The Future of Gaming and Tech: A Hands-On Review of the Latest Devices
We're putting the latest devices to the test, from earbuds that promise to work with gaming consoles to a Stream Deck that's designed specifically for creatives. We'll dive into each device, exploring its features, pros, and cons.
First up, we've got the earbuds from our friend who puts words together in a way that looks like this. They're designed to look like they belong in a gamer's world, with a sleek design that's sure to turn heads. The audio quality is decent, but it's not going to blow your mind - and at $130, it's definitely a pricey option.
But what really caught our attention was the promise of compatibility with gaming consoles. We're talking Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch - if these earbuds can make that work, we're all in. The audio quality isn't super crazy, but there's something about these earbuds that feels like it could be a game-changer.
We also got our hands on the Stream Deck from Zen Labs. This thing is designed specifically for creatives, with a focus on shortcuts and editing functions. It's got all sorts of bells and whistles, including a touch wheel and customizable keys. We're not entirely sure how it'll work in the world of video editing, but it's definitely an interesting idea.
One of the coolest features of the Stream Deck is its ability to map different commands to specific actions. Want to quickly switch between camera angles? Done. Want to jump straight into post-production mode? Easy peasy. The design is sleek and compact, making it easy to take on the go - and the included travel case ensures that you can keep it safe and secure.
We also got a chance to try out the Spigen case for the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This thing is built like a tank, with a sturdy metal design that looks like it could withstand anything life throws at it. The charging capabilities are top-notch, with fast charging and wireless charging options available. And as an added bonus, it comes with a fast charger and wireless charger - because why not?
But the real pièce de résistance is the Marquez-designed case for our friend's phone. This thing is a work of art, with a sleek matte black design that's sure to turn heads. The red accents are a nice touch, giving it a pop of color that sets it apart from the crowd.
We also got a chance to try out some cases from the Gun (Astria) - but we'll spare you the details on that one, folks. Let's just say it's... interesting. And finally, we've got the Spigen wireless charger and fast charger combo, which is basically a no-brainer at this point.
As for the prices, here's what we can expect: $100 for the earbuds (and they're already overpriced), $52 for the fast charger, and who knows how much for the cases. But hey - when you've got options like these on the table, it's hard not to get excited.
And finally, we've got some bonus goodies from our friend Carl. He gave us a couple of Amazon gift cards, because why not? They're always welcome in our book. So there you have it, folks - that's our take on the latest and greatest in gaming and tech. Let us know what you think in the comments!

an extra pouch in the back you can throw like your cables in here your vita here your games and this the look is just super clean and i also got my hands on this guy over here this is for the analog pocket so the analog pocket has a pretty horrible case the one that they make it's more so for like to be a display than it is to really travel with uh and this is just an amazing option to use for it it's got like this nice soft material in there it's like a little fuzzy and furry material and you got a spot of course for any cables that you might want to bring around with you or maybe games this is something i've been waiting for i had to wait for massive tech unboxing to open this up and it's been killing me you jealous 2023 man listen sony please you see what the switch is doing get back in the game okay this is one that you got carl carl adding to the mass attack unboxing the stem player in this is the box kanye right this is just a there's a box i mean did you see the site it's pretty wild how much was this carl okay so this is the stem player and this is i guess the usbc cable literally no instructions i think you place on put songs on it or something and then you can take out different elements of the song while it plays so i have no idea there are no instructions jay oh does it it comes with donda on it so let's see does it come with like is it charged and it's got a

that's kind of cool you know instead of just having that black puck sitting at your uh tv stand why not do it up make it look like a little gaming console i like this thinking jay what else we got in here for the air yeah jay's on his retro tip right now man oh this is cool i like that what else we got in this goody bag oh an apple watch charging stand okay actually you got it okay let's see it let's see here okay that's cool i like that mmm jay coming with the hee for number 45 okay so we got a few things in here you guys i want to go for the big one this is actually from amazon this is the echo show 15. it's a really big screen and it kind of looks like a picture frame but amazon figures hey maybe you can post this up somewhere you know i'm all i'm a huge fan of digital photo frames so you can pretty much use this as one but man 15 inches arie would you want this in the kitchen yeah is it echo show 15 yeah i can see my recipes even better my only thing is if you mount this you're gonna have the cable dangling so something to consider does it come with a stand i feel like it has to come with a stand right is that an optional accessory the stand for this that's kind of whack all right echo show 15 we'll try it out all right so over here we've got this uh we got these gaming earbuds now i don't know how legit these are i saw them on amazon i'm like okay they look kind of cool um but they say supposed to be able to work with gaming consoles so i want to figure out how to make that happen but this one you know first pair earbuds that i heard can actually work with them so you can oh okay iron man it's kind of dope we've got the earbuds here now these earbuds look super techy and i look like i'm from the future i look like a gamer it looks cool you didn't say that with much confidence let's see how this audio sounds the audio quality isn't super crazy i mean it looks really cool audio quality if it sounds a little bit muddy so i'm not sure if this is something i'm going to want to keep but i will try and get this paired up to like i said those gaming consoles uh if i can get it working with like my xbox or something play some apex with this that could be dope um but i don't know if i'd want to use this for music it looks super cool though i mean it looks the part this looks awesome but it's expensive i think it's like 100 bucks or something so yeah this is this was 130. it was a high price tag i'm gonna see how it works with the gaming consoles um but for now we'll see looks good though all right so we've also got something from zen's labs i who puts words together that look like this i don't know so kind of like what we've seen with the elgato uh what is the stream deck so kind of like that um but this is more so geared towards creatives so if you want you can map different shortcuts to editing functions so this is it you've got all of your keys here to help with your editing it's got like this overlead screen and you can see right here you've got all the commands that you want to do you've got the wheel i don't know how this works in the video editing world but um it'll be interesting to try and it comes with a travel case so if you want to you know take this on the go with you maybe you've gotten really used to using it you can take this with you maybe use it with your macbook or something boom all right you guys gotta let me know oh this is really thin so let's see this is a u-green this is a fast charger okay so this has three usb it's a 100 watt fast charger four ports so this can charge up like the new macbooks and all that so we've got three usb type-c ports and a usb-a this is a pretty compact design though for 100 watts i use it as a testy one and that has like the external power cable and everything just you plug right in and just plug it into the usb ports all right so marquez got back to me he actually gave me the go ahead to take a look and see so we can show you guys i mean it's here i knew he would i'm not gonna mess around with his stuff too much i was gonna say like keep it nice so it's definitely matte black wow and red i definitely see the marquez vibes from this the matte black with the red okay so we got one more here two more actually oh all right y'all this is another gun though i'm not even gonna bore you guys uh just just for the folks interested i'll show you what it is but we won't stay on this purple right gundam astria it's a metal build you know a little something something it's already built so you don't even have to worry about it and this last one is from spigen so we got some cases so these are for the galaxy s22 ultra and they also send over their fast charger and they also send over their wireless charger here as well oh there's another s 22s right s22 s22 plus you guys know how i feel about spigen so i have these linked down below of course but yeah lots of options here all right you guys that about wraps it up it's quite a bit of stuff it's been a

they're competitors the echo show five i mean 15. carl anybody's picking their own stuff kevin all right so the charger yeah how could that cost that's a good question because that's contingent on whether it's not expected that charger is 52 dollars that's pretty good actually okay so that about wraps it up guys hopefully you enjoyed it if you did be the cool guy girl that gives the video a
