And the nice thing is if you're done playing for a minute, hit the button, it goes to sleep. You don't actually have to like restart your game or save or anything like that. All of you should always save your game. Now at first, I was a little bit turned off by the idea that it's plastic, 'cause I thought, like in all the images it looked metal, but the more I use it, it's a nice sturdy plastic. It's a little bit matte, but also, it's a Game Boy. Kinda actually want it to be plastic I think. I had no more. I kind of use it, like the buttons don't have like some super high-end field. They're not like really tactile or clicky or anything. Like they're still a little mushy, but they're mushy in the exact same way that the Game Boy was. In fact, I'd say they're actually slightly higher quality than the kind of buttons you got on a Game Boy.

Jared, can you help me out here for a second.

What's up?

What are the ship times on this, on the website right now?

Fulfillment group C, 2023.

23?

What are these going for on eBay?

I will sell as sponsorship on this channel to formally ask for one of these ahead of 2023. I don't even know if I'll make it to 2023.

This isn't the end of the segment.

I got more items.

We ain't done, son. This is not something that normally lands on Mystery Tech. Right?

But I received something in the mail that I just have to share. Can you see this little Pokeball on the letter? For Austin, from John P. Age 10, please put in a wistery tech.

Well, this is Mystery Tech, but how can I say no? You put a Pokeball on the front of it. Very excited.

Thank you, John, for your kind contribution to this episode of Mystery Tech. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Look at this. All right. So we've got ourselves a note here.

Dear Austin, first of all, I love your videos and your podcast. Shout out, John.

He listens to the Test Drivers?

He has a $138 MSI graphics card. Also should I use 16 gigs of RAM? I hope you love what is in this envelope. Your best subscriber, John, age 10.

P.S, please feature me a video. Also if Ken wants one of these envelopes, I can send him one.

Oh, never mind, I'm all happy now.

John, I would say that a $130 MSI graphics card, probably a good idea, because it's hard to get your hands on graphics cards. I'd be a little curious on which MSI graphics card it is. And also 16 gigs of RAM is an excellent amount of RAM. Sounds like a plan to me.

Let me see what you've made cause this looks very cool.

Whoa.

John. John, did you just make the Pokemon 11 card Surfing Pikachu pack, a custom pack of Pokemon cards, apparently cost $30. I don't even want to open it. This is so good.

Look, he's literally written every thing on the back. You can even flip it up here. It says 9 commons, 1 uncommon, 1 rare and a promo, ages 5 and up, copyright 2021 by John.

This is well thought out.

John. Thank you my friend.

Oh, well yo, it even opens like a regular pack of Pokemon cards. You can open it from the top and separate it. Yo, let's go.

Okay, for a second I though the drew all the cards.

All right. Let's see. See what we got from the John limited edition pack of cards. Energy, we've got a Fletchling. Wow.

This is the old school. That's from Steam Siege.

Yo John, these are like old school cards. These are like from 2017, 2018, this is a Dragonair.

John, I appreciate the attention to detail that you also included a reverse and our last card is, oh my goodness. Do you see that shine? That's a full art. Oh, it's a promo. It is an Eternatus V promo.

John, that's sweet. Yo, thank you, my friend.

All right. We gotta hook up John now. We gotta hook up John. That's so thoughtful.

It's got a cool.All right look,I'm a sucker for thingsthat have my name on them.The reveal is,oh, that looks like a switch.All right, let's go.Wow.- Why? Why?(laughs)What do you hope to gain fromsmelling all these products?- You've ever been toa Payless shoe store?(laughing)I got this.(laughing)Real talk though, first impressions.This all feels like it's metal.Well, this bottom is plastic.But I think the front is actual metal.Those are the USB-C on top and on bottom.- I like the big air flowis also out of your touch points too.- Yeah, yeah.- It's like in the middleand on the top.- My concern with this asis the Steam Deck, right?There's a lot of heft here.If you're used to using the Switch,I even use the Switch Lite.You can play that pretty comfortablyfor a long period of time.This weighs more, right.It's just simply bigger,which means that you're gonna havea little bit more strain on your wristbecause you have to hold it up.But, that being said,this should have a lot more performance.So, this is a Ryzen 7 5800U.Unlike the Steam Deck,which is using the newerstyle of AMD processor,it's a custom 4 core with RDNA graphics.This instead is using an 8 core processor,but the older Vega graphics.We also have a 2 terabyte SSD inside.How much is the Aya Neo NEXT?'Cause this is in the go go at the moment,or is this actually on sale yet?- So, the Neo Nextis 1345 for the 2 terabyte.- 1300 bucks.That's a little bit moreexpensive than the Steam Deck.Now, they did say that thisis not a complete final unit.So this is still early.I think that they're still goingthrough the prototyping phase.So, what I'm not gonna dois go through benchmarksand all that kind of stuff.Let's hop into a game of Forza.I mean, we're gettinglike mid forties framesper second right now.So, right now I amrunning at medium settingsat 1280 x 800.I'm a big fan of the triggers.'Cause I believe the first Aya Neodidn't have analog triggers, right?- No, it just hadbuttons essentially.- Which that ain't it,especially if you everplay any racing games,you wanna have full analog triggers.To me, it's hard to justify spending overa thousand dollars on anykind of portable gaming PC,when the Steam Deck is so close.The Steam Deck feelslike it's really similarin a lot of ways and half the price.It's tough to justify it.- I just think saying,oh, you just have to get a Steam Deckis just not the exact comparison.Although they're in the same class,they're not the same product.This allows you to go upto 2 terabytes of storage.This is much smaller than the Steam Deck.It has a bigger batterythan the Steam Deck.It's still gonna come eventuallywith the same specs as the Steam Deck.It's a more premiumversion of the same thing.Sure, you can go buy a Civic,but you can also go buy a Mercedes.I'm not saying that you shouldn't gobuy a Steam Deck.- Yeah.- What I'm saying is- You think this is better.- You should not discount this.And I would think if I had the money,I would rather have asmaller, more portable device.That's more easy to put into a bag.- Well, it sounds like is that we're gonnado a head to head comparisonbetween the Aya Neo NEXTand the Steam Deck assoon as that comes out.Make sure you're subscribed,ring-a-ling the ding-a-ling bellfor Jared and I and our slug fest,to determine what the bestSwitch replacement is.That's, just buy the switch actually.(dramatic music)(packaging rumbling)- Give it.(laughing)- I thought you were gonna fall for it.I thought, I actually could grab it.Hello, friends and welcometo the Razer Zephyr mask.Oh, I didn't even thinkyou would think of me like.Aw, I'm so excited.So, if you're not familiarwith our friends over at Razer.They make some wacky stuff sometimes.We made an entire videoon some of the goofy stuffthat Razer makes.But this has gotta be top 10 weird things.This is a Bluetooth mask,that has not only RGBbecause Razer, it alsohas changeable filtersand it has (indistinct), right?(laughs)Oh boy, it's got a motor inside.So, you're not just breathing in and out.You're being pure.- You're circulating air.I have a way that we can test thisthat you may or may not approve of.- Fart on my face.(laughs)- That's how you get pink eye.- No.(laughs)- Oh, activate.(motor whirring)It's a nice little hump.Gotta say if this is actuallyhow loud it is though,that's kind of wild.Put the bottom strap around my nape.What's my nape?- Is this?- Oh my god.- The back of your neck.- The back of your neck.- Oh, well I can breathe.I can hear the fans, like- I don't like thatI can you see your mouth.(laughs)No, no, no, no, no.(laughs)- So, when it comes to the Zephyr,I have a few different functions.So right now I'm on low fan speed.I can kinda do this, although honestly,I feel like I want it on highjust cause I need more airflowand now I can change myinternal lighting, right.So, you see my mouth rightnow. So I'm going to go blue.- God, that's even worse.No, no.(grunts)That's slightly better.(grunts)- Would you guys wear one of these?- Nope.- Nope with a 10 foot pole.- Not a chance.- I don't want peoplehyper-focusing on my mouth.Those two LEDs next to it,Look really cool,but when it lights your mouth, no.- I personally don't thinkthat being able to see my mouthis the most important thing for me,but I understand thatfor a lot of people- Do you know what it is?- that actually is a major selling point.- No I figured it out.The, the way that theplastic is curved on it.- Yeah.- It magnifiesthe size of your mouth.- I don't no,no, no. You stop that.- Is that white?- This looks like LogicAnnoying Orange.(everyone laughing)(dramatic music)- Activate Mystery Tech, Ultimate Ears.Are these headphones?For your ears only.Follow these simple stepsto find your perfect fit.So, typically when it comes to doingthese fully custom in-ear monitors,you have to actually go to a space,they need to measure your earsand they essentially builda custom set of headphonesthat are exactly meant for you, right.This is what you see like artists,when they're out thereperforming and stuff, you know,they have that custom in ear piece in.Ballers essentially.- So, these areactually not too bad, 250.- That's it?So, just for context, thesecustom in-ear monitorstypically will cost you, I mean,I think starting at 500 bucks,but they oftentimes will go up toand above a thousand dollars.I mean, they're very expensive.Because think about it,you're not just buying anice pair of earphones.You're buying somethingwhich has been completelycustom molded to your ears.All right, so, we're gonna take our case,we're gonna open it up,place our earbuds in, try them on.Okay.You mold both sides at the same time.Okay, so we're basically, I'mgoing to put them in my ears,adjust them until theyfeel comfortable. Okay.I mean that pretty much immediatelyfeels pretty good to me.So, it's just playing alittle bit of like a beat.So, I just need to like gentlyadjust them until I find it,where it sounds the best.Oh, they're about to start getting warmand molding to my ears.Oh boy.Oh, it's getting warm. Whoa.Okay. They're very warm rightnow, but it's happening.They're essentially curing the tips.Yo, this is very cool.So, I' am gonna go ahead andput them back in the case nowand install the software update.- Battery lifeapparently is eight hoursof earbud battery life,- Okay.- 20 hours with the case.- Okay.- 10 minutes of chargefor 60 minutes of listening.- That all sounds pretty solid.8 hours is actuallypretty good consideringthat most earbuds likeAirPods and Galaxy Budsare usually a little closerto like three to five,I think is probably the norm.There are a couple of concerning things,as far as using theseas like daily earbuds.The case is big, right.I'll try to fit it into mylittle pocket, but like,this is always the test.Can a pair of earbuds livein your little coin pocket, right.'Cause if it can't,I'm not gonna say I'm notgoing to carry them all day,but I only have so many pocketsand this is my earbud pocket.Ooh, that's chunky.I could carry these.That's borderline too big,but I think it might work.I'll immediately say,I think the left is alittle bit of a better fitthan the right.I hear a little bit morebleed from the right,but let me actually do the test and see.It looks like your earbuds are fitting well.I said everything's okay.And it's like, great.Everything's good.The thing that I justkinda paused a little bitwith these though, is the sound quality.They don't sound bad.I would put them in thesame category as somethinglike a pair of AirPods,but that's not a ringingendorsement, right.If you think about theStatuses that we take a look aton a previous episode of Mystery Tech,excellent sound quality.And they have thatreally long battery lifeadmittedly in a chunky sort of case,but they're certainly not this expensive.If the fit is the most importantthing you're looking for,then yeah, these are great.But the problem is is thatthere are other headphonesthat are cheaper, thatdeliver similar sound qualityand a whole lot more features, right.With active noise cancellation,with the transparency mode,with the ability to easilyswap between devices.These really have one claim to fame.And while it's good,I don't know if it's $250 goodwhen so many other greatBluetooth headphones exist.(dramatic music)Hey Ken, I have a proposition for you.- Mm-hmm.I'm gonna run thissegment of Mystery Tech.Hello, it's me, Austin.Greetings friends.Today, I'm gonna sharesome of my favorite techwith the room,except that I'm going to keep it all,but you guys could getto watch me open it.(packaging rumbling)The tyranny is over.This right here is the Analogue Pocket.Now Analogue has madea number of differentretro inspired devices over the years.In fact, back in like 2016 or something,we actually did a video onthe Analogue, what was it?The NES, whatever they calledit, the NT or something,but the Pocket is without a doubt,the most ambitiousconsole they've done yet.The Analogue Pocket. Oh my god.I'm so.This thing is, mm.I am gonna touch it for the first time.It's plastic.I definitely thought this was metal.If you've played a GameBoy or any kind of,sort of more old schoolconsole that uses a 1989 LCD,you know the screens are terrible, right.No back lighting.The thing with the Analogue Pocketis that it has such a modernhigh resolution displaythat it can not only play the game,but you actually can get allof the little sub pixel detailand accurate color and what not.From what I've seen,this thing is next level.I'm gonna update the OS,but Analogue were very kindto send over quite literallyall of the accessories.The Game Gear adapter.So, the nice thing is this out of the box,will work with Game Boy, Game Boy Colorand Game Boy Advance games.You can just drop them right in.But if you wanna play some other titles,including Game Gear games,you can add the little adaptersand it'll work for that as well.Whereas of the Analogue Dock.So, if all this wasn't enough,you can hook this up via USB-Cand then you are able to play your gamein high-quality on a TV, which is nice.Although, let's face it.I wanna play it on the actual display.The OS is incredibly simple.Nanoloop is the digitalwork station for GBA.I'll make music.I'm making music first.(music beats)I don't know how to make beats.We're just gonna move on.I'll leave that to Josh. Okay.Josh know what he's doing. Okay.Let's start with theoriginal Game Boy game.(old school game music)Oh my God. That looks great.Let's go, boys.Let's go. Oh, no get outof the way, Lewis!- Blue flag, blue flag.- The way that it emulatesthe Game Boy's screenis incredible.Because you can see the individual pixels.You also see like the lines,the go around the pixels.Oh, that is sweet. All right.All right. All right.I get the idea.Let's actually play agame that's not terrible.Polaris SnoCross.Is this a 60 FPS game on a Game Boy?Holy crap.Well, that makes such a bigdifference to the responsivenesscompared to like F1 race,which is like five frames per second.We can use Game Gear, we canuse a bunch of other things.But, what I'm curiousabout is how it handleda Game Boy Advance game,which has not only a different resolution,but also it has a differentaspect for the show.Yo, wait, wait, wait.I can tell if I look super closely,it's not perfect scalingon the Game Boy Advance,but it's still very sharp.(Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire music)And also sounds great too.(Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire music)And the nice thing is if you'redone playing for a minute,hit the button, it goes to sleep.You don't actually haveto like restart your gameor save or anything like that.All of you should always save your game.Now at first, I was alittle bit turned offby the idea that it's plastic,'cause I thought, like in allthe images it looked metal,but the more I use it,it's a nice sturdy plastic.It's a little bit matte,but also, it's a Game Boy.Kinda actually want itto be plastic I think.I had no more.I kind of use it, likethe buttons don't havelike some super high-end field.They're not like reallytactile or clicky or anything.Like they're still a little mushy,but they're mushy in the exact same waythat the Game Boy was.In fact, I'd say they'reactually slightly higher qualitythan the kind of buttonsyou got on a Game Boy.Jared, can you help meout here for a second.- What's up?- What are the ship times onthis, on the website right now?- Fulfillment group C, 2023.- 23?- What are these going for on eBay?- I will sell asponsorship on this channelto formally ask for oneof these ahead of 2023.I don't even know if I'll make it to 2023.- You probably won't.(dramatic music)This isn't the end of the segment.I got more items.(Ken grunts)We ain't done, son.This is not something thatnormally lands on Mystery Tech.Right?But I received something in the mailthat I just have to share.Can you see this littlePokeball on the letter?For Austin, from John P.
