Dude I bought some jlabs with ear loops after being disappointed with the expensive earbuds options from Galaxy buds to raycons I was like my wired jlabs were better so I bought ear loops Bluetooth earbuds from jlabs I'll never go to anything else
If you want wireless go with some Moondrop Space Travel it’s about 20-30 dollars depending on where you buy but it’s seriously good after my AirPods dropped in sound on one bud these have been my go to

The DJI Mic 2 has a firmware update that does really help the quality! Well worth doing, as it avoids the need to use the transmitter as you do on the Mic 1.
A note to anyone considering wired headphones for the Nintendo switch the switch charging port is designed to not allow anything to be plugged in other than the charger so they most likely will not work unless you jailbreak the console
thank you for this input! i figured as much for myself (though i also didn't know until today that usb c headphones existed, but like. yeah. that port's mostly for charging and whatever little else nintendo's advertised it for (nothing afaik)), but very good point for ppl that may not have considered it!
My husband got a new job and he wants me to switch to the new iPhone 16 pro max, any advice on deals? also I might need a good screen protector as well..
Be careful with recommending the buds 3 pro. They've had so many quakity control problems. Everywhere i look its them being broken and samsung claiming liquid damage(because it takes the item out of warranty) they never show proof of them being liquid damage and I can gaurantee mine were never near liquid. I've had samsung products for over 10 years, and they were the first time I've dealt with samsung service. They've been sent back to samsung twice in the 3 months i've had them. They've been not working for 2/3 of the time I've had them.
Can't say I've had that same experience. Had the buds 2 pro and the now the buds 3 and not a single issue. Had to get use to them don't like the new design but other than that perfection.
Just want to put this out there: it’s okay to not buy any of these items, or really any new tech. I have yet to find a compelling reason to upgrade my devices for a long time, and rely a lot more on warranties and repairs. You will be surprised how easily companies will replace your tech for free.
The AKG USB-C headphones came packaged with a Samsung S-seris phone years ago. I admit, the audio quality is not S-Tier, but B or A tier for sure. However, Who else offers brand name USB-C headphones??? I really appreciate Austin looking at those headphones and making a recommendation. It is a legit product, at a damn good price. Austin, I'm impressed with your continued tech knowledge, you're in-touch bro!!!!
tells me alot about a person when they love the switch lite, the biggest thing it tells me is they have tiny hands. I had to get rid of my do to having larger hands and it literally would cripple my hands trying to hold the extremely unergonomic design of the handheld
Real advice for headphones, if you only care about sound get a pair of hyperx cloud 2 for like 40-60 bucks and put on the spare set of pads and trust me you’ll get insane detail for the price (I own Bose QC Utra, AirPods Pro 2, and have tried beyerdynamic 770 pros)
I got so lucky and got the Focal Bathys at a Travis Scott party 😭 they are freaking amazing and I was blown away with the price after I got home!! I get compliments of them all the time from other audiophiles and the people who do own them are jealous of the exclusive colorway I got 🤯
3:25 Even if I had Elon, Bezos and Zuckerbergs money all together I still would never pay $700 for headphones. They should be made of Gold for that price.
i have headphones for half that and my god they sound so much better than anything i ever heard before still the jump from them to the focal would be a lot slimer so i get what youre saying.
I just opened the Meta Ray Bans and after only playing around for 10 minutes; im impressed. The photo I took was in a dim lit room and wow. The audio is lacking bass but it surrounds you pretty well.
I sold my switch lite. 100 bucks and went to Best Buy they had a deal where I got my switch OLED So technically I got it for $189 selling the old switch using the money from that instead of paying $280 something. In freedom dollars.
I got the buds3 pro for $60! With the sale, buds pro trade in, discount, and 5% cash back. These sound amazing... I did eq it to be less bass heavy, but it's insane.
"Just buy them" he says.. Dude. You do realize most of the stuff you've shown is way out of reach for most of us, right? 😅 Great video, but I'd rather not use it as a guide for buying tech 'cause I appreciate having enough money to be able to buy food.
Just gotta say I ordered the Sennheiser pc38x headset based on one of your videos last year and they are the best gaming headset I have ever used, audio wise and microphone
At least you were honest about the sponsorship. I just watched another video from someone and they literally were doing an ad for these products. The deals sucked. They were not actually black friday deals.
I like Anker but their 150W charger (my go to) always gives me a slow charge warning on my Dell 14" work laptop. Even the 250W battery bank does. It's frustrating. But I still have those plus another power bank, a desktop charger, and some very old chargers. Wish they would get their efficiency over 80%.
Great content, as always! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
i have that gameboy thing and it was so fucking expensive to get it in europe but i love it, best gameboying i ever done but its a niche product for enthusiast that i cant recommend to regular folks, also the d-pad is a bit iffy.
Samsung Galaxy buds Fe are great for the price right know for black Friday cyber Monday you can get from Samsung directly for $40 with trade in of any wired or wireless earbuds any condition can't beat for price
Right, my Ifixit pro tech tool kit is still going strong plus they have the best lifetime warranty. Had to replace 2 bits and the flex extension and they replaced them no questions asked.
The Focals; No. Nothing Focal is a good buy, honestly. So, if you want to try something that actuall sounds great in the same price range, try Dali's efforts. They completely blew me away for Bluetooth headphones.
I would never buy a ps5 digital that can't be upgraded to a disc version. You can offset that $100 cost by just finding 2-3 games on sale which would be double the price on the digital store.
steam deck is already worse Than ROG ally when in native linux, and windows support for it is awful, so no. it is not fast or similar to a ROG ally in windows, Linus tech tips made a video on this topic if you want to watch that (windows on steam deck)
Instead of getting random retro tech, headphones and other useless random junk that your team end up keeping.. why not get view suggestions on items were interested in getting , tell us if it's actually good. I liked the first couple of wish videos you did but it's become your whole identity now.
2:33 Recommending Buds for $175,with a manufacturing defect? Does it mean that in the next vidoe you will be recommending using a Galaxy Note 7 as a daily driver?
Using superlux hd661 or 662 i think for like 30€ and i think sound awesome, also that adjustable headband, anyway, with extra ear cussion or what its called and 2 cables one shorter, for like i dont know ps5 or pc etc. and one long for hifi, i guess anyway sure not wireless, but big i think noise cancelation could be better but nothing that bad, for 30€ is just great. Sound great, look great and the packaging is like with a higher class HPs, not in 30 price range, like i bought a pioneer one in that price range and it came in clear plastic package looked like shit. And i dont except anything more from a cheap hp, but again this superlux is feels more premiium than it should. Skeptical for sure when ordering but its better then i hoped for. FOr me anyway. 100€ and more for hps is just overkill. for me. But i guess might be worth it if u need better sound. But i try to find good sounding products in as cheap as i dare.
"They're $175 bucks, just buy them." As i sit here with my $20 Jlabs
Jlab minis are great if anyone wants tiny earbuds
They're good though.
Dude jlab headphones are awesome, especially for the price! Jlab Family RISE UP!!! lol
Dude I bought some jlabs with ear loops after being disappointed with the expensive earbuds options from Galaxy buds to raycons I was like my wired jlabs were better so I bought ear loops Bluetooth earbuds from jlabs I'll never go to anything else

Yeah yeah, stuff Austin likes
But what I want to see is what the whole team of regulars like Kinzie or matt pick as their fave items
ooh yeah that would also bring a great variety! maybe a few different tech items from each person

Misinformation, you can get audio through the switch usb c port
My husband got a new job and he wants me to switch to the new iPhone 16 pro max, any advice on deals? also I might need a good screen protector as well..
Ma'am go for the Vionentus screen protectors, not a single scratch on my 16 pro max
Thank you I appreciate it, and how long does it take to arrive to the US?
Get a 15 pro max, the only difference between the two is the capture button, and we know the 15 pros battery degration is very good
Getting the latest IPhone is a scam.. Get a 15 pro max. I usually upgrade my phone every 3 years or so

It looks like there are some imposters out there as well.
I have the Buds 3 Pro and never had a single problem ever. Seems like it is a user error to me

Grateful for the few days you might actually get off?

03:24 reassuring himself his purchase of $700 OK headphones wasn't stupid. 😅
Has Austin not found out about the switch lite OLED mod.
tells me alot about a person when they love the switch lite, the biggest thing it tells me is they have tiny hands. I had to get rid of my do to having larger hands and it literally would cripple my hands trying to hold the extremely unergonomic design of the handheld
13:48 you mean like regular transition lenses!? 🤯 Woah!!

Has Austin done a full video explanation for his Switch Lite Fanboying? No offense, I'd just be curious as to the reasoning.
For audio I will recommend you the Letshuoer S08 IEMs and the Kali LP-UNF studio monitors. Both of these have amazing sound.
You can get a brand new ps5 slim digital for $375 at BB, Target & Walmart.
Walmart has the Ps5 Slim on sale for $370 btw ❤
3:25 Even if I had Elon, Bezos and Zuckerbergs money all together I still would never pay $700 for headphones. They should be made of Gold for that price.

This is probably my favorite recent video from this channel! Would love to see more stuff like this!
Austin, DJI is facing a ban by US Congress for their drones. It’s insane. Could use more tech tubers discussing it and pushing back
I just opened the Meta Ray Bans and after only playing around for 10 minutes; im impressed. The photo I took was in a dim lit room and wow. The audio is lacking bass but it surrounds you pretty well.
This not even Black Friday deals
I sold my switch lite. 100 bucks and went to Best Buy they had a deal where I got my switch OLED So technically I got it for $189 selling the old switch using the money from that instead of paying $280 something. In freedom dollars.
I don't like the fact that phone manufacturers removed the jack to pretty much hope you would just buy their wireless ones every couple of years.
"the headphone jack is gone" maybe if you only stick with the big three
2:05 You should clean all the ear wax off your earbuds before you film the B-roll.
Austin needs a comment section mod
Maybe you should give that idea to youtube since there is not comment section admin bot. That's only for live chat.
You didnt even go into black friday deals you just talked about tech u like and provided spnsor links wth
dont get the akg earphones get the KZ ZSN Pro X
okay another guess on what is on Austins wrist... Tag Heur Carerra.
For gaming, you should’ve also talked about the Meta Quest 3s
I got the buds3 pro for $60! With the sale, buds pro trade in, discount, and 5% cash back. These sound amazing... I did eq it to be less bass heavy, but it's insane.
Did he really just recommend a $700 pair of no name headphones over anything sennheiser 😳🤣 and just because it has a USB c port 🙄
Lol caling Focal noname. the reasoning was shit i agree on that but Focal is a massive brand for proper audio.
Can confirm, the Focal Bathys do sound great, feel AMAZING in the hand and work like you want them to, unlike the Momentum 3.
"Just buy them" he says.. Dude. You do realize most of the stuff you've shown is way out of reach for most of us, right? 😅
Great video, but I'd rather not use it as a guide for buying tech 'cause I appreciate having enough money to be able to buy food.

12:04 8gb ram and non upgradable storage?! yeah no.
Have you seen the SUPER5 OLED for the Switch Lite?
3:23 my trypophobia is TRIGGERED

At least you were honest about the sponsorship. I just watched another video from someone and they literally were doing an ad for these products. The deals sucked. They were not actually black friday deals.
i feel like the raybands could lead to privacy issues such as a public bathroom, due to the camera
I would suggest tapping into the used market more, I’ve been able to seriously stretch the budget especially with something like a laptop.
I like Anker but their 150W charger (my go to) always gives me a slow charge warning on my Dell 14" work laptop. Even the 250W battery bank does. It's frustrating. But I still have those plus another power bank, a desktop charger, and some very old chargers. Wish they would get their efficiency over 80%.
Bruh, I barely even spent 200 on my pc monitor lol aint a snowballs chance in hell i'm gonna be able to justify 200 for a pair of fuckin headphones 🤣

1:02 Austin did nobody told you about ZS IEMs?
Odin 2 is an s23 for 299$. The value to performance is unbeatable and will be the goat for at least another year.
Those glasses are fucking creepy dude, I ain't gonna lie. That gameboy thing looks sick though!
i have that gameboy thing and it was so fucking expensive to get it in europe but i love it, best gameboying i ever done but its a niche product for enthusiast that i cant recommend to regular folks, also the d-pad is a bit iffy.
AirPods Pro is way better than Samsungs and on sale for $153

I bought a digital slum ps5 off Walmart that was luke 379? I think idk if it's still on sale but it was on Monday
I just got the meta raybans today. Crazy
Everytime you said "terrific" I felt like you were saying that is horrible lol Im not a native speaker
absolutely understandable, from a native speaker. sometimes i wonder how we got there 😂
I learned not to trust Austin with audio when he said he liked the Samsung beans.

Absolutely no, windows on the deck is decent but honestly is a downgrade.

Those akg headphones they don't even make nomore. They come with the s8,S9 and S10 and they was 100 dollars

I just want to say that this video was refreshing, it's nice to have purely positive videos 💙
What happened to your Sony buds.
2:07 could have cleaned your ear wax out of the headphone lol.
Hey Austin, I’m curious I’ve been watching your channel for years now and why don’t you do drone reviews like dji drones?
