Well there is a market for stuff like that. But $120 is still to much for them. I once gifted a "car" mouse to my dad. He loved it and it lasted for years. It wasn't a good mouse, but he didn't need a good mouse. The gimmick was better. I think i payed around $30 for it and it was a much better quality.
@@thunderarch5951 Well yea its worse then some e-waste pheriprhals in pre built pcs atleast sometimes rarely that are as good as a like 10 dollare logitech mouse which has okai latency and feels like it wont just fall apart so can be used if needed

@@MainChannel1999 They owe taxes, but use loopholes to escape those. So TECHNICALLY yes they don't legally owe anything, but that's a bit of a "Richard" move.

This mouse is surprisingly common in Germany. Obviously every Porsche car dealership has it, but I have also seen it multiple times at random colleagues, auto repair shop, public office buildings and friends desks over the years.
I have never seen it in Germany but I also don't hang around Porsche dealerships all day. If I ever saw one outside of a dealership I would publicly shame and laugh at that person now that I now how much this junk actually costs lol

I like how David intuitively changed his whole body language and posture in his "I'm a salesperson clicking on things at a Porsche dealership" persona at 5:09
This mousepad material is literally what you get in a Porsche if you don't pay for the optional leather upholstery. It's surprisingly bad for the money.
Back in the mid to late 90's you had all of these cheap mice in all sorts of shapes (LGR does loads of videos on them, worth a watch). They were usually 5-25 dollar mice (or euro, in my case) at 'cheap crap stores'. This is that, but wireless, and with a mousepad. Back in the 90's they wouldn't have gotten away with it, now they can. Insanity.
If you're an experienced fan of _Top Gear_ you'll already know (and be less than surprised) this is just the latest in ridiculously over-priced branded non-car crap that the Porsche company pumps out to fleece their brand fanatics that don't even own one of their cars.
Porsche design usually does amazing industrial looking stuff that are severely overpriced... But still like their car you get one of the best in the business. This is like Disney store level stuff.
Well this isn't even listed on the Porsche Design website and it doesn't bare the logo either. On Porsches website it's listed as being sold by Porsche Design of USA but I'm under the impression that Porsche Design had nothing to do with this mouse (design-wise) and that it's more likely an accessory that you would find on a dealership shelf.
And Porsche selling this crap e-waste is a crime against mouse users, child labor in China, and a straight up criminal for having the balls to price this plastic crap for 120$
I know its only like 120 bucks to your company, But please. For the love of consumers everywhere. Go through with the return policy. Get your money back. This is a disgrace to the porche name.
Wdym? Razers X series mice come with AA batteries too and AA batteries are so much better since they’re future proof and you can easily replace them with rechargable batteries it’s basically the next step in the right direction because that produces less e waste
@@stiegelzeine2186 “Future proof” implies the current technology will be able to compete with future technology, not that it’ll be durable and have good longevity. I agree with you though, I love AA/AAA batteries in a mouse
I once went to a Porsche dealer for service (the guy I bought the car from paid for it), and everyone who worked there had the Porsche mouse at their computer.
Just waste in general needs to be talked about more. People complain about how cheap everything is/feels these days while not doing any research into any product to find out where the good stuff is. Companies making stuff to be thrown in the trash later is a bigger problem than it should be. Just make good shit!
The plastic and overall design remind me of those discount knockoff brand children's toys. You know the ones I mean? Like instead of getting a Pixar Cars toy, you'd get something called "Play CARS" or whatever, that have a simpler design, made with cheap plastic, but are colourful and have poorly applied paint jobs or misaligned stickers for detail.
If I were told porche made a computer accessory, I would have imagined an over engineered aluminium art piece more for displaying wealth than practical computing
You ever wonder if the only ones upset at the pronunciation are from those who don't own a Porsche? Who knows! What I do know from the comments is that I will now on say Porsch. Thanks David. Loved this video 🖱
I think it's legitimate to be German and to cringe when you hear it because what you don't understand is that this is not a mispronunciation of the name in America, it's a nickname. Calling a Porsche a "Porsh" is exactly like calling a "Chevrolet" a "Chevy." We all know how to pronounce Chevrolet, in the French way, and we do when we say that word, just like I pronounce Porsche correctly when I say the word Portia.
I LOVE how visibly mad David is, and 10000% right there with ya, this is total shite!!! I kept yelling at the video while watching it, what the hell are they thinking $120!?!?!
Can someone reach out to Porsche and get a statement on this? I’d love to see them try to justify making something that cost 2 dollars and selling it for 200. Not to mention the brand’s reputation should absolutely not be ok with such an inferior product having their name on it.
I have a $5 Lambo mouse with what looks like the exact same board and would say it has the same problems. (It was a novelty gift to me, I use a G502) Half the box was in Chinese. $100 bet that the same company makes this mouse and they just bought them, put them in a new box, and marked them up 1000%.
That looks like a mouse, that cost probably 2,50$ to produce, and they sell it for 120$. Wouldn't even be surprised if they just made a deal with some cheap company in China, that already sold these mouse as fakes, and just gave it their seal of approval.
I get the idea that if someone designed and 3D printed this, 2 things would happen: 1. It'd be better 2. They'd get sued to death for blasphemy against the Porsche brand. What a silly world we live in.
Seems like souvenir I would 100% buy from Porsche Museum, I already Have Porsche 917 model in that livery and Duck in 917-style colors from Porsche museum. That Mouse would fit So well that I would try To work with it Just for the style points Not for 120 USD tho
9:01 of course it felt mushy and rubbery, they used those round push button switches instead of proper micro switches every other mouse manufacturer use for the left right buttons.
@@mauricevsnderlinfeb7743 it says "sold by porsche design" at 0:44 so without further research im not 100% sure about that. Also having worked with computer electronics from porsche design in the past I can tell you that at least their first generations of devices like the book one were made by trekstor, which is a budget brand, and the quality, issues and drivers for that device really showed it. Totally overprized and even if money wasnt an issue you would be better off with something different.
I find Porsche putting out a crappy mouse pretty surprising. Usually Porsche design's stuff is fairly high end nice stuff. To be clear, in case anyone doesn't know, Porsche design and Porsche automotive are two separate companies.

How compressed in video quality is this video? The closeups of the mouse's red surfaces are a noisy mess of artifacts.
