quite literally garbage. No, this is not a cheaper Elgato Green Screen alternative, and no, the Elgato Green Screen is not overpriced.
UPDATE: THEY HAVE SENT ME A NEW ONE - • Maybe buy the Neewer C...

FIRSTSYDSHGH (Also when I said "I was going to try to throw it away" I meant GIVE it away!!!)
Looks like Neewer responded to your review. It will be interesting what happens, if you decide to work with them.
I'll take it off your hands - I could probably use it somewhere. Most likely in a bad review Kappa
I mean, if you're giving it away, I'll take it since I don't have a green screen.
Can you link Neewer's response? I can't find it on Google. Or is it in the comment section?
Jatorr where is there response? i'd like to see it
Tissue paper might actually work out better as a cheap alternative. Damn that is a bad green screen..
This is timed perfect. Thank you. I’ve had it in my cart for a week. Glad I didn’t pull the trigger on it yet!
why would it be in your cart if it cost more then the legit one?
Tek Overclocked last week the elgato one was sold out. Also, I have some of their video lights and was pretty happy with them. Also, when the neewer screen first hit amazon is was 139$. So it just went up within the last few weeks to higher than the elgato.
Oh hell yeah you’re lucky I took the chance on it thinking people may have had bad luck nope the screen popped from the top and I immediately got stressed the good thing is I got a full refund sending this ish back
Wow. That's fantastically bad
I honestly dont understand how Amazon can sell knock offs products that can be unsafe -imagine electronic products...
I’ve been using a pvc homemade setup that ran about $30 and works great but it takes like 10-15 minutes to setup. I had this and the Elgato in my Amazon cart for weeks. You just made my decision a lot easier. Thanks!
That really surprises me tbh. I've gotten many many Neewer products in the past and have never had issues with them, thanks for reviewing this so that I didn't go with it because I very likely would have gone with this if I did need to get a green screen.
That's insane how bad that product is compared to the Elgato screen. The Elgato screen is literally the best time saving piece of filmmaking gear i have ever purchased, no fuss and takes lieterally seconds to set up where you need it. Neewer should be ashamed of this terrible knockoff. Just goes to show how Quality control is even more important today then ever before!
You see, the problem with it rolling up is...it doesn't.
The elgato being very stable makes it pretty easy to have a platform underneath it to make it taller too !
Thanks for the review.
I’ve had the Elgato Green Screen for about 6 months. My only frustration was waiting for it. It was on backorder for a long time. I don’t use Green Screen often, but I hated setting up the posts, hanging the cloth, etc. Elegato Green Screen makes it easy for me to make a video using Green Screen with no hassle. Build quality seems decent. Neewer has some cool knockoffs at good prices. Too bad - this thing looks like a disaster.
Dang! My DIY green screen using a blanket and PVC pipes is better than *this!*
The company I work for will be making these soon. We do custom trade show displays, and the one item is a roll up, which we can easily make green and will work perfectly for this type of thing.
Holy Moly! Thank you for saving me some money. I was looking at this. Sheesh!
Thx.
You've provided a shortlist of stuff to look closely at before purchasing something similar
Thank you for uploading this video and making a review I was actually thinking about getting this brand on Amazon but I’m glad I didn’t make that mistake because I didn’t wanna do it and I’m happy I placed my order of my Elgato green screen yesterday night instead of a third-party knock off one.
My God! I've purchased many Neewer Products, but never have I seen this! I'll be avoiding them from now on! Thank you!
Thank God I found this video. I’m on the hunt for green screen. I have the neewer collapsible green screen in my cart for 3 days now lol.
I'll stick with 8... 59¢ each Dollar Tree green papers tape together....
almost a year and half later they still working fine 🙂
I had the misfortune of getting it - doesn't even roll-up properly - just like yours! ;(
Alternative to Elgato is so simple most people over look it. And they come in all difference sizes. Some roll up, some are more permanent but much much larger. Some hang from ceiling and some use tripod. They are PROJECTOR SCREENS. Just grab yourself paint roller, chroma key paint, and paint it.
Thanks for saving me from buying this disaster. Mine is being delivered in the mail today and I can’t wait. My channel is taking off now and am getting requests that this will help with. Sorry for being late to the game.
I know few years too late for this video . But maybe you need to grease up the supports and see if screws need to be tighten metal can bend but if its not tighter it will flex and likely buckle
...it literally ripped off
I know on amazon, emart has a retractable green screen. Could you do a review on that one by chance :3 im thinking of getting one for my bday since its this month :D
I got the El Gato the day it went on sale and have been more than pleased with it. It is raised and lowered approx 10-15 times a day and I've never encountered a problem.
Same!
This thing is a CHEAP knockoff that is currently selling for MORE than the Elgato LOLZERS
Also Not being able to get it back up is an issue with lots of things..
Ffeew I thought it was the Elgato one (just got it as a present) 😅
love your vids mate :)
can u make a review on camlink CL-AC40
Why didn't you put there name in the main heading..you should do that
Why would you want a more expensive alternative?
What's wrong with a green bedsheet I still wonder...
if they give you a hard time make sure you tell them you will also submit a Better Business Bureau report if this is not resolved in a quick fashion.
It came from Amazon, so the return took 10 seconds, lol. Just a pain to fit it in my car to take to UPS
Thank goodness! My Elgato arrived today
Thank You so much! I almost bought one! The green screen I have takes a little time to setup, so I figured this would be easier. I guess not.
My elgato sucks
Just bought my son a crap ebay green screen, probably made by same company, seller refunded and told me to keep as it done exactly that wouldn't roll up! Once refunded the screwdrivers came out, they just chuck them together without winding up the mechanism or it lets lose as they put it together and don't bother recoiling the spring...
A window blind color green is good and cheap
Thanks for the honest review. Much appreciated!
Yikes. That's crazy! How did they even bring this to market?
Not very carefully
I'm glad to watch this.
No doubt, the elgato was much better quality
Is there a good one that is bigger size?
Elgato is nice, but the limited dimensions kinda buffs short of my hair to actually be seen completely
Hey just wanted to say I got the same green screen and love it. I don't have any of the problems you have. I think you may have got a defective one unfortunately
I believe you, and I'm glad you got a good one, but quality control matters. When you spend this kind of money you don't want it to be a crap shoot whether you'll get a working product or a hot mess.
I smell a lawsuit
Some time ago I was thinking about getting Neewer products. Didn't know what sort of market they represent, but boy am I glad I didn't touch anything assuming everything else is of same quality. And sure it's possible that not everything is this bad I guess, but still. Thank you for presenting sound warning. :-)
Their other stuff has been fine
Wow, what a real piece of crap. Sorry you had to experience this, you save all of us from this misery, so you are a hero!
haha your frustration was palpable hahah
Just so you know the newer green screen was out way before Elgato’s. I. Use to look at it and wanted to buy it. Then I saw a year later elgato came out with one that was cheaper.
Neewer had a fold up flat one, but not a self standing retractable - they even emailed me when it was released not long before this video o_O
Not elgato product.The gas piston the from elgato are positioned in reverse. This panel is not from Elgato, it is a bad copy made badly!!
Thanks for the review mate - sharing your hardship by video stopped me from doing so in practice :O
Thanks
Feels bad you got that garbage. Mine Neewer Greenscreen makes no problem.
i used the green sheet of the bed well me wiff whent up the wall at me put it works so good not bad for £5 long as its green and dont tell wiff ur good to go
I had the same problem ur right
Thats kinda nuts, Neewer generally makes a decent product, knock off but usually decent though.
If you buy cheap, you buy 2 times
Mine want automaticity roll down.... it’s a pain
Same thing happened to me.
I'm sticking with Elgato!
a year late , this just happened to me
What song is this, i friggin love it
KHOMO GEAR Green Screen 84 x 84 inch
Thanks for the review, but why the affiliate link if the product is not recommended?
Why not? Someone might want to try it anyway (it happens) and Amazon affiliate links work on a 24 hour cookie, so I can get credit for other purchases if the link is used. If talking about products, no real reason not to drop it in the description just in case
good to know! thanks for the videos and info.
Just bought elgato green screen love it made very well
as always you get what you paid for, but in this case gone horribly wrong.
Was looking at these on amazon, decided to do some research as the previous green screen wasn't even proportionate to the frame they sent to me. I think I'm going to just get a fold out one. These have a very bad case of falling apart and are clearly a rip off of el gato. I don't think I want something that is going to be useless after a couple shoots.
Any recommendations on fold out wrinkle free set ups for photoshoots?
After this video they still havent lowered the price.... what a joke
Excellent review. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Ohhh now I get it. I thought it was an elgato when I saw your picture yesterday ;)
Nahhh the Elgato one has been solid
@@EposVox yes! I am using one of those and it's rock solid indeed. That's why I was so surprised when I first saw that pic lol
Id buy the elgato one if it was less than $120, I just can't afford it.
PROJECTOR SCREEN + GREEN PAINT
Wow. Sorry man, that sucks..
thank you so much. I almost fell into this trap.
Thanks for the warning.
Damn, what a bust this product came out to be, worst thing is that, it almost costs the same as the Elgato one :/
Also hoping Elgato/Corsair to see this if possible, pls make a bigger version of the Elgato Green Screen, at least twice as wider, it would be a good solution for actual profesional users with Chroma keying their videos for VFX post production.
Do you have any recommendations for lights for a small bedroom? I'm currently using just regular lamps from around the house and they can fine for the most part ..until I accidentally breathe on them and something moves even slightly and then everything gets messed up.
How do you always manage to break it even with the Corsair 😫😬 🤦♂️
...? The Elgato (Corsair) one didn't break..
Arozzi makes one cheaper and is so much better!
it just happen to me after 4 hours of being open what a waste of money.
Damn I thought it was an alternative or just from the same supplier of elgato but looks like cheap knockoff. EXCEPT it's not cheaper, I got the neweer last week and it has a lean forward fully extended, that I thought was initially strange. I will check my return policy.
xDD Glad I'm not crazy.
If you got from Amazon you can definitely return it
Thanks for making sure I never spend a dime with Neewer...Never Ever...WTF kinda business are they running?
lol. They should rename the product to meme screen.
Was just about to buy this thing.
Well my green screen cost me 2 usd, ill never buy a 10 usd +
It is most likely made in China. And they charge you an arm and a leg for it. Did you get it from Amazon? If so I would call them and tell about it. They shouldn't be selling things that do not work.
Yeah, I mean Amazon took my return, so that's all I needed lol.
You have just saved me buy this right now.
I'm getting an elgato one now even more so and i don't even have money!
You might be better off with a cheap green bed sheet.
If you have somewhere to hang it and get the wrinkles out, it's certainly a cheaper option for many - just not good for small spaces or where you need to take it down and put it up frequently
just paint a wall green
LMAO
1 - Hell no
2 - that doesn't work for situations where you need something that you can put up and take down, nor
3 - doesn't work in the (extremely common and only setup I've had) situation where you're not directly up against a wall.
Wow!....Thanks for saving me a PIA and some $$...great review....C'mon Neewer, back to the knock-off drawing board?!
Yuck! What a horrible knock off! I'm sticking with Elgato!
Wow. Just wow.
You look like a totally different person, but hot as always ❤️
Ps. You still somehow make videos about what i need the most at the time , it’s seriously amazing and creepy.
xD
All the reviews on amazon seem to be pretty decent except for yours? Maybe you just got a bad copy?
Pay attention to which product the reviews say they're for. I have the first review for the collapsible version, the rest are for the normal cloth greenscreens that are grouped on the same product listing. A really horrible Amazon tactic to boost reviews and confuse the shopper.
Ahhh that explains a lot... yeah that amazon tactic is really annoying as it has happened to me on other products. i didnt realise it was the same here.
I saw the same thing when I was looking into it, that's why I wanted to review it xD
You mean people expect a well-balanced mechanism with moving parts and tolerances to be for a price of a backdrop stand?
Considering Elgato did it right at less than the price of this ridiculously stupid contraption, yeah maybe.
I think the price that NEEWER put on their version is incidental, looking around i can see identical but slightly cheaper ones, edging out Elgato by a few scant dollars. NEEWER is probably not actually a manufacturer as such but a brand that markets white-label products. I don't think Elgato is making a lot of money on theirs, i mean usually photography equipment of this kind has a 5-fold margin or higher for various reasons, in part because they're targeting a niche market, but the margin on the Elgato greenscreen is certainly much much lower - if it was their core business, as a Western company they'd be heading right towards a bankruptcy.
What i mean by backdrop stand pricing, Adam mentions people complain that Elgato greenscreen is too expensive, and by too expensive they likely don't mean that it's $10 or $20 too expensive but likely twice as much as they're willing to pay, and i don't think that's happening anytime soon. Maybe someday.
(PRODUCT REVIEW GONE HORRIBLY WRONG) (GOME SEXUAL) (COPS CALLED) (HOMIE GOT SHOT)
There are at least three other "brands" of this POS model of green screen now on Amazon. I expect to see more. They are all exactly the same as this one except sold by different companies. Beware of these knockoffs.
[PRODUCT REVIEW GONE WRONG][GONE SEXUAL][NOT CLICKBAIT]
Sorry, haha. Good video.
had to have fun with the title ;) originally "2K18" was also in there
dont buy this!
u saved me
Hasn't neewer always been a terrible company?
I mean.. they make knockoffs, but I've used quite a few Neewer products and never had this level of bad experience.
Their USB mic the Neewer N3U is what a friend of mine uses for podcasts..it was pretty bad with plosives but what we discovered is that if you go to dollar tree and buy thick dress socks..and put said sock over the mic...popping noises are gone...1 dollar pop filter
Their mics are the same patentless remanufactured stuff that 500 different sellers have on Amazon, but they're usually decent. I've used a few different Neewer products and never had this issue.
haha i once bought a Condenser Mic from them.. idiot me.. it was a 3.5mm connector... how the hell would 48v phantom power feed the mic? hahaha they still sell that garbage
Most desktop PC mic in inputs provide the power required for such a mic.
EposVox i guess my PC doesn’t because this mic never worked
WOW !!
