Gixie Clock: Redemption

Рет қаралды 342,511

Күн бұрын

I've received the all-new re-engineered replacement for my Gixie Clock - here's a full review.
The Gixie is a digital clock that displays time using six removable glass tubes containing etched acrylic panels edge-lit by multicolour LEDs.
The Gixie Clock is available from www.indiegogo.com/projects/gi... (this is not an affiliated link)
FULL DISCLOSURE: The two boxed clocks seen in this video were sent to me for free (other than £18 duty and handling fees I paid the courier at the door - well I gave him £20 because I didn't have any change and neither did he). I have not been paid to make this video. I am not on commission.The people who sent it over said it was up to me whether or not I made a video, but they just wanted me to see the updated one anyway. I’m not sure whether it counts as a Paid Promotion because I got a free clock (but I’ve ticked the Paid Promotion box to be on the safe side) - I'll be giving the new spare one away and the other one is a replacement for my broken original that I paid for. It's up to you to make your mind up if you think this video is honest or not - but whether or not you buy a clock doesn't matter one jot to me.
PFAQ (Predicted FAQ)
Q) Why is there a picture of a cheese sandwich on screen at the beginning?
A) A while ago on Patreon I coined the phrase ‘A cheese sandwich video’ to describe a simple video that’s exactly what it is and nothing more - just like a cheese sandwich is a sandwich containing cheese.
A cheese sandwich video is simpler video that doesn’t take weeks to assemble. It’s usually a brief demonstration of one item.
If you see a cheese sandwich image pop up at the start of a video - it's a sign to expect a less complicated and elaborate video. Sometimes all a product needs (or deserves) is a simple demonstration - and that’s where the ‘cheese sandwich‘ video comes in.

I should note that the maker of the clock actually linked the previous video in their update addressing the issues. That is class, right there: they admitted the problems and were honest about the criticism. No insincere half-apologies, no hiding of the issues, just "hey, we did screw up, here's what we did wrong, and here's how we fixed it."

First off: I salute and applaud the makers of the clock for recognizing their failures, promising to repair them and then doing so quickly. That's called "customer recovery" and is a central tenet of good business. Second off: if you hadn't embarassed them publically and disastrously on KZfaq using an 874k sub channel, they wouldn't have even returned your emails. I'd bet you $1000 on it. Because it's happened to me. Twice, actually. That's called "Chinese Internet Commerce" and is a central tenet of the Internet in 2019.

You think they can afford a third party product(not produce, this isn't lettuce mate) testing firm? The term for that is quality assurance btw, and QA for people who aren't billion dollar companies more often that not covers "expected informed use case" in other words how do those who know how it's intended to be used use it. So twisting the bulbs is easy to miss.

The thing is, by outlining what was wrong, you actually helped them fix the issues

I'm really glad to see that the creators of the product made improvements to the design, I might actually get this thing now.

Good on them for making it right and fixing their product. Very true that most people cash out and bro down. They just don't care after they have your money, but that is everywhere.

Sad that we need to be in awe of basic human decency but glad both you and the Gixie team seem to still have it. Now if only I had the sort of money for all this myself...

Yes, it is good when manufacturers accept responsibility for their missteps and recover by doing better the next time. GC does seem like an interesting and novel product that gadget oriented folks might well enjoy having/receiving.
