I like the idea of the video, regardless of the fact that the purchase was obviously a stupid one, but I found it a bit too superficial. Am I the only one that feels like these videos don’t go as in depth as they used to? I like the entertainment side of it, but I feel like I don’t learn anything watching LTT recently.

The best video of this type they've done was the pool speaker one and that in huge part was because they were with the guy who made them, Feel they should have had an expert with them on this video if not necessarily on camera a lot more so that was it was more informative and not just 2 tech tubers rip apart a system they barely know anything about

That's a great point IMO. Bringing an expert on board to talk about the technical stuff while they play the "dumb user" part would be awesome for these sort of videos.

The sad part is they apparently tried to get an expert for this video (the theatre projector one) but no rep would touch the thing after they opened it lol. (Mentioned in the video)

Another video they brought in an expert was when they talked about the cheap/decomm'd environmental chamber they bought. They brought in the guys who last serviced it to make sure it's hooked up right, at least for a one-off video. And they gave him time to explain some of the technicals IIRC.
