Phantom Flex Camcorder Shoots 1080p Video at 2,800fps

Mmm, perforation. 1,000fps may’ve impressed with the previous model, but a whopping 2,800fps at 1080p? Wow.

Phantom Camera. 1000 Frames Per Second. Scary People. Dogs.

Seriously, nothing shows better the power of the 1000fps Phantom camera than a scary masked man cracking a watermelon open with a baseball bat. But it freaks me out. Now I need some dogs catching treats. These Phantoms are amazing. What would you film if you had one of them? [Barzart]

Phantom Lapboard Review

The Phantom Lapboard is one of those fabled legends of the gadget world, a keyboard and mouse that you can use comfortably on a couch—in the making since 2004. https://gizmodo.com/phantom-lapboard-keyboard-its-coming-maybe-342396 Phantom was kind enough to send us the first final production unit off of the line—preorder shipments should be fulfilled starting Feb 20th.

Will Smith over at Maximum PC just reviewed the Phantom Lapboard—that keyboard from the Phantom console guys which we first held for ourselves back at E3 2004. Surprise! They think the keyboard “rocks”. Their official position is that the pivoting scheme is comfortable and works great for righties and lefties. The only problem is their…

Phantom Lapboard Keyboard (It’s Coming) (Maybe)

We got our hands on a final build of the promising lap-ready Phantom Lapboard Keyboard at CES, and what can we say? It appeared every bit as wireless and ambidextrous as we thought.
