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!

[@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). 👌🏻

[@mole1596]

Open-casket?! ​@@BeccaFarsace

[@passerby2487]

​@@BeccaFarsaceand black and cyber once a year? 😃

[@gominuke]

I can’t believe I’m watching an edc video that makes me feel totally fine with what I’ve got and not wanting to spend money on upgrades or unnecessary gear ❤

[@NoOverhead]

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.

[@BeccaFarsace]

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.

[@arkantochiron]

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 🤣🤣

[@yash2d-fl2kq]

I think she loves becca's working desk

[@CharlieCharlie88]

She definitely said gurl instead of girl 😂

[@ElBeeEss]

I know, right? Outrageous feline behaving like the Queen of Sheba!

[@adamburke4738]

Recently I was dog sitting and this dog decided to lay on the bed but put a back leg on the laptop 😂 these things 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

[@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!

[@rhenceocampo3253]

The most relatable and authentic tech tuber out there atm.

[@alichahin]

Exactly

[@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

[@BeccaFarsace]

Dear keyCHRon, I have no idea where I got that "t" from. But I promise I won't mess it up again!! xo, b

[@sogwatchman]

I have two of them. They're affordable and awesome.

[@ItsLikeAShammy]

For a second I thought it was a brand knocking off Keychron based on how similar it looked!

[@DurgaPrasad-ks9em]

I thought you own a fujifilm X100vi…

[@rgb-plays]

I actually jumped back in the video because I thought I heard you call it Keytron. Happens. ;)

[@JohnDonmoyer3]

They were actually called Keytron at the time their first keyboard was launched on kickstarter!

[@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.

[@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.

[@msinc]

Post-Verge Becca is killing it. Respect.

[@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!

[@ThrowbackGaming1]

Just wanted to say that your video was super refreshing in comparison to the super unrealistic tech hauls (glorified ads). It's a reminder that consumerism doesn't have to run rampant and you don't always need the latest and greatest just to have it.

[@Addladdadd]

Best thing for us viewers that u left the verge. U rock!!

[@btcpyr]

It’s refreshing and down to earth to hear that you bought a lot of your gear at a discount, love it. At the same time, if you have the opportunity to upgrade your gear, especially your Mac, I hope you seize it! You certainly deserve to have a Mac with fully functioning keys and no scratches on the screen.

[@Fierrosporcelular]

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

[@jonathanrhunt]

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

[@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.

[@mathiassiebert1217]

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.

[@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

[@Muhammed.Yaseen]

After this video, I'm like can I possibly sub to this channel like 3 times and like the video like 10 times? You're so US, you know? We as viewers can connect to this. REAL stuff. Keep going, you!

[@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!

[@itsalexclark]

another solid reccommend for monitor would be a used lg UltraFine!

[@pexarglobal]

Thanks Becca for the nice review ❤❤❤ Junebug looks so lovely in the frame! 🤩🤩

[@oslego]

It is always refreshing to see what tools tech reviewers actually use in their day-to-day life and work. Thank you for sharing!

[@17an28]

Oooh I love the work you did for the verge. I'm glad you're solo now! I'm definitely going to be tuning in.

[@IlhamMaulana-mx6qn]

this is the kind of video most normal users need, not “2 weeks review maxed out Mac Studio”. I wish you more successful more than ever!

[@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!

[@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!

[@EmmaKAlexandra]

So glad we’ve grown & innovated enough to finally put magnets right next to hard drives

[@kalawiw]

This is the most genuine daily tech video by a tech youtuber. Not intimidating nor makes the viewer feel like a failure sh8t

[@timurakhmadaliev7739]

Love that you're getting so much stuff on sales, it's so down to earth and realistic. Also, that Buds 3 review. Could you please please please do it?

[@atxrich]

Watching this has me thinking 2 things-- 1) The Verge lost a great one and 2) I am soooooo glad you are doing your own thing and the production quality and style has you written all over it! ❤

[@RockLuo0719]

A small Chinese tech lover & content creator here. Using the exact same Mac with you. Love you content👍

[@JulioAguilar01]

I love the trasnparency on budget costs and also the picks that truly feel personal. Great video!

[@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.

[@internetfrnd6496]

This video was refreshing. Love seeing tech videos that aren’t just talking about the highest spec tech out there.

[@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!

[@silvrsurfer]

Becca is such a vibe, I love how her personality comes out even when shooting a technical video

[@markphillips1439]

2 minutes in and I love how real you are about value and how you can get good enough stuff used or on sale. So much more realistic

[@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

[@jk8344]

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

[@Peter.Fields.]

I’m gonna tell you a few words story, when ever Marques (mkbhd) is pushing a video on KZbin, I click immediately or try to watch it the minute he upload, You ? You’re my next top 2 content creator that I’m clicking every time that you’ll upload a video on KZbin! Thank you to be there ! You’re a very valuable person ! And I love your insight and all 😊😊😊

[@Peter.Fields.]

Well, there’s also Casey Neistat, but that’s an other story

[@ppr824]

Becca your videos Rock one the best KZbinrs that offer down to earth reviews Please keep up the great content

[@defaltgamer1524]

Most realistic, practical and relatable everyday tech ❤️. Loved the video as always.

[@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~

[@jackhill1775]

Becca’s got sponsors! Woo!!! So exciting watching your solo career grow 😁

[@JPRoselino]

Useful and not obvious commentary combined with nice editing and cute cat footage. Great video!

[@biasedthoughts]

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.

[@changez77654]

This is my favourite video of you yet. I wish more people take away the consistent messaging from your gear that you dont need the latest and greatest and not even brand new to enjoy what technology has to offer. Thank you

[@evidencenutrition]

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!

[@pandours9065]

I love the style of your videos. It's quite unique, love the images, the smiles and the informations. Thanks for letting us know that you buy your top things on sale too. It's great to hear that almost nobody needs to have the latest and greatest. Thanks Becca ❤️

[@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.

[@darklight1919]

Really happy for you Becca. Big fan from Verge days. Great content.

[@tsuehpsyde]

I love content like this! Show us the tech and how it's actually used in real life. =) Keep up the great work!

[@Bmontepeque11]

I love how you don't have the latest, greatest and most expensive tech. Because the truth is buried deep inside MOUNTAINS of marketing, you do not need to spend crazy money to do things. And I LOVE that the A7C is your main camera, that was the first review from you I saw. That's part of the reason why I love small cameras in general, and why the A7C lineup in general are my dream cameras (alongside the Canon R5 lineup)

[@aaronhinze]

I have the same MacBook Pro setup. And I agree, still have plenty of power for everything that I need!!!

[@DavidandtheQueen]

So good to see an ACTUAL ORIGINAL take on this kind of video.

[@Hahnck750i]

You are pretty much the most relatable tech youtuber right now... aside from having the zf alongside the a7c haha. Truly inspiring

[@hiyg]

Nice to watch a no BS, realistic "let's talk about gear" video. Subbing. Thank you!

[@leflate]

I love that this isn't an ode to consumerist and buying shit.

[@JasonTropp]

Definitely checking out the Warm photo setting now. I had no idea it was even there! Thanks Becca 📸🤳

[@therubbscreative]

This honest approach is so good, thanks for doing you and for being free of the “perfect influencer” syndrome.

[@craigjohnchronicles2504]

Such a good real-world real-user vid. I was a BenQ fan. Not everyone has an unlimited budget to upgrade their gear every other month. I Bought an LG Ultrafine 5K display for photo video editing. It’s all of $850 on BH Photo right now. I was ecstatic when it priced at $1,100 three years ago. I do try to swap my cameras every three years, to get at least $1,000 in “used resale” value. Now using a pair of ZFs. I just can’t get over the image quality, AF Ability, and $2,000 value new. The $1,200 refurb price is absolutely crazy good value - and it’s very solid as a video camera. I didn’t feel that way at all about the Z6 II. I love that you can adapt nearly every legacy lens ever made from nearly every maker to nearly every mirrorless camera. Cats walking across keyboards. Real world problems while editing. Of all the comfy places in our house, my cat used to sleep on my keyboard.

[@ohmytosh]

I just got an A7C mki recently and I’m loving it so far! Fantastic to see it as an a-roll camera.

[@dougphi]

Whatever hair product you use should be considered a part of your everyday tech.

[@jonnowitts]

The best part of the ripper review was when you pointed out after it how much you said it 😂 SO funny!

[@A.Andreychenko]

This video so warm and cosy, I love it. Never leave comments, but can not to say this to you. Thank you

[@MichaelHauri]

Love the authenticity you bring to your videos! Been following for years and you’ve never lost that. Seeing what you create with the tools you have is amazing. Makes me feel so good that someone is also staying tuned to what’s on sale. 😂 Also, love the outdoors vibe you bring. ☀️

[@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...

[@mitch_ios]

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.

[@_xch12i5_6]

I like your attitude and the overall vibe of your video. Not usual for a someone who is reviewing tech, but pleasing and reasonable.

[@purplewingsz]

authenticity is through the roof in thi video. looooooooooooooooove it!

[@marloncelso1638]

That face at 2:03 while the screen flickers is priceless. @BeccaFarsace

[@angelomosquera6463]

This video is amazing, the quality, both of audiovisual and of the content itself are very high. You remind me of NewEsc when he was starting. Keep up the great work, you're rocking!

[@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.

[@JeremiahPeoples]

This video is super refreshing

[@namanvasal8759]

You are brilliant Becca. Keep doing what you're doing. You're inspiring & the hard work you put in is visible with each video. All the best!

[@TemitopeSamuel]

I like the practicality of going with something that works, buying the most powerful that you might never use half of the functionality-doesn't make financial sense. I also had an idea as I watched the pexarframe. I can leave a note, screenshot it and send it to the frame in case my roommate is wondering where I went to.

[@ArthropodSpidey]

This video was so relaxing to watch. Thanks Becca.

[@nongroupthought5076]

Becca is just amazing been watching her videos since verge days

[@alpha013]

Hey Becca, you're awesome! Love everything you've made with The Verge and now on your own.

[@UpNorthMI]

So well done, Becca. Love your work. And that adorable kitty!

[@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.

[@EggTamago7]

Phone + Keys + AirPods are very much my killer light combo. I rarely need my wallet since my phone covers all that stuff anyway, but literally every time I've left the apartment without my AirPods, I've regretted it. Also your cat... hnnnnnnngggggsooooocuuuuuuuuuuuute 😭

[@jcarlos0519]

Love how humble you are and showing us that we don't need to break our wallets to make content

[@babooo24]

great video, i want more! Keep keeping it real. Such a breath of fresh air when you have a content creator who isn't reviewing the top of the range gear, fully maxed out etc which most people don't even want/need!

[@4nupam]

One additional reason to watch all these videos coming out on Becca's channel, apart from the obvious (excellent content, a very pleasing tone, to the point logical & useful opinions/arguments,etc) is the sense of community. ❤️💪 Hats off to everyone whos being there for one another, being a part of the journey. the likes help, the subs help, the mic definitely helps. 🫡 Keep going @becca 🍻

[@ej_whistleblower]

I really liked the honesty and how you are spending your money wisely. Hope you will be wiser in future! Good Luck and cyaa!

[@frontlinebreakthrough5723]

i bought the exact same computer a few months ago. i've been a little worried lately that i shouldnt have gone for a model so much older. but man, seeing your video was all the confirmation that i needed. wild to think.

[@DaytonPruet]

Awesome daypack. Not sure if you know, but Mystery Ranch was founded by Dana Gleason from Bozeman MT 2000. He also founded Dana Design backpacks in 1985, which was sold K2 Industries in 1995 and then to Marmot in 2005. Dana Gleason has been designing and making awesome packs for decades!!!

[@gmosworld]

Probably the best EDC video I've ever seen. Shoutout The M1 Macbook with the crack on the screen and the sticky keys. This is so real :D

[@laughyourashevilleoff2546]

Love that you have branched out on your own! Always loved your work at The Verge, and really enjoyed your interview on the Waveform podcast. This is great content!
