(dramatic music)
- Hey what's up guy, welcome back to TechSmartt
for what could be Ev, a crazy crazy video.
And if you don't know what I'm talking about,
check the iCard right up there for the $99 AirPod Killer.
I'm digging it.
I made this video and I had no idea that it would pop.
That's the magic of YouTube and the magic of your guys.
So, if you're new, make sure you get subscribed.
But in this video, which is sponsored by Funcl,
they're putting that claim to the test.
Since AirPods were released
we've seen a ton of options pop up.
So much so new prices are coming up.
This one's $19 to $29, no joke.
That's the range.
It's not been confirmed yet.
That's how new this video is.
It might even be the first on this.
And hey, if it's big which it probably could be
at this price, you never know.
You saw it here first.
I got the black one, the white one,
and then the same colors.
So, the tiny ones here are called the W1s,
and then the bigger ones are just called the A1s.
And they're a little bit different.
But the coolest thing about these is the price
and what they offer.
And really if they work.
So let's check out the W1s, $19 to $29.
$49 to $69.
So let's see what it's about.
Pretty easy box.
Funcl, cool.
If you guys wanna check these out,
I'll leave it linked down below.
The basic stuff.
You get a quick start guide.
You don't really need it.
That's why you're watching this right.
And some ear tips.
It's the one thing I wish the AirPods had
because they don't fit all ears.
So here are the W1s.
Now let's check out,
I'm pretty confident in the ear tips actually.
Confident kid today.
All right, let's, whoa.
A little bit bigger of a case.
So as you can tell the W1s are smaller than the AIs.
And that's because the AIs have,
ooh, yo Ev.
Dig it?
All right, all right, all right.
It's not bad.
I do like the case.
I'm always up for something that's a little bulkier.
Because honestly I'm here to say it,
this is my 29th pair (record scratching)
of AirPods.
You guys saw it on the Instastory.
If you're not following, it's just TechSmartt.
I lose these things like it's hotcakes.
And at $159 pretty expensive.
So both the W1s and the AIs come with features
at pretty crazy prices.
And that's just what I'm about to find out.
How good it is.
So to pair up the AIs,
which actually have the Qualcomm APTX,
that's a mouth full, chip inside,
which is kind of cool because it's featured
on higher end headphones.
And with these Bluetooth earbuds or earphones,
whatever you wanna call it,
and let me know in the comments what you call 'em,
it's kind of a feature you wouldn't expect.
I mean on this price it's as easy as pulling them out.
And putting them in your ears.
And just like that, everything's connected.
So you just go into Bluetooth.
It's pretty easy to set up.
So what we're gonna do is listen to the PB Jams Playlist.
It's a playlist I update every single week on Spotify,
doing some cool new music stuff.
You wanna check that out, link down in the description.
Oh, this week we got some Steve Aoki and Blink 182.
This is the more higher end version.
Let's see how these are.
(drumming and humming inaudibly)
We're still learning the lyrics.
It's a new song.
It just came out last Friday.
Oh, mid's are really good.
High end's nice.
Okay, bass.
With the APTX chip, so what that basically means
is a lower latency pipeline.
I had to look this up.
I didn't even believe it myself.
It basically allows for a better sound to come through.
And that's on the AIs.
So, for $49 to $69,
pretty good.
Pretty good.
I like the case.
It's large enough where you're not gonna lose them.
And that's basically something you need to keep in mind.
You don't wanna be buying 29 pairs like me.
So are they the AirPod killer?
We need to test it out with the W1s.
So, these are the little guys.
And on these are something kind of cool.
So they feature 4.5 hour battery life.
And for something as tiny as this,
I'm kind of shocked.
Ev, check that out.
Can you believe that.
4.5 hours.
Dude, that is nuts.
So 4.5 hours on a full charge.
The case comes with three extra charges.
And that's the same with the AIs.
But the AIs have six hours of battery life,
with three extra charges so you have a full 24 hours.
So that's another big difference.
Better battery life on the more expensive ones.
The less expensive ones, I mean,
it all really depends how they sound.
Okay, Ev, are you getting this right here?
You see how it just tucks right in there.
What do you think?
Be honest with me.
How does it look?
And you guys let me know.
Vote up in the iCard if you think it looks cool or not.
It's an interesting feeling.
It, there's something definitely in there.
If I had to pick one, right now,
I would go jump for the AIs.
But if these things sound good,
I mean, the price, you can't really beat it.
All right, let's check out another song on the playlist.
Seriously guys, check it out.
If you like it maybe hit up on Twitter.
It's just at PBJ.
(drumming)
♪ Addicted to the low fi ♪
I mean if I was going for a jog,
I don't really think these are gonna fall
out of my ears.
And I think that's an advantage to the W1s over the AIs.
You could still run with these,
but I think these are more of your everyday bud.
You know, the more higher end version.
Wow.
They're nice.
It's like a cozy sound.
Mid's are nice.
Low end I think is better on the W1s than on the AIs.
But that's just my personal opinion.
You guys gotta check these out and let me know on Twitter.
Oh, Ev, you checking these out after this video.
(drumming)
♪ I build it to the low fi ♪
So I'll be honest, I'm kind of impressed
with the price and the sound.
Anything that works is all I really need
with a wireless earbud.
I want something that sounds good.
But something where if I lose it,
and I mean, I don't think I will with cases like this,
it's not bulky but it's nice where,
you can feel it in your pocket.
And the price, if you do lose it, it's okay.
You can replace it.
And basically for a $160 on the AirPods,
Ev,
I don't know about you but this seems like
the holiday gift I'm getting everyone.
Also both of these have Bluetooth 5.0.
And that's a first for me and any earbud that I've seen.
I haven't really checked out Bluetooth 5.0
on headphones, earphones, or really anything of that nature
yet until this video.
The one advantage that the AIs have though
is IPX5 certification.
So that means like sweat
and a little bit of water resistance, you're covered.
The W1s don't.
But that's what you get for the price.
And they come with the Funcl app.
So you can pair it up, get some songs in there,
and really go ahead, basically find a better sound.
So am I impressed?
Honestly, yes.
I think these could actually be a massive killer.
Only time will tell and I'm sure with the price,
when it is announced, and you guys know I'll let you know
on Twitter, keep it locked over there,
I think it could be a banger.
And I really like the case.
They work.
They sound really good.
And that APTX chip is nice.
So yeah, let me know in the comments
what you guys think on this video.
