@brownmasao 2 месяца назад

The keychron is too expensive for what you get...if you don't care about via/qmk compatibility, then go for an akko which are normally at least 50 % cheaper.

@clementfilancia3053 3 месяца назад

Great video, loved it ! Please make more indeed

@smaza2 Месяц назад

vertical mice are honestly one of those things where if we redesigned things to be ergonomic from the start, we would be using them as the default. just like if we redesigned keyboard layouts from scratch qwerty would never be the default

@DigitalM00nlight 4 дня назад

If typewriters never existed and we designed computer keyboards from scratch, they'd look more like the Dactyl Manuform and using optimized layouts for every language like RTSHD for English, NEO for German, etc;

@philippfakler 3 месяца назад

interesting devices, the ring is something i could use so thank you for mentioning it!

@BetterCreating 3 месяца назад

Yeah, I wouldn’t have bought one I don’t think: but after they sent it and I tried it: I think it’s a great investment! This in my view is the best quality & value option out there at moment for a smart ring. :)

@ChenKen991 День назад

My issue with bone conducting earphones is the volume being really low when it's even a little loud around

@TheArtisticBiker 3 месяца назад

On the Boox, I'm currently looking into the Nova Air2, specifically because I can read Kindle, Nook, and any other e-reader software, I can draw with it, but mostly because I should be able to run Notion on it. In that way, I can switch to it for my evening reading, planning, and shut down, but without the blue screen issues keeping me away. That kindle can't run Notion is the thing that stops me buying it

@BetterCreating 3 месяца назад

Nice: yeah it is nice for this use case I think: and Notion works nicely on it. :)

@karenorgan6203 3 месяца назад

8:00 I love the four macro keys, I use Discord for role-play games and semi a dedicated push to talk button. Also play shadow run so I’m able to have a ¥ symbol. I also also have a dash (-) and ™. So I’m very happy.

@N33k5 2 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing though I am fairly certain you are the only person I have heard pronounce Boox as box and not books. 😂 I really did find your experiences interesting and will definitely keep them in mind for my own potential tech upgrades/updates.

I know it’s a tech channel. I watch it all the time. And it’s a strange ask. But I love the astronaut shirt. Where could I find it?

@BetterCreating 2 месяца назад

Haha love that, thanks for asking. It’s from a brand called Percival… but I found it in a local charity shop! :)

This is fun, I own many of these things for my work setup at home. I have the Logi Lift for traveling for work, and the large sibling the MX Vertical for my permanent setup. Handshake mice FTW. I have AfterShokz headphones, and while they’re great, they do not play well with latest iterations of Microsoft Teams… have your mic muted during a call? The Aftershokz annoyingly beep in constantly to remind you of it. I don’t have that particular model Boox tablet, but have the Tab Ultra - worth every penny!

@BetterCreating 3 месяца назад

I returned my shockz as didnt find they were right for me, but cool device. Go nice crew!

@makcraft 3 месяца назад

A question: are these super high keyboards are good for your wrists without a wristband? I can see that your wrists are 5 cm above the table just to type - it looks weird and feels like it will strain your wrists quite a bit.

@DigitalM00nlight 4 дня назад

Proper typing technique is to float your wrists over the keyboard, your wrists shouldn't touch any surface. That being said, the standard staggered keys on a slab is suboptimal and there are better ergonomic options like the Ergodox (an ortholinear split) or the Kinesis Advantage line.

@RobertBarry1969 Месяц назад

Hmmm my cat is called pepper too! Incidentally you can get the equivalent of a BOOX Tablet Note Air 3 C E Ink Tablet from poundland - it's a paper pad and costs far less. Thanks for the review though. I am going to stick with my old kindle and a piece of paper. I know, such a luddite.

@BetterCreating 3 месяца назад

Ah nice! Hi pepper. Ha. Well yes, you are absolutely right: don’t waste your money if it’s a waste!… obviously! 😂 ps. I also recommend that a sundial is cheaper than a smart watch and I believe you can run most of the Android App Store on the back of a napkin if you focus! 😜👊 serious, thou: if you actually would want a tablet, I’d go for a refurbished 2018 ipad for the same money. Thanks for watching and for the dry comment!

@virtualunreality8326 3 месяца назад

@@BetterCreating I was kidding around of course 😀Thanks for the tip about the Ipad. You know, I am on the fence about whether android or the apple IOS is better. I suppose each has it's own pros and cons.

@bruhzzer Месяц назад

that's not a 65% keyboard as it has a function row and macro keys, it's more of a modified and reduced tkl (or 80%)

I love how most of the comments are along the lines of “you shouldn’t be reviewing this stuff or this stuff is too expensive” Guys do you understand what review videos are ? They are not tailored to your personal preferences and/or what you currently use If they were You would already have every item that was reviewed on the internet
