alright guys so it's the weekend the net Richmond Center and actually was just playing some badminton so hence the yonex shirt and I met up with the cameraman so that I could get some stuff from him and we figured what they maybe we'll do a Saturday unboxing so this is the Native Union Moshi Moshi mm oh three I the curve it's is a wireless Bluetooth telephone for iPhone it is designed by David Turpin I have no idea who that is so what I want you guys to do is leave a comment if you know who David Turpin is and tell me something about it because I know nothing all right let's look at what Native Union has to say about the mm oh three eye it includes a handset weighted telephone base with the universal dock to charge your phone so it is a charger and it is a dock it is improved opening it is not improved call comfort but it improves call comfort it allows access to phone functions while you're making calls that's good okay the Apple universal dock charges your iPhone while in operation fitted with advanced Bluetooth 2.1 plus CDR chip to allow multi point twin pairing connects to two Bluetooth devices at the same time that's kind of cool you got a couple different cell phones in the house then you can actually connect to both of them I guess at the same time meet noise reduction system Auto pick up and hang up Auto connect and reconnect super high gloss finish and a high quality speaker and microphone so what exactly is this thing is what you might be asking yourself and I about boat to answer what that is it is a bluetooth handset for your phone made for iPhone but the only thing about it that's really made for iPhone is the the dock for the charger I mean if you don't want to use the charger it's just a Bluetooth it's just a bluetooth handset so it's you know nothing really iPhone specific about it in that respect so here I'm gonna hand the blocks to cameraman he's gonna hand it to my wife who's car I am sitting on right now in order to bring you this weekend unboxing okay here we go so it's got one of those universal charger guys where all you do is you take the appropriate tip in this case yeah we got all the different international ones oh please tell me we have a North America one yeah there it is okay so you got the North America one right there you throw that on all of a sudden you are ready to go you've got a couple of adapters for different generations of iPhones to make sure that they all fit in the charger just fine and last but not least there is a USB cable presumably for to power the charger as well as to get presumably a power the the iPhone charger actually what the heck would that before because it already has a wall wart okay well let's just assume that's useful for something and leave it at that okay so okay yes I will get to that I will get to that believe me I'm not I'm not gonna pass up that opportunity okay so let's just take it the thing is surprisingly heavy I mean they say it's a weighted base and I can see the value of a weighted base because that way it's not gonna fall very easily I mean if it does fall it'll probably hurt your foot so be careful so go ahead and pull that open just got some elastic cords here tying together the packaging okay there we go all right that actually feels pretty good that feels pretty slick so I'd say the base weighs maybe about it's gotta weigh at least a pound and a half pound pound and a half or so okay right here are the charging contacts contacts contacts for the hands-free okay so here camera man's handing me his iPhone so that I can show you guys how it fits in here so the iPhone when you have the appropriate liner so it comes with two one for iPhone for one for iPhone previous-generation will sit in there like that with proper support and basically what happens is when your phone rings when you're at home whether you have it on the charger or not it's just a Bluetooth Bluetooth headset essentially with a receiver like this it'll ring on here instead of on here so what's the value of this that's the question to ask yourself oh and you okay you got volume button volume up volume down pick up and so that's that's pretty nice what's the value of this well the value of it is that lots of people don't have a landline anymore at my house we have two cell phones and zero landlines so having something like this is yes camera man degrees camera man also doesn't have a landline so especially with younger people this is becoming the only bill that they really feel like paying why pay another bill well I have another phone line I don't know so anyway the value of this guy is that now you can talk in relative comfort you don't have to have an iPhone pushed up against your face I'm not going to touch camera man's cuz he has like Mac germs and stuff so it'll get all over my face and stuff and uh but you don't have to pay for an extra line BAM that's that's pretty much the whole point so this guy's wireless charges on here I should show you guys where the plugs are so it's just plain sleek design actually there is the power and there's the USB moving around to the other side looks like that looks like that you got little rubber pieces here where you lay down the phone so it doesn't get damaged in any way so whether you have an iPhone or any other kind of phone personally I like this I think it's a cool idea because you don't have to you're you're not necessarily tied to your cell phone your cell phone can ring in the living room and you'll still know where your your landline phone is so you can go pick it up so this one is gonna actually be deployed in camera man's house so maybe I'll do a follow-up at some point in the future to let you guys know it's any good thanks for checking it out don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips oh yeah yeah cameraman reminded me after is like as soon as I wrapped it up he was like yeah you forgot and I was like yes I did okay so here are the instructions press the mfb button 0 for 5 seconds search for Bluetooth device on your phone and look for Moshi Moshi zero zero zero zero zero zero zero yes four zeros and then you say hi which this is apparently means hi in Japanese that's also something I didn't that's also something I didn't know that the cameraman told me there's a huge instruction booklet partially because it's in lots of different languages okay so if I have two cellphones paired and connected which one will be used you can answer calls received on either phone you can initiate a call by using the button to either redial the last call use your phone's boy style feature very cool so you can yeah like I said you can have two phones pair to it at the same time very neat little device and I will hopefully be doing a follow-up in the future
