Hi Becca! In my case MacBook Pro 2020 16", 10 CPU cores and 16Gigs of ram, I got a little low there for my work some times, I'm a Platform Engineer, zero art, well I write but nothing visual I mean. I love this machine. Great vid!! I'm so happy to see you here on your own!!!

[@Blackhonda]

I'm curious if you use a smartwatch and if so which one?

[@LaughingDad]

Becca you rule!

[@Joe-d5o6x]

If you had to pick one between pixel 9pro and iPhone 16 pro? Which one would you pick?

[@daviddifranco]

It's so refreshing to see a KZbinr spend money realistically. Great video! And huge respect for rescuing your kitty!

[@dcdefranco]

Hey, nice username

[@ABN-k4g]

Exactly my thoughts as well.

[@rperez125]

It's nice to see a tech reviewer getting stuff on sale. "This $20,000 computer is amazing" is not useful for most folks.

[@BeccaFarsace]

open-box, refurbished, and used are my three favorite words

[@stere0xide]

100% this, I feel like tech influencers often encourage people to over-spend. People out there buying a MacBook Pro when all they needed was an Air.

[@GrevMarkussen]

@@BeccaFarsace Same! We have this amazing law in Norway, I love to take advantage of: Companies that make things that are supposed to last "well over a year" (like laptops, tablets and phones) are mandated to provide a 5(!)-year warranty. So if you buy a one year old MacBook, you still have 4 years of warranty left ('cause it's not tied to the first buyer). 👌🏻

Ha! Same! I'm sitting here actually embarrassed for some of my own "overspends" lol.

[@rajdeepsingha3523]

love the rawness in this video, your desk setup does not look like it belongs in heaven, it looks like a working professional uses it everyday.

I used to be embarrassed about it, but then I realized it works for me, so who cares. 🤷

[@siddarthdas]

I love this comment. I thought the exact same thing.

2:25 the cat removing your hand to walk over the keyboard was awesome! Moments like these remind us that we don't own cats, cats own us 🤣🤣

[@Brunoxid0]

I love the scrappy spirit that comes though this new side of you. It's like early Casey Neistat. I know you're likely struggling for real, it's not a scrappy aesthetic, and that makes it feel quite close an authentic, like old youtube. Most tech channels are very extravagant and flexing on people. I'm very curious to see where your solo adventure goes. Bell is activated, will be here to see everything happen!

[@7mu777]

I learnt one thing from this video: You don't need fancy equipment to make great videos. Thanks Becca.

[@GabrieleLazzati]

That literally tells you how much tech improved

[@freshestmanonearth]

The most relatable and authentic tech tuber out there atm.

[@IvdW_]

Becca, your content has been so much more relaxed and true since you started going solo! It's honestly been an amazing ride and I can't wait to see what you've got in store for us in the near future. Thanks for the great video as always!

[@BeccaFarsace]

ahhhh duuuuude

[@ak_hoops]

Becca, I've longed awaited a video like this from you! Your approach is always so refreshing.

[@BeccaFarsace]

gottchu!

[@dandalstraphotography]

that's a great word for her videos... refreshing.

[@MLNYD]

The idea of someone who crushes it in the tech community while MacGyvering her setup to make videos is an inspiration to us all. Thx for being that champion, Becca.

[@thezetacore4445]

MacGyvering! Love to see I am not the only person who says that

[@Nerkata123]

Dear Becca, I very rarely comment on videos (guess I've commented less than 10 times in the last 10 years on KZbin) but I just wanted to let you know that I genuinely enjoy your "solo" videos. I'm not quite sure how you do it but it feels like watching a friend giving recommendations and your personality shines through as well. It is a joy to watch them. Especially considering the climate we all live in right now. Thank you and keep at it! P.S. Thanks for keeping it "real". No one needs videos like these where every single item is virtually unattainable for 99.9% of the population.

[@GeetMadan]

I really appreciate that the summation of this video is not “I have the most expensive version of everything I and I have been using it for a month.” Really refreshing to see someone talk about longevity of products. Thank you for being relatable and saying the things that regular folks think when spending money

[@azenyr]

I like that you are not obcessed with a single ecossystem or brand. You play around with all brands and are not afraid of trying things outside the ecossystem. Sometimes, forgetting brands and just buying something you like, is great. I dont care about ecossystems. I buy the best device for my needs and budget, any brand is fine. Helps to stay open minded.

[@cinderellapoison]

As soon as you said " I dont actually need that much power, and it would be just a silly use of that much money" i gave you a like and subscribed... Most of the content creators today would passively convince you that you need the latest and greatest to create something great. This video is proof that its totally the other way around.

[@Doursof]

The most realistic EDC I’ve seen in a long time! We need more de-influencers like you on KZbin. Keep up the great content!

[@msinc]

Post-Verge Becca is killing it. Respect.

[@spencereeves]

Too many KZbinr reviewers are obsessed with chasing newness, so it's so refreshing to see your setup that isn't packed with a ton of brand new stuff, especially using things past their "typical" lifespan. Just shows that no one really needs the shiniest, newest tech to create great work! Also gotta love the A7C + Samyang combo!!

[@ChrisBartlett]

Your videos are so well done. You are so real and refreshing. You set such a great example for those that may be considering doing videos themselves. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in a way that is so enjoyable.

[@DKeigo]

Becca, never stop being real. I've been following you on the Verge for years now and you are still my most trusted tech reviewer! I'm so glad you went solo and I can't wait to see how your channel evolves.

[@orangawam330]

Used, Refurbished, On sale, On loan, you're the one of the most relatable-to-consumer tech KZbinr, but still deliver high quality contents. Love you, Ødegaard 🌿

[@paolosarangaya5356]

Another awesome video as always! That classic Becca vibe is all over it - you’re always so real, not holding back about snagging stuff on mega sale or picking up your gear second-hand with a little damage or a scratch. Keep doing your thing

[@Fierrosporcelular]

First ever EDC that it's not boring. Loved every item.

[@aa-xh2cg]

Loved you on the Verge. Love you solo even more! So glad to find this channel, wishing you huge success. You deserve it!

Becca I've absolutely been loving your solo content (which is of no surprise to me)! So happy to see you have 122K subs already!!!

[@5132tissai6201]

I love the vibe of your videos. They're informative AND they're also super friendly. It always feels like I'm having a short break with a friend who has loads of interesting things to share. Many thanks for your work.

[@Northcityproductions]

I have 2 Benq monitors and have the same flickering issues on the "Lower" end one (Without side skirts). I too have not been able to figure out the issues and it's helpful to see someone point out flaws in products!

[@jonathanrhunt]

Love your content Becca! Love your honesty. Keep it up!

[@LuisMarquez80]

I have an M1 Macbook pro with a benq monitor too. I had the same flicker problem and it seemed to stop when I changed my docking station to a different brand. I had a dell dock station and my caldigit seemed to fix that for me (or at least i think so).

[@BeccaFarsace]

!!! what caldigit are you using??

[@ChrisMcQueen]

I also had this problem with a monitor, different brand, but I added a UPS that solves it for me

[@LuisMarquez80]

This is the first video of yours that I’ve ever seen pop up on my page and it’s quite funny how many commonalties we share with our every day carry including our camera set up, phones earbuds, etc. great video looking forward to future ones new subscriber!

[@noodlotgg350]

Becca, i just love how REAL this video is! No last tech straight from the factory or fancy stuff, just the things you really use and some other creators might get a grab on them. I love it! Keep the good job!

[@10past12]

I trust Becca's views because she sticks with products long enough to know them intimately, flaws and all. I know I have stuff that might not be the best but they suit me and my uses (and most importantly my budget!) Also love her getting up to check the lens during the video and not editing that out to make it more slick, just real and authentic

[@rdwebagency]

So happy to see you doing your thing Becca! I love your outlook on tech and always valued your opinion. Also side note - would love more tech non tech reviews, as I needed a new backpack and now I've been influenced ahah.

[@Snarkyafterthoughts]

This was a great video. A realistic approach to quality products. The beautiful photography really shows that it's your passion. Picking the Samsung also means you care more about how music sounds than all of the secondary features on earbuds.

[@TheFactaa]

So glad this got served up in my feed as I wasn't aware you had your own channel! Love your stuff and super happy you went out on your own - you'll kill it!

[@markdorlas1330]

Thanks for this Becca. Once again a very honest and sincere review about all your stuff. Cool to see how you 'make do' with all kinds of tech that is not perfect. And, as always, I love the personal vibe you give to your vids. You're the type of person I love to hang out with and that makes your videos such a pleasure to watch. Can't wait to see more. Lots of love from the Hague...

[@ryanmorgan5677]

I used to live in Bozeman, MT back when Mystery Ranch made all their packs by hand there. A few of my friends were sewers for them. If you ever get a chance to buy a pack from that era they ere even better build quality. I've been using one of their newer packs for a carry on for many years now.

[@BrionneOlsen]

Cool video. I got a 2021 M1 Pro 16 in MacBook Pro used about 3 months ago. Between it and my M1 iMac, I don’t need anything newer. These still hold up and performs well.

[@julesbertolino]

Most comments highlighted it but it is so refreshing to see a tech KZbinr talk so intelligently about how they buy tech. A product is not so good but not in a bad condition so you won’t change it just for the sake of upgrading the tech, it’s pretty rare in the tech world and I guess it’s good both for environment and for our minds since it removes the urge to always have the latest tech

[@yeverett4533]

You are excellent at creating and editing videos, one of the best I've seen!

[@jk8344]

Love the obviously worn/loved/used products! I’m sure each stain, scratch, and scuff just adds to the story.

She's my favorite KZbinr, exactly for the reason that this video is. Very close to me, not arrogant, not a know-it-all, and down to earth. Which other KZbinr would admit that their MacBook keyboard has two keys that are stuck? No one I know. Becca is like a good friend who simply knows more about tech than I do.

[@aries0949]

I really like the way your videos are very homey and relatable. It's like watching a close friend telling how their day has went. So enjoyable~

[@garrettdollar]

Great video! Glad to see someone other than myself still using an M1 laptop with 1TB internal storage and 16GB ram. I use the MacBook Air and it's still an amazing machine. I feel like I'm "supposed" to upgrade, but I don't feel like I "need" to.

[@mauromerconchini]

I find it really funny that you went out of your way to mention how many things you picked up second-hand or on deep discount. I can't think of any other tech creators who have so many things in their every-day carry that was bought used, which is pretty relatable to a lot of people watching. PS: When it eventually comes time to replace the BenQ, look into ultrawides! As someone who's been using one for years, it's life-changing! So much room for timeline view and extra windows!

[@Demasx]

Not sure if it's the same issue, but on occasion my high end monitor will go fuzzy for flicker too. When I change display ports, it is fixed until they next time I need to move them back. I believe this is caused by a slightly leaky cable and/or port. I need 10' long cables for my setup so it's hard to find reasonably priced ones that even work at that length, so I'm living with it for now. If your flicker is fixed by changing ports and you have a shorter run, you might want to just replace the cable.

[@jpbarcelos]

I really hope you get all the success you deserve on your channel. I’ve watched you since your started at the verge and really saw your potencial. You’re top 5 tech KZbin for me. Probably top 3.

[@robbarrett8318]

Flickering monitor : I had this ! check the basics like the cable. Seriously … change out the cable & make sure the cables aren’t too close to a power cable, or another source of interference eg. There isn’t a microwave too close to the monitor (including on the other side of the wall). Good luck & awesome video.
