The Best Tech Under $50 - May 2016 #Helpful Post

hey guys johnathan here back with a

fresh episode of the best tech on her 15

we're kicking it off with some wood

before we get going I first want to

commend you for your continued

destruction of that like button if you

want to keep those legs coming to skin

shell follow jumping back to the wood

this is a really neat bamboo charging

dock which is cool for a few different

reasons the first of which being the

utilization of magnets so once you place

the top housing down the magnets lock it

down making it nice and secure secondly

are the cutouts which are there with the

intent of place and a Bluetooth speaker

inside which then allows the sound to

come through for reference and for your

viewing pleasure Homer has taken the

place of a Bluetooth speaker so you can

go to visualize the sound coming out

magical and lastly what I like about

this is flexibility so you can see

there's space for a USB hub that you can

buy as a bundle but you can also mix and

match so whether you need more USB ports

or you just want to save a little cash

this particular one was only around 10

bucks which will save you more than 15

compared to the bundle following that

may go down in the tech under 50 Hall of

Fame because there definitely when my

favorite pics ever these are the

amplified by a duo which are stereo

speakers but the kicker is they're

wireless so these ship in a pair what's

cool is you can use them either

independently a single Bluetooth

speakers or use them in unison together

getting stereo left and right wireless

audio now to reiterate that is really

cool because you're not getting a single

audio source replicated over a second

speaker rather two independent channels

so in turn if you hate wires these are

perfect for a super clean minimal setup

dealing downside as you are going to

have to charge them at some point

instead of having them plugged into a

constant power source but overall that

very well may be worth the price of

having a set up as clean and more

importantly they sound fantastic for the

price so following that you guys know I

am a huge fan of docking setup so

therefore I'm constantly fascinated by

different docking stands and this

particular one dubbed the eat-in for

Mike UNIX is just about perfect for

starters it's made from solid aluminum

not only is it built like a tank it also

looks phenomenal the attention to detail

is strong with this one what makes this

unique though and stand out a bit from

the crowd is how easy it is to adjust

with this there is no need to mess

around with different pieces or swap out

parts you simply adjust your desired

width lock it down and you are good to

go so whether you deal with different

size laptops in your house

or you simply just want the peace of

mind I'm not worrying about having to

change this out if you upgrade computer

this is a solid choice so next up is

going to stop the music because we are

testing out a USB mic and in particular

this is the CA D u3 7 this thing

surprised the hell out of me with how it

sounded for under 50 bucks and keep in

mind if you're comparing the prior audio

my normal microphone is about 20 times

the price of this guy on top of that for

reference this is the built-in MacBook

Pro microphone and oh my god I'm sorry

and what I appreciate with this guy is

that it's a complete package you get the

mic stand the USB cable it's flexible so

you're going to be able to angle it at

just to write access to ensure optimal

sound quality and then things like a 10

decibel padding the low-pass filter are

a super nice touch last up is the up a

bluetooth outlet speaker by acoustic

research this is one of those things

where I was going down one of my usual

Amazon rabbit holes

I found it my initial reaction was why

does this thing exist with the more and

more I thought about it this thing is

really practical so it works by of

course plugging into your outlet but

what's sweet is not only do you get an

AC pass-through but you also get a 2.1

at fast charging USB port as well so in

turn this is kind of the perfect kitchen

accessory because one you're not gonna

have to worry about charging the speaker

and two you have a USB charging port

integrated right smack in there now the

only thing to point out is that this is

25 bucks so it's not gonna fill your

entire room with sound but it's gonna do

a much better job than your tablet

speakers or your built-in phone speakers

and it's a really quick and convenient

way to eat of play music or use it for

phone calls aside from that thank you

availability and a ton of those slick

rap codes are linked down below if you
