- Hey guys, Jonathan here.
If you're not following my Instagram,
I just dropped an exclusive IGTV video
on early Prime Day deals.
Make sure you guys check out the link below.
So kicking off the list is the MagicBridge
from Twelve South.
They've got my crazy color changing setup.
This alongside the Mac Mini was the heart of the setup.
So what this does is take an Apple Magic Keyboard
and Magic Trackpad 2 and then sandwiches it together
in one convenient package.
So you can see using a keyboard with a trackpad separately
on a couch isn't the greatest idea,
but with this, it completely changes the game.
This will also definitely work great
in a desktop environment as well,
and what's nice about this is the flexibility.
You can actually change which side of the trackpad you want,
left or right.
For me, since I like to use a mouse
and definitely check out the link below
to see which mouse I am sadly using right now,
I like to have a trackpad on the left,
so for me, this is my preferred configuration.
So whether you're looking to spice up your desk
or you're looking to do something similar
like the Mac Mini in the home theater setup,
this thing works as advertised.
Not only is it under 50 bucks,
right now it is currently under 40.
Next up from there is a pair of Iron Man headphones
from iHome, and don't judge me, I get it.
These are totally targeted to kids,
but there's a part of me that has a soft spot
for Tony Stark.
There is also a Captain America version as well,
but I'm definitely Team Iron Man.
Let me know what you prefer with a comment down below,
but if you're Team Cap, we can't be friends.
So pretty much everything about these headphones
for the price, the sound quality, the build quality,
and they got Arc Reactors built right in
that not only light up but they react to the music.
♪ Tell me will you love me tomorrow ♪
♪ I can love you tonight ♪
- Now for some people that may be too much,
it might be too extreme.
I can definitely see that being a little annoying at times,
especially if those lights are just going off everywhere
in the dark, but I like the fact
that you have options to control the lighting.
So on top of reacting to music,
you can set it to pulse,
which is definitely less in your face,
or you can turn it off altogether.
As far as sound quality goes,
they're definitely not audiophile,
so Snazzy Q might like these.
But again, for the price, they sound really good.
The ear cups themselves are comfortable,
they're large, so if you've got big ass ears like me,
they will cover them up.
There's a ton of low end,
and I think that is probably the major characteristic
out of these headphones,
so if you like bass, you're gonna like these.
Beyond that, little nice touches with these headphones
are the media controls.
You have next song, previous song, pause,
volume up, volume down, and they also come
with a 3.5 millimeter audio cable
just in case the battery dies.
Overall, even though these are targeted to kids,
they don't feel like a toy,
or they don't sound like kids' headphones.
Not sure why I've listened to so many kids' headphones,
but you get the point.
Whether you're a kid, whether you're a kid at heart,
or you just love Iron Man or Marvel,
I would definitely scoop these up.
- What's going on, guys?
It's Karl here.
And one of the best items that I actually use under 50 bucks
is well under that.
It should be worth more
considering how much I use it,
and it's one of the best pieces of tech in my arsenal.
If you guys have seen my channel,
you know that I love this mini Manfrotto tripod.
It is essentially the most versatile piece
of tech that I have.
It comes with me wherever I go.
You can use it for multiple things,
as long as you have a quarter inch connector on the bottom.
You can use it as a selfie stick for vlogging,
which I do all the time.
It has a nice little button that you can press
to articulate the head.
Place it down, and now you've got a fully functional tripod.
I can use it as a monitor stand
for one of my additional screens.
It essentially just does every single thing in the studio.
It is a powerhouse and well under 50 bucks
and definitely one of my top recommendations
to anyone out there looking to start
their very own YouTube channel.
- Back to you guys.
- Next up from there is the Solight Solarpuff portable LED.
Kinda sounds like cereal.
On top of being solar powered,
what I love about this is the fact
that it's got this origami design
where it smashes down into a super compact form factor.
So you can throw this in your bag
and have light at your disposal.
From there, simply expand it,
give it a little,
and there you have a light.
There's a solar panel towards the top,
there's an on-off button so you press once
for the first layer of brightness.
There's an additional layer of brightness.
And finally, an SOS mode so you can see this being
extremely useful.
On top of that, I can see this being really useful
for those that shoot video.
It's a warm light, so it's not gonna be your main source,
but in the background as a practical
or as a hair light, it's gonna work fantastic.
It has this handy little Velcro strap right here
which is great for holding it here
or you could hang these.
So imagine throwing a ton of these everywhere,
would look pretty mesmerizing.
Now beyond being extremely useful and practical,
there's some really cool things about this light.
For starters, it's actually made out of recycled PET,
AKA polyethylene terephthalate,
try saying that 10 times fast.
- Polyethylene tere-tha-talatate.
Polyethylion, nope I can't say it 10 times, I give up.
- That essentially is one of the biggest contributors
to pollution on this planet,
so the fact that that's helping that is awesome
and for every one of these that you buy,
a small donation is gonna help bring light around the world
to places that need it.
Next up from there is this little guy
sitting right on top of my laptop, the Samsung Go Mic,
which is an awesome portable little USB microphone.
I will mention that everything you're hearing right now
is being recorded through the Samsung Go Mic,
so definitely drop a comment down below
on how you think it sounds.
Just to give you an idea of how compact,
here it is sitting in the palm of my hand.
It makes it a great traveling microphone,
but for the price, it's also a great option
if you're just starting out.
Beyond placing it on top of your laptop,
you can also throw this on a mic stand
so it's super flexible.
I like the fact that you have three options,
Cardioid and negative 10 DB Cardioid
and Omnidirectional as well.
In this case, since it's just me,
I want it to be in Cardioid mode.
That's just gonna pick up what's directly in front of it.
But say you were doing a podcast
where you had someone over here on the other side,
Omnidirectional would work best.
It's gonna work great not only for voiceovers,
for podcasts, for gaming.
If you're a musician, it's gonna be great
for acoustic guitar as well.
From what I can tell, I think the sound quality
sounds fantastic,
so when you combine that with
the portability and the form factor,
this is a fantastic all-around microphone for the price.
Aside from that, thank you guys very much for watching.
Hopefully, you enjoyed the video.
If you did and you are feeling like being awesome,
make sure you guys smash that Like button.
Huge shout-out to Mr. Karl Conrad for collabing.
Definitely check his channel out.
I will link him along with
everyone featured in this video down below.
This is Jonathan, and I will catch you guys later.
So kicking off the list is a pair
of broken Iron Man headphones.
Damn, he got Thanos-ed.
