Rap man and rap woman.

What is rap woman?

And what does voices mean?

This is the smallest phone in the world.

It's right on the box.

Or maybe it isn't, I don't care.

What I do care about

is that it's the most popular phone in prison.

It's called a boss beater

because it's designed from the ground up

to beat a body orifice scanning chair

called, well, the boss.

And we're gonna do our best to find out today

if that is actually the case.

Which could get a little dirty, just like our sponsor.

(upbeat music)

- We'll begin by getting our equipment together.

We got our banana for scale, our phone protectors,

melon, a drill.

And of course the Zanco Tiny T1.

The first thing I get to do is unbox it.

This box is a trip.

Three day standby time,

that's good if you have to keep it in hiding.

You can't just like charge it, right?

Nano SIM, Bluetooth 3.0, got a lot of languages,

That's really important.

And the voices.

Man, woman, child, old, cartoon, young, Optimus-

- [David] Ooh

- Duck, robot, Eva, Wall-E, rap man, and rap woman.

(David laughing)

- What is rap woman?

And what does voices mean?

Does it do real time voice disguising?

Shut up, it does.

(laughter)

Oh my God, it's so much smaller than I expected.

Looking at this box, is the picture actual size?

No, not quite.

Even in my tiny hands.

Got a mic here.

This has gotta be for noise canceling.

What looks like potentially another mic hole here

and this would've taken some real engineering,

because in order for you to hear anyone

that you're actually talking to,

the mic has to have a really

actually fairly sophisticated pickup pattern.

There's one screw, what appears to be a speaker grille.

Oh my God, it comes with a silicone case.

How adorable is that?

Now, by this point in the video,

you're probably wondering who the heck Zanco is,

and how this came to be.

And the product is actually the result

of a successful Kickstarter campaign from back in 2018

that raised 246,000 US dollars.

Why?

Because they set out with a very specific goal,

and according to our sources

they've done a pretty bang up job of it.

Let's go ahead and open it up, so we can take a closer look.

I feel like I'm working on a toy, but it's not.

It's a fully functional phone.

Ooh, hey, I think it comes apart from the front.

There's your display on a ribbon cable.

Is it all LED?

- [David] It is.

- [Linus] Wow! - [David] Half-inch all LED.

- Your membrane button pad.

Oh my God.

Okay, there's your speaker driver right there.

There is your tiny lithium battery, SIM slot.

Shielded processor, RAM, and basically everything else.

I can imagine you guys thinking

build quality seems pretty rubbish.

Why would anybody pay for this thing at all?

And the answer is that Zanco knows their target market

and the Tiny T1 is designed to meet it.

Even the chassis material, sure,

they could have gone premium metal in space gray.

But there's no point beating the boss

if it's just gonna get caught in the metal detector, right?

Another example, micro USB.

Yeah, that's what you want.

Because it needs to be as small as humanly possible

so that it can be smuggled into the prison.

Because of these qualities, people not only pay for them,

but according to our contact on the inside,

they're worth anywhere from 500 to 1,000 US dollars.

(laughing)

This or iPhone right?

- 100%.

I mean, if you're putting it in your butt.

- Yeah, enough chit chat though.

We gotta turn it on, right?

That is a very small screen.

Still having trouble there.

Just gotta get that on there.

I'm just imagining like the giantest dude

with this thing now too.

Check this out.

We got two bars, four bars.

This is Jake's phone actually.

So I'm not gonna check his text, but maybe Jake.

Hey Jake, are you in earshot?

Or like, I can text him.

(phone clatters)

Let's figure out how the-

Is that the default ring tone?

A gunshot.

(laughing)

You get one line of text per scroll.

18 unread message.

Seven characters max.

(gunshot ringtone)

Are you texting him right now?

(gunshot sound effect)

(laughter)

Inbox lttstore.com.

Oh, okay, so that's from Colin then.

It looks even funnier in your hands.

- I can't tell if I'm being memed right now.

- No, no, you're not.

Oh my God, you're like changing options.

Cancel, done, okay.

- Dude they're all voicemail ones.

Why don't I get these on my phone?

That's weird.

- It's using 40% of its screen to tell me

I'm looking at the message.

I just wanna read the message.

I think I've kind of figured out

the interface at this point though, we've got a D-pad here.

This goes back and this goes forward.

So I'm in the inbox now.

Sent messages, I can go back here.

Message, and now I can scroll through

all my different things, check that out.

We got the bit dialer.

You know what, I'm not actually sure if this is a D-pad.

This might just be an up and down rocker.

A silent mode is super important.

Our source told us that there have been instances

of these being found and confiscated

because they rang at an inopportune time

or even because they vibrated

the individual's self in transport.

Magic voice.

Oh, here we go, here we go!

Oh, this is this voice changer thing.

So it's on none right now.

That's fine, we'll start normal.

It's gotta be time to make a call.

- [Automated Voice] Seven, seven, eight.

- What?

There's no way you want your phone going

six, zero, four.

Ah, here we go.

Let's play with some ring tones.

(ring tone playing)

I'm liking that, it's got kind of like

an '80s action movie kind of vibe.

- [David] Is there any vibration?

- Oh yeah.

(ringtone music playing)

These are amazing.

(phone ringing)

Oh, that's so boring!

I definitely like the last one.

(ringtone song playing)

Feel like I'm in an action movie.

(object clatters)

(gunshot sound)

Yeah, it's gonna have to be that.

I feel so dainty.

I feel like a dainty lady.

Wow, am I on speaker?

Hello?

No, it's not.

Wow, I really nailed the alignment on the speaker there.

Actually, I guess it's kind of easy

when the thing basically like fits inside your ear.

(voice modulated)

Colin, you can put it in your ear.

I am now next level.

Next level Bluetooth earpiece douche bag.

I got the whole phone in my ear.

- [David] I think you have the voice changer on already.

- Oh, I have the voice changer on

Oh crap.

Oh, I'm on duck mode.

- [David] There you go.

- How's my voice quality now?

- [David] It's significantly more Linus.

It's a little quieter, definitely a little quieter.

- Little quieter, okay, cool, okay.

Got your phone book, your call history.

You can message, mute, volume and, oh yeah, magic voice.

Well, you guys already heard duck by accident,

but let's go ahead and try some more.

- [David] Optimus, yeah!

- Okay.

I would like to order a strike on the Decepticons

and a large pepperoni pizza.

- I think there are Decepticons that do sound like this

but it is not Optimus.

- No, Okay.

Oh, we haven't even shown your voice quality yet.

Okay, I'm gonna put it right next to my mic.

Okay, Colin, tell me a little story.

- I'll tell you a little story

about this man who once dropped everything

he got his hands on-

- All right, all right, that's enough of that story.

Not bad though, right?

Like it's totally usable.

Hey Colin, you whippersnapper

or am I sounding a little older than I used to?

You are now receiving your instructions

from the robot known as Wall-E.

There's not much variation.

It's either you get like a high-pitched distortion

or a low-pitched distortion.

And then they called it like three different things.

Okay, last one, last one.

Collin, Do I sound like a rap woman?

Whatever a rap woman would be.

- [Colin] Ironically, you sound pretty much the same.

- Thank you for that.

This is my new cellular telephone.

It's Linus sized.

- What?

- Hi, Colin.

- Oh, hello.

(laughs)

- No, it's for putting in your butt.

- No, it's not.

- [David] Yeah, it is.

- It really is.

- For like prison people?

- Yeah.

- Why do we have that?

- So that we can see how well it fits in your butt

and how good the reception is from your butt.

- You have fun.

- All right, hanging up.

See you later.

Call ended.

I can't believe we haven't already done this

but here's a short circuit banana for scale, LTT store.com.

Wait, we haven't sent a text message yet.

Now in prisons where have a roommate,

it is against prison code, according to our contact

to snitch on someone else for having a phone.

But there still might be reasons that you may wish

to communicate a little bit more discreetly.

So let's go ahead.

Oh, it's T-9.

Oh, blast from the past.
