hey guys this is Austin and today I'm back with another tech under video this time taking a look at tech under $60 over the catches as always I have no idea what I'm looking at thanks to good old savage Kenny the clips k6i reference headphones oh wait what is this a lightning audio amp a $60 amp coach typically makes pretty good any air monitors that shouldn't be a huge surprise you're paying $60 for a headphone amp for such as like the iPhone 7 so give these a try first I'm going to use the standard lightning adapter that comes with the iPhone 7 and see how these headphones sounds usually I'm actually not a big fan of these any air style of headphones typically it's actually kind of hard to get a comfortable fit for me but let's give these guys a try they're good they sound really good for the most part the only thing is they're just a little bit of a lack of bass and of course that's a subjective thing I think some people prefer something that's a little bit more of a clearer sound with less bass but for me I like if there's just a little bit more punch to the sounds but of course the headphones are not alone in a vacuum now I get to try this $60 lightning adapter so it looks pretty much similar to the one that comes with the iPhone although you can see there's definitely a lot more going on here with having not only an amp but also dedicate DAC this this might be interesting I don't know I'm not so sold that's going to be that great that's not cool so you can actually use this little keychain thing there might be a little bit of a difference I feel it might be just a bit more separation but I don't know about this one I don't know so essentially the app will actually allow you to get a little more amplification and it does sound better it's mostly just a little bit louder but with that extra volume I can hear a little more clarity so listen to the same headphones hooked up to the LGV 30 which has an amazing quad DAC inside it's actually a fairly similar sound I feel like this adapter will kind of punch up the music just a little bit which personally I actually kind of like what is it worth 60 bucks ah I'm not so sure pebble time wait this is $60 so if you guys are not familiar pebble actually went out of business which makes it a little weird that they're still selling them so for me I actually really do enjoy using a SmartWatch mostly for things like notifications which keeps me from keeping my phone out of my pocket all the time but let's see how this pebble time stack so I will say even though yes this is like $50 the hardware still feels kind of cheap like I would not want to rock this rubber band every day once you sit up the pebble time you'll see it's actually a pretty much functioning SmartWatch so not only can we go and control our music here so we can start playing it from the phone in my pocket but you can also go through get your notifications alarms one of the main reasons to use a pebble though is the battery life so while most smartwatches measure it in hours this guy can last days on a single charge and oh yes it's not going to be the most functional thing and going forward who knows how well this is actually going to be supported but for 50 bucks not bad alright what is our fourth products a mysterious cardboard box oh okay a USB pet rock important open box carefully do not remove rock before reading instructions literally a rock with a hole cut into it and a USB cable Ken how much did this cost you're laughing too much how much does this cost $40 the hole in it there's a USB cable you know just when you think that Ken's doing a great job he's busting out these cool tech items left and right and then you get a USB pet rock all right let's just plug this thing in get it over with I'm like half expecting this to be full of malware or something will happen when we plug our pit rock in absolutely nothing absolutely nothing happens at least we can make sure that our USB pet rock feels like he's part of the 21st century and connected to all the other devices in our lives uh yeah what is this a fifty millimeter 1.8 lens Oh Oh actually something that's not terrible after the rock I was expecting garbage town $50 all right Wow this is uh this is identical looking to the canon fifty one point eight so if you guys have ever really gotten into dslr's you'll know that usually the first lens you get is a 50ml lens now that does it give you a kind of interesting look but it's also really cheap however 50 bucks is uh that's pretty cheap this is like laughably lightweight but if we pop it on our camera here see what we've got that noise okay okay let's let's do this let's do this it's actually not that bad looking see here's take a picture of our super cool pet rock dude this is actually pretty decent so now they can version the one that they're knocking off here is usually around a hundred dollars or so so to get what looks to be pretty similar for fifty bucks is not bad at all what you're looking at right now is actually a camera using a much more expensive 50 millimeter lens so if we put the $50 option on this is what things look like now I can't really tell from all the way over here but it probably isn't that far off Ken what do you think pretty good all right so that mean we get to save you a bunch of money on lenses now we've officially got a pet rock in this video and now we've downgrade our camera equipment what else could you ask for before we get to the final product of the video you guys may remember that a few weeks ago we did a video on the lg ultra white festival who are awesome enough to sponsor this video after going through all the applicants the top three finalists are Zachary from hammers and circuits Taylor Reed and last but not least physics Phil the finalists are going to join Linus and I at his studio in Vancouver where they're going to get to build their ultimate dream setup stay tuned because Linus and I are going to be doing videos from the event but you guys actually still have a chance to win a monitor the first Quest is to fill in the blanks guessing the LG ultra wide key features and the second one is simply to guess who is the final winner so be sure to check out those links in the description and now let us see what is the final item of the video the smartphone control paper airplane conversion kits convert your paper airplane into a smartphone controlled flying machine I think this would be pretty cool I actually used to really enjoy building paper airplanes when I was a kid although I haven't done it in like a while this is a good idea this is pretty legit how how much was this 35 look at this Ken coming in with the budget options so once you download the app I can immediately see that this was designed by nerds now that do we have these signal strengths but we have fuel we have the actual control which I'm actually not going to do because we need to build our paper airplane I know my paper airplanes I can make my own I said there with way more confidence than I really should oh this is really bad this is actually not a great paper airplane this is like not even close to being even okay the apps a little bit aggressive let's try to go up all right full power oh alright okay okay so what did we learn today we learned that when the paper airplane comes with specific instructions on how to build the plane you should probably listen to these so what do you guys think about Kent's picks for this video let us know in the comments below and as always the links to all the stuff will be in the description of the video anyway guys thank you so much for watching and I will catch you in the next one
