So I made a joke about naming the truck I just bought “Craig” because of the Craig lore that is now a part of this channel. Turns out the speakers in it are Craig brand. It’s a sign.
I used to have a Craig MP4 Player whenever I was really young. I vividly remember leaving it on the living room floor and my mom stepping on it causing the plastic over the screen to be badly cracked. My dad literally pryed the plastic cover over the screen up with a screwdriver exposing the bare LCD and getting rid of the cracks. Even though the thing was crap I absolutely loved it at the time.
I bought one about a year ago. the selling points were a lack of I-Tunes, and it cost about as much as a trip to McDonalds. It lasted about 6 months and sounded.. Not terrible. I can't say i feel ripped off.
I remember when I had the exact model in the video when I was a kid. I had a decent experience with it. Even survived being put in the washing machine by accident. My dad opened it up and just aired it out and it worked like new lol
In retrospect I don't think Wade realized how influential this video would be on his channel. It introduced: -Craigs -the EeePeeCee -the chocolate coated DVD drive
11:49 That's a quartz crystal, it's running the CPU's clock! That gross stuff around it is wax/super glue to hold it in place, since the legs are very thin and short. You might be able to overclock it by changing that crystal...
I'm betting an overclocked Craig would make the music sound faster too, I bet it's tied to the CPU frequency not some fancy separate clock. That would be funny for sure
Nobody: Samsung SGH-P510: Helllo, how are you today? Unfortunately, I am dead, so please recharge me! Here's a jaunty tune as I gasp my last breath! Goodb-
Definitely the kinda dude whose "screen persona" is just his regular personality dialed to 11. Love when people can still be very likeable and charismatic while some just become insufferable or annoying. It's the difference between trying hard to make it seem effortless, and putting in no effort and looking like a lunatic.
As someone who lives in California, those warnings are EVERYWHERE on EVERYTHING. Electronics, tools, water bottles, cars, hell, even most Walmarts out here have warning signs with most of that same text plastered in almost every aisle. P.S. Those Craig MP3 players were everywhere in my school back in the day, 'cause nobody could afford iPods.
To be fair though, I’d argue the warning is warranted in this case LOL We know lead is super unhealthy and exposure to it can cause brain damage. Not sure why they would choose to use such a dangerous material when they could just easily use a safer alternative Just Florida things I guess
@@aterack833 Craig used to be a big deal in imported automotive stereos (they might still be, I don't know). Back in the day they were the US importer of Pioneer and a lot of fancy disco era 8-track players will be branded Craig-Pioneer. Poor company got the Bell + Howell treatment in the years since.
This guy in my class was like bragging when I was in middle school about how he had an mp3 player and an mp4 player. Some other kid embarrassed the shit out of him and said “i have a phone”
Craig used to make budget sterio equipment in the 60s and 70s. They made reel to reels, record players, receivers and things like that. I'm sure this is just rebates for that.
LdeinerProductions I was just about to comment on that. My first car (a hand-me-down 1974 Dodge Charger) had a Craig 8-track player installed under the dash. It worked.
I would imagine that, these days, the trademark is owned by some kind of holding company which carries on the legacy by slapping the name on crappy Chinese audio gadgets.
Craig was (im not sure if they are still around) one of those cheap electronic brands you'd see in pretty much every store that sold some kind electronic around the mid 2000s in the states. They were cheap, has little to no quality control, and broke super quick. They made pretty much one of everything.
_"The Craaaaig!"_ I lost it at the chockey biscuit part, hilarious mate. More Craigs please W... and Aarons and Joes and Franks and Beans (ok you see what I did there...)
we had a craig when i was in middle school he carved pentagrams and the name of one of my friends into his arm and we didnt see him for years after that
As a North American viewer, I feel I must explain the significance that Craig electronics had to me. It’s really nostalgic, honestly. It reminds me of a time when I would go into CVS and just see a whole row of these lined up (because let’s be real, no one really bought these). I know I would buy at least one when I knew I was going someplace that I could potentially lose or damage my iPod, but that’s mostly just because these things were that cheap. They were almost always on sale, so I doubt I ever paid full price for one. Good times. I’m glad you have a Craig collection. It’s just funny to me that they never had them in Australia. For us, they were basically ubiquitous, yet no one had them. It’s a very odd paradox.
I love how you can both be over the top funny and entertaining and then be serious and give a fair review and criticism I think you have a really good balance. Informative and funny keep it up mate
@@Windows2000Professional.s I know that now. that was my initial though and it was hilarious to me how absurd it sounded until my brother explained... granted he was confused the same way I was until HE looked it up first. :P

the really amusing thing to me is that between the brand new Craigs and the brand new iPods opened on this channel, the Craigs actually turn on and work a lot more often
Just found out how amazing Craig is! They have a website and sell drones, speakers, HDMI cables, dash cams, alarm clocks, VHS tapes, phone VR case things, selfie sticks, chargers (lots!), fake AirPods, boom boxes, CD players, portable DVD players and last but not least Windows tablets! Most of this stuff has Craig beautifully brandished on it.
The disclaimer at 3:00 is a ROHS warning required for anything being sold in the US that uses leaded solder (it can apply to other things but mostly just that). It just means that the wires were attached to the pins with regular solder instead of the tin-silver crap.
This Craig was my very first mp3 player.. Once I was staying overnight somewhere and I forgot its charger, but I had my kindle charger so I charged it with that. After that it would only play the first song that was on it (in alphabetical order) on repeat and nothing else.
