**Mystery Tech International with Austin and Saf**
Austin: "Hey guys, this is Austin. And today we're taking Mystery Tech International, with a certain special guest."
Saf (from Super Saf TV): "This is Saf, from Super Saf TV. I was gonna say hey guys. I wanted you to do it."
**Exploring the Gang Hua Digital Plaza**
Austin: "So we're at the Gang Hua Digital Plaza here in Taipei and I think inside this giant, seven story, enormous tech mall, we might be able to find a couple weird things."
Saf: "I think so. I've not done this before so I'm excited."
**Budget and Expectations**
Austin: "7700 New Taiwan Dollars equals $258 in the United States. So that's actually a pretty decent budget."
Saf: "That's not too bad. That's about 200 pounds, so it's not too bad. I'm sure we can find some weird stuff for that amount. Let's do it."
**Discovering Unique Items**
Austin: "This is interesting. It's a bunch of little stores in here. Everything looks familiar right now so far. Like, where's the weird stuff?"
Saf: "We need to get out of the cool area and we need to find the weird stuff. I think that's where we're actually going to be able to afford some things."
**ATM Encounter**
Austin: "Oh, did our budget just magically increase? Does ATM mean something different here?"
Saf: "(laughter) Unless it's inside there. I'm not going in. You go for it. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Look at the door, look at the door, it's locked."
**Various Finds**
Austin: "Uh oh, that looks promising. HTC Desire. Does that look like one of the Desires, right?"
Saf: "I think this is just a generic thing saying what's upstairs. But look, PC games and video games. Vehicle video records, so I'm guessing like dash cams."
**Finding More Unique Items**
Austin: "Let's go. One minute thirty-seven seconds later."
Saf: "It's out of our budget. That's why. Everything's out of our budget."
Austin: "Here, have you used one of these?"
Saf: "I have not. The Wacom with styluses. Absolutely, that's all I use, absolutely love them."
**Finding a Game Boy**
Austin: "Oh, look at back here, this is cool."
Saf: "Oh, yo, does that actually work? I think it's probably got something like Tetrison there or something. Oh, that's awesome, so--- That is pretty cool."
Austin: "Oh, aha, that's actually even better. That looks like a proper Game Boy."
**Futher Exploring**
Saf: "I've never seen these before. They look really cool. Yeah, I mean--- They're big, they're like very large Airpods."
Austin: "All right, so with our Airpods in hand things are looking much better. Now we are down to 4000? We had 5000 before right?"
Saf: "3500. Okay. Just every single cable you could ever ask for. Oh, hang on. Do they have any dongles?"
**More Finds**
Austin: "Oh, dongles my friend, we've got dongles. Does this actually spin?"
Saf: "Mhmm yes. It does? Bluetooth speaker, one spin."
Austin: "Oh, okay, one of them is a speak, the other two--- We can do that. But it still a fidget spinner speaker."

funky cases, funky accessories.- I wish we had more money.I feel like, oh, there's an ATM.Oh, did our budget justmagically increase?- Does ATM meansomething different here?(laughter)Unless it's inside there.- I'm not going in.You go for it.Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.Look at the door, lookat the door, it's locked.- Is it locked?What's that?- Yeah.So, we're almost causing it.That would have gotten us demonetized.- That would definitely be demonetized.- Uh oh, that looks promising.- HTC Desire.Does that look like oneof the Desires, right?- I think this is just a generic thingsaying what's

is pretty cool.Oh, aha, that's actually even better.That looks like a proper Game Boy.- Oh, this, which is this?- iPhone (foreign language).- iPhone 7?- That's better.- iPhone 7 and 8.- Seven and Eight?- Eight as well?- Yeah- Have you seen this, check this out.This is like a, you knowone of those Olloclip?- Oh yeah, yeah.- Okay, let's try it on the selfie.Let's take a wide selfie.Okay, okay.It's working, it's working.- That's pretty wide,oh, the selfie light.The selfie light.- We're buying this, I'm not evengonna look at it, we'll take it.(laughing)All right, so we've--- Update time- How much do you have left?- Saf just spent all of our moneyand we've been here for five minutes.- So so far we've found cameras, we foundprocessors, a lot of computers.Seems like the further up wego, the weirder stuff we found.But not really anythingthat is all that crazy.It reads a SIM?What is this?So it reads SD, microSD, XD, compact flashbut it reads SIM card.How can you possibly read a SIM card?- I don't know, I'mreally curious to find outso I think we should take it.I'm too easily convinced.- No no no, for 350 I'm down with that.- Okay, we're going to try this out.All right, we're going to find outwhat it does when weput a SIM card inside.- How does it connect,it's just USB right?- Yeah, I don't know if there is somesoftware checking contactsor something, but.- I'm really curious, maybeit is a contacts thing.- Possibly, do they havea SIM card reader here?Oh, they do.Wow.- I wonder if some ofthese stores are connected.- It's also 350, so wedidn't get ripped off.- We've got Ken's girlfriend.- Should we ask how much--- Could we buy the girlfriend?Could we buy the girlfriend?- Will it fit in your suitcase?Will she fit in your suitcase?- It looks like a carryon right?So the thing with this place is notonly do we have all ofthese floors but there'salso like an entire separate building too.I wonder how many actual stores are here.- Yeah, I think we needto be a little morecareful with our spending.- Yeah, I agree, careful,that's why the phrase.This looks promising, soit's like giant Airpods?The I7S?- TWS- All right, let's see if we can get this.- Okay- Hello.- (speaks in foreignlanguage) this, how much?- 999- Oh, 999, that's in budget.That's probably the coolestthing that we've found so far.- I've never seen these before.They look really cool.- Yeah, I mean--- They're big, they'relike very large Airpods.- They're bigger than Airpods.- All right, so with our Airpods in handthings are looking much better.Now we are down to 4000?We had 5000 before right?- 3500.- 3500, okay.Just every single cableyou could ever ask for.Oh, hang on.- Do they have any dongles?- Oh, dongles my friend,we've got dongles.Does this actually spin?- Mhmm yes.- It does?- Bluetoothspeaker, one spin.- Oh, okay, one of them isa speak, the other two--- We can do that.- But it still a fidget spinner speaker.- Yeah, yeah.- Okay, let's do it,what color do you want?- We can do blue, right?- Okay, cool.- Can we get this?We've got our fidget spinner in hand.This is coming along pretty well.- Fidget spinner, bluetooth.- I like how you saw it.You're immediately like"I have to have it".- What is that?(laughing)- I think that was pretty successful.- I think so, we've gotsome pretty weird stuff.- I think we also didn'tspend all our money right?What do you have left?- Let's have a look.I think it's maybe couplethousand, I've got a thousand,I've literally just got a thousand.- I've got a thousand fifteen.I've got sixteen hundred.So we've got 2600 left,that's actually not too bad.- Not too bad.- Let's see if any of this stuffis complete garbage or not.- Yeah I mean looks quite interesting.- 6000 miles later, we haveour mystery tech in hand.This should be fun or reallylame, haven't decided yet.Our first item is the ATM 101 digifusion.Which again, I don't understand how it'ssupposed to read SIM cards.It's got to be the contacts?So, here is the reader whichis actually kind of small,although it actually doeshave a captive USB cable.Oh look at that, we'resetting up a smartcard.Whoa okay, so it shows OL, so smartcardand USB2 CRW.Okay, well if I open up a filesI see nothing.Kind of disappointingI thought it was goingto be really cool but it, I dunno.Still don't understandwhy you would actuallywant to do that.Next up, we have the GameBoy case.So this, I am kind of curious about.Does it actually, wait,did you ever actually seeif this thing turns on?The game machine designand mobile phone case,which has been taped closed, so yeah.All right, well, it'sactually not that thick.Oh, we need a battery for it.Okay, that explains why itwasn't working in the store.Do we have a watch battery?Oh, it keeps coming out.The battery is not inthere very securely at all.Wait, it just keeps resettingnow, what's going on?Every time you hit abutton it just resets.You see this?No matter what I do it just resets.Oh, I got it, I got it, I got it.I don't know how I just did that.I'm doing a game, okay.Oh, I can shoot them.Oh, that makes so much more sense.Arghhh, okay, so onceyou actually somehow getthe game working it is kind of fun.I would say as a case, thisis actually not that bad.It's not going to be that muchthicker than a standard Iphone and even ifyou're not using it as a game, thiskind of looks cool in the back.Next up we have the beauty speaker,which I'm very, very deeply skeptical of.So, I guess the waythis is supposed to workis that it plugs into your headphone jack?And this is the whole thing.So we've got a headphonejack on the bottom,a speaker on this side,and a light on this side?Oh, wow, okay, that's a selfie light.Start taking a selfie here,see how beautiful I am now.I guess it makes a littlebit of a difference.It's, you know, if you reallygotta up the selfie game,you can get a little bit of action,but I don't think it's that great.I think it is a little too brightand sort of in your face.I want to see if the speaker works though.So it's not very good, itdoesn't sound any louderthan a phone speaker andit's way tinnier and plus,I don't like the ideathat I have to unplug itand replug it in every coupleminutes just to get it to,you know, not sound like garbage.Next, we have the one andonly wireless music spinner.This is gonna be probably not very good.(voice coming from phone)Okay, connected successfullysounds good to me.(upbeat hip-hop)That actually might be one of the worstsounding speakers I'veever heard in my life.It sounds like it's not ahigh quality bluetooth devicebut, most importantly Ican unplug it and do this.This is still cool right?Now this actually might not be that bad.This is a flashlight andthree in one camera lens.So in theory this should pretty much clipon to any smartphone.Open this guy up and it'sactually kind of nice packaging.So, I forgot we got the pink one.Allright, so I don't knowhow you get three lenses.Oh, there's actually,so, there's point fourto point 6 magnification wide angle lensor you can take it offto get a macro lens.If you want a macro selfie, or you cantake the whole thing off and get nothing.There we go, that looks about right.Wait, can I turn the light on?Oh, wow, that's actually kind of bright.So if I hit, oh I can, oh wowOkay, so you can actually crank it.Oh, shouldn't have looked at that.Alright it's not the sharpestthing in the world butyou definitely see adifference with the lightversus not, although, I don't know, maybemy selfie game isn't strong enough.Yeah, you know what, something that is notterrible, I'll take it,that's actually kind of cool.Now this is what I'mkind of excited to try.The I7S, the cable.Actually don't know whatthe full name of it is.What I do know is that this is pretty mucha straight Airpods clone.Oh wow, okay, so the firstthing to notice is that that is much,much larger than the normal Airpods case.I will say one thing,these are significantlybigger than Airpods, they'rea lot sort of chunkier.But, the actually ear tips themselves lookto be fairly similar andthey do have a buttonon each side so let's give this a try.Oh, so they both connectas independent speakers.What, wait, hang on, what happens if I tryto play music, whichone does it play out of?Oh, it plays out of the right one now.Real Airpods are in a completely differentleague, this is kind of barely usable.Assuming that I can get them to actuallypair together correctly, they just don'tsound that great, I mean, it's kind ofcool to have wirelessheadphones that aren'ton a very sort of similar form factorto Airpods, but I think I'm gonna stickto the real thing on these.
