Hey guys, what's going on? It's Karl here
back with another episode.
And if you've been tuning in for the last couple days
you know that it's day three of this awesome, awesome
tech gift guide giveaway combo...
I think I've thrown out words "extraordinaire"--
I'm just trying to think of a couple words for a party or a festival
but if you haven't been tuned in, we are looking at different tech items in varying price ranges.
Today is under fifty dollars that are perfect gifts for the upcoming holidays.
December 25th
And of course the nice little kicker. You could win a random item from today,
a random item from yesterday,
a random item from the day before that, from tomorrow, the day after.
Up to seven days of goodness.
Me saying thanks for putting up with... my face for this entire year.
Let's make 2017 a smasher.
Fire. Unreal. Awesome.
More adjectives that I seem to be struggling with
But let us get to our first item. And just to give you a heads up
we have a ton of items to cover today. So i'm gonna go a bit quicker.
We'll try to keep things around five to six minutes.
Let's go.
First time making an appearance on any sort of Best Tech episode,
this is actually a VR headset from Merge. Under fifty bucks of course.
And this is just one where you slip your phone right through that little crack right there
and you can watch any VR-enabled content.
It's got this dope purple color so it will definitely stand out.
Nice and soft.
And this headband here: very adjustable.
Obviously not as cheap as something like Google Cardboard, but it gets the job done.
Dope [unintelligible]. Foam, soft.
I think this could be the perfect gift for anyone looking to get their first VR headset.
Boom! And next up, a bluetooth speaker.
And the name of this is actually the Sony Bass.
And as the name implies, it's got a solid kick of bass.
It is actually waterproof, so perfect for bringing to the beach.
Wherever you might get wet, this thing will survive.
And on the box, it actually said that this color was red.
To me, this looks orange.
Someone... forgive me if I'm wrong.
This thing could fit in my set-up totally, but
maybe I'm going slightly colorblind.
If you're looking for a bluetooth speaker that not only sounds like fire, looks like fire--
Sony Bass. I think that's what it's called.
All these items will be dropped down below, of course.
Keeping on the sound game, if you're looking for a pair of headphones
that are in fact USB-C
So if you've got the new Pixel
These Zinsoko headphones might be your top choice.
They've got a nice cable that doesn't get tangled.
They sound really good. Way better than any of the stock headphones
that you get in the box.
And for under fifty bucks, these might be a solid option.
These sound pretty decent. They look even better,
and I'm surprised the build quality is really good.
And that looks like a bit of earwax on the end so maybe these won't be up for a giveaway.
Unless you wanna win a pair of headphones that have been in my ears.
Whatever floats your boat.
Next up, we've got a piece of home tech,
and I swear I am covering every single tech spectrum.
This is the TP Link Smart Plug.
Essentially a piece of home tech you naturally plug this right into any outlet.
And now you can control all the rest of your smart tech around your house.
You have to download a corresponding app--both on iPhone or Android.
And say if you have smart light bulbs-- what other examples we have?
A humidifier and Christmas tree. Perfect for the holidays.
So if you actually have smart light bulbs that wrap around your tree
control it with this guy plus that paired app
and you won't be wasting extra energy.
Saving you guys money. Again, it's what I do.
This next little guy is way under fifty bucks
but if you actually buy the pack of three, i think this one's around 35, 40 dollars.
This is the Track R Bravo.
Essentially connect these guys to any piece of not only tech
but anything you might have that floats around the house.
The key example is your set of keys--no pun intended.
Once you've got this hooked on or attached to whatever you seem to lose
just check on the app where this guy is located.
You would be surprised how many times I've lost my car keys
and even my luggage. When I'm traveling these have been a lifesaver.
Especially when you're rushing for time.
GoPro accessory now.
For all of you action junkies out there that just grabbed the new GoPro HERO5,
if you're looking for a selfie stick GoPro pole, look no further.
This one is from Sandmarc.
It is built like a tank.
You buy this once. It's under fifty bucks. You will never buy another extendable pole.
This thing is a boss.
And it's made like a boss, too.
Boss times two life.
This guy extends up to fifty inches.
That is pretty long.
Completely made out of aluminum.
On the end, we do have a nice rubber grip.
And of course, this handy little thing in case you're doing action sports
like snowboarding. You let go of the handle
and it's still connected.
And you don't lose your expensive GoPro on the other end.
Check this guy out.
The very last item on today's list--number seven--wouldn't be complete
without a power bank
This one is a 20,000 milliampere hour power bank by Solove.
It is in this beautiful matte aluminum finish.
And this would actually go perfect...
I don't have my MacBook Pro here, but this almost looks like a bit of space gray.
This would be the perfect match. It looks beautiful
And it also comes with this very nice looking felt sleeve.
And on the back, it's got this solid, little pocket
which I usually keep my passport in.
So obviously you know I travel around with this guy.
Highly recommended again. Just like all of these items.
They're all really solid.
Okay, I'm trying to wrap up today's episode nice and quick.
