Exploring a Chinese Router Factory - Inside GL.iNet HQ

Video Description

IMPORTANT - Regarding the TERRIBLE focus issues during the face-to-camera recording sections, that was 100% on me recording in low light and 'trusting' the camera to do it''s job. The pains the having a mobile recording setup and trying to do too much in Shenzhen over 4 days - I have learnt ALOT from these mistakes (after shouting at myself approx 100x) and will be better next time! Hope it does not ruin the watching experience!
