-[Austin] Ken Bolido.
- Yeah.
- [Commentator] Happy birthday my friend.
- Can I open my eyes?
- [Commentator] You can open your eyes.
(squeaking)
(laughing)
- [Ken] Here, I'll do you a solid.
- [Ken] Wait dude.
Oh no.
Great, great, great.
I already hate it. Oh, it's balloons!
Oh, it's balloons!
Oh, I thought it was something else.
- [Man Throwing Box] I'm not used to throwing items.
This is very strange.
I'm gonna throw them from over here.
- What is this?
DEMA!
Wait... more?
Wait stop burning all your-
Wait are you throwing literally everything to me right now?
Wait, what?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on one at a time, dude.
Have you ever seen Mystery Tech before?
Let's see. What do we got here?
These look like gloves,
but I'm going to just guess that they are not ordinary
gloves.
(upbeat background music)
Okay.
What the...
(laugh)
These are shiny!
Wait, wait, knowing, knowing you guys,
cause we did this once before.
Do they light up?
Are they supposed to light up?
- [Man Behind Camera] They are.
- You would think that it would be
intuitive enough to have a power button
somewhere apparently obvious.
That. The button is where your inner ankle would be.
Inner ankle is it?
Your-
- [Man Behind Camera] Yeah.
- Yeah.
Oh it turned on! It's red.
Wait, can I change the color?
Red, red.
If you just have red and a flashing red.
That's uh, that's handy. So continuing the trend.
We have these shining glasses.
- [Man Behind Camera] Yeah.
It's looking awfully dangerous right there.
- These look very awful.
I'm in the future ladies and gentlemen.
Wow. Why is the nose bridge completely part plastic?
♪ Around the world ♪
- [Man Behind Camera] Yeah I'm not really good at
being on page... or tone or key.
Whatever the music-
- Or talking. All right.
What is this?
What can this be? It's a hooded thing.
Oh my God. It's Kiryu Coco.
- Who?
(laughing)
So what's your,
what's your basically making me do is wear a V tuber thing
over my other V tuber thing.
- [Man Behind Camera] Uh, yes.
- [Ken] This is like,
if someone told me what people wear to rave and I just,
(laughing)
but I was blind and I just bought everything.
That's what this is.
- [Man Behind Camera] Oh, look at that.
Look at that.
- [Ken] I look like every one of ASUS' products,
Republic of gamers.
- [Man Behind Camera] Well! I'd like to formally apologize
to ASUS for Ken's comments.
I do not condone them in any way whatsoever.
- Hi, my name is Ken Strix Bolito. How's it going?
God, what am I doing?
- [Man Behind Camera] So, Ken, I think it's actually
time for mystery tech,
now that you have your wardrobe.
- Wait that wasn't mystery tech?
- [Man Behind Camera] No, that was just uh, your wardrobe.
- I'll keep the bow- Oh wait no I can't-
Ah!
Austin actually bought tech for mystery tech.
- [Austin] Yeah I know, pretty novel concept huh.
- It is a novel concept. I wish I learned it.
Okay. So Austin got me an, A-1 headphone adapter,
which is a USBC deck.
Literally know nothing about this-
- [Austin] So let me tell you,
it is very highly reviewed on Amazon.
It's like the best step up from like the headphone adapter
that comes in the box for you.
- Ah!
The NBRZX 1-10 Of course!
Powerful high quality sound.
Sure. Let me take a look at this deck first.
That's a really excessive box for what is
a normal size looking dongle. It passed all of its reports.
Pass, pass, pass, pass, pass.
No fails.
Must be good.
I mean, I went to art school, so I didn't really matter.
You went to art school too.
And that was my professor fun fact.
- [Austin] And look where you both ended up.
- Well, I was going to say like,
I'm upper management for Matt.
So look at, look at where we-
(yelling)
sometimes, sometimes your professors just
end up being your subordinates.
Sometimes, sometimes life just works out like that.
I don't know.
(crinkling)
- [Ken] As expected of these plastic Sony cans,
they feel very lightweight. They feel very plastic-y.
But honestly,
I feel like that's what some people want because you're
going to be using this when you're running,
you're going to be using this on the train.
Sometimes not everyone wants to wear expensive headphones
out for whatever reason that might be,
but these should actually sound pretty decent.
I believe I've used a version of these before.
Like these have been around for quite a while.
- [Austin] I can definitely confirm.
I used to use a pair of these headphones.
These are a classic.
- [Ken] The volume is pretty loud. Even at around like 80%.
I probably wouldn't Jack it up higher than that.
So there's a lot of headroom with this DAC,
for these headphones, which is really nice to see.
It sounds fantastic.
What I really like about these Sony headphones,
especially for a lot of Sony headphones in this price range
is the base response. So it's not incredibly Boom-y,
but there is a lot of basic detail there,
but it doesn't compromise the mids and highs
as much as I thought it would like
the treble actually sounds pretty good.
The vocals come out really well on this.
This is a very well rounded pair for,
you said less than 20 bucks, right?
- [Austin] The deck was $15
and those headphones are only $9.99.
- Are you serious? These headphones are 10 bucks?
- [Austin] Yup.
- Holy crap.
- [Austin] So $25 for the pair of those.
- This is a really good set. Holy crap.
- [Austin] So Kent are you trying to say
that when I incorporate tech and mystery tech,
I do a good job?
- I would hope so.
The expectation is that you know about this stuff, not me.
You almost did the Z-flip.
- [Austin] Good catch.
- Now, if you're wondering how Austin is paying for all this
mystery tech stuff,
it is thanks to the sponsor of today's video mint, mobile,
who has been working to slash phone bills down to
$15 a month since 2016,
by cutting out the in store retail experience,
putting it all online and passing on the savings to you.
I think that was a pretty good sales pitch.
I try my best.
Try my best.
You might've heard of mint mobile from a
thing that happened last year,
but they're days away now from launching a brand new plan
that is unlimited talk, text and data for $30 a month.
30 bucks, Austin.
30 bucks, which is less than half,
of what the big carriers charge.
And on top of that, you get the same reliability.
With that, you get 35 gigs of high speed data,
which you can access on 4G or 5G depending on
which one's stronger.
And in addition, if you have other devices,
you have five gigs of mobile hotspot included.
I've really been liking the speed and reliability of
mint mobile. So if that's got you curious,
definitely go check out the link in the description.
Or go to mintmobile.com/austin
and huge thanks to them for sponsoring mystery tech.
What is in here? Oh, I already know.
I already know. I see it peeking.
This is the Sony 1000 X Mark four.
Active noise canceling headphones.
- [Austin] The question is,
do they sound better than the $10 pair of headphones?
- Probably.
- [Austin] I'm gonna think so.
- So I will say,
probably something I shouldn't say about my
present from Austin Evans and company,
but I think I'll actually like the older ones more.
- [Austin] What?!
- This is saying them before even trying them.
But,
let me explain.
One of the main reasons why
I think I would like the thousand X Mark threes more,
is just because of compatibility.
So on the Bluetooth side,
this does have LDAC compatibility,
which is a Bluetooth Code that's
supported on Android and a bunch of Sony products,
but the Mark threes were compatible with Aptx,
which is very important if you want to use it on a PC,
because otherwise you're kind of stuck with
very low end codex.
And I tend to use my Bluetooth headphones on my PC.
So these probably won't work though.
I'll have to try them to make sure though.
I don't think I have a PC here to try them,
but um, we'll see.
- [Austin] Try them on your Z-flip.
- I will try them on my Z-flip because
at the very least that has LDAC compatibility.
Oh wow.
Already the active noise cancellation is heavy on these.
Wow. I can barely hear my own voice.
Holy crap.
The Sony ANC headphones. Always really bass-y,
I love it.
Ooh. It's just the noise cancellation is so aggressive.
Again. I can't hear myself talk, which is a very-
I don't even know what to think about that actually.
It's very weird.
Play a song that- play a song that you like,
just type something in.
Test, test, test, test, test.
Austin, Austin, Austin, Austin.
Yeah. It's low.
It's really low.
- Like you can barely hear
what people are saying around you.
You can almost kind of tell they're talking
but you really can't hear them. It's very oppressive.
It's like yeah you really- your head's like in a vacuum.
- It's enough to zone yourself in.
You can still hear a little bit around you,
but that is the most aggressive that
I've heard any wireless headphones, for noise cancellation.
It's crazy.
Wow. Okay.
What is this?
All right. So this is the robotosaur.
He looks very derpy.
(laughing)
It's okay. He looks like he has brain damaged already.
I don't think that would have added or detracted anything.
There we go.
Oh.
That looks stupid.
He looks really dumb.
[Person Behind Camera] Why are his arms so long?
(roaring)
(laughing)
- Do you want to do something about this?
Go, come on, yeah, go.
Uh-huh uh-huh. That way, that way, that way.
(crash)
Not even mad, not even mad.
God. Why?
Why?
All right, well.
Back in the pen.
All right. What did Austin Evans get me.
What the hell is this?
The Bob Ross toaster.
I like how Mystery Tech has just become both
toy dinosaurs and toasters.
- [Austin] Happy little trees Ken, happy little trees.
- Oh, Wes is here with the fire extinguisher.
That's all right.
Oh, Austin just threw some bread.
It's okay.
Whew very (censor) at holding bread.
When your bread doesn't fit in the toaster.
- [Austin] I mean, that is Artesano bread.
Like it's high quality bread.
- [Ken] It's not that high quality.
It's good. This is actually the brand that I buy.
- [Austin] Excuse me. Artesano. Get that bread.
- It's art-e-sano. Not ar-tees-ano, you dumb asses.
It's art-e-sano.
All right, let's get that bread.
(laughing)
Okay.
So my main problem with this toaster is that,
you know when toast is done,
and it's just supposed to (clicks tongue) right?
The thing that scares Austin every morning? Yeah.
It didn't do that.
Which means I'm going to have to either hand fix this,
which I'm not going to do. Cause I like my fingers.
- By the way,
in this drawer where we hide all of our important things to
do videos like screwdrivers,
and I fix the kits and whatnot.
We also have our
(laughing)
Naruto kunai's.
- [Austin] I mean.
(laughing)
- We're good. My legs are intact,
I didn't stab myself, This one is uh-
- [Man Behind Camera] Oh, Ken!
- [Austin] Those aren't chopsticks!
Oh.
- There you go. Bob Ross ladies and gentlemen.
Bob Ross.
- [Man Behind Camera] Can we try and do this to
one more piece of bread?
- Why?
- [Austin] A higher temperature.
- [Man Behind Camera] Yes, please. Not zero.
- IT did not go down any more.
This is the (censor) toaster I've ever seen.
See some smoke.
- It is actually- I think it will actually
combust and light on fire. It has a lot of smoke.
- [Austin] It does look a little suspicious.
Cause that doesn't look like the nice
like steam that looks like actual fire.
- [Ken] No, it's it's fine.
I'm monitoring it. If it catches on fire, I'll let you know.
Okay. Actually that is burning the bread.
- [Man Behind Camera] Oh, pumped out.
- Perfect timing.
(laughing)
Look at that! It actually looks like Bob Ross.
Ladies and gentlemen here,
we have you versus the one she tells you not to worry about.
- [Man Behind Camera] Is anyone worried about him though?
- Something's coming up behind me. Isn't it?
- [Man Behind Camera] Happy Birthday Ken.
- Well enjoy cleaning this up, Matt.
Wait, there's another thing?
What is even up there on the ceiling?
There's a bucket, Oh, there's more bucket stuff.
Oh, I see.
You just have to keep doing it and undoing it
until more fall down. Okay.
That's a lot.
I know this is the end of mystery tech because this ruins
all of our continuity in the edit.
So thank you very much for watching
this episode of Mystery Tech.
I hope you enjoyed,
If you liked me being on Mystery Tech instead of Austin,
please let me know in the comments below,
otherwise check out our secondary channel.
This is where Matt...
does something unless Austin's on camera?
Because he's usually on camera more than Matt nowadays,
which is kind of sad.
Give Matt all the love and support he deserves it.
And otherwise, thanks for watching.
He does.
