My kindle. I love that I can pop my phone away and just read, I have the app on my phone but being able to disconnect from “tech” is so important sometimes. I love a standard book but being able to have 1000’s of options to read on the go is just so convenient.

My most productive and fun tech piece I got in 2023 is my iPad mini, it's so good. I use it for uni, personal life, travel and gaming. I read a lot, and it's such a good size that is similar to a Kindle, but has way more versatility, which makes it an especially perfect companion while traveling, where I try to limit the things I bring and this iPad can fulfill many roles.

Interesting about the XM4s. I recently picked some up, and the noise cancellation is really something. I managed to get them sounding pretty good after a bit of tweaking.

I’d love a video about how you approach this things, creativity, or just your content in general. What elements or visual aspects you consider before, what you make on the go, what you love for post production.

I got the Peak Design Everyday 30, and I'm not crazy in love with the bag like I wanted to be. It's fine and has a lot of features, but it's a pain for everyday shooting if you're dipping in and out to change lenses. I picked up the Think Tank Retrospective 20 for my daily shooting and, so far, I am loving it. I am probably going to reconfigure the Peak Design into a non-photographer bag and use it that way. Also, I feel like a bit like a Koopa Troopa while wearing it.

Must say that as much as the AirPods Pro v2 are superb, I got some Bose QC Ultra buds and I love them. Their noise cancelling is great but I use them when out walking and the aware mode is very good indeed, And I find them just a little bit more comfortable than the AirPods. Still use the AirPods when not out and about but for me (listening mainly to podcasts and talking books) the Bose edge it and I'm very happy with that purchase.

I rarely change my tech, but this time exceptions had to be made XD.

My one regret of the year is buying the iPhone 14 just before the 15 came out at the same price. I say "just" but it was long enough to be out of the return period.

Instantly purchased the Pro 2 and they are amazing, sound quality is great along with all of the new features. When the first pair lasted me five years buying a the newest pro model was a no brainer.

@itz_jade_23 5 месяцев назад

This year I got myself an iPad Air 5 a with the Apple Pencil 2, and those two together have been so amazing for plenty of different reasons (getting organized, doing schoolwork, playing different mobile games, or just chilling and watching movies or RU-vid videos). The only thing about the Air is that I wished that it had the face ID too, but otherwise - great! I also got AirPods Pro 2, and they are amazing! I find myself always wanting to use them instead of other earbuds or headphones. The sound quality is just amazing. And lastly, for my birthday, my parents got me an Apple Watch SE, and it stays on my “eh” side. I am a swimmer, and the new Apple Watches are great for using when swimming. Except, what I had forgotten, the SE is an older model with a new chip, so my watch is not capable of going deep in the water or staying submerged in the water for a long time. So my watch got damaged but luckily didn’t break fully, but now my microphone doesn’t work and my battery isn’t as good. But I find that when I don’t have my watch on, is that I severely miss it. Being to see a whole bunch of information at one glance is amazing, also, I can’t go 2 minutes without checking the time lol.

@TheRealUnconnected 5 месяцев назад

Feel the exact same about my peak design sling; everyone loves it, so i bought it online. But shit rattles around a lot because there is no squish factor to the dividers or bag, and the overall bag is just incredibly stiff despite a year of use so far, which makes pulling my camera out a pain as the stiff clamshell design means it never just 'opens' its always trying to stay closed making it real hard to reach in and grab smaller items or bumping and twisting lenshoods, pulling lens caps off and so on.

I’ve got the peak design 30L for about a year now and it’s absolutely my favourite bag so far. I do agree that stuff does float in it a bit if the Velcro dividers aren’t configured exactly right. I have used it with canon eos r6m2 and a 45-105 lens and it’s secure enough for that specific setup. But since I mostly just use it to carry my laptop and tech stuff I just put my chargers and other tech accessories in a tech pouch and throw it in and it’s fine.

@michaelklein23 3 месяца назад

Favorite pickups of last year (2023) were: 16" mbp (m2 pro) *don't need the computing power but wanted the bigger and better screen plus don't upgrade my laptop often anyway Marshall middleton *a little heavy for a portable bt speaker but packs a punch for its size Evergoods civic travel bag 26 (phoenix 2) *not tech but carries all my tech This year the sennheiser momentum 4, complements my airpods pro 2 nicely (would have preferred the px8 but could not justify the price difference with my limited use case). Not the best ANC but decent enough as long as media is playing, have yet to try on a plane. One of the best sounding if not the best in this price range. Looking to pick up the steamdeck oled as well for portable gaming. The idea of handheld gaming is appealing. Much easier than having to take out a laptop and controller on the road. Like the gameboy back in the day as kids. Btw I think having the switch oled, steam deck oled and the emulator is redundant as the deck can handle what the other two do as well.

@Yaqins 5 месяцев назад

I agree with the Sony XM4 one. I bought myself a XM5 thinking that it might be my "endgame" to my audiogear. I love the design it's very lightweight and the ANC is probably the best on the market but i just couldn't get past the sound character. Too muddy, warm, and mumbled for my liking. Coming from Audio Technica m50x with bright and v-shaped sound signature, using the XM5 felt like cheaper headphones despite it cost almost twice as much. So i returned them and bought myself the ATH m50xbt2.

I 100% agree with you with regards to the Sony XM4’s, I bought a pair after my Sennheiser PXC 550’s died after 5 years of solid use. These things sound like shit compared to the PXC550’s. I had to muck around with the eq which I usually never touch just to get something half decent. I also have constant connectivity issues when switching to a new device, I basically have to tap the headphones in my Bluetooth device list whilst simultaneously turning them on to make sure they actually connect, otherwise they just turn on and don’t connect to anything. Will never make the mistake of leaving Sennheiser again.

I love this little end of year wrap up! My problem with the XM4’s were just discomfort. I can’t handle the pressure point on the top of my head. I used to have problems with that and thought I’d give it a shot again, but no go. AirPods Pro can’t be beat in that regard. I also played my Switch in handheld mode more this year than any year prior combined since I got the OLED TOTK model. I love the system so much.

OLED is the move on switch!

Really wish there’s a OLED switch lite, it’s a far more portable device

On the magflott vesa mount it looks like it's only for the ipad yet on your desktop it also holds the screen I don't know how you did that or am I missing something? otherwise I like your very clean setup!

I enjoyed this video a lot thanks to the chillness of you, your voice, and everything. Sadly the rest of your videos are only about Apple products which I don't care about, or else I'd have subscribed instantly. I wish you featured other gadgets more frequently!

@ByteReview 5 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed the video, and I’m branching out a little more this year so maybe see you in a non-Apple related video soon

I actually recently picked up the XM4s during the 12.12 sales and I’ve been loving it so far. It beats my Bose qc45 though with the intuitive controls.

@ByteReview 6 месяцев назад

I honestly think mine are just a duff unit or something! I wish I liked them!

@hotmintchoco 6 месяцев назад

Aw… yeah considering it’s a pretty dated model. Some speculations of the XM6 releasing in 2024, maybe you can try those

Thanks for the great video! I’ve also done a bunch of upgrades this year: - iPhone 7 to 12 mini - iPad Pro 12.9 4th gen to iPad Pro 11 with M1 - Mechanical keyboard: Royal Kludge RK84 with Anubis Switches - MacBook Pro 2017 i5 to M2 Mac Mini - Sony XM4s to Apple AirPod Pro Maxes The last two upgrades were risks but they were SO worth it. I realized with the iPad and keyboard, I didn’t really need a laptop anymore. I like having my work stay mostly stationary because I’m working on learning a better work/life balance with regard to my tech. And I had the same problem with the Sony’s. The AirPod Pro Maxes are miles better in sound and the ANC is still really good, and I found the AirPod Pro Maxes more comfortable for long travel days. I’ll absolutely upgrade or rebuy if they ever die on me.

@ByteReview 5 месяцев назад

Nice upgrades! The new iPhone must feel awesome coming from the 7! And yes, I think the apple silicon macs are next level good, easily the best thing they've done in years imo

Sad you didn't enjoy your Peak Design bag. I have an Everyday 20L, Sling 10L, and 45L Travel Backpack. These 3 bags have taken me across the globe while protecting my camera equipment and have honestly become some of the most important pieces of gear that I own.

very interesting, I have been looking for mini emulators but they all tend to have bad reviews. was interesting to hear the Miyoo is worth checking out

@HipposHateWater Месяц назад

Oh they're fantastic. I did not expect mine to end up so heavily and frequently used when I bought it lol. If you do get a retro emulator of some sort, make sure to get a proper microSD card for it and download yourself a nice rom library like Done Set for the best experience.
