So, yeah, I've looked at many different Bluetooth speakers and my love for Bluetooth speakers, it goes back
0:08
Along the way, I've bumped into many Bluetooth speakers from Ultimate Ears
0:13
I think I've tested them all, in fact. This is their new one, the Mega Blast, with Amazon Alexa
0:19
So they have put Amazon Alexa into their products now. So what does that mean for you
0:24
Well, you can ask things. Play Road Trip playlist. Turn up the volume
0:29
It's waterproof IP67, that's kind of important. Claim up to 16 hours of battery life
0:36
They sent this over to Power Up Charge Dock. Every single time I reach for a Bluetooth speaker that I haven't used in a while, it's dead
0:45
So having this dock not only gives you a way of ensuring that your portable speaker is always charged, but it also gives it a home
0:52
Ooh, fancy artwork there, look at, that's cool. Look at this guy! His head is potato chips
1:01
Ooh! Very nice. It seems a bit bigger than the Mega Boom
1:07
What is this doing down here? Pull down on this section to charge it up
1:13
Or, what do you do? You pop the whole thing off to use the charge base, right
1:20
You replace bottom hook here with this one that comes with the charge dock
1:26
Let see here Oh wow So if you can just leave that on there all the time You get home bam you charging Flat style micro USB cable power brick
1:39
Ooh. Ooh! Now in order to use the Alexa functionality, obviously this thing's going to have to connect to the internet
1:46
So I'm going to get the app for that component. Uno momento, por favor
1:52
Alexa, play 90s hip-hop. Here's a station for 90s hip-hop music. 90s hip-hop from Amazon Music
2:00
Hip-hop. I won't deny it. Tell me a joke. What did the penguin wear to the prom
2:07
Nothing. Can you laugh? Sure, I can laugh. Tee-hee. Ah
2:18
Tee-hee. Are you part of the CIA? No, I work for Amazon
2:25
Well, I'm glad to know. What's your favorite movie? Edward Scissorhands is fantastic and bittersweet
2:30
I guess for some, being semi-human doesn't always cut it. Ooh, that was a joke as well
2:37
Set volume to three. I suggested a volume. I saw the volume go down on my phone
2:43
Rap for me. Connect, sync, link all the pieces of your life. I get it done at the speed of Wi-Fi
2:49
I'm the player, the coach, the arena, and the game. If you want something done, you just gotta send my name
3:29
Ryan hasn't been in town for a little while so just give the man a little love please you know
3:33
What do you think about this speaker dude? Huh? It sounded pretty good. Oh, you're not impressed. No, no, I mean, so wait this has to be plugged in though
3:42
In order to charge. Just a dock. Just a dock. Oh, I thought it was- Just a dock. I thought you could charge this and then bring this with you. Not a battery thing. Oh. Just a dock. Okay
3:50
On the road you would like to just do like this. Like this. Okay. You're about to leave for your trip
3:55
Kaboom. Yeah, you go. Yeah, I like that. You got 16 hours. But this is plugged in somewhere in your house
4:01
Right? Are we still doing this? Yeah, I'm confused. We're still talking about it? It's a dock. Yeah, a dock that's plugged in though. All docks are plugged in. Okay, all right. What's a not plugged in dock
4:10
For some reason, I thought this was some kind of wireless. I get it. Wireless from this. So this goes on
4:15
It's like a wireless charger. All right, all right. Well, I'm not as savvy as you when it comes to this
4:19
I don't know, man. You strike me as quite savvy. I saw the moves earlier. They look like savvy
4:24
Those look like some savvy moves to me. I don't know about that
4:29
Durable got some base to it portable enough Now it can substitute as a smart speaker You can skip your smart speaker It a package you got a number of things in this one piece of equipment that sits in your house right Just doing both I like this now
4:43
There you are. There you are, Ryan. It's fully charged. There you are. Sit at home. There you are. You're using it as the Echo or whatever
4:49
You're the guy. And then you want to go. You go on the party. Oh, I love it
4:53
That's what I'm talking about. Oh
5:04
Oh! Good night! This episode of Unbox Therapy is brought to you by the Crave Plus external battery charger featuring
5:13
Micro USB in, Type C in and out, and Quick Charge 3.0
5:18
This is a 10,000 mAh unit. And that's pretty slim actually. I like how they've put the LED indicators on the side so you can check your charge
5:28
On the bottom side you can see the micro USB in, the type C in and out and the QC 3.0 port
5:35
A charge cable to charge the brick up itself. Now one thing I like about the design of this unit is it's kind of the exact thickness and shape of a smartphone
5:44
And the reason that's a good thing, if you do want to carry this in your pocket while it's charging up your phone
5:50
you can kind of stack the two of them together. And look at that. It's the exact same size as my Pixel 2 XL
5:57
as opposed to a battery bank that has a more squared off design
6:01
You get a nice slender 10,000 mAh battery, the Crave Plus. Check it out. I'll put a link down in the description
6:07
You can get it on Amazon
