Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Tech You Can ACTUALLY Afford. Legitimately!”.
Thanks to coinbase for sponsoring this portion of the video, what’s going on guys your average consumer – and you said you wanted to see more videos like this, so here we are today we’re going to be checking out some more tech you can actually afford legitimately, but before We get into it, we got ta, give a huge shout out to coinbase for sponsoring this portion of the video. So cryptocurrency is all over the news these days and seems like it would be super exciting to get into, and so i get a lot of friends and family who reach out and ask judd. How do i get into it and i tell them hey go. Do your research basically means i’m not an expert at it just yet, but coinbase was actually cool enough to partner with me to spread the word about their initiative. Coinbase earn for those of you who aren’t familiar with coinbase they’re, the primary platform for buying selling earning and learning about cryptocurrency. Basically, you sign up with coinbase and start educational videos and reading short articles about various cryptocurrencies. The courses teach you about what they are and how they work.
Then you take a short quiz and here’s the fun part. Every time you answer a question correctly: you earn an actual cryptocurrency directly into your coinbase account. I love that coinbase earn offers actual videos and articles to educate and encourage people to give cryptocurrency a try and coinbase does make it worthwhile so you’re learning and earning cryptocurrency. At the same time, if you’re interested i’m partnering with coinbase to give away 10 worth of bitcoin to viewers who sign up using my code in the description, you don’t need to buy any cryptocurrency to get started.
All you have to do is sign up for coinbase.com. Slash your average consumer and verify your id so again huge shout out to coinbase for sponsoring this portion of the video, but now guys it’s time to check out this affordable tag now just a disclaimer for you guys at the time of shooting this video. Everything is at an affordable price. I know last time we shot a video and then prices went up.
I’M sorry, you guys, but as of right now, to my knowledge, these are cheaper, so we’re going to start off with this guy right here. These are the amazon echo buds. This is the second generation. I believe right now, they’re going for about 50 bucks, which is actually like half off the original price, uh, so definitely worth picking up, because you get access to a solid pair of earbuds with alexa features built into it.
I don’t know about you guys, but i rely on my smart assistant a lot so like asking about the weather random questions. How long your commute might be. You can ask all those crazy questions to the smart assistant.
Alexa can answer them uh for the most part. She can answer them not as good as you know, google, but it definitely gets the job done, and you can just straight up. Ask her to play music. Make calls all that good stuff.
I feel like you’d, get way more capabilities with these than compared to something like siri. We all know how siri does you know? Sometimes it’s pretty hit or miss uh. You get a lot more hit with than you will with siri.
Now the only thing that’s kind of weird is that you know it’s a so. If you ask it to play music like play, some drake he’s gon na use amazon music. I don’t know if everybody’s using amazon music but it’ll still play you know, still play it. 50, bucks, i think it’s solid.
It actually sounds pretty decent, not a bass, heavy pair of earbuds pretty solid base, but you do still get active noise, cancelling and, of course, transparency mode. So you got that pass-through and i don’t think they look too bad. I think they look pretty solid. You get touch controls.
You can play and pause your music when you take it out your ears. It’S got those sensors. How much 50 bucks right now. Typically, though it is, i think, like 120., so jump on it.
You guys, because you know these sales run out, is it in july, yes july. When is prime day prime day 2022 will take place in july. Hey all right, but you see how dope that is to just be able to ask this rent. Obviously it’s amazon related.
So it makes sense, but you can ask it any kind of question and boom it. Does it just listen to that wake word and you get access to which i think is pretty dope. So 50 bucks. This is a no-brainer you guys, you got to jump on it after using it for a little bit, even at 120 bucks. I think it’s solid. If you have a smart home that has built into it.
I would absolutely recommend this 50 for sure 120 worth considering. Absolutely so this definitely goodbye. I think they also come in black. So if you don’t like the lighter color, you can always go that way. Um, but now it’s time to talk about something else that i oh you know what we got something else: amazon related.
Let’S, just let’s just jump into it, this is the echo auto. So when i first heard about it, i was just like. What’S the point really, but it’s actually really cool for the same reasons that this is cool having access to it is really beneficial and, of course, having it in your car, where you need those hands free, it’s a pretty big game changer. Now i think it’s pretty awesome because you can have play music, but it’s also just cool to turn your entire car into this smart home hub as well, so like, let’s say, you’re, home or you’re on your way home you’re, like you know what bring the temperature Down to xyz, whatever you feel comfortable with you’ve got that kind of access and controls right from within your car, and all the things that you would want to control within your car send a message you can do all that without having to touch anything. It connects to your phone connects to your speakers on your car, and then it starts working and it only costs about 50 bucks.
There’S a lot of benefit, having integrated into a piece of tech and having it integrated into your car. It just feels like it’s like living in the future stuff. I feel, like we’ve, been doing a lot of talking about pixel lately, because we actually just made a course about integrating into your home or google assistant. If you guys are interested in learning how to tech out your space, create your own smart home, like you’ve, seen in some of my videos, i’ve got a full-blown course that walks you step by step on how to do that.
If you guys are interested i’ll, have links or more information down below in the description, listen, it is legit, so we’ll of course, have some links down below. I promise i’ll show you the best way to take advantage of something that has built into it. Please sign up, but all jokes aside, guys, let’s actually move on to the next thing right here: we’ve got a smart scale from wise. You’Ve probably seen me talk about wise cameras in the past.
They make pretty affordable tech that works the way you would want more expensive tech to work. So this is a smart scale. I remember the days ahri when we used to use. Was it the like fitbit aria or something we bought this like really expensive scale in the past, that tracked all kinds of information like your weight, your body, fat and all that information was accessible right within an app a few years later were plenty of years later.
We now have all of those features built into a scale that only costs 26 bucks. I mean come on, but this thing is legit, it’s accurate. It connects through bluetooth, it tracks all kinds of information, and you can actually see charts on your trajectory all that kind of stuff, so you can see trends in your weight. I think this is really cool, especially for somebody like me. I’Ve been trying to go to the gym, trying to bulk up, listen kevin. I haven’t been working out in a while. I’Ve been doing teachable bit but also track some other stuff, so you can have baby and pet mode. So if you just want to weigh your baby, but you don’t want that to be as a part of your tracking, you can just throw it into that measure.
Your stuff – and you know it doesn’t go towards your profile. You can even measure luggage. It’S got a luggage mode right and make sure you don’t go over how many scales you can buy with that just say it. So i think this is like a sleeper piece of tech.
If you’re buying a scale like you just need a new scale, this is the price you’d pay for a normal scale. I feel like and might as well have smart features built into it. Wise make some pretty legit tech, and this is one you should absolutely take a look into now. The next thing i’ve got is something for the desk setup. So what we’ve got right here is from tech, and this is a power strip. We just had a conversation about. This is more like a cube, but it’s supposed to be a power strip and it does what the name implies. You can plug things into here, but what’s nice is that you can actually mount it to the desk or just have it sit on top uh? It gives you access to, let’s see here, three different ac outlets and also three usb a ports as well as a usb type-c port. So you can go ahead and charge pretty much anything you’d like now.
I like this, because not only is it super functional in terms of being able to be placed just about anywhere, but it doesn’t take up a lot of space and that kind of versatility is really useful. If you want to keep a nice clean desk set up. But if you want to have this on the side of your desk or even underneath it where it’s completely out of sight, you can have all your cables running right to it and it can be the only cable that goes to the outlet really really useful.
I, like the design i like having that kind of functionality uh and the fact that you don’t need to have any extra chargers or ports around your desk setup. That could be like the single one. I think that’s pretty cool, it’s the same price as the scale. So 26 bucks 26.99, not too bad i’d pay for that.
I did pay for that, but that about wraps it up for this video guys. Hopefully you enjoyed it as of right now, as i’m shooting this video. You can pretty much get everything we talked about today for under 150 bucks, which would be a pretty good haul honestly, but let me know what you guys think: are there also categories that you guys want to see us cover like? Do you want us to find really good alternatives? To i don’t know tvs, you said tvs yeah. We always do tvs. Today’S, like the first time we didn’t do a tv in this segment. So let us know if there are certain categories you guys want to find really inexpensive tech, for, let me know with a comment i’ll catch you guys for the next one. So then it’s your average consumer peace, .
