  • - Hey guys!

  • This is Austin and Drop?

  • Is this what Massdrop changed their name to?

  • - [Ken] Yes.

  • So this is one of their Bounty Boxes, and it has-

  • - Wait!

  • Wait!

  • Are you trying to tell me

  • this is full of like mystery items?

  • You get so lazy, you couldn't even get stuff

  • for Mystery Tech, you just bought a random box?

  • - [Ken] This is the epitome of Mystery Tech

  • 'cause even I don't know what's in there.

  • Well, I prescreened it,

  • but I didn't take anything out.

  • - [Austin] Well, okay, all right.

  • Well this is a lotta stuff.

  • What?

  • What?

  • Wait, wait.

  • How much is this box?

  • [Ken] Two hundred and fifty dollars.

  • - Two (laughing) I don't,

  • I'm not even gonna be mad.

  • All right, so this is the Kershaw Zing SS Knife.

  • Whoo, so Kershaw actually does make pretty nice knives.

  • It seems,

  • well, pretty dull, but that's fine.

  • All right, we'll use this to open everything else up.

  • Well we have to start with Lumenology portable motion light.

  • This is,

  • meh.

  • This is not even good.

  • What, what is this?

  • (upbeat music)

  • So this is a light.

  • Is it bright, Ken?

  • You're not even on the camera!

  • You're not even paying attention!

  • - [Ken] I'm tryna

  • - Ken!

  • - [Ken] I'm tryna see how much of a value -

  • - Look, look!

  • I'm in front of the camera,

  • and you're not doing anything right now.

  • - [Ken] How long does it take?

  • - Don't worry about it.

  • (suspenseful music)

  • - Okay.

  • Okay, it's off now.

  • Now if I get up right now, it should turn on.

  • Everyone ready?

  • - [Ken] Yes.

  • - Ahhh!

  • It literally works, it works.

  • Great Mystery Tech item, Ken.

  • - [Ken] Cool, how much do you think it is

  • on its own?

  • - Thirty dollars.

  • - [Ken] Forty.

  • (Austin singing Twilight Zone theme song)

  • - So right now we have sixty five dollars worth of value

  • out of our two hundred fifty dollar box.

  • Let's see what else we have.

  • A ForeverSpin CNC top.

  • Oh it's made out of titanium!

  • Ooh wait, how much is this?

  • A ForeverSpin titanium top?

  • - [Matt] That is forty-seven dollars.

  • - Forty-seven dollars for a titanium top.

  • Titanium top is a fun thing to say.

  • A titanium top.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Okay!

  • That's not particularly worth forty-seven dollars.

  • However, it's okay.

  • None of this stuff is trash.

  • The BGVP DMG.

  • Ultimate quality six driver hybrid in your ear phones.

  • Isn't the whole point of an earphone to be in ear?

  • - [Ken] Also I would take out

  • I see a topping thing over there.

  • I'm pretty sure that's a DAC and amp of some -

  • - Ooh!

  • This goes together.

  • Ah...

  • Well it supports high res audio wireless.

  • Interesting.

  • - [Ken] That's cool.

  • - So my guess is this is a hundred fifty bucks?

  • - [Matt] Hundred fifty nine.

  • - Hundred fifty nine, okay.

  • And then how 'bout that amp?

  • I'm going to say one twenty.

  • - [Matt] I see it right now on sale for one eighty.

  • - Ooh!

  • - [Matt] When it's not on sale, two twenty.

  • - So essentially right now,

  • the headphones and the amp are about the price of the box.

  • - [Ken] So not bad.

  • - I mean, not terrible, but it's very dependent on

  • is this something you actually want?

  • Hey Ken?

  • This didn't come with a power adapter.

  • - [Ken] What?

  • No, it's bus powered.

  • - Is it bus powered though?

  • No.

  • - Are you sure it didn't come with one?

  • No way.

  • There's no way.

  • - [Austin] Wait, I thought I saw one.

  • Oh wait, no.

  • I plugged it in already.

  • I plugged it in like thirty seconds ago.

  • (laughing)

  • - [Ken] How have you been -

  • like operating for the past ten years?

  • I don't understand.

  • How old is the channel?

  • - [Matt] People look to you for advice.

  • - Oh, well that fits pretty well

  • just with the standard ear tips.

  • That's actually a surprisingly good seal.

  • Like that's really killing like pretty much any noise.

  • (clicking)

  • - Ooh!

  • You hear that?

  • (clicking)

  • Oh yeah!

  • That's what I'm talking about.

  • All right, crank it down, so I don't accidentally

  • blow my ears out.

  • Let's listen to the new Madeon.

  • Holy (beep).

  • (upbeat music)

  • What the (beep)?

  • It's incredible just how much separation there is

  • between the different segments of the audio, right?

  • I mean, the bass feels like it's in its own little pocket.

  • The highs are in their own little pocket.

  • Like it's so clear.

  • Okay, okay, okay.

  • After listening to them for a little bit longer,

  • they're not like the most incredible thing ever.

  • There are a couple of headphones that I've listened to

  • which are a little bit better,

  • but I mean, when we're getting into this kind of

  • level of being an audiophile,

  • it's like a game of inches, right?

  • I mean another thousand dollars might get you

  • two percent better here, and five percent better here.

  • I mean this is incredible.

  • Like this is seriously some of the best sounding,

  • definitely for sure the best sounding headphones

  • we've ever had on Mystery Tech.

  • Like it's not even close.

  • The only things I've listened to that are

  • better than this are like the

  • really insanely high-end stuff.

  • And honestly,

  • Dude, these are really nice.

  • Like I legit wanna like start carrying these.

  • Like they're small enough,

  • they're portable enough.

  • I dunno if I need this DAC to actually drive them,

  • so I dunno if I necessarily want to use it with my phone.

  • But super super impressive.

  • All right, your lazy Massdrop excursion

  • was actually a success.

  • This stuff was pretty solid.

  • Except for this.

  • This was a little bit much.

  • Is that the Razer Blackwidow Lite?

  • - [Ken] Yes it is.

  • - [Austin] Didn't we do a video on this last year?

  • Or earlier this year?

  • - [Ken] Yes.

  • - And that's the Opto-Mechanical switch that

  • (mechanical clicking)

  • That's what I love.

  • That we did a video on last year.

  • Okay, I'm sensing a Razer theme here.

  • Razer switches, Razer switches.

  • - Nut.

  • - I don't see where you're going with this.

  • - [Ken] So I might've found the next best button ever.

  • - I don't think you did.

  • Okay.

  • It's just a pillow.

  • It's just an enter key-

  • a what, oh.

  • I thought it was just an enter key pillow.

  • (laughing)

  • This is really just an enter key?

  • Is this all this does?

  • - [Ken] Yes.

  • (laughing)

  • - Aight, I'm in, I'm in.

  • Sign me up.

  • Let's go to YouTube.com/thisis, maybe?

  • - [Matt] Can you stop promoting This Is for one minute?

  • - Ready?

  • (Austin laughing)

  • Yep, it worked.

  • That's it.

  • The end.

  • End the video.

  • Thanks for watching.

  • The enter button works.

  • All right.

  • Let's go to (keyboard tapping)

  • (laughing)

  • Okay.

  • We're going to tweet using the enter button.

  • Oh wait.

  • I'm just spacing my tweet down.

  • [Ken] Control enter.

  • - [Austin] Okay fine.

  • Ready?

  • And...

  • Sent.

  • This is how I will tweet from now on.

  • The people on Twitter already know that we're shooting

  • Mystery Tech right now.

  • Congratulations!

  • You figured it out.

  • You see weird things on Twitter,

  • you know it's Mystery Tech time.

  • - Nut

  • - [Ken] We got a gift from our friends at Microsoft.

  • - Oh!

  • (laughing)

  • So actually I do know what this is.

  • This is the brand new Gears Five edition of the Xbox One X.

  • So Microsoft, they very graciously provided it,

  • and Ken shoehorned it in as Mystery Tech,

  • but I know what this one is.

  • Oh actually, I haven't seen it yet.

  • It looks really cool.

  • Microsoft, I apologize for using the nut button

  • to introduce your wonderful product,

  • which I'm sure you took many many hours,

  • and you wanted to come and hand deliver it to us

  • because we're such good friends.

  • You really deserve better than that.

  • However, even I'm not above a good

  • - Nut

  • - Joke.

  • Yo, okay, that's actually pretty cool.

  • So its got like the diamond grips on the back

  • and it actually even has like a real medal little emblem.

  • Its even got like the triggers, too.

  • The textured triggers.

  • This actually might be one of the coolest

  • Xbox controllers I've seen.

  • Dude are you serious right now?

  • If you look really closely, you can see

  • that this part is actually inlaid,

  • so there's like the front plastic piece,

  • and then you can see that it's a clear piece

  • on top of the actual Gears logo.

  • Oh dude, the cracks are even real.

  • Like they're actually etched into the console.

  • Oh dude look it's even got like the Horde logo

  • on the bottom with the snow.

  • This is really cool.

  • It's actually got tons of -

  • - Nut

  • - Thanks.

  • That's a well placed nut.

  • Yo that is absolutely the coolest limited edition Xbox.

  • I liked the Minecraft version of the One S.

  • That was really cool.

  • But this,

  • this is rad.

  • - [Ken] Just a random thought.

  • Our nut button matches the controller.

  • - [Austin] It's fate.

  • (upbeat music)

  • - [Ken] Same energy.

  • - That big nut energy.

  • So you may recall.

  • Years and years ago,

  • we did a video on the Samsung Galaxy View.

  • This was a special tablet with a giant display.

  • And this is the brand new Samsung Galaxy View 2.

  • (upbeat music)

  • I don't know why this exists.

  • How much is a Samsung Galaxy View 2?

  • - [Matt] Only thirty dollars.

  • - Thirty dollars.

  • - [Matt] A month.

  • - For how long?

  • - [Matt] Twenty months.

  • (laughing)

  • - Wait.

  • (whooshing)

  • That's six hundred dollars?

  • What's the MSRP on this?

  • - [Matt] Oh wait, thirty seven dollars.

  • MSRP is seven hundred and forty dollars.

  • - So when you heard me say giant tablet,

  • did you really know

  • just how big this tablet was going to be?

  • Oh it actually folds flat now though.

  • That's nice.

  • Oh this is totally different.

  • It's a completely different hinge.

  • So it's essentially, it's a giant tablet

  • with a very large built-in kickstand.

  • This way you're rocking down.

  • Say your boombox, you're like

  • (upbeat music)

  • Yeah, what up?

  • - Hey guys this is Austin, and today

  • Ken and I are going head to head.

  • He has purchased some of the most expensive

  • gaming gear on Amazon,

  • whereas I'd chosen to go with a different route.

  • - [Austin] The screen is fine.

  • The audio is actually pretty full,

  • but the thing is,

  • it almost kinda sounds a little bit echo-y

  • because the speakers are on the back,

  • so it kinda bounces against the stand.

  • I don't quite understand why someone would buy this.

  • I have a front facing camera.

  • I think that's it though.

  • Where's the camera, oh it's up top.

  • I can't, yeah, it just has a front facing camera.

  • I describe that as mediocre at best.

  • But we look very happy, and that's really

  • the most important thing.

  • Imagine if you could take photos like this!

  • Like, Come here, no, no, no, look this way!

  • Say hi, hi Ken!

  • You're actually totally be like someone who was like that.

  • - [Ken] So when you were a kid,

  • What was more fun than a pillow fight?

  • - More fun than a pillow fight?

  • Water gun fight?

  • - [Matt] Whoa! Whoa!

  • - What?

  • Who wants to play with pillows.

  • Not a bunch a little girls.

  • I wanna get like super soakers out.

  • - [Ken] I'm going to ask one more time.

  • What was more fun than a pillow fight?

  • - A fight with fists?

  • (Matt singing Socker Boppers jingle)

  • - [Matt] I forgot the words

  • (upbeat music)

  • (clapping)

  • - Does this mean I get to kick your ass now?

  • - [Ken] That's what Matt's here for.

  • - Oh no!

  • Boo!

  • All right.

  • I'm not even gonna ask how much these were.

  • Wait, they weren't more than

  • $19.95, were they?

  • - [Matt] They were eleven dollars each.

  • - Okay, pretty reasonable.

  • - [Matt] Please be careful with that knife.

  • - Why.

  • - [Matt] They inflate.

  • - Oh well yes.

  • I'm aware of how these things work, Matt.

  • Thank you very much.

  • So if you were not born in the nineties,

  • or you're lame,

  • you might not know these Sock 'Em Boppers are the

  • Socker Boppers?

  • I don't know what these are called.

  • Whatever.

  • Basically, you inflate them,

  • and then you beat up your friends,

  • and your mom won't yell at you.

  • Probably.

  • Inflate by first pinching valve at its base

  • with your fingers while blowing (laughing) into the valve.

  • - [Matt] I'm doing that!

  • - No no no no no.

  • That'll blow it up.

  • That'll blow it up.

  • You can blow it.

  • It just takes like six or seven blows.

  • Just blow harder, Ken, blow harder.

  • - I thought I'd heard that in my life.

  • I just didn't think I'd hear that from you.

  • (blowing air)

  • - Nut.

  • (laughing)

  • - I don't like any of this.

  • - You walked right into that one.

  • (laughing)

  • Welcome to the first annual Rock 'Em

  • Sock 'Em Bop 'N Punch Fest.

  • That's a different toy from the nineties.

  • - Okay, look, nostalgia.

  • - Gentleman, let's have a clean fight.

  • - No.

  • - Nothing below the belt.

  • Unless you want to.

  • We don't have a bell so

  • - Nut.

  • - All right.

  • (laughing)

  • No, no.

  • No you put your foot down.

  • (laughing)

  • (grunting)

  • - [Matt] You definitely got me in the face.

  • - The world Sock 'Em Bop 'N Champion, Austin One-Foot Evans!

  • (upbeat music)

  • Well that's not the way Mystery Tech was supposed to go.

- Hey guys!
