- Welcome back to Wishtery Tech,
where we make some very
questionable decisions
on Wish purchases.
Look, this has not gone well in the past,
probably not gonna go well today,
but let's spin the roulette
wheel and see what we find.
Oh, that's so good!
It's like a 1/12 scale phone.
We should get this just for thumbnails.
Alicia: "I love it!
"Really small though."
(laughs)
- [Ken] If my Tinder had reviews.
- Ken!
Is that a naked tree?
That's a tree with (beep), that's weird.
Ooh, a racing wheel for $62.
- [Ken] Oh, that sounds
like it could be okay.
- Refurbished though?
- [Ken] Yeah.
- For 62 bucks?
- [Ken] How much is the
shipping, 'cause that's--
- Free shipping.
- [Ken] Oh, then that sounds good.
- Whoa, look at this!
Only one second, go from this to this.
That's a great Photoshop.
Oh, interesting, a 32 mil F1.6
manual aperture and everything
lens for Sony E-Mount.
- [Ken] Let's get that.
- What is this?
It's a girl eating a microphone?
- [Ken] Is that Taylor Swift?
- Not all white people look alike, Ken,
although most white girls do
look alike (clears throat).
I found a $56 MacBook.
- [Ken] Ohhh....
- Oh, you clickbait (beep).
It's an iPad keyboard.
- [Ken] (laughs) Now you
know what it feels like
to be one of your viewers.
- Damn.
Yeah you make the thumbnails,
you can't blame it on me.
Oh my god, do you want
an intelligent voice
translating earphone with 28 languages?
I mean, we have to try
this, this looks ridiculous.
- [Ken] Yeah, sure.
- Hmm, a 400 watt solar panel.
Do you think we are going to get 400 watts
out of a $50 solar panel on Wish?
- [Ken] Probably not.
- Should we try it?
- [Ken] Sure.
For 62 bucks, that just
seems like it will be
a fun gag outside.
Ken, look the 2021 upgrade of the Beats.
We're in the future.
- [Ken] That's um, pretty
sure that's illegal.
- Wait how is it
refurbished if it's in 2021?
Okay, I'll buy it.
Do you want a Shure SM57?
- [Ken] That looks kind of official-like.
- We can try it, 27 bucks.
- [Ken] Yeah, no, do it.
- Okay, the 1600 DPI
optical USB gaming mouse,
which actually looks
really cool in the photo.
I mean sure it's terrible,
but six bucks, why not?
All right, so with that I think we have
all the items we need for our
Wishtery Tech Extravaganza.
Now I'll be back in like two months
when these things actually all show up.
Oh well hello, and
welcome back my friends,
it is currently three months later
as for some bizarre reason
Wish shipping was delayed.
However, we're back
with my invisible mouse.
- [Matt] I gotta tell ya,
from over here it doesn't
look very invisible.
- Can you see me, Matt?
Am I invisible yet?
- [Ken] It actually doesn't
look that bad, though.
It sounds good.
- [Matt] It doesn't sound bad.
- It doesn't feel good,
it feels very hollow.
Let me actually plug it in
and see what it's like to use.
Oh, I forgot it's RG (trails off).
B (laughs) it's just B.
- [Matt] Well no, it's
got a little R in there.
- Look the problem is, is that the mouse,
because it has no like
sort of rear anything,
the entire weight, mind
you it's very light,
but the entire weight's on the front,
so as you go to move it,
it's almost kind of front heavy,
because there's literally
nothing back here
besides just a little grip
to sort of keep your
hand from falling over.
See, if I try to push this down,
the entire mouse is picked up,
but I mean it's pretty easy
to be reasonably accurate.
Now I'm just using like a
normal like wood surface here
which is not remotely smooth.
- [Matt] So, it's really
pissing me off that they put
a single super bright spot on--
- Oh, you're right,
it's just right here,
it's not on this side.
So there's one LED in this entire side.
In fact, there's only one LED period.
Essentially, it's just
reflecting through the plastic,
'cause look--
- [Ken] The laser.
- Yeah, and then the laser--
- [Ken] Yeah, the laser
actually shines through the top.
- Wait,
I just realized that's not the laser,
that's not an extra light,
that's just the laser
firing up or something right?
- [Ken] Yeah, that's not an LED.
- It's fine,
we paid almost nothing for this.
If you don't mind waiting several months
for it to show up, I'm
pretty happy with this,
that's actually legitimately pretty cool.
I mean I don't know if
I would recommend it,
but I definitely used much worse
mice and some of those mice
were more expensive so...
Oh this stupid thing.
What is this?
Wait, that's it?
We don't have any pedals for it?
Ken, pedals are a very key
important component here.
So this is what I am almost positive
is a used 458 Thrustmaster wheel.
- [Matt] A used Thrustmaster?
- [Ken] You don't want those used.
- It's clearly designed for an Xbox,
because you have the XYAB,
which you have your little
mode selector switch.
I bet you guys should program
that into F1 to, I don't know,
open up DRS or something,
but I do have a racing set up
at home with a pretty
nice wheel and pedal,
so I'm curious to see how this lines up.
What I don't have is a chair.
Hello there, Tiny Austin here,
I'm gonna say right now this
is not the most seamless
smooth of experiences,
mostly 'cause my pedals move,
and, uh, I'm making excuses.
- [Matt] I feel like
you make excuses a lot
when you go to play a racing game.
You're like, "I'm so
good at racing games."
- Okay, you know what, Matt?
- [Matt] And you always have an excuse--
- That's fine.
- [Matt] for why you're not good at it.
- Oh wait, I have a good excuse.
I don't know how the buttons work.
- [Matt] That's an okay excuse.
- Yeah, that's a pretty good one, right?
- [Matt] I'll give you that one.
- I don't think its working.
(buttons and pedals clicking)
- [Matt] So, there's a review on Amazon,
which I quote is, "A great wheel,
"but not for PC Master Race.
"This is a truly great
product, and I love it,
"but it does not work on PC
out of Xbox Play Anywhere
"racing games, even though it's USB.
"There is no way that I have found
"to trick a game into seeing it."
- Well that's unfortunate.
Oh, I caught it.
Ugh, so these are our
Beats Studio Wireless,
and immediately I can
tell they're incredibly
lightweight but also,
(plastic crinkling)
can you hear that plastic?
- [Ken] Very cheap shrink wrap.
- I don't think these
are real slash legit.
Also, Beats Pure ANC, 22 hours beats that.
- [Ken] That's actually,
why isn't Apple using that?
Beats that? That's a
really good catchphrase.
Oh, I don't like the look of that.
Oh, what, what?
- Okay, so we have our slightly
dirty Beats headphones.
I can tell you immediately
these are not real,
'cause they weigh like half
of what real Beats weigh.
Look at this, you see those little things
they printed on the side?
Oh yeah like real Beats have.
These feel--
- [Ken] Oh, I love the
studio logo on the--
- Studio three!
Dude, these are such bad knock offs.
They're not refurbished.
If I can give anything to Beats by Dre,
it is they make very high
quality feeling head phones,
and sure maybe that requires
them to sneak a little bit
of extra metal for the feel.
I don't care, it still feels nice.
This feels like a toy, I
will say I've worn these for,
I didn't even start playing
music, I just paired them,
and my ears are already
very uncomfortable.
They're not the right size for anything,
it just sits there and
just squishes on your ear
so it's like, it's not like
an on ear, it's not soft,
but it's like an over ear that's small,
so it just sits flat right
on the edges of your ear.
- [Ken] Wait, wait, look
at the window for a second.
Look, there's a light on
the side of the Beats.
(comedic whimpering)
- It's like I'm listening
to the ghost of music,
it's like there's this speaker
in the other room I'm listening to.
It's so harsh.
I'm not gonna lie, those might be,
try those, try those,
those might be the worst
headphones I've ever listened to.
- Okay yeah these feel
cheaper in person, I'll say.
Oh that's--
- Just prepare yourself,
prepare yourself for this.
(soft hip-hop music)
(laughs) That's bad, that's bad.
- Okay if (sighs).
- That's bad!
- It's not--
- Bad!
- Horrible.
- Bad, B-A-D-D.
- [Ken] It's like a slight
step above horrible.
- No, no.
- [Ken] It's like a
centimeter above horrible.
- No.
- [Ken] It could be worse.
- I challenge you,
I shouldn't say this on camera,
but I'm gonna say it anyway,
challenge you to find me
a worse pair of headphones
for next Mystery Tech.
I bet you can't do it.
- [Ken] Oh, I mean I
can, but are you sure?
- No, please don't do that,
that's a terrible idea.
(loud plastic clattering)
That didn't work cause
it came back toward me,
but we're just going to continue.
Look at that, I am
catching everything today.
This is supposedly a
pair, a single Shure SM57
Legendary Instrument Microphone.
Now if you're not a
audio guy like Matt is,
then you'll probably not know that this is
a legitimately very very popular mic.
This is kind of the industry
standard for a lot of people,
and for good reason.
Might not be the most expensive mic,
it might not be the best sounding mic,
but it is a very very
popular mic that is used
in many popular places, so--
- [Ken] That was the most
surface level explanation of that--
- [Matt] Yeah.
- [Ken] That you could've
drawn out of your hat.
- [Ken] This is a microphone,
it records things,
it definitely picks up audio.
- [Matt] Ken's description was
about 1000 times more
descriptive than yours.
- (laughs) The roast is real right now.
So I'm going to plug it in.
- Ow.
- Taco test test SM57.
- That's fake, man.
- Wait, so I can't hear this right now,
so can you please describe to me
what you're hearing with this microphone?
- It's very tinny, it's a more of like
an old-timey radio sound.
- Really?
- Yeah, it's like, it's
not great, it's not bad.
If you needed microphones
and, for you know,
recording your band in
your bedroom or whatever,
for 26 bucks I actually
think I would pick this up,
but it is not a real SM57, so.
- Confirmed fake, next item please.
I just feel like, you know what though,
- [Matt] I can't really
leave until you stop talking.
- I say that, yeah of course, I know.
- I wanna go back to my spot.
- I know, I know you do, so the thing is,
I actually like holding the mic like this,
it feels really good.
I feel like I have a
lot of power in my life,
so I'm just gonna, you
should just stand here
while I do the next item.
This is the TransTalk wireless
translation headphone.
How, uh, awkward are you
that I'm gonna make you stand
right beside me as I do the next item?
- I get to host an episode
of stuff with you, right?
So, if you're gonna make me
do this I'm gonna be like,
"Hello, and welcome to this is--"
- Anyway, I have the mic, so we are going
to go ahead and continue
with the TransTalk.
So here we have a wireless
translation headphone with an app.
I love when I have to download an app
for some weird, random
item that I purchased
for Mystery Tech.
It's great, it's my
favorite thing in fact.
Get it at Google Play.
Item not found!
Great, love it, awesome, sweet.
That was a really fun item wasn't it?
Aren't you so glad that
you're spending your time
watching this wonderful video
all about Wish Mystery Tech?
Boy oh boy, I am so happy
that I'm here right now.
I Just love when things don't work.
- [Ken] You're gonna
break your Z-Flip, my guy.
- It has an iPhone app, the
iPhone app actually shows up,
so it just doesn't work on Android.
How are we going to try this?
Does anyone speak any
other languages here?
- [Ken] I can give you
three sentences in Japanese.
- Okay cool, we're gonna do that.
I'm gonna download this super
sketchballs app on an iPhone.
So you as the phone person
are listening to Japanese.
I as the headset person
am listening to English.
So if you say something
in Japanese to the phone,
you tap the button.
I should then hear it in
English on the headset.
- Okay.
- This is like a dumb version
of Google translate, let's go.
- It actually looks like a version
of Google translate as well.
- Okay.
- All right.
- Konichiwa.
- Wait--
- [Phone] Hello.
- Oh, it did it.
- Wait, here do it the other way.
- Wait what?
Wait no, no that's right.
- But why are you hearing it on the phone?
I'm not hearing it on the headset.
- Well, it is working, I'll say that much.
- Wait, let me try this.
Wait it's text.
What's the point of the headset?
It's just the app!
- [Matt] I think it's
the other way around.
- Hold on, wait.
- [Matt] So, you speak
English into the headset--
- I think he's right.
- [Matt] And then you show it--
- What's the point of the headset?
This is just a Bluetooth headset.
- [Matt] Yeah.
- It's an app.
- Yeah.
- Like Google translate.
- Yeah.
- So what's the point of this?
- There is no point.
- I am so offended by this Mystery Tech.
I have not been this legitimately upset.
Normally I can blame Ken, it's fine,
but I have nothing to blame
here besides myself and Wish.
I'm gonna blame you anyway.
Ken, how dare you let
me order these items?
(speaking Japanese)
- [Ken] It's lighter than I thought.
- (laughs) You can just hand it to me too.
Okay, so this is the stupid baby phone.
Here we go, this is, no
wait, nope, sorry hang on.
- [Matt] Did someone say, "This is"?
- (laughs) Matt, are you gonna
let me do this right now?
- [Matt] Yeah.
Do I really have to do this?
- [Matt] Yep.
- If you would like to know
more about tiny phones,
we did a video on this all
about the smallest phones,
so feel free to click
on the card or the link
in the description.
- [Matt] Why did you do
it like an old telephone?
- I was trying to be like Gladys (laughs).
This is the tiny doll phone that we got.
As you can see, it is incredibly detailed,
so much so that Ken can't keep in focus.
You can see if you look very very closely,
that it is an old Samsung wallpaper,
like a Note 4 or something.
- [Matt] You spent a dollar on that.
- I got a dollar worth
of enjoyment out of that.
I can give it to my doll or my, um--
- [Ken] What is your doll,
is that you call Karen?
- [Matt] Hit F in the chat, boys.
- Okay, that was a poor shot.
What is this, there's
labels on both sides.
Just, you know what, we're going
to censor the entire frame,
so the entire frame is just
gonna go black as I unbox this.
Instead, this is now going
to be an ASMR unboxing.
(plastic crinkling)
Now we're going to take a look
at this super high resolution
large aperture lens, and hopefully
this is calming you down,
so that you will continue
to watch the video,
and now we are going to open
up our little leather bag.
So nice, so kind, I'm very
excited to give this a try.
Oh, so so cute.
So now we have an E-mount, so this can go
on your little Sony cameras,
that's very exciting.
- [Matt] You're not whispering anymore,
now you're just going really high-pitched.
You can talk normal.
- Okay I can talk normal, fine.
This is the VELEDGE APSC F1.632 mili lens.
I mean Ken, you know we can
put this on that camera, right?
- [Ken] No, no, no, no, no,
we have an A7 right there.
- All right, just give me the A7.
- [Ken] No, no.
- I demand to be the voice of reason.
- So currently what Ken is
doing, if you cut to that angle,
is he is currently
replacing the normal lens
on our A camera.
- [Matt] No, what are you, oh my god,
why did you do that while
it's still recording?
- I don't know but it's fine.
Now, we are currently
using the brand new lens.
I don't know if this is focused.
- [Matt] It's not in focus.
- It looks really,
actually it's not that different.
- [Matt] I'll be honest, it's not.
- So this is where Austin finds out
that we bought all of
these lenses to flex.
- So this is what it looks
like when we are recording
with our $90 lens, so, are you trying,
That's, that's, you're
showing the labels again.
Okay, so this is Mystery
Tech now where we huddle
around this tiny lens, so--
- [Matt] It's not in focus!
- This is our next item for Mystery Tech
that Ken just gave me.
It's a solar panel that we bought on Wish.
so why don't we go outside
and see if our $61 solar
panel actually works.
Okay, so we are now recording
with our cheap lens,
and we have our Wish solar panel,
which I will say actually looks to be
reasonably large.
Reasonably sized?
Reasonably reasonable.
It's a pretty big solar panel.
Well, we're charging.
- Yay.
- Oh, device charging slow,
oh no, it was charging slowly
for a second and now it's
charging at full speed.
Oh wait, now it's back to slowly.
- I mean, I am moving this so like--
- Yeah, can you get max sun,
'cause it is a little
cloudy out right now.
- Well we are like yeah if we--
- Yeah.
- If we step over here--
- Yeah yeah. There we go.
- Max sun.
- Max sun?
Still saying charging slowly, that's fine.
Anyway, hopefully you enjoyed
this episode of Mystery Tech.
It's a little bit of a weird
one, but you know what,
every episode of Mystery Tech is weird,
because we don't know
what the hell we're doing.
See you next time.
A little to the left.
- Which one, which left?
- Your left.
- Your left, okay.
- We have the same left most of the time.
- No we don't.
- Sometimes.
- I'm turned around, I'm
turned around right now.
- (laughs) Aren't we all?
