My Favorite Gear

UPDATED: 10/17/2026
Hey gadget fans! This is my current lineup of daily drivers and must-have gadgets that power my YouTube reviews, unboxings, and life as a full-time creator. As I make updates, I'll tag the entries as NEW so that you can follow along at home when I make changes to my line up of favorite gear and products.

Phones, tablets, and wearables

iPhone 16 Pro Max - Daily driver for calls, games, alarm clock, etc. I bought the 17 Pro Max when it came out, but it wasn't THAT much different than the 16 Pro Max, so I sent it back.

OnePlus 15 - I use this phone for a lot of product video and photos.

iPad Pro 11" (2022) - I traded in my MacBook Pro for a discount on a new Mac mini M5 Pro and now the iPad Pro is getting a LOT more usage. It's my couch "computer" which I use every night to surf, watch YouTube videos, email, etc. It's also the device I take with me when I travel.

Apple Watch Series 12 - Tracks my daily activity. NEW

Computers and accessories

Mac mini M5 Pro (2026)- My main workhorse computer. NEW

T-Mobile Home Internet - We don't have cable or fiber where I live (Columbus, Indiana) so this is my best option and I'm very happy with it. Elgato Stream Deck - This is more of a fun desk accessory than something that I use in my workflows. But I do enjoy it. I have a variety of live buttons that show the weather, stocks, clock, and several macro buttons that launch apps or shortcuts. Keychron Q1 HE mechanical keyboard - Yes, I'm a mechanical keyboard nerd and Keychron is one of my favorite brands. This particular keyboard is built like a tank. I every thocky tank. Logitech MX Master 4 mouse - Love the MX Master series of mice and have been using for many years now. OBSBOT Tail 2 PTZ camera - I use this camera for my top-down video content for unboxings and demos. OSEE Streamdeck - The OBSBOT Tail 2 is plugged into this video streamer. I don't use to to stream, but to record. It has a built-in SD card slot. It's a bit overkill for what I need/use it for, but that's the life of a gadgeteer, right?
