My Favourite Tech of 2022! 

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!

My favorite tech are the fish. The RGB colors look dope as hell!

Another thing that seems to get hugely overlooked with the Ryzen laptops is their power/performance. They're really not that far behind the 12 gen mobile chips in raw perf yet the laptops that have models with both, often show much better battery on the AMD model. I'll take that over some benchmark numbers. Plus the G15 looks really nice as you said lol.

Holy. This man is too clean and I love his channel. Much love ❤

Thanks Dave for another great year of tech reviews!

The tank is a great addition. It was creative how he used a dead branch and plants to mimic a bonsai 🌳

I've been watching you since I was in high school, and now I'm about to graduate from university. Thanks for the great work this year. Love the videos, man. Hope to accompany you on your RU-vid journey in the coming years.

have you considered letting the shrimp type on the board? THANK YOU FOR THE SHOUTOUT GLAD YOURE STILL LIKING IT!

One of my favorite people on YT, super down to earth and it comes through in your videos, nothing fake going on here. Excited to see more videos next year.

That aquarium looks really nice! 👍

The iPad stand looks to be backwards based on the product shots. That’s why it falls forward on you.

Yessssss Taeha Types! Nathan is the pioneer of the custom keyboard community! So glad you finally showed off the keyboard he made for you. I actually got into custom keyboards from watching your Keychron Q1 review lol

Dave2D2: has an average laptop because “aesthetics is part of how I live my life”. Also Dave2D2: “the headphones… these are suuppeerr ugly.” 😮

That keyboard is so sick. Thx for showcasing it!

Will you do laptop ranking 2022 like last year?

Keyboard and fishtank is amazing❤️. Ques:-❓ 1.Can you make what's on my phone video? 2. Do you continue what's on my phone series?

Couple of questions as i have a curious mind, Why are you in a bunker? Did you choose that sippy cup purely for aesthetics?

The hand-held camera and the lettering made this look like an infomercial

The "Tessel" bag is looking like they're going for a "tessellated" look. It's pretty neat looking imo!

I was looking for the video where you talk about the tank! For the longest time I was waiting for you to plan the tank. The tank can also get pretty "high tech" if you go down the route of Co2 and all that, but aesthetics wise, you should check out ADA stuff. I think you would appreciate it. Love your videos.

The chair bro! How could forget about the chair🤣

I lost my G pro X Superlight so I switched to the G502X+. The reason was because of the buttons, the wirelessness and the USB C port.

probably dave's most chaotic video of the year, still zen af tho

Fishtank part is very appreciated!

Dave needs about 100 hungry piranhas' in that fish tank to really complete the aesthetic of his office

Very cool! What about the chair and the desk?

6:40 that's the X superlight, not the g pro wireless which has 4 side buttons

1:49 “I am *drinks water* parched DUDE” unreal 😂 great vid dave!

Thought the water bottle was also your favorite tech list somehow

The model of headphones aren't to blame for why the final audio doesn't sound like you think it should, I think you're experiencing just how headphones work! Headphones are not like speakers. Things that are mono will sound about 3db quieter than things that are stereo in headphones. If you're worried about how the final audio mix will sound, reference your balances on speakers. Do any fine edits on headphones, but speakers will be more true to sheer balances.

Yo Dave, hope you are doing well. Been a while since you posted, wondering if 2 weeks is going to be the norm for uploads from now. Enjoy your holidays with the fam ❤️

Looks really good but you need some plants on the sides and maybe some hangout on that wall with some posters and wood. It really improves the Feng Shui

This is Dave after a good amount of Whiskey.

Dave: I really give importance to aesthetic Also Dave: (pointing to 🎧) these are super ugly

Dope minimalist setup!!! Will you make an office tour video as well? Curious to see ur workflow and work setup!

Thanks Dave! This was actually quite adorable! You're so humble and it shows brightly in this video! Hope you have a speedy recovery and Happy Holidays!

I love your clean and minimalist stuff. Not fancy, just clean and beautiful (that's the way to go for me).

Gotta love Dave - possibly the only tech youtuber of note who appears seemingly immune to the boyish yet persistent marketing charms of Linus Sebastian. Sad Linus after watching this video and seeing Dave's water bottle, mousepad and backpack lol XD

Loudest dave has ever been on any video holiday excitement 😂

Dave: "I dont edit heavy and high demanding footage" Also behind Dave: *4ft monitor with max gpu

Thanks for the fish tank overview :) It looks super clean and this neon fish indeed looks cool from a distance.

When dave transforms into Linus 🤣 Get well soon

Out of all those things the fish are most aesthetically pleasing.

Always love your hoddies man

"They're just snails" will disappoint the snails

Bro, do a review of the nothing phone 1 and why you still use the iPhone 13 series. That would be super cool!

If you want any pointers for your tank dave. It looks like you might do better with another light added. Your S.repens (carpet plants) are growing vertical, adding more light will make the carpet a lot thicker. It looks like a majority of them have 3-4 layers, I would trim them and propagate the trimmings. It does look like you have some spot algae, so adding more light might just make more algae. If that is the case I would have the additional light but reduce the on time to roughly 6-8ish hours, and/or add a circulation pump. It looks like the soil you are using is ADA so that can be the other reason why your getting algae, ADA is jam packed with nutrients. That's why I was thinking of adding a circulation pump.

Thx a LOT Dave 🤩 This is way cool, lots of nice stuff here, Really thinking of testing out the Nothing Phone 1 Anyone knows which software is used for video editing? Continued happy holidays 🥳

You're using the iPad stand backwards. The stability of all stands like that - from doll mounts to lights - comes from the offset of the pole to the stand. Turn it around - like Benks shows on its product page.

@Dave2D Ok, so the one thing that I wanted to know about in your setup is something you didn’t mention. What is the drawer setup you have on the left side of your desk? I want to get them for my office!

Thank you for including the aquarium. I like the scape. It's simple but it works. It's not so simple as you make it seem, though. Open the cabinet and you'll see. It doesn't have storageroom for the liquor ;)

Im waiting for the best laptop of 2022 video But i enjoyed this one

That keyboard is fabulous. The aquarium is so old world. Fish don’t want to be restricted.

Sick wallpaper tho. Where i can find it?

Highly believe you would absolutely love the new LG OLED Flex screen, I even thought you'd dedicate a video to it. 🤖

6:00 - Here's what he typed (they typos are his, not mine!): This is such an asweoms jeyboard toi type on lol this is cool :P Yes, I do have a lot of free time~ And yes, he does have a better keyboard... I'm using one that came with my first computer more than 10 years ago...

Genuinely humble guy. I love him

The keyboard is designed by Omnitype not Taeha although I’m sure he did a good job assembling it.

Clarification for people re: ultrawide compatibility : the 32:9 monitor Dave is using is known as "super ultrawide", and that's where the compatibility issues can persist. Regular "ultrawide" is 21:9 and that runs basically native like a regular widescreen 16:9 resolution in games these days, with rare exception. 5120x1440 = 32:9 "super ultrawide" 3440x1440 = 21:9 "ultrawide" 2560x1440 = 16:9 "widescreen"

Bro, you drunk while making this video? I love your channel btw. Much love! ❤

Ultrawide, curved monitors are the best. I have a DELL (32") at home, and an LG (34") at work. I cannot do regular monitors anymore. For productivity and media consumption, there isn't anything better.

Hi guys.... Pixel 6 pro and the iPhone 13 are of very similar price here ( pixel being slightly cheaper) ... Which one should I get?? Or other options... Like S22, OnePlus 10 pro, etc etc

Dave is tweakin’ hahah Get some rest dude, happy holidays.

Bruh why does an SSD have RGB? Also funny that the Nothingphone lighted up when Dave talked about the lights

Finally Dave reviewed his aquarium. The fish deserves their air time too you know.

That keyboard omg!!! Even a whole video just typing would be awesome!!!

I watched this high, and I can tell Dave was high too. I love how u only use tech that u actually like instead of owning stuff that’s trendy

Hey dave👋 I'm confused b/w ipad pro m2 and tab s8+

Cherry blossom by Ottom was D2d's identity. Please bring it back

Hey Dave, I'm really curious about your water bottle lol

Tech or no tech- watching Dave describe stuff is just fascinating. Proud I’m a fan for such a long time😅 Merry Christmas everyone

The basement studio has come out very well! I should invade it sometime.

What is the iPad you're using? I think you forgot to mention it

Great video Dave.. is there something wrong with the audio?

The fish bowl is my favourite that looks so clean!

For all the shilling he did against the steam deck with the Aya Neo its good to not see it in this video.

Dave i'm like you. Design is a very important part of my daily existence. How it looks is as important as what it does.

Hi Dave, which chair do you use?

finally, we get to see the fish tank in close. it's nice aquascape, I have similar setup back then, with Montecarlo carpet plan. but not as clean and nice looking as yours..

You just know he was just wingin it the video. No prep. And it was so fun

You should've put a bonsai-style tree in the tank. I think it'd fit the vibe better

Dave is the pinnacle of dad drip

Glad you spoke about the aquarium!

Everything you have is so nice, clean, and elegant. Even your hoodie is slick. Massive props

Zelal Magnetic VESA Mount! If you are looking for an iPad mounting option, there is simply nothing better. Also glad to see I’m not the only one with the bad habit of hitting space with my right index.

Sometimes simple and straightforward things only satisfies a user needs.... Not to be complicated and feature rich as advertised by companies

I think most of the audience are more or less, annoyed, by the fact that there's less laptop reviews than before, we never got to see Lenovo Legion 7i or Msi's GeHx series, and couple of others. Still hoping to see quite some more. Happy Holidays, Dave!

“They’re just snails!” Snail: glares

no tier list for laptops?was hoping for one

"They're just snails" XD

Pretty crazy I’ve been watching since like 150k and now you’re on the way to 4m subs. You rock

Hey, we have the same Mini-ITX case! I went with the aqua colour :) (Love it so much, if anyone was wondering)

Simplicity, calmness , and everything is tidy and clean in your life, my friend you're very classy🤌

"this is for you nathan" **Drops an ad in the middle of the broll**

Dave, you need some fast growing plants or floating plants to avoid algae. Also get surface skimmer for oil film on the water.

i'm so glad you finally mentioned the tank ! i can't stop looking at it while watching your videos !!

yay man, I was really missing you this time around. Coz always watch your videos during dinner while at home in holidays ❤️

Finally the aquarium video.!!

Saw the aquascape when you first set it up, and couldn’t wait to see you talk about it. Glad to see a fellow scaper!

Love your end of year videos. Thanks Dave can’t wait to see what you have for us next year.
