In this video, I dive into the unexpected world of tech products available on SHEIN, testing everything from knockoff gaming consoles to bizarre phone cases. Along the way, I encounter some truly head-scratching items, like "AirPods" with a screen and a game console power bank combo. While most products fell short of expectations, there were a few surprising finds that might just be worth your time.

@MajoraEXP 17 күн бұрын

To be fair in normal English pronunciation, that is correct. It's like blue jeans, just swap the j for an s and remove the plural s. It's not how you say it but by standard grammatical rules it's right. That's why AI pronounces alot of things weird. Edit: it is actually right, here is what claude 3.5 says: The brand name "Shein" is typically pronounced as "SHEE-in" or "SHE-in." Here's a breakdown of the pronunciation: The first syllable "She" is pronounced like the English pronoun "she" The second syllable "in" is pronounced like the English word "in" So when put together, it sounds like "SHEE-in" with the emphasis usually on the first syllable. It's worth noting that this pronunciation has become widely accepted, especially in English-speaking countries. However, as it's a Chinese company, the original Chinese pronunciation may differ slightly. Some people also pronounce it as "SHANE," similar to the name Sean, but this is less common and generally considered incorrect"

@wyterabitt2149 17 күн бұрын

@@MajoraEXPPlenty of these rules in English arent rules at all, including for "ean". Best you can normally say is that a lot work that way, but there's words that don't for ean that aren't obscure in English. For some of the rules people go on about, there's literally more words that break the rule that follow it even though that "rule" is well known.

Cheap Chinese manufactured IEMs have carved out a special place in the market lovingly referred to as Chi-fi. Coupled with a cheaper DAC (such as the ifi Go-Link) you can get tremendous sound for less than $100. I have a bit of an addiction and every time I see a new model of KZ or a brand I’ve never heard of, I pick them up as a little treat.

regarding the controller Austin is using at 20:59, he probably has it in the wrong mode and he'd need to switch it to either x-input or d-input mode. Theres a whole reddit thread about it and its a fairly decent controller attachment for cellphones. Downsides, if you need to charge you phone, or use wired earphones/iems/headphones, you cant really access those ports. Can use it on a computer as it uses a bluetooth connection. The mode the controller is in does mess with what the buttons do, leaving it in android mode has it behave like its interacting with the android functionality, which is why pressing 'B' would pause the game (it thinks it's the back button)

20:38 And now the only problem is that giant seam in the middle of the screen because for some reason people are actually buying ridiculous folding phones. You can get phones with screens this big that don't have a seam, and they fit better in your pocket than a phone that's folded in half and ends up being too bulky.

That switch game test doesn't reveal it's fake. Part of the problem is the only way to know it's fake is if someone else confirms they have the same ID on the cart which you can only do with hacked switches. Or if you are online with a fake cart at the same time as another fake cart, it's possible (but I don't think confirmed) that nintendo can ban you
