A carrying case for all your video game gear? Let's check this out
0:11
Dave Taylor here, and my youngest is a big video gamer. She loves her Xbox. She moves around from
0:18
my house to her mom's house to her sibling's house, and she wants to take everything with her
0:22
Enter this. This is the USA Gear Console Carrying Case, and it's pretty sweet. As you can see
0:29
it's not the smallest thing in the world, but that's because there's a lot going on
0:33
and there's a lot in here. So first off, we have a padded shoulder strap and a padded handle
0:40
and we have an outer container that if she wants to play a non-video game, she has Palm Island
0:48
That's nice, but let's look at what you can put inside, because that's where this thing really
0:52
shines. Now, I want to tell you that the case features a water-resistant exterior, and as you
0:59
saw, that external accessory storage. There's also another compartment here that you can use
1:06
to put in things like, I don't know, maybe your favorite gaming magazines, if they have such
1:12
things anymore, or a book that you're reading, or whatever, right? So you have that. Both of
1:19
those are on the outside. Then we get to the inside. So let me just put this on its side
1:24
because I have her Xbox in here. So it supports the entire Xbox One line, except the Xbox Series
1:34
X. That is a different form factor. It doesn't fit in here, but USA Gear has a different case for
1:39
that. All right, the whole thing's made of ripstop nylon. The inside is padded, which is nice
1:46
Let's see. I'm going to just show you. We're going to just disassemble and take everything out
1:51
So here's her Xbox One, and that fits in neatly, and it is a two-sided case with this centerpiece
2:01
here. You can see, you can just sort of do it from side to side. Everything has its little Velcro
2:07
straps and stuff, so nothing's moving around while you're moving around. There's space for cables
2:12
down here. And then if I do this flap, you can see that we have two controllers and her headphones
2:20
and even her pair of Pixel Buds if she wants to be listening to some music. And there's even space
2:25
for some more if necessary. So we take these out, too. Take her headphones out. That's a fair amount
2:33
of gear that you want to be traveling around very, very well-protected and very well-padded
2:38
And I just want to point out that all of these dividers come out, so you can reconfigure this
2:44
however you want. If you have two Xbox Ones for some reason, you could actually set this up to
2:50
bring both of them with you. Why not, right? So that's pretty much what you have with this case
2:58
It's really nice. They have a black and black version, but I have to say this black and green
3:03
interior is way cooler looking. It's just a nice looking case. When you close it up and it's empty
3:09
it is 15 inches by 12 and a half or 12 and a quarter inches by 6 and a half inches. And the
3:17
case itself is just a smidge over 2 pounds. It's really light, and I've looked at other cases for
3:23
the Xbox One, and they tend to be much bigger. This is a really nice small case. You could go smaller
3:30
but then you don't have the ability to carry all of your accessories and peripherals
3:34
So that's your trade-off. All in all, this is a definite win. I'm a big fan. My daughter was
3:40
over the moon when she realized that she could travel around with her Xbox and have it be so
3:46
easy to work with. Now, this isn't just for Xboxes, though. This will work with the PlayStation 2
3:53
though I'm not sure that the PS5 will fit in here. So you want to double check their specs
3:58
But all in all, let me just sort of pack this up a little bit. It's just really easy to work with
4:05
I really like the flexibility of the spaces. I like that all of her expensive gear is well
4:12
protected when she is traveling around because we don't want her to or us to have to replace it
4:19
And of course, you can zip it up. Now, there are a couple of limitations you want to know about
4:25
that might or might not affect you. The first one is that the sort of leather on the bottom
4:32
I feel like that might wear out fairly quickly. Maybe not. They obviously have put it there to
4:38
give it a little bit more toughness on the bottom, but there's no feet. I was expecting
4:42
that there'd be little tiny feet on here. The bigger issue for those of you that do travel
4:49
and I need to find my zippers now. Here we are. Is that the zippers don't have any little holes
4:55
on them, so there's no way to lock it closed. Now, obviously with something like this, it's a matter
5:01
of a couple of seconds work with a knife if someone really wanted to open this, but the ability to
5:06
have that little bit of privacy with a little tiny like TSA friendly airline lock is really nice. So
5:13
I would like to see them change even just the zipper pulls. So you have that as an option
5:18
but all in all, that's really all I have to say. This is a really great case at a good price. It's
5:24
a totally smart investment. If you ever move your Xbox or your PlayStation from room to room
5:31
or more importantly, from house to house or take it on vacation with you, this is a no brainer way
5:37
to carry it around in a way that'll make sure that it's in great shape when you get there and
5:42
great shape when you get home again. So that's all I got. Let's just talk about the price
5:46
but before we get to the price, I'm going to ask if you don't mind, can you go ahead and click on
5:50
that subscribe button? Really appreciate when you subscribe to my channel. Cool. Now this is the
5:57
USA Gear console carrying case for the Xbox One line, except the Xbox Series X. So that's a
6:05
different one, but this one is in black only or in black and green, which I prefer. And it's $54.99
6:14
at amazon.com, which is a pretty solid price. This is definitely a win if you or someone in your
6:20
family travels around with any of these video game systems. This is a great solution. Definitely
6:25
worth checking out. And with that, I think I need to hook everything back up before my kid gets home
6:30
and says, dad, what are you doing with all my video gear? So I'll have to catch you in my next video
