2017-12-17
today's video is sponsored by oculus rift you guys johnathan here the holidays are here and today we were looking at three awesome tech gifts all under 500 bucks and kicking off that list is the oculus rift so if you've been looking a jump in the VR world like my boy Ralphie it is more affordable than ever and speaking of that the oculus rift is currently on sale for 379 not sure how long it's gonna last but if you're interested as Cooper went up I will drop a link down below now inside the box there is so much stuff packed inside everything you could possibly need apart from the PC itself from an xbox controller to an oculus remote down to the double freaking a batteries now it's cool with this is you can either play sitting down or standing up myself I prefer the freedom of standing but the choice is totally up to you now the Alekos headset itself is kind of badass given 2160 by 1200 resolution so that crazy VR view your scene is super sharp super crisp and you've a built in headset which kind of puts the cherry on top of that super immersive experience now what I love about this is the flexibility so if you're worried about your room size or if you have enough space you can take those sensors and move them so they can perfectly complement your setup now if you just throw that guy apart for those kids as you can see those gaming controllers are not only a ton of fun they are really responsive and kind of just take that gaming experience to the next level you will of course need a Shoeless you will of course need an oculus compatible PC which I'm sure my buddy Austin Evans has built about 500 of those so I'll drop a couple links to those down below and again remember this is currently on sale for 379 so if you want to scoop one up make sure you jump on it fast so next up keeping that gaming theme going the Nintendo switch was hands-down one of the hottest pieces of tech of 2017 and wouldn't make an amazing gift now what I love about the switch is the flexibility being able to play either handheld or docking it to a TV honestly most the time you're gonna find yourself playing handheld but having that option is a beautiful thing now back from the switch initially came out a potential reason not to buy one was a lack of games for another time has passed that is completely not the case you of course have Game of the Year legend Zelda brought to the wild Mario Kart 8 deluxe splatoon - and of course Super Mario Odyssey which is amazing so it's kind of a little awesome bonus is those joy Kahn's will also double as a second controller just in case you want to play with a friend speaking of joy Kahn's actually work really well and make for a surprisingly awesome kick back game and experience but if you need something little more tradition or a little more serious can also scoop a pro controller and I will link some of the best down below now couple months ago these were nearly impossible to find they were sold out everywhere but since then stock has slowly improved I think Amazon should have them but if you want to find one locally I've had like a Best Buy and also target now last up this camera almost doesn't seem real for the price T Panasonic FCAT is currently on sale for 350 bucks and will shoot 4k video up to 30 frames per second so with this you have an 18 point 1 megapixel sensor any ridiculous 22 1200 millimeter zoom now granted yes that is optical zoom but the fact that you have that at your disposal for that price is crazy so infinitely to pick up a camera to shoot 4k video whether it's for YouTube or just to shoot for fun this is a fantastic starting point really the we got a look at this camera is kind of the all-in-one everything camera which is a great starting point but the one potential downside is you're not gonna be able to upgrade the lens later but really for that price point it shouldn't really be an issue the touch interface is great you have built-in Wi-Fi and it's gonna be a pretty solid stills camera and again yes smartphones they do a great job with photos and video these days but the idea here is that it's gonna get you into that photo and video world it'll get you familiar with the controls the interface and more importantly put you in that different frame of mind when shooting video aside from that thank you guys very much for watching and hopefully enjoyed the video if you did and you are feeling like being honest to make sure you go hisin Tosh on that like button again everything featured this video is linked down below this is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later
