You seem to mix the style of your review, It would be better in my opinion, if you either reviewed the performance, or the build, but not both in one video. If you are going to review the building, you need to slow down your speech and the way you disassemble the product. If you are going to review the performance, you should skip the building part and only point out the likes or dislikes of each part and its overall performance. As far as video quality, I would recommend that you deaden the sound by adding stuff like, blankets on the floor or egg crate style padding to a few walls around you, your voice echos a little. Lighting, you could use a little gold lighting to your view, to much white lighting and or fluorescent in their makes for blurry resolution and shadows. Make sure your hands are in the camera's eye the whole time.....However, it is a great video and a good sign if this is your first video review! Good music choice and good editing. You should be making pro vids in no time flat! Thanks for putting forth such effort for your fellow community!

P.S. I agree, I like clones, but would rather see no logos on clones.
