That's much better than what you usually throw on the table.

Hello and welcome to a very special edition of Mystery Tech,

featuring money, because yes,

I actually get to buy my own things this time.

Thanks, Ken.

The rules are very simple.

I have a $200 budget to order things

from a little site called Wish.

Now, a little stipulation

is I have to use this blitz-buy thing,

so as soon as I hit this button,

a 10-minute timer will start.

How many items to I get?

20, okay.

All right, I've unlocked 20 products.

Let's see what we got.

Well, the first thing is the, what is this, a smartwatch?

I mean, that seems reasonable.

This actually looks good, right?

- [Matt] You need that.

- All right.

What the, what are these sneakers?

Yo.

- [Matt] Get some sneakers.

- Some red fashion sneakers?

Yeah, yeah, I'm about that.

There's an 11 inch 4G network Android large-screen tablet

for $75.

I'm gettin' red because why not.

Oh God, I've already spent $145.

Oh.

Man, I feel like I've already got everything cool.

- [Ken] Well, now you're forced to buy

things that are not cool.

Welcome to Mystery Tech.

- What if I just cheat and go into normal Wish

and look for other stuff that's cool?

All right, I'm just gonna cheat.

Oh, a 4GB free classic games thing?

Yeah, yeah, okay.

All right.

Oh what the, oh it's a Vita.

Oh wait, no I want this one.

Oh look, a Game Boy.

Yo, I wanna Game Boy.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, hook me up.

$14?

Look, you can buy fake money.

There's 100 $100 bills for $1.

I mean, let's be real,

this stuff all looks basically like hot garbage.

Ooh, hello.

We could get a Huawei SD card,

apparently 256GB for $3.

I don't see how we can go wrong here.

- [Ken] Get definitely two of those.

- Ah, it's a corset for a guy, aight.

Aight.

Yo, fake Joy-Cons?

Dude, these Joy-Cons are like double the size.

I am absolute buying them.

Wait, for Wii U, for Switch,

or for Switch Precision Edition?

- [Ken] What's a Switch Precision Edition?

- [Austin] I dunno, I guess we're about to find out.

It's $33.

There's also fake Pro controller, should we do that?

- [Ken] Yeah, yes.

- Mean, it looks kinda like it.

So that, my friends, is everything we need from Wish.

So I guess now we're just gonna have wait, like,

three months for this stuff to show up

and see if it's any good.

I don't think it will be, though.

(weird ululating)

- [Matt] Three months later.

- Okay, so it has been a couple months

and we finally have all of our Wish items

as well as a much less full-featured facial hair.

So let's see what garbage town we have to deal with.

It's been so long I've actually forgotten

what we ordered, at this point.

Oh yeah, this stupid thing.

Oh, it came with an adapter?

Aight.

So this is our Huawei 256GB microSD card,

which cost like, how much was it?

- [Ken] $5.75.

- Oh yeah.

So less than $6.

Now, I'm incredibly suspicious

that this is actually a 256GB card.

It is almost certainly not a Huawei microSD card either,

judging by the generic memory card box.

Some of the listed capacity

is used for formatting and other functions

and is not available for storage.

Something tells me that by some

is going to be like, 240 of the 256GB.

I believe Linus did a video

showing how some of the SD cards

that seem to have a lot of capacity

are actually fake and instead,

when you start to fill them up,

they delete old files.

So I'm going to try to transfer a bunch of footage over

and see if it actually will work.

So I pull up properties, it shows as a 249GB drive.

I mean, that actually would be technically correct.

That's strange.

Is this actually real?

Dude, it's at 65KB a second right now.

I don't think I have the patience for this.

Pssh.

That had way more bounce than I thought.

Oh, it's the stupid fake Joy-Cons.

You know that Wish sponsors the Lakers?

Literally the only logo on Lakers jerseys is Wish.

I mean, at first glance you might be forgiven

for thinking that these are real Joy-Cons,

but they feel like they're almost twice as big.

Lemme grab a real set of Joy-Cons.

So for comparison, this is what a legit Joy-Con looks like.

Now, it's roughly the same sorta shape,

although on the back,

you can see that there's a little bit of a ridge,

but it's just way bigger.

Like, way bigger.

(laughs)

My Switch is now just like, an inch wider.

(laughs)

Oh, it worked.

Ayyy, look at that.

It shows up as two actual, real Joy-Cons.

So if I attach these,

it actually will not charge them, though,

so I can use it as like a normal, wired Joy-Con,

but it's still actually connected via Bluetooth.

So it will drain the battery like this.

Dude, this is actually really not that bad.

I mean, the buttons don't feel quite as nice

and I wish they actually would charge,

but like, I mean like, I'm not doing very well here, but.

Now, I will say one thing, the fact that they have

this little lip on the outside,

which, even though they're bigger,

they actually kinda fit better in my hands

The standard Joy-Cons, they're fine,

but I kinda feel like I have a little bit

of a claw grip sometimes,

whereas this feels a little bit better,

I'm not gonna lie.

It still feels cheap, but not bad.

Aha.

So the next part, which is probably a little less weird,

is these Nintendo Switch Pro controller,

or the Pro controller for N Switch,

because obviously it's not a Nintendo product.

I mean, at first glance this looks exactly

like a standard Pro controller.

This looks straight up like they just used

the original mold for this.

It literally, on the back, says support.nintendo.com.

I think they actually took a legit mold

of the real Pro controller

and just removed the word Nintendo here,

'cause that's exactly where Nintendo would be.

It says, support Germany for Nintendo.

I mean, this is just a Pro controller.

(laughs)

The buttons feel the same, the sticks feel the same.

Actually, hang on a second.

Can I change my smart steering?

Okay.

Dude, it even has the gyroscope.

If you feel a little bit uncomfortable

buying something which is very, very obviously a knockoff,

I totally understand why you wouldn't wanna get this,

but this is, as far as I can tell,

straight-up a Pro controller.

Now, maybe it'll break at some point,

maybe there's a train outside

that's gonna sort of step on my line,

but like, this is legit just a Pro controller

that someone just stripped off the Nintendo badge

and is selling it for like, half the price.

Oh, god.

The fake money.

Okay, does this look real on camera right now?

'Cause this is about the fakest thing I've ever seen.

It's mostly just incredibly blurry.

Like, it looks like if you printed this yourself

on a printer from 1999,

that's what it looks like.

For fake money, it doesn't say fake money anywhere.

There's no like, for prop, comedy use only or anything,

there's literally just a little bit

of Chinese writing on the back

and that's it.

This actually looks like it's probably illegal.

Wait, is this illegal?

I think this is, oh.

These things bounce so weirdly, right?

All right, we'll just put my fake money out of the way.

I will say one thing, this is very, very well packaged.

Oh, it's the fake iPad, excellent.

Oh wait, no it's not an iPad, is it?

It kinda looks like one from the front.

Actually, well, it looks like one from all angles.

I mean, not gonna lie.

This is like, not the worst fake iPad I've ever seen.

I mean, they've kinda got like the little notch here.

That actually does seem to be real metal.

That screen does not look good, though

And this is definitely a fake button.

That doesn't do anything.

I dunno, I think if you show this to Grandma,

she'd probably think you had an iPad

and not a $52 tablet that's garbage-town, that's dead also.

I'm not gonna lie,

so far we've actually been doing pretty well.

There have definitely been some busts,

but things like the Switch controller seems cool,

the iPad, if it actually wants to turn on,

seems maybe okay.

Maybe.

Maybe.

Oh, all right.

In case you're curious, this is not an actual iPad.

- [Ken] Is that a headphone jack in the side?

- Oh yeah, (laughs), the headphone jack is on the side.

All right.

Android 8.1?

What?

Really?

That's actually not that bad.

Is this actually gonna be decent?

Like, I really did not think this was gonna be good,

but like, it actually doesn't seem like the worst thing

I've ever tried, especially for $50.

Although I guess, for $50,

you could get like, a Fire tablet.

Whoa, hey.

Update on this guy.

It has now magically jumped up to 19MB per second

on the transfer.

We're actually, is it working

or did it just like, fail over into the fake version

where it's deleting my old files?

Now I'm suddenly getting a little bit uncomfortable

with the idea that I just plugged a random microSD card

into my computer.

Maybe I shouldn't have done that.

That coulda been a really bad idea, actually.

- [Ken] I mean, it's a Huawei one, so what's the--

- (laughs)

- [Ken] What's the harm in that?

- That frame rate is really not good.

But 480p, come on man?

Is that the best you can do in 480p?

That ain't it.

So not great for video.

It sounds bad and it runs videos

at like, 12 frames per second.

Uh, maybe just buy a Fire HD 7, or anything else.
