Hi Patrick, would really appreciate chapters on this type of gear video if it’s not too much trouble. I’m interested in certain products, but don’t want to sit through all the others. Just a suggestion. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.
Hi, thanks for being courteous about your suggestion. There is a reason a lot of us don't use chapter markers. RU-vid prioritizes videos based on average watch time. Chapter markers causes viewers to skip parts that they could have otherwise found interesting, which essentially kills the video. RU-vid makes it effectively impossible for us to use chapter markers because of it.
I have a couple of the items you covered, the UGREEN 100W charger and the Echo Show 5, and they're both excellent devices. The charger travels everywhere with me.
AirPods Max were on sale for $398 a few days ago, shipped and sold by Amazon. Bought them in black, confirmed if they were legit just to be on the safe side and everything checked out. I’m pretty satisfied.
Yeah there have been some pretty awesome early prime days. It's always a gamble but it's quite possible that the early deals are better than the prime day ones. Glad you're happy!
Patrick - you need to add a travel caveat for your 145 W power bank. There are quite a lot of airlines that impose a maximum of 100W power bank. I have a 20000Ah power bank / 100 W and so far so good.
I want to just add a quick comment from the 4K camera purchase. If you go to product website you will be purchasing from China. We just need to pay attention because promoters may be unaware or just indifferent to import fees or additional charges. So just be aware of the possibility of additional charges.
Another winning array of useful tech products. Thanks so much for posting these videos! I’m currently on holiday at Topaz Lake Nevada. But, I’m definitely going to check out the bargains during Amazon Prime days. Hopefully some of these goodies show up on sale.
Excellent selection of products. Thanks, Patrick! I’ll definitely be checking out the prices on those Nexode products! Maybe they will even make me an offer I can’t refuse on an 11 inch iPad Pro-a price so appealing that I can pick one up to use as an “iPad mini Pro.” 😁🤔
@@PatrickRambles Indeed, I just received the Nexode Charger and Power Bank you recommended and can't wait to use them both (using charger to charge battery prior to first use now). The idea of having a single battery/charger combo that can meet all of my needs while traveling is just awesome. Thanks for the tip!
I'm torn on your suggestion OBSBOT Tiny, I have a Canon M50 mounted behind my monitor and recently have been also using my iPhone via Continuity as a webcam (which has been surprising great in quality). Do you think the features on the OBSBOT Tiny outweighs what I currently have? I do feel the Canon M50 is under utilized just as a webcam.
The tracking is amazing and as much as I appreciate continuity camera , I want to take zero steps to setup a video call, so I opted to a dedicated webcam.
"I literally cant think of any other negatives"..... my brother in tech, I literally drive to work every morning and curse the engineers at Logitech because having the device selection button on the bottom is the single worst design Ive ever seen aside from when Apple put the magic mouse charging port down there. I love my MX to death except that feature haunts me haha
The major issue with the MX3 is the put the device switch button on the bottom of the mouse. Its a huge annoyance. I need to switch between devices often for my job and having to flip the mouse over each time sucks. Other then that it's great.
Great video! I was impressed by the note recorder. I will have to fight with you, respectfully on the mouse. The MX Master 3S looks amazing but the build quality falls short of the quality Logitech was known for. An alarming amount of users are reporting click failure after a year (right when warranty is done) and the material does not hold up to daily use. Will start “melting” overtime. The MX Master 2S is the way to go here.
@@PatrickRambles the material is some sort of soft rubber. The problem seems to be most common if you have sweaty or oily hands. The other Logitech mouse I have are more of a hard rubber but neither of those show signs of wear. Honestly not sure why Logitech decided to go with a softer rubber.
This is why I don't like buying refurbished (see my other comment). At least if I buy new, I know I have a year ofln the warranty of anything goes bad. Amazon's 90 day return is generous but I'm more concerned for long-term issues.
@@sayididit2930 It’s usually safe to buy refurbished as long as there is a warranty. However, the problems I mentioned do not arise until after the warranty is up. If you check Amazon reviews and Reddit, there’s an alarming number of people who are complaining about their clicker failing and the material deteriorating from normal use. Logitech is doing nothing to help with this problem nor do they acknowledge it. It also doesn’t help that this product gets pushed by a lot of RU-vidrs (not trying to take a jab at Patrick). I would get the MX Master 2S, which has neither of the problems. The only thing you will be missing is the upgraded scroll wheel and faster DPI, that’s really it.
With the IOS 18 bringing call recorder with transcribing and AI options, the Plaud AI recorder will become redundant (not to mention the annual subscription you have to pay extra)
I've been wishing for a MX Master for a long time but can't really justify paying $90-100 on a mouse. But on the other hand, I really don't like buying refurbished... I'm in a dilemma 🙊
@@PatrickRambles no worries. I thought it was a scam at first, because of this, but I went to Amazon and ordered it from there. I do have a question though. Is the 300 mins in the starter pack a 1 time thing, or is it 300 per month indefinitely?
I believe I have to pay for a monthly or annual subscription to use Plaud? And will Plaud’s transcripts (which is what I really need) recognize the different speakers? I had one transcript that lumped together all the speaker’s into one big wall of text (which was not helpful, for my review of the information shared). TY!
Yeah if you want all the features, there's subscription models. It does separate speakers. You add the names and it will assign them accordingly, it's very good.
I don’t think it’s a dumb wallet thing. For someone whose business requires tons of calls, this is a saviour. The only thing that I don’t like about this product is the subscription. I hope you would have mentioned that
I wish it didn't exist, but whenever AI is involved, that means companies rely on AI servers they need to pay to have access to, so subscription models will be inevitable for the time being.
I was all ready to subscribe to this channel and then I looked into the Plaud Note and saw where it has a $10 a month subscription plan. I'm already paying over $50 a month for AI stuff. You think he'd mention that. No telling what else he's leaving out.
“No telling what else he’s leaving out”….Sooo what you’re saying is you’re too incompetent to do your own research or test things out for yourself? Nobody cares if you’re paying 5k for a month for that stuff. This is the first video i’ve ever seen of the dude and it was a high quality video with great options. Fuck outta here with this imma hold a sub over your head cause i’m an insecure person BS.
PRIME DAY IS A RIP OFF! the price on the generator I was waiting to buy went up $40 at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="721">12:01</a> Am on the day of the sale. I stayed up till midnight to get ripped off by Amazon.
@@PatrickRambles not saying it’s hard. I listen while running on a treadmill so it’s not exactly easy to stop everything and see pricing. A retail price with estimated discount would suffice. Of course they fluctuate but as a consumer, and with all of the deals, I want to know how big of a discount is available. Personally not interested in slight discounts as you know there are many items with 10% or less off. Didn’t mean to offend, but I just happen to listen while exercising so my hands aren’t exactly free.
Prime day is a lot of shit. Iv had some things in my basket waiting for prime day coming and they are no cheaper now than they were last week but they have stuck a 'prime day sale' on it.
@@PatrickRambles the hell. Your first instinct was to insult me? Do you read all the articles on a Google search? Don’t you want to search, find the answer and buy? Geez Louis
Yes my first instinct was sarcasm because "chapters!" is hardly a respectful way to comment. Like I said, chapters kill videos, so you won't be finding them here. Enjoy the free content.
