  • - Hey guys, this is Austin

  • and welcome back to another edition of Wish Mystery Tech,

  • this time featuring 100% more Amazon.

  • So today, every item that I pick on Wish,

  • we need to find an equivalent version on Amazon,

  • and see just exactly how good or bad the deal is.

  • Consumers, prepare to be advised.

  • I have a Sennhei IE 800 for $27 here.

  • Shall we take another spin at the roulette wheel?

  • - [Ken] Yes, original without box.

  • - [Austin] Original without box, okay, $32.

  • (humming) Man, there's a lot of censoring

  • we have to do on this one, dude.

  • So this is interesting.

  • So a pair of Nike React 270s.

  • - [Ken] Ooh!

  • - [Austin] You know what?

  • 20 bucks, let's see if these are real shoes.

  • - [Ken] What's that look?

  • - [Austin] Elastic shirt garter.

  • That's a good idea, right?

  • - [Ken] I need a bunch of those in my life, yeah.

  • - I mean, obviously it's gonna be uncomfortable

  • and look really weird on your leg,

  • but to keep your shirt nicely from being untucked.

  • - [Ken] Well yeah, but like,

  • the five percent of your life

  • that you're going to be in front of someone.

  • - Yeah, yeah, no, that totally makes sense.

  • Whoa, five percent?

  • (Ken laughing) Five percent!

  • What's five percent?

  • What, Ken, what are you doing man?

  • Five percent's a lot.

  • Oh, an iPhone.

  • An iPhone 6s, unlocked, $140.

  • So yeah, these are definitely used.

  • So we can pick B grade or A grade.

  • I mean, let's just get the cheap one, right?

  • 16 gig B grade?

  • Oh, what is this, an iPad?

  • Fourth gen.

  • - [Ken] That's not bad, right?

  • - For a hundred dollars?

  • Should we try to grab some fake, or sorry,

  • (clearing throat)

  • some refurbished Apple products from Wish?

  • I found an S10, an S10 Plus.

  • - How much? - $153.

  • Let's see the photos.

  • Oh wait, that actually looks like an S10.

  • (humming)

  • All right, let's buy ourselves the latest

  • six point five inch, dynamic AMOLED screen,

  • 4G unlocked smart phone.

  • Okay, so with a grand total of $480 and $82 for shipping,

  • we have all the items we need for our Wish investigation.

  • See exactly just how real and how good of a deal

  • some of this stuff really is.

  • Hello my friends and welcome.

  • (dinosaur roaring)

  • You almost took me out with that one.

  • All right.

  • Okay, so these are the supposedly real

  • Sennheiser IE 800 headphones.

  • Now this is actually the entire reason why we did this video

  • was because we had originally taken a look

  • at another pair of these on a Wish Mystery Tech

  • a couple months ago.

  • And they were incredibly, incredibly authentic.

  • They came in the box, everything.

  • I thought we had bought this with the box.

  • This was supposed to come

  • in the original packaging, wasn't it?

  • Original without box.

  • The packaging straight up looks real.

  • I mean, it's even magnetic.

  • And then we have the headphones themselves.

  • So, again, just like the last ones,

  • these look very authentic.

  • However, I think to really, properly test,

  • well, we're gonna need a,

  • we need to do something a little painful I think.

  • And by painful I mean,

  • let's buy a real pair.

  • (woman screaming) (cash register ding)

  • So, these are the real deal.

  • Ken, how much did we pay for the real IE 800s?

  • - [Ken] Well, they would have been $700.

  • - $700.

  • - But, - But,

  • - [Ken] So, they offered us the IE 800 S,

  • which we turned down for the sake of accuracy.

  • They sent us these anyway,

  • which means they probably didn't have

  • the regular 800s in stock.

  • - We spent this much money on something,

  • which is now no longer useful for our comparison.

  • But I guess I'm gonna compare them anyway because (laughs)

  • - [Ken] We're gonna do a non-scientific comparison.

  • - So, we've got a very similar looking carrying case.

  • Like, I mean, straight up, this looks the same.

  • So they look very slightly different

  • and the texture of them are a little bit different

  • than the standard 800s.

  • So, I've actually heard rumors

  • that part of the reason that these headphones even exist

  • is because the original IE 800s

  • were so thoroughly counterfeited across the spectrum

  • that they were just like, let's just make a new pair.

  • So, they did this.

  • Oh, and just so you guys know,

  • I am using the standard rubber tips,

  • I'm not gonna use any of the comply foam or whatever

  • because that's standard across all these guys.

  • - [Matt] You should plug it in for him!

  • - Austin's like, "Oh, why don't I do the blindfold thing?"

  • Like last second. - I just put a blindfold on.

  • Look, sometimes in life,

  • you put a blindfold on first and ask questions later.

  • - [Computer Voice] Nut.

  • - Okay.

  • (upbeat music)

  • - Okay, can I switch headphones?

  • - Yes.

  • - What's going on with these things?

  • Like, I put this in my ear and it immediately rolls back.

  • Like whatever the deal is with these,

  • like I don't know if they're the knock-offs

  • or they're lower quality, but the tips just roll right back.

  • I've got a good sense of these, I think.

  • Let me try the next ones.

  • Oh, these tips feel different.

  • Actually, this is immediately a better seal.

  • Bass seems a little less harsh on these, perhaps.

  • Not a big difference.

  • It was a little bit more booming on the last ones.

  • Ah, it's not the best seal in the world,

  • but I think I can get away with that.

  • These sound just like the first ones.

  • Like, the bass is slightly overpowering

  • and the seal, also, they're a little bit better in this one,

  • but it's just not as good as the second one.

  • You know what?

  • To be fair, can we get the same comply tips

  • that came with the real ones and just put them on all?

  • I know it's gonna take a little bit of time,

  • but I actually wanna have a proper seal with all of these,

  • 'cause I don't think it's a fair comparison right now.

  • So, my same thoughts from previous.

  • While I have a better seal now,

  • the bass is a little bit much on these.

  • It's tighter.

  • The main difference here is the bass feels tighter.

  • Both sound good, it's only when I was really cranking it up

  • that I could tell a difference between one and three,

  • which I'm pretty sure are the same, versus two.

  • But I'm gonna say that these are the S's

  • and the other two are both the knock-offs from Wish.

  • - [Ken] All right, so I've laid them all in order for you.

  • Just a reminder,

  • the orange ones were the first fake ones that we got,

  • the blue ones are the new fake ones that we got,

  • and the greens are the 800 S's.

  • - Okay, so I wanna see the green in the middle.

  • Otherwise I'm wrong.

  • (blows air)

  • Ah, I (beep) it up!

  • Aw, it's really bright. (groaning)

  • These, to me, sounded very similar.

  • And the fact that we actually paid $700 for these,

  • and we actually paid like $50 for these,

  • and I could hardly tell a difference, that's wild.

  • So, I don't know what we really proved here,

  • beyond the fact that--

  • - We're bad at scientific tests.

  • - Yes, and that we should probably've spend more time

  • and not done a single blind test, but um (clearing throat)

  • I guess, buy fake headphones on Wish?

  • - We are never getting that Sennheiser sponsorship ever.

  • (laughing)

  • - Ay!

  • These feel like fake shoes.

  • I believe these are the Nike Air React 270s?

  • Or no-- - Max.

  • - Max 270s.

  • How much were these?

  • - [Matt] $19 with $11 shipping.

  • - So 30 bucks.

  • Well, the first thing is (laughing)

  • the logo, that looks like a slightly different swoosh.

  • Look at the little thing on the top.

  • It also says fashion on them.

  • I don't think the originals say fashion.

  • (laughing)

  • It just says fashion on them. (laughing)

  • Let's put these aside for one second.

  • I have, if you will be so kind,

  • purchased a pair of real Air 270s at a grand total of $150.

  • (laughing) It's like Potato Gaming versus real gaming.

  • So you can see that it's got

  • like a Nike swoosh in roughly the same spot.

  • You've got one here, it says Air 270.

  • The text on the back is very different.

  • So this actually has the black sole,

  • which you can see looks really cheap and fake.

  • I mean, that's really the real key right here.

  • - [Ken] The main appeal of the Air Max 270s are the bubble

  • and that bubble's just not it.

  • - It has a bubble, no this is a real bubble.

  • - [Ken] No, no, but it's not the bubble.

  • - It's not the bubble, it is a bubble.

  • Um, I mean,

  • they don't feel like the worst thing.

  • It's a cheap shoe.

  • If you've ever worn a very cheap shoe,

  • like I grew up for

  • - What are those? - a lot of years wearing.

  • Then it's okay, I mean, the feel of it's not the big issue.

  • But the actual, legit Nike,

  • it definitely has a lot more flexibility.

  • I'm bubbling right now.

  • Wish, stop selling knock-off shoes.

  • These, they're just sad.

  • Oh, look, this nondescript white boxes

  • that totally don't have something illicit inside.

  • Oh, it's an iPhone!

  • - [Matt] (laughing) He pulled a Linus!

  • - So unlike the things that we've taken

  • a look at in the past,

  • in the past, I mean,

  • unlike the things that we took a look at two minutes ago,

  • this is supposedly a real iPhone.

  • I have no reason to doubt that.

  • But the main selling point here

  • is that this is a refurbished iPhone.

  • So, uh, okay,

  • it actually is in very good cosmetic shape.

  • There's some very minor, little scuffs by the camera,

  • but, there's like a tiny chip on the top,

  • I would say this is still in very good quality.

  • Yeah, there's a little bit of wear by the port.

  • Matt, how much was this iPhone 6s?

  • - [Matt] $135 plus $12 shipping.

  • - Wait, no, what?

  • This is just not a good deal.

  • Like straight up, without even turning it on,

  • assuming that it works fine,

  • which I would hope it is, it's dead, cool.

  • 135 bucks is like,

  • basically what you could buy a newer iPhone 6s,

  • at least one from a more reputable retailer

  • than some random person on Wish.

  • Let's get this charging and look at the next thing.

  • So this is a fourth generation iPad.

  • So the first thing with anything used or refurbished,

  • I'm always looking at the quality.

  • A little bit of wear, some very minor scratches,

  • but again, I would actually say

  • that the quality is pretty solid.

  • Man, I forgot how like, chunky iPads used to be.

  • Like, this is like (patting), it's a thick boy.

  • - [Anthony] That's a thick boy!

  • - Let's see if we can get this guy to power up for us.

  • No (laughing), well, lucky for us,

  • they include the exact same accessories

  • of a Jun Jun USB cable

  • and the world's slowest USB charger for an iPad.

  • It'll be charged in about four hours.

  • Be right back.

  • (thud)

  • That was an unsatisfying thump.

  • (gasping) Oh, is this our fake Galaxy S10?

  • I'm very excited.

  • This is gonna be bad.

  • I can already tell, look at the box.

  • It just says smart phone.

  • (laughing)

  • (tranquil music)

  • That doesn't look real.

  • Well apparently it's a new 5G.

  • It has a questionable tattoo on it.

  • - [Ken] Is that a tramp stamp?

  • - I was about to say that, but I didn't wanna be offensive.

  • - [Ken] It's like the tramp stamp

  • on the back of the Porsche in "Cars".

  • - (laughing) How dare you talk (beep) about Sally like that?

  • So, may I first draw your attention

  • to the fact that you can see,

  • it looks like it's got the Infinity hole punch.

  • However, if you look a little bit higher,

  • you'll see a actual front-facing camera

  • in the bezel of the phone.

  • So, we just remove that illusion right here.

  • Oh, I just realized,

  • we look to have three cameras on the back

  • and they all look identical.

  • Aw, this is gonna be fun.

  • Welcome!

  • Oh look, it's our fake camera that's part of the (laughing).

  • I love this so much, it's so good!

  • I can't believe they actually, legitimately put that in.

  • (laughing)

  • So, putting the fake one side by side with the real one,

  • obviously the bezels are much larger here.

  • I can't get over the camera.

  • So on the S10, if I open up the camera--

  • - [Ken] It did the shining thing!

  • - Oh, it does it!

  • What, what?

  • Touchscreen fingerprint.

  • This is not about to work, is it?

  • Does this actually have a fingerprint sensor?

  • No, this is not a real thing.

  • There's no way they put a fake fingerprint sensor in.

  • Wait, is this just scanning my fingerprint data

  • and uploading it some nefarious--

  • - Yes! - Whatever, that's fine.

  • - Yes. - Swipe up to unlock.

  • Okay, so it wants the PIN.

  • If I don't wanna do the PIN,

  • (claps hands) no!

  • No way, no way, hold on, hold on.

  • If I do different finger.

  • (Ken laughing)

  • Okay, phew, that scared me for a second.

  • That is definitely not a real fingerprint sensor.

  • That is all a fake.

  • Now, looking around the phone,

  • they actually do look very similar, right?

  • So the camera bumps are pretty much in the same spot,

  • it doesn't have the Samsung logo,

  • but USB C, headphone jack, speaker,

  • the buttons are all on the same sort of position.

  • This is like a legit fake.

  • Should you buy it?

  • Absolutely not, whatsoever, like under no circumstances.

  • But I mean, they put some real work into this.

  • Like this looks and feels a lot like a Galaxy S10,

  • but (grunting)

  • So after a bit of charging and some set-up,

  • we have our iPad and iPhone fully functioning.

  • I can confirm, as far as I can tell,

  • they look completely legitimate.

  • They're just refurbished.

  • The downside though,

  • is that we paid a little over a hundred dollars for this,

  • including shipping.

  • And that's like, not really any cheaper

  • than what you'd get on something like eBay or Amazon.

  • And, if you want an old iPad, this is an old iPad.

  • It runs iOS 10, so it's definitely a little bit behind,

  • and apps are starting to not support this anymore.

  • The thing is like, the hardware actually doesn't feel bad.

  • I mean, like the way,

  • if you want to use this as an eReader or something,

  • like it actually feels pretty good in the hand.

  • The screen is actually just about as good

  • as the current base iPad.

  • But considering that this is a hundred dollars

  • and you could spend a little bit more

  • to get a much newer iPad, it's kind of a harder sell.

  • However, what I do think is a little bit of an easier sell,

  • is the iPhone 6s, because this is actually fully up to date.

  • Okay, let me clarify.

  • If I ran a software update

  • and didn't want to wait 30 minutes for it to install,

  • this is still fully supported on iOS 13.

  • What you're getting here

  • is the most powerful iPhone with a headphone jack.

  • This was the last of the breed.

  • You also get this wonderful pink color.

  • And the camera's pretty decent.

  • This is still a very usable phone here in 2019, 2020, 2021,

  • wherever you're watching this video at.

  • It's 2020 right now though. (clearing throat)

  • It's December 4th, 2019.

  • But, this is a future Mystery Tech, so it's fine.

  • If you enjoyed today's episode of Mystery Tech,

  • you should definitely check out our second channel,

  • This Is, where we have a brand new series,

  • completely dedicated to testing real versus fake products

  • and some of them are from our good ol' friends at Wish.
