What’s On My Desk Summer 2019

Posted on July 10, 2019 by Louie Tran Posted in Daily News, Gadgets, Geek Life, Workspaces Leave a comment

Been awhile since I’ve done one of these. I normally have a MacBook Pro 13 2018 on my desk but I just recently got back into PC gaming and also sold my Xbox One X a few days ago. I’m still keeping the Sony PS4 Pro and Nintendo Switch for exclusives though. So here’s what’s on my desk!

  • MSI GS65 9SE – currently my main rig for work and gaming.  This thing is an absolute beast and can handle all the new games you throw at it. My Macbook Pro 13 inch is now assigned to being a travel laptop and Final Cut Pro machine.
  • HP Envy 32 – 32 inch display 2560×1440 resolution. I think I’ve had this for about 5 years
  • Sony SRSHG1 HearGo Bluetooth Speaker – Small but mighty. It can connect USB, bluetooth 3.5, Wifi, Google Cast… you name it. This thing is amazing and sounds great
  • SteelSeries Apex 7 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard – This is the best keyboard I have ever typed on. No joke. I don’t even care about the gimmicky lights!
  • Logitech MX Master 2S Wireless Mouse – I finally upgrade from an old Logitech M510 and the difference is night and day. Love how comfortable it feels to use and the horizontal scroll wheel is a game changer for working on spreadhseets. I have this at my desk and an MX Anywhere 2s in my laptop bag
  • Xbox One Controller (White) – for gaming. I sometimes use the PS4 controller for PSP emulated games
  • Sony RX100 Mark V Digital Camera – I just recently upgraded from the Sony RX100 III earlier this year and I’ve taken that across six continents. I am planning on taking this camera to 7 in a year or two. This camera is amazing to carry around on trips especially when you want to take better quality photos than your smartphone.
  • iPhone XS Max 256GB Space Gray – Trusty iPhone that goes everywhere with me. It’s a smartphone that does it’s job and does it reliably. Running the developer version of iOS13 and it paired with my Apple Watch Series 4 smartwatch

Heloideo Battery Power Bank for iPhone and USB C Android Phones with Built in Lightning Review

Posted on December 19, 2017 by Louie Tran Posted in Daily News, Reviews Leave a comment

My review of the Heloideo Power Bank for the iPhone and USB-C devices. This has the lightning cable and USB-C connections built right in which is cool. Only concern is that I don’t see this labeled as MFI certified (made for iPhone) so that might cause some concerns. This however charged my iPhone X without problems, as well as my Samsung Galaxy S8+ I apologize for the crappy quality of the video. I was sick and I don’t have all my camera equipment unpacked from moving!

iVoler 75W USB Type C Charger Review for Macbook Razer Blade Steath and More

Posted on June 11, 2016 by Louie Tran Posted in Daily News, Gadgets, Reviews 3 Comments

My review on the iVoler… I keep calling it iVolver in the video! Really good alternative to the stock Macbook and Razer Blade Stealth charger as it also allows you to charge 3 other standard USB-A devices on top of the 1 60W USB-C Port.

My only gripe is that you need to buy a separate USB-C cable and you need to make sure you get the right cable that will work with your USB-C device so please do your research on the cables!

Hootoo Shuttle USB C HT-UC001 Adapter Review

Posted on April 11, 2016 by Louie Tran Posted in Daily News, Gadgets, Reviews 4 Comments

If you have the Macbook Retina and are need an HDMI output or just a USB-C to USB-A adapter, skip everything else and pick this up. At $79.99, it is the same price as Apple’s USB-C AV adapter but it does much more and is a much better value. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that this also works on my Razer Blade Stealth as well as charging it with the Innergie USB-C charger and the stock power brick. Totally Recommend it!

You can get the HooToo Shuttle Here: http://amzn.to/1S051kx

Notes:

– 3 USB 3.0 Ports and Quick Charging Capability
– 1 USB C Port to charge your MacBook, ChromeBook, and even Razer Blade Stealth!
– SD Card Reader
– HDMI Port

Like:

– Well built, excellent quality and feels solid but light weight at the same time
– A MUCH better value than Apple’s USB-C AV Adapter at the same price
– Works with the Razor Blade Stealth!
– Handled 3 USB-C Hard Drives all at once with no issues
– Quick Charge capability is a plus

Don’t Like:

– Should be included with all USB-C capable laptops 😉
– No other cons
