The BEST Accessories for YOUR New MacBook!

[@BryceKoebel]

I can't wait till I am booking more jobs so I can finally afford my very own cleaning cloth ☺

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

Nothing like the Apple premium tax 😂

[@KrishhJay]

😂😂

[@aidenmcwhinnie7968]

Bro truee 😂😂😂

[@anythingunderthesun27]

😅 havey

[@vr2766]

For lapt stands, I'd highly recommend Nextstand. A bit more foldable and portable.

[@davidbeckett1565]

A very informative and approachable rundown on all of those gadgets

[@adnanerochdi6982]

You've come a long way since I first knew you few years back, it's great to see you hundreds of thousands of subs ahead since then!

[@user-tg7oo1yp8w]

Gadgets!! Thank you so much, I made so many notes and ready to do shopping!

[@icy8672]

This was a really nice video! thanks for the things for my MacBook! it really helped!

[@djonanelsuave]

thanks for making this video, very helpful.

[@annakhashchyna5373]

Thank you for a great video and useful recommendations!

[@PeterV]

Gadgets! My favorite pouches are the Evergoods CAP1 and CAP2! Love them!!!

[@Jeff-oo9br]

Very useful tips for my MacBook, thanks for sharing! 💻

[@SpenceClarkSR]

GADGETS!!!… love the accessories bro!

[@ivanpalovic9930]

Gadgets. Almost at 200k subs! Been here since the early days, it's a well-deserved achievement by you.

[@JanelleBracken]

Gadgets. Thanks for the helpful information!

[@intravenus5676]

Gadgets! love your recommendations

[@crolidegames]

The new Keychron keyboard looks sick, adding some of these to the wishlist. Thanks!

[@riez1150]

Just bought the same Keychron keyboard and it's one my best purchases ever!

[@y87_99Firebird]

Ive debated on going with a Magic Keyboard as I have an Anger variant that clones the older Apple Keyboards but it has more of a clicky tactile feel but I love the Touch ID option.

[@veersinghrana9030]

I only have Mac for 4 years. I did not know we need so many things.

[@nicolasb.henry294]

It is mainly for the Air

[@kat090106]

Gadgets! Great video.

[@PTR2K]

Im so torn between the UGreen powerbank and the anker 737. I have the 16 inch macbook pro so I usually use the 140W charger. Not sure how long 100W will take to charge it

[@user-vv1ed1hf3u]

Thank you for sharing. Any tips on keep keyboard clean? And Do you use any screen protectors?

[@danielleamber7353]

All these GADGETS! The CalDigit is a constant for productivity but I must say the Keychron K3 Pro is one of the best items on this list. Still a no for me on the polishing cloth though 😅

[@hockey_hungry]

Idk I like my vulcan maja

[@Mustafa67561]

hello thank you for the review my english is very little i wonder screen size for daily use vs macbook air would you recommend?

[@markewebber1]

Gadgets! This is an interesting video! Being a decades-long Mac user I’ve amassed several useful “tools” (as I call them) similar to what are shown in the video. I’ll add that Plugable, Satechi, WD, and Logitech have excellent products that also fulfill needs for Mac (and all other) laptop and desktop users.

[@fredtheeman]

Gadgets!!!🔥🔥 Much love from Kenya!!

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

Thanks for watching Fred!

[@ThisGuyRightHere353]

Gadgets. Great video! I am getting a MacBook soon after using a pc for a while. Are there any apple compatible monitors that you recommend?

[@cameronalisterlee]

Any step-by-step guidance you can share on how to do a dual monitor set-up with an M1 Macbook Air?

[@TheSantiagomonti]

amazing video!

[@elizabethfranzen2165]

All these GADGETS are great! Thanks for your video. Can you tell me what brand is the wooden dock that you have your laptop in toward the end on the right side of your desk? It also looks like a winner. Thx!

[@radkaviskova8156]

Really helpful video, esepecialy that tiny travel charger! Thanks. And a small advice - please don't use public charging places, it is unsecure, it can be hacked, hence dangerous for your devices. :)

[@gergemall]

Thank you

[@ArrowsTech]

gadgets you just got yourself a new subscriber

[@tlukins]

Gadgets, I enjoy your explanation of the Gadgets with links down below. I'll subscribe and see what else you come up with. Thanks

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

Appreciate it. New content is up!

[@Sonderax]

Looking to buy the new 15" M2 macbook air. think ill get some of these to go along

[@karamazov75015]

Nice black bay 😉

[@lilyyu1840]

Awesome, very useful information, thank you for sharing 👍

[@kendrahines5577]

I love the ring light in the back can you link it or tell me where you got it?

[@javtimestwo]

Having an iMac is a huge flex. That is on the wish list for sure. Great presentation here and some very practical accessories for the MBA The wipes for cleaning the MBA are so important. If only Apple charged $4 instead of $19 for their cloth. Keep up the great work!

[@eleventeen5051]

I'm going to have to expand my EDC bag with all these recommendations 😂

[@akajkyt]

Gadgets… nice video!

[@garycralle7696]

Hi Andrew, thanks for your straightforward, informative video. Would you be able to recommend which brand (or specs) of 2 to 3-foot UBS-C cable would be best to connect a Ugreen Nexode 30W Charger to a MacBook M1 Air (2020) to avoid a very slow charge and possible overheating? Your link goes to a cable that's currently unavailable.

[@revitupautomotive]

Gadgets, AirPods Pro!! For sure

[@danowen9853]

Where did you get the vertical MacBook stand from that you show when you hook it up to the dock?

[@jehza77]

Can we use a spigen screen guard on the M2 macBook Air . Are screen guards recommended for MacBook airs or not ?????

[@markockwell]

Hi Andrew, Nice selection of " Gadgets " Most work with my Asus Laptop too..... Good Video Mate....

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

Glad to hear it works with Asus too. Thanks mate!

[@elodibor4964]

gadgets watched this in anticipation of my Mac

[@felipejulian]

hey bro, do u compare the ssd's T-Force M200 with the LaCie Rugged (the black model), which do u think is better for the new macbooks m3, I need for video editing.

[@lursf9316]

i bought the twelve south stand last sep for my macbook air and now 9 months later it just slides down when i place my laptop on it. i'm going to try a different stand

[@keensz3340]

Does that mouse need a dongle connection or purely just Bluetooth?

[@ameerhamzawattoo]

is ugreen nexode gan30w is a good option for macbook air m1?

[@scenerytv2949]

hi Orochi Mouse good for Macbook Pro M2?

[@huy1248]

Gadgets. Very informative. Thank you.

[@yildiz7482]

Solid list, solid recommendations. Thanks for keeping our wallets in mind too lol

[@stevesuarez3737]

😂

[@kaibonne7138]

Is this the macbook air in blue or an Macbook Pro 14"?

[@andryweb3]

It’s Mac book air m2 13? Do you have 16, 10 core and 512?

[@greenyamo1321]

Is there an adaptor to put into a USBC on a MacBook Pro to use a MagSafe 2 charger?

[@garryhall9660]

U green make a great power cube with 3 USB C ports

[@artsauer5770]

very good

[@carolinesanderson5950]

GADGETS!!! Hey Andrew great job as always. I too love my Keychron K3 V2., my Minisopuru Hub for my Mac mini, Orbitkey - nest & desk mat & keyring - they are Aussies so I have to support them ;}, Alpaka pouches are my favourite pouches for EDC stuff & I use Zyron GAN chargers - they're great. I'm gonna check out the mouse you suggested - I don't like the Apple mouse or keyboard much other than convenience for pay i.d & I guess for portability. The TB4 dock looks great as well & will suss out your suggested pouches. I probs have enough tech bags but I'm a bit of a techaholic lol. Cheers for the tips :)

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

Awesome suggestions and yes love Orbitkey! Thanks for sharing Caroline 😁

[@StevenW42]

What kind of mechanical watch are you wearing?

[@johnrickenbach2813]

gadgets great vid

[@cinefyl]

Awesome list - does anyone know what the stand/holder is shown first at 10:17? It's like a little cradle slot he placed the closed MB into...

[@Iearnwithme]

Twelve South Curve Flex :)

[@daneoates8099]

I think it might be the grovemade wood macbook dock

[@RobertD024]

Gadgets thanks

[@gregcroydon2465]

Thanks for the video. Where is Australia is the dock $400 every where I’ve seen so far is about $700?

[@AndrewEthanZeng]

US$400! So yeah roughly $700. The TS3 is still a great buy for less

[@HiveMind2024]

EXCELLENT

[@keithbloemendaal4724]

124 notifications on your messages! Bruh! LOL Also, would love to know how you use Notion, I am just getting into it and it is quite overwhelming. I am just prelaunching my channel/podcast so am setting up my home studio now. Great accessory vid, thanks!

[@iu1191]

Gadgets. Great video for ANY road warrior actually. Loved it even though I don't use a MacBook haha. Thanks, for making the vid.

[@S2eedGH]

where is the mixer that shows in you thumbnail ?

[@RyanChelberg]

Forget the gadgets, Andrew over here quietly flexing his watch game. I saw a field khaki, black bay, and was that last one a reverso or a tank,? Hard to tell cause you don't have a straight on shot. You need to run a watch collection video :D

[@Joseph_Leong]

Are you using a matt case sticker for your mac? Able to recommend?

[@Reykja]

I want to know that too, @Andrew Ethan? :)

[@mjesus4621]

10:08. Where did you buy the wood laptop holder? I want it

[@daneoates8099]

I think it might be the grovemade wood macbook dock

[@DavidTurner11]

Does your Keychron sound magical to all the people around you? :D

[@bradNWshipp]

Gadgets ❤️ low tech but what would you say are your go to pen/s for note taking? 1:01

[@corrado891]

What Color does the MacBooks have in your video?

[@SKReid]

Aussie! Yay!

[@rawkinpmb87]

Useful 👍🏼. Intend to use my recent M3 for content creating.

[@shawnrobidoux]

How come there’s no review on the drum pad thing? You have it in the thumbnail but not the video. I got Al excited to see what that was about. lol

[@mariemuller838]

DPI has nothing to do with smoothness, it's the relationship between cursor and mouse movement. 18.000 dpi just means for every inch the mouse moves the cursor moves 18k dots on the screen that's noting that has any benefit for most people for daily productivity. The felt smoothness of the mouse is more determined by the polling rate.

[@mattb300]

Also, supporting a company that doesn't support MacOS...that mouse was a big mistake.

[@onelargeblackcoffee]

this made me buy the GaN charger

[@mikekutzner7416]

What about a monitor?

[@michaelalexander6864]

The expense of buying a Macbook never ends with the purchase of the Macbook. You cannot own one of these laptops without spending an equal amount of money on unnecessary accessories like this. I mean, a sleeve specifically for carrying it to the cafe? Thats insane 😂 Also every time I walk into a cafe there is always a handful people using Word on their Macbook drinking their flat whites. Buy a Macbook for $2k and spend $1k on a bigger battery and external drives rather than spending $1k in total for a Windows laptop with double the storage and battery of that $2k Macbook. Owning one of these is a very expensive hobby indeed. But we do it.

[@aabidh_faizan]

Gadgets 🙌🙌

[@dapuebla09]

Gadgets!

[@harisasidhar]

how do you make money to buy all this after buying a brand new Mac Pro ?

[@ladydiannedorado-poliquit6592]

Gadgets😮

[@Dajustisce81]

Gadgets. For the price of new MacBook 14inch would it not be sensible to do macmini and a touch externalASUs screen… thereby reducing cost…only downside is power but I think you can charge via usb c on macmini

[@AmazingVibes1000]

who can i connect 3 monitors to my macbook pro

[@chillinupinhere]

where is the macbook case? the one in the thumbnail

[@0Logan05]

The Cadence and Queen’s Drawl…😂.. What’s Next, Ebonics?..

[@thilak4671]

How to install Premier pro Crack in macbook air m1

[@harshnarayan8164]

Beware! Orochi v2 isn't programmable on a mac, since synapse is not supported.

[@MikoajWalczak]

2:07 yeah X D

[@narpwa]

I agree with you on everything but not the magic keyboard, it feels like typing on a flat overcooked pizza, is expensive and oversized. the only good thing about it is the fingerprint reader. in my opinion, a better keyboard would be a budget 65% or 75% mechanical keyboard with silent switches for office use.

[@aboobakrkaraG]

Can these accessories work for a 2019 MacBook Pro 13 inch

[@Deoffred]

It’s said that there isn’t a MacBook that supports USB3.2 gen 2x2 but don’t the current MacBooks support thunderbolt 4 / usb 4?

[@markewebber1]

I believe the MacBook Pro M3 has Thunderbolt 4 USBs, but I’m not sure whether the Air M3 has T-bolt 4 or 3.

[@corgikun2579]

Hi friend!

[@njfootball4953]

If I would buy all those things I would be poor right now 😂

[@tammysmith9544]

[@jeremyotero4575]

gadgets,, what about that stand that stand the laptop up,,, what it that? why is it standing up and not laying down?
