The Best Home Tech! (2017) #Helpful Post

you guys Johnson here today we are

taking a look at some of the best home

tech thus far of 2017 so first up is the

Philips Sonicare FlexCare platinum

connected if you shot out to Philips for

not only sending this out but also in

the dark days of ad pocalypse for also

sponsoring this episode

no yes this is a toothbrush on a tech

channel that was because there is a

crazy amount of tech packed inside this

guy start with the fact it'll connected

by a bluetooth to your smart phone so

what's cool that Bluetooth connectivity

the fact that it's not going to just

tell you to brush your teeth for X

amount of minutes there is a smart

sensor built within this it's going to

know how hard you brushed where you

brush at the end of it when all said and

done which spot to hit correctly and

which ones you didn't so that combined

with the fact that it is guiding you

through your mouth section by section is

kind of cool not going to lie there are

times when you wake up in the morning

your zoned out you're half asleep and

maybe you brush the right side of your

mouth way more than you need to and

neglect that left side but would this

not know more now for those who have

come in more recent videos you know

strokes per minute is kind of a big deal

and this guy is dishing out 31,000

strokes a minute and to break that down

that is 516 strokes a second and to

visualize that one two three that is

1550 strokes that just happened if you

combine that kind of stroke power with

their adaptive clean brush hair which is

soft flexible just kind of how's your

teeth and you're going to have some

squeaky-clean pearly white so next up is

the Comal audio solo wireless bluetooth

speaker and specifically I'm taking a

look at the one in walnut black so if

you love what and you love tech you are

going to love this thing aesthetically

it is beautiful and if there were one

word I would use to describe this it

would be classy now price-wise it is a

little more than your average Bluetooth

speaker but that is because it is more

than your average Bluetooth speaker for

starters build quality wise it is using

real wood and not some cheap laminate

and when I say it is more than just a

Bluetooth speaker what I mean by that if

the only Bluetooth connectivity there's

built-in radio both FM and internet

flavors Wi-Fi and then was set up to me

the most is built-in spotify connect

integration now specifically for me why

I really like the Spotify connect

feature is you're actually getting

better sound quality that's because you

are pulling music directly from the

device as opposed to connecting through

bluetooth and then to once you're set up

and ready to go

you can then you

to stand alone without needing to use

your phone it's our sound quality goes

this thing packs way way more sound than

you would ever expect for a box that

size it is clear it is punchy there is

plenty of volume on the other hand

though it's not going to blow your socks

off low and wide so is that something

you're into you may potentially want to

look elsewhere but if you're looking for

something clear it's going to fill a

room is unique impactful features this

is your guy following that maybe one of

the coolest home tech gadgets of all

time especially for under 30 bucks this

is the side click it specifically I'm

taking a look at the one for Apple TV

but if Apple is not your thing there's

also one available for the fire TV and

Roku so with a side click first and

foremost what it's going to do

essentially is house the Apple TV remote

what that's going to do is that some

sides at some Vulcan and turn hopefully

reduce your chances of losing this thing

now in my case the way I've set up is

the power button is going to power on

and power off the TV the plus/minus will

then control volume on the sound bar the

up and down arrows will control the

channels on the TV

the source button will control the

source of the TV and then as far as a

and B goes right now I have a to again

power on the TV and that is really only

because I don't have a secondary device

but in theory you could a blu-ray player

or a DVD player and then lastly I have

be powering on the sound bar now for me

the coolest thing about this guy aside

from the price was how easy it was to

set it up it seriously took less than

five minutes that's because it connects

through infrared as opposed to entering

in stupid codes now the instance where

maybe you're also using a cable box this

will definitely improve things but not

be the ideal solution but on the flip

side if you're someone who watches TV

and consumes their media through an

Apple TV a Roku or a fire TV this might

be just the answer you were looking for

so next up is the new most smart home

controller which looks like it is

straight out of the future so as far as

scale goes this right here is it is a

super compact really sleek looking

device that also comes in white what

it's going to do is give you control

over various tech products in your home

all through a single source now as far

as put this will control right now you

have Apple music Google cast lifx light

bulbs philips hue light bulbs rom fell

and then so no speakers once you're set

up and connected it is super simple to

switch between which device you want to

control simply swipe up or down and then

icon will pop up of which device is

currently being controlled in this case

here was philips here you can see the

light bulb icon pop up and as far as

control goes I can do

as simple as power to light off or on or

something more complex like changing the

color blue

now hopping over to Apple music from our

play a song simply press it volume go

next song so you can see it works really

well is pretty instantaneous and it's

going to give you that next level

control instead of having to reach out

for your phone or your tablet now again

the ideal location for this is going to

be a wall or table or a desk not to be

used free handedly

but the good news is everything you need

to do that it's going to come in the box

now if I had any complaint it would be

the fact that you do need an active

Bluetooth connection to use this whether

it's your phone or your tablet it will

not work standalone and beyond that I

would definitely love to see more apps

support especially Spotify but if that's

not if you use Sonos if you use alpha

music if you use lifx or phillips you

this is a really cool home tech device

so next up this would be perfect for the

best tech on our 15 if you guys are

excited for a new episode of that make

sure you drop a like down below this is

the adven tree Bluetooth transmitter

which can allow you to use bluetooth

headphones with your TV so what this

tiny compact gadget does is connect to

the audio of your TV and then creates a

Bluetooth connection where you can then

connect up to two different Bluetooth

headphones now a couple notes if you

pick this up and you set it up any

notice a little bit of lag or a little

bit of latency that is more than likely

because your headphones do not support a

low latency mode as that's the case they

do make a complimentary pair of

headphones that is designed specifically

for this use on the contrary though if

you do want to use the low latency pair

of headphones you can only stream audio

to one pair of headphones not two so if

you do want to stream audio to two

separate sources you will have to

sacrifice the low latency you can't

power this through the USB port on your

TV but what's cool with this is there

they built him better that should give

you around six hours of battery life

that also makes us perfect to take on

the go so if you're someone who lives

with others maybe you watch things way

too late or way too early and even

looking for a solution to continue to do

that without disturbing others this is a

fantastic option and again it is only 39

bucks besides tonight thank you guys

very much for watching the POV yet make

sure you check out this video here where

Phillips partner with Ted to showcase

how cool technology like the

Sonicare FlexCare platinum connected can

help improve lives this is Jonathan and

I will catch you guys later
