For me, I’d add a foldable laptop stand (lots of options out there) to lift up the laptop screen if you’re bringing an external keyboard and mouse.

[@TheThaiLife]

I really find a camera bags to be the best Tech bags, due to the modularity and adjustability. I carry my 16"MBP M2 in mine, my M1iPad Pro 12.9, lots of adapters/cables, an Elgato Stream deck that I actually use for productivity (macros), I don't even stream. Also, large over-ear headphones. It also has a place to slide over a luggage rail and it also works as a carry on. It has much more padding, tougher materials, flexibility and is cheaper. The one I use is a LowerPro Protactic 450AW

[@DojoOfCool]

All the presentations I've seen of Apple's new Continuity Camera feature show it being attached to a Macbook but it doesn't have to be. For musicians like myself wanting to Zoom or make videos of overhead on a piano or camera in front you playing guitar it works for that too. I got a regular microphone stand with a boom arm, then a iPhone holder that screws onto the microphone stand. Now I can wirelessly place the iPhone over the my piano or in front of me playing guitar for lessons or making practice video. My MB has my microphone plugged into it and I can just record or do Zoom and no jumping up and down like when using the iPhone by itself. The only drawback so far is you can't play with the camera setting like you can when using the iPhone by itself.

[@kwahaus]

Good stuff as always. One question. Do you also travel with an iPad? How about showing how an iPad can act as second monitor when traveling?

[@yourbusinessvalue]

It's interesting you brought up the Netgear Nighthawk. I almost bought it a couple of weeks ago but decided for a couple more $100 I could by an iPad Air with cellular and use it as a hot spot (which is what I did) and get a new iPad, which also can of course be a second monitor via Sidecar. Not a criticism just sharing an alternative approach. Do you use a travel laptop stand to bring the laptop to eye level? I use the Vajun...

[@jpmavichana]

I recently bought the Logitech MX3S and MX Keys Full Size keyboard. They are both great addition for my 16” MBP M1

[@usmanmajid7837]

Any connectivity / lag issues?

[@myharryface]

Gary ... I think the massive amount of portable charging choices from Anker are both cheaper and better than the Apple charger. I recently got an Anker 735 Charger (GaNPrime 65W) and there is a 120W version. It's got USB-C and A. So one device to charge all my stuff on a trip. So good.

[@javtimestwo]

I agree 100%. The anker brand is fantastic and that very, very small Anker charger is among the very best.

[@TheThaiLife]

I agree, it's literally hard to watch people show off an Apple 2-port USB hub when you see what better gear you can get for even less money. I give Apple money when they deserve it and I do it a lot. Just dropped 4K on the M2 Macbook pro (ouch), but these adapters are sad.

[@191.]

Apple chargers are a bad joke compared to Anker.

[@JSt3pz]

The only issue with that charger is it doesn’t have the apple logo

[@LeeKAspinall]

Same goes for Ugreen. I have 100W four port charger and am very pleased by all the ports

[@WilliamCochran]

Use my iPad Pro as an extra screen with the MacBook. I also am a fan of Timbuk2 bags as they are a great size, full of pockets and storage places and also are waterproof for the Chicago weather.

[@manbuckets]

Always love your videos!

[@hhoebeke1]

I find a laptop stand (roost) a must have - esp since you’re already taking a keyboard and mouse and I also like to pair my Mac (M1 air) with an iPad…

[@ashmakes21]

This is perfect timing as I have to take my laptop to school for the first time tommorow

[@IamSean.]

I dont have the pro i have the M2 air, so no HDMI. With this is use a 14in acer portable screen that plugs in using usb-c. Its very thin and light weight, works great. The only other thing i would say would be airpod pro. this allows privacy and you can use it as a mic for those meetings.

[@CVX1000]

Bruh😳… 6:17 sooo close to denting that shell.

[@GeorgeTasioulis]

Is it possible to use TouchID on the Apple Magic Keyboard to unlock your MBP? Or is it tied to the iMac?

[@rm1825114]

No headphones? You’re that confident in just the Mac speakers? Kudos!

[@Rossanderson-zm7ck]

Nah it is criminal that you left out AirPod pro/(max if you can afford them) that noise cancellation is amazing

[@MarkMcLenaghan]

My accessories are a Magic Keyboard magic trackpad( because I do not like mice) and a 24” Samsung tv with an Apple TV. This is my office setup.

[@gergemall]

Great microphone. Great video. I kneed your help. Thx beautiful bag.

[@thecrankyhermit5364]

Great video! Will be on the lookout for some of those accessories -- I'm also a fan of skins/chargers/sleeves. Do you prefer the 14" MBP in Space Gray over the silver?

[@userx4923]

silvers holds up better over time

[@gergemall]

I love the keyboard

[@richielentz]

Hey Gary, HELP!!! I have been trying to figure out for a week now what I should get for a docking station for my new 2022 Macbook Pro 13" M2. I have tried buying two so far, and neither have been able to get me three monitors (they both have only supported screen mirroring. Any suggestions?

[@emilio21088]

Nice accessories - i would maybe add a MacBook stand. Love your videos

[@TheEverydayDad]

I sometimes bring a stand with me, but I've been trying to leave it at home to save space in my bag, but definitely something that is a good to have.

[@LucGervais]

What is the microphone that you are using?

[@09gpeters]

Throw in your iPad Pro for side car?

[@jeffone]

A Roost laptop stand is a must for me so I am not scrunched over.

[@HansenSoFly8]

What mousepad is that

[@ElAmir]

I heard "Gaming" beside a mac book 😁

[@jashanveersingharora]

3:21 "Gaming", lmao

[@flicks1887]

Thanks and BTW j love your videos

[@TheEverydayDad]

Thanks so much!

[@TheThaiLife]

Man, I guess 3 comments here. $800 for a HUB to play WoW? You can get probably lower latency by using your iPhone 14 as a hub. I do it all the time, in Thailand, not even the US and it's flawless. Here my $20 unlimited plan includes it for free. For $800 you can't find another carrier? Dang man, I am so sorry to say this, but your travel setup and accessories are SO SERIOUSLY LAME. Even the listerine tabs won't make this setup not stink. Liked, subscribed, but come on man. You've inspired me to make a video because I guess my travel gear is epic and God level if this is what you are using as a half-million sub KZbinr.

[@Mo-xv1wx]

What is name this in table

[@TheThaiLife]

I really don't know how you can recommend Apple's 2-port USB-C adapter when there are infinitely better options at that price and look better. 35 watts is really, really bad. It's like $30 for a 65 watt. It hurts my heart to see people encouraging Apple by buying their actual bad products. 17 watts/device. So like earpods and trickle charging your phone?

[@ADixxx17]

so you can connect ps5 controller tomacbook ? wooow dont know that till know

[@itslukebro513]

Awesome vid ❤

[@TheEverydayDad]

Thanks!

[@itslukebro513]

@@TheEverydayDad Hey Gary, just a suggestion but try out the MX Mechanical mini for Mac, it’s a productivity beast! Paired with the MX Master 3, it’s unbelievable! Maybe in a future vid? Thanks!

[@ronweasley5573]

did he say gaming?

[@oakley1261]

If your cell service is that bad, why wouldn't you change your service to AT&T if it's better? And then Tether? Instead, you are wasting money on a Cell plan, AND a Mobile Data plan? Like, I understand all of the other things. But that just makes NO sense to me at all. Oh wait ,the Charger. Get something better from like Anker. Overpaying is just overpaying.

[@ryancrouch3238]

If only the bag held the 16 inch version

[@191.]

Apple:"You can use your iPhone as a webcam" Also Apple:Proceeds to put a giantic oversized notch into the Macbook dispays for no reason. But Apple, right? Gonna be "innovative"..

[@aayaan1935]

Honestly they should remove the webcam from MacBooks, the screen would look way cleaner.

[@themahanto]

I just got my 14 Inch M2 MacbookPro today...these things are getting very difficult to pronounce :)

[@composimple364]

I think you are confusing us with M2 MacBook Pro and M2 Pro MacBook Pro. You should have mentioned excluding the 13 inch MacBook Pro

[@sukapakwu]

But i’m already broke after bought the m2 macbook pro

[@mooooooooooomooooooooooomo6829]

why do you say m2 accessories?? when its the same thing for m1??????

[@youtubemoneyhater643]

Not one of these things are interesting. A mouse and keyboard are standard, the charger is bad and overpriced, the bag is pricy and there are better budget options. The rest is mid as well

[@GoKaioken]

Another sound effect intro produced from your mouth…..

[@ChicanoPhotographer]

NOPE!!!

[@tulioporoyro9229]
