5 Smartphone Gadgets for 2018 #Helpful Post

hey guys the Austin and today I'm here

with five smart phone gadgets you're

probably gonna want to take a look at

these are the Marshall mid ANC's and

huge shout out to Marshall for

sponsoring this video so one of the big

advantages of the Marshall mid ANC

headphones is active noise cancellation

something that's due to the construction

outside is very useful today so like I

says the active noise cancellation the

Bluetooth is going to be a big part of

these headphones but if we flip it over

we're also going to see some extra stuff

that well I'll take a look at in a

minute now if you'll noticed actually I

haven't spent a ton of time with

Marshall headphones now they look really

nice but generally speaking Marshall is

a company that's well more well known

for their sort of crazy amps and cool

guitar stuff actually I mean that's

right I'm not wrong they're right ooh

okay so the first thing we see is it

actually surprisingly nice carrying

pouch I can get it out of box yo that is

actually seriously legit okay so these

are going to be on your headphones as

opposed to over yours so it's going to

make them a little bit more small and

easy to carry around but how this look

and they feel really nice I mean they

even got this sort of little brass logo

here I mean you have a headphone jack

but of course these do have bluetooth

well these that you feel really nice so

if you're like me and you're using a

modern smartphone without a headphone

jack the idea that these have Bluetooth

built in is definitely going to be a

nice addition and a topic that is also

going to have apt X so some phones will

support this and essentially what it's

going to be is a higher bitrate and a

better sounding Bluetooth connection but

of course this will still will work with

pretty much any kind of Bluetooth device

that's really loud where's my active

noise cancellation whoa whoa

that's crazy

it's like I'm putting my fingers in my

ears like it just completely sucks out

all the sounds so these are using custom

40 millimeter drivers and they actually

sound more balanced than I thought so

yes it is a bit of a richer sound and

there's a fair bit of bass but it's

really not at the expense of sort of

sounding really scooped like a lot of

headphones especially more hip-hop based

headphones are um you know what I'm

talking about

these sound actually reasonably balanced

more so than I actually expected so if

you're looking for a pair of headphones

that only have good style surprisingly

really balanced sound as well as enough

noise cancellation to drown out the

construction behind me actually I would

give the mid ANC's a try take it step

outside and this is the perfect

opportunity to show some of my other

favorite accessories starting with rhino

shield

knee this will probably know them

because they've sponsored videos in the

past although they're not sponsoring

this one at all but they do make some of

my favorite cases and specifically

bumpers on any phone out right now so

this is the crash guard now this is what

I use on my own personal phone and I've

actually been using one of these for

almost a year and a half now but

essentially it doesn't give you full

protection so the back of the phone is

still going to be open however it does

cover up pretty much all of the edges so

if you drop it like this you really

don't have to worry about it this is the

way usually rocket however if you

install the backplate you can then use

the Rhino shield lenses and this is

where the camera opportunities really do

start to open up so if we move over to

the pixel 2 which still holds the crown

for the best smartphone camera in my

opinion what we can do is well just try

the lenses out so like a lot of these

systems there's going to be a wide

variety of lenses so right now I'm using

the wide angle that's not a shot you'll

be able to see just how much wider this

is versus using the standard pixel

camera the only real issue is that when

you're going this wide you are going to

see a little bit of distortion but if

you don't want to go quite so wide you

can also pick up the HD version of the

lens that's going to be a lot thicker

and something going to be quite as wide

but you're going to keep all that

sharpness there are other options you

get though including the macro lens

which just unscrews I take a super super

close-up shot of my camera here wow I

didn't actually realize I had scratched

my camera that much having a case that

supports attachable lenses really is a

super nice feature that yeah I

definitely don't use these all the time

most of the time the pixel camera by

itself is going to be totally ok but it

is cool to be able to get a little bit

of a different field of view sometimes

speaking of photos and video one of my

favourite new gadgets is going to be the

DJI Osmo 2 now they've been handheld

gimbals especially for the phone for

quite a while will make

this little bit special is that the Osmo

2 is I should come down a lot in price

this guy is not only going to cost $130

so expensive but compared to the last

generation which I think was like double

that this makes a big difference if

you're not familiar with what a gimbal

does essentially it is a handheld

stabilizer so they start recording on

the phone here what you're going to see

is no matter how much I move around it's

always going to stay stable so you can

see I can move my hand and the camera

basically stays in place and what this

allows you to do is get some really cool

shots so if I say do a little 360

surround of Ken get shot of those sweet

shoes bring it straight up what you're

getting here is a super smooth image no

matter really kind of how much you shake

it obviously you shouldn't run with

something like this but if I kind of

start walking backward it looks like the

camera is basically just going to be

completely steady so this is what

footage looks like coming from the

iPhone 10 in 4k on the Osmo 2 so even

though I'm walking in Canada's segwaying

and probably about to run into a tree

you can see the footage still looks nice

and smooth and why are you running away

from me no don't no no no see look how

smooth it is so now that we've switched

over to shooting on the iPhone with the

Osmo the next step is to make sure that

all of our devices are going to be

powered so that is where something like

this comes in and of course there are

tons of different battery banks that you

can choose from but especially when

you're going to be powering lots of

stuff like a full-fledged camera so I

like your iPhone and of course the Osmo

needs to be charged as well something

that this anchor power bank is going to

be a huge help so what I like about the

power core is it with 20,000 milliamp

hours of capacity it's going to be

plenty for our foam for stuff like the

Osmo for stuff like the camera and on

top of that we are going to be getting

two full-size USB eight ports as well as

USB C and so with that let's head back

to the studio and finish up with the

final item of this video listen Lee it's

a little bit unusual but actually can be

really helpful sometimes it's an HDMI

adapter now on iphone it's going to be

really simple it's just a very small the

Lightning adapter however on Android you

actually have a lot more options so it

works pretty much exactly like you'd

expect so you've got a full mirror on

your display so if you want you can play

a game together

however some apps such as Netflix will

support a full screen output there we go

so we have the iPhone just basically

acting as a controller we're going to be

getting that full 1080p output here

basically turning this into an Apple TV

and this might seem crazy useful but it

is nice to have one of these around in

your

if say for example you want to be able

to use your phone to output video to a

TV however on the Android side of things

it's a little bit more exciting so

thanks to the magic of USB see you can

use things like this aki USBC hub now

it's cool about this is that in addition

to be able to obviously connect your

device via USB see you get a ton of

options you can charge it through this

you get full size USB ports you're

getting Ethernet you're getting HDMI

you're even getting a micro SD as well

as a full sized SD card reader now you

should keep in mind that not all USB C

devices are created equally so generally

speaking most Android phones actually do

a pretty good job of supporting most of

the stuff on here but depending on your

device something specifically stuff like

the HDMI may or may not work so if I

plug the USB hub in with a full-sized

mouse and keyboard what I'm going to get

is not only Mouse support that is going

to be native inside Android or also

going to have keyboard support we've got

a write a new tweet and be like hey guys

this is a terribly small desktop so I'm

curious what is your favorite smartphone

gadget let me know in the comments below

and as always I'll have everything I

talked about in this video including the

Marshall mid anc headphones linked in

the description anyway guys thank you so

much for watching and I will catch you

in the next one
