[1330.26 --> 1332.40] Amazon's like, we're just trying junk.
[1332.60 --> 1334.40] We're just going to put a screen on this one.
[1335.18 --> 1337.18] This one's going to have a big subwoofer on it.
[1337.34 --> 1339.30] They released, like, 10 different new things.
[1339.72 --> 1341.94] And what I think is cool is that they're –
[1341.94 --> 1342.40] What the heck?
[1342.48 --> 1343.40] They're like guinea pigs.
[1345.18 --> 1349.66] Like, because then a year later, Google will release, like, a copycat version of one of these.
[1349.78 --> 1349.98] Yeah.
[1350.10 --> 1352.42] So let's just go through some of the stuff.
[1352.48 --> 1353.66] It starts off pretty tame.
[1354.16 --> 1358.16] You start off with some Echo Dots, which is just, like, a really small Echo.
[1358.56 --> 1359.64] No, Echo Dots old, though.
[1359.82 --> 1361.36] Well, there's a couple things that they upgraded.
[1361.36 --> 1364.10] It looks like, yeah, maybe upgraded versions or newer versions.
[1364.42 --> 1366.84] But then immediately you get into, like, what the heck?
[1367.48 --> 1367.96] The –
[1367.96 --> 1368.80] Echo Auto.
[1368.80 --> 1373.04] Echo Auto, an in-car accessory that allows you to integrate Alexa into your car.
[1373.62 --> 1374.48] So here's the weird thing.
[1374.56 --> 1375.90] You can plug it in two different ways.
[1375.98 --> 1383.26] You can plug it in with a 3.5 millimeter aux jack or by connecting over a smartphone's existing Bluetooth setup to the car.
[1383.38 --> 1387.56] But you cannot just directly Bluetooth the device to the car.
[1389.00 --> 1389.68] I don't know.
[1390.04 --> 1390.44] Okay.
[1390.86 --> 1391.24] All right.
[1391.74 --> 1393.58] Apparently there's a slight catch.
[1393.80 --> 1397.04] It's not ready and it's only available by invitation.
[1397.04 --> 1398.58] Well, yeah.
[1398.72 --> 1402.24] The different items on this list have kind of a staggered rollout.
[1402.32 --> 1403.62] Some things you can preorder right now.
[1403.70 --> 1405.44] Some things you can't even preorder yet.
[1405.44 --> 1414.84] But this Auto one, it gets powered by a cigarette lighter, like one of those cigarette lighter adapters that goes into, like, a mini USB.
[1415.36 --> 1417.66] So you've got that one cord for sure.
[1418.08 --> 1422.02] And then you also have to either do the Bluetooth through a phone.
[1422.02 --> 1426.26] But if you don't do that, you've got the 3.5 millimeter jack.
[1426.34 --> 1429.62] So then that's possibly two cords coming out of this thing and into your car.
[1429.74 --> 1433.62] But if it's, okay, if it's, how does it bridge onto the Bluetooth through your phone?
[1433.70 --> 1435.26] Because Bluetooth can only connect to one thing.
[1435.44 --> 1435.68] Yeah.
[1436.10 --> 1436.74] I don't know.
[1437.44 --> 1438.10] It's weird.
[1438.94 --> 1441.50] And then it's just Alexa capability in the car.
[1441.50 --> 1447.74] Like, it's, you're paying 50 bucks because you really can't not talk to Alexa for, like.
[1448.58 --> 1449.46] You're just driving to work.
[1449.52 --> 1449.82] You know what?
[1449.86 --> 1451.34] I need more toilet paper.
[1451.86 --> 1452.26] Now.
[1453.06 --> 1454.24] Like, this second.
[1454.24 --> 1455.90] All my best thinking is done in the car.
[1456.46 --> 1456.68] Oh, man.
[1456.68 --> 1456.84] All right.
[1456.88 --> 1457.40] Let's not dwell.
[1457.48 --> 1458.80] We've got, like, nine things to go with here.
[1459.00 --> 1460.14] Amazon Echo Sub.
[1460.14 --> 1467.50] If you've got a lot of different Echo devices in your house and you have them hooked up in, like, a multi-room speaker array.
[1467.90 --> 1471.20] Well, it's time you had a six-inch 100-watt subwoofer to go with those.
[1472.36 --> 1473.96] So, this is a sub you got.
[1473.96 --> 1474.14] Sorry.
[1474.20 --> 1474.66] Hold on.
[1474.86 --> 1477.80] There's a super chat thing, which, sorry, guys.
[1477.82 --> 1478.82] I'm not going to read all these.
[1479.22 --> 1479.74] Hold the phone.
[1479.86 --> 1482.56] What's the difference between TechLinked and TechQuickie?
[1482.66 --> 1483.58] They seem the same.
[1483.70 --> 1484.42] Why have both?
[1485.48 --> 1486.88] Have you even watched them?
[1486.88 --> 1491.64] Thank you for your $5 donation.
[1492.12 --> 1494.48] One has an orange and blue background.
[1494.62 --> 1494.88] Yeah.
[1494.90 --> 1496.32] The other has a white background.
[1496.50 --> 1497.54] It's so different.
[1498.28 --> 1499.70] Like, seriously, guys.
[1499.78 --> 1505.20] One is a daily news show where they look at the news of that day and report on it in a quick fashion.
[1505.44 --> 1506.56] That's TechLinked.
[1506.96 --> 1507.04] Yeah.
[1507.08 --> 1508.70] And then one is a video of explainers.
[1508.70 --> 1517.28] These videos tend to be more evergreen in that you might look up the definition of HDMI today or three years from now.
[1517.52 --> 1520.88] That content, it's kind of like an encyclopedia of tech definitions.
[1520.88 --> 1541.48] The idea behind TechQuickie originally was Linus and I were talking about how, like, our mom or a friend or someone might be in a store or be shopping for something and see a name of something like HDMI or Core i7 and be like, I don't know what that means.
[1541.62 --> 1543.12] I don't know what value this brings to me.
[1543.24 --> 1548.12] And we wanted to make more or less a repository of information on those types of things.
[1548.12 --> 1552.64] That's why a lot of the original videos were as basic as what is HDMI.
[1553.32 --> 1558.80] And it's gotten into a little bit more higher level topics over time because you run out of those things pretty quick.
[1559.44 --> 1560.84] But it's explainers.
[1561.02 --> 1565.08] If you ever ask yourself kind of a tech question of, like, how does this work?
[1565.18 --> 1566.12] Why can't I use that?
[1566.32 --> 1568.56] Why can't I use my phone when I'm on the airplane?
[1568.82 --> 1569.04] Yeah.
[1569.30 --> 1570.30] That kind of stuff.
[1570.34 --> 1571.64] As long as it's in the tech realm.
[1572.24 --> 1573.54] Then TechQuickie might have it.
[1573.72 --> 1575.36] Then TechLinked is daily news.
[1575.36 --> 1580.34] They're, like, really, really wildly different.
[1581.34 --> 1582.74] Thank you for your super chat, though.
[1582.94 --> 1584.26] And please subscribe to everything.
[1584.64 --> 1584.86] Yeah.
[1585.34 --> 1586.02] Let's continue.
[1586.42 --> 1588.22] So we have the Echo Sub.
[1588.58 --> 1590.18] It's $130 for one.
