Sometimes the answer to optimizing your own setup... is to simplify. It's certainly not for everyone, but worth a shot to boil things down to what's important. 😊
100 percent
Couldn’t agree more. I’ve had setups with three or more monitors, dedicated speakers, a huge custom build desktop, and various other things. None of them made me as happy as just having my iMac and only my iMac.
your desk is 10x more cluttered than it was. the TV setup was much simpler. I approve of the Coke Zero can though lol
I like having my stuff there and clean, people like it simple but I just cant@@rickystafford7433
Non gonna lie, the distance from yourself and the laptop screen is driving me nuts.
I'll give it a couple of months, then you'll have an external display again 😉
Dude it’s content just waiting till be made
@@Segevgabyou nailed it. I can hear him repeating the same cons he does here as reasons for switching back to an external monitor.
i get ditching the oled tv but that laptop display being that far away is going to be bad for your eyes probably ideal with some kind of monitor
Definitely needs a monitor of some sort. 27" would be perfect for this setup
This got to be one of the goofiest setups iver ever seen....
Yeah it’s gonna be a no from me haha. That photo next to the laptop takes up more space than the screen does.
Glad I wasn't the only one who felt this way. Definitely seems like a huge downgrade. Trimming the fat and creating more clutter.
Ya, gotta say, when he says "simplied" setup, this seems like the opposite when the desk is utterly covered in stuff. heh. but everyone is different! *shrug*
Lol it still looks cool and cozy at the same time
More simple than a screen and pc there isnt, this thing is more complicated and not confortable at all lmao
I can understand going from 42 inch to a smaller monitor, but 42 inch to 14 inch is too great a leap for my old eyes. Ken, take care of your eyes while you still can. lol
That laptop screen far back like that might be a bit challenging on the eye sight bro but the Vision Pro solves it haha
I love the cozy set up! I've been trying to get my room to looks like this for a bit and seeing your setup gave me some inspiration on how I can do that more :)
The keycaps look incredible!
love your channel man! Thanks for sharing your desk set up. ✌🏽👏🏽
Maybe something like a 24-inch or 27-inch monitor would be a good medium? smaller than the tv but larger than the laptop display! :)
Love the bochi the rock wallpaper btw ❤
I don't necessarily understand or agree with the choices made but the video is still very well presented
Love your setup. And looking forward to getting rid of my Monitor for the Apple Vision Pro in the future.
I would need at least 27inch screen...vision isn't good enough for this setup.
Studio Display video incoming 😊
This set up is wild, expensive and the perfect combination of productivity with style
DUDE this is exactly what I did (except I had a big external monitor but got rid of it) to use just the MacBook Pro 14" display. The difference is that I also have my iPad Pro 11" on the right as an external monitor via Sidecar. I don't feel as crazy for doing this set up now that I have seen you do it. Keep it up! Add an iPad as an external monitor via USB cable if you need extra real estate.
I cannot comprehend going from a 42" screen to a 14" screen. It is completely insane.
Hooray for the trackball!!! One question though. Why the M575 and not the MX Ergo?
Hello, Wow, Congratulations Cool 👍👏👏👏 I am impressed.
Great vid. Fellow Logitech trackball user here - 20+ years.
1:16 - Me being more jealous of the Mika PikaZo art book than anything...
Of course, I've been existing on a no-budget 'setup' for 15 years, the last 4 years of that being on a used ebay HP Pavilion 2017 laptop that I couldn't even update beyond the first Win10 install. I've used a Samsung A71 (& any of the NekoCake MoonDrop wireless earbuds I've gotten) as my main media consumption & only my old laptop as my 'work space'.
What tech influencers usually never get is that the majority of their audience simply cannot afford the vast majority of the tech they review or show off. If I was an influencer, it would be for those of us who aren't considered in the vast majority of these videos. While I would NEVER in a million years say that ANYONE on a low budget should EVER buy an Apple product, I do appreciate Ken's attempts here!
I REALLY like the wallpaper can someone link me that? ❤5:51 also love the setup ^^ little bit cluttered tho imo.
Maybe the vision pro isn't that bad? I'm conflicted now. Anyway, personally I can't survive without at least a 24" screen. If it was smaller I couldn't see things too well with my glasses off. 😅
Where do I get that desktop wallpaper?
As a dual monitor guy I can't imagine trying to use a laptop screen so far away 75 percent of the time. Just got an OLED monitor for $800 which is the most I have ever spent on something for my setup but I love how good it looks. As for saving desk space putting the monitor on a good swivel arm solves the issue.
mark my words, ken is gonna get a Studio Display XDR for the macbook later this year
TRACKBALL GANG!
dam the loop deck is it 499$ i need that macbook stand . nice video !
I love you’re still using the m1 max macbook pro. I still use my M1 MacBook Air for academic writing 😁
These things seriously last a while!
Going from 42" inch monitor to 14" but also having Vision Pro makes a lot of sense! Without vision Pro i don't think i could use anything less than 27 inch monitor haha
5:54 tutududu max verstappen 😂
Yeah try and use a monitor, don't worsen your vision or atleast bring the laptop closer. Reading text on a 14 inch laptop that far back isn't good.
My set up revolves around a Lenovo x220 😃 it’s ok
I would be a little concerned by the distance eyes/14" screen.
This desk setup feels like utter chaos with all the trinkets and gadgets, while working on only a 14" display at 3-4" feet away from your eyesight seems excruciating! No screen real-estate also would drive me nuts for work, multi tasking, or gaming needs.
To each their own i guess. Yikes. But i still enjoy your content and production value! cheers
Got rid of the big screen but added a bunch of little knick knacks on your desk seems anti-simplifying. I guess it's content for future if/when you add external monitors again.
first, also i wanted to mention 23 of my favorite tech creators posted video at the same 5 minutes
That's awesome bro.
love the subaru figure, i love vtubers so i respect you more now lol
Great Desktop setup, Love It! 😍
Posted too early... Not April 1st yet...
2:54 There's no way I would use my setup without a monitor like that... that's so far away 🤣
I would not ever take out a 42 inch oled screen from my desk~!!
W office!
The Red Bull makes it.
its just a phase. he'll get over it soon enough
Bro doesn't actually edit on that lol. That's hilarious.
Editing on a MacBook is super common. They come with Good processors and have very color accurate displays.
Its the one Situation where apple is the best bang for the buck option.
Yeah, blud is definitely not using the vision pro for more than 6 months. It just seems to uncomfortable having to have that huge, bulky, heavy thing on your head for more than an hour or two when you're working. No way you're using this long term.
yo
Not even a monitor? Damn, that looks so far for a screen that small. Whatever it works I guess
Can i have your old setup
Oh c’mon this was an apple vision video basically
Yeah, no.
14" is not enough of a display.
You can never go wrong with simplifying.
imo your laptop screen is too far away for how small it is. I think it would cause eye strain
bro that laptop screen distance aint it
Love this setup! Stay focused and pro for when you need more screen space. Kinda keeps your work vs leasure time separate. Good to have that boundry
ny NEW gooning desk setup
So it became more cluttered. Thumbs up for individuality i guess.
Denki is mega based for the bocchi desktop wallpaper also you look really professional with your glasses back on either way very handsome guy ;)
just do a linus and put the oled in the window, or on the sill, only laptop at about 3.5 ft away is just stup!d, if its closer sure it can be ur main work monitor, but its just terrible to look at a 14 in display that far away, u can literally see ur neck moving forward to read
swear I almost thought this was april fools at first
From denki to janky
Is Bocchers your waifu?
Such a ridiculously expensive setup.
so leading in with "going minimalist" but then later showing the vision pro is the equivalent to "cleaning your room" by just shoving everything under your bed. why not just own the fact that you swopped out a 42" tv with a virtual screen that's a big screen for your mac, plus even more screens. so there's even more clutter, it's just accessed via the vision pro instead of a tv
How does a content creator spend 25% of his time spent Video Editing and researching? Is he just that efficient
can i have your keyboard
I can understand wanting to declutter, but you will *NEVER* convince me that a 14" laptop monitor is the best choice for a desktop station. Nope.
Also, it is my life's work to trip or punch every single person I see using that Apple headset monstrosity.
Noooo!!! Kentama is a drawing instead of moving avatar.
What the hell did I just watch
I’m sorry but this makes no sense unless it was only an excuse to try and justify the AVP. Not only is it more cluttered but you have a small 14” screen sitting way too far back. At least get a 16”. I’m all for simplifying but this isn’t simpler in any sense of the word.
Cozy = cluttered
Ok
that looks so cluttered
Nah man
Certainly not minimalistic
The way you need to look up and squeeze your eyes tells me you'll not love this setup for very long. Also your neck will thank you
Replaced big nice screen with 3500$ virtual same size screen , adding more junk everywhere and calling this as simplifying? Sorry but this is stupid AF.
Lmao thats the dumbest thing ever... The laptop is so far away... Downgrwded for no good reason. Everything just sounds like cope trying to justify it 😂
So instead of upgrading he downgraded... okay....
Exactly. Weird choice.
It's not a downgrade if it works for him.
@@catgirl_evaI bet it doesn't even work for him as well as he's making out. He literally just needed an excuse to make a new video. In a few months he'll have a TV/monitor again 🤦♂️
You guys are just bunch of haters XD. He might just like this way, but even so, I think it’s upgrade with the Apple vision. I don’t like having so much too, but it’s just me. I sometimes have too much stuff and I need space sometimes.
@@tpye_volt2310 Theres having "Too much stuff" and then theres just taking away stuff for no reason whatsoever(other than this strange video). I'll let you work out which one he did 😂
Worst setup I have ever seen
oh you’ve cluttered your desk with a bunch of random useless stuff? we can see you hunching over and squinting. bad for your back, friend!
"laptop only setup" that one is a nice joke 🤣 I don't think you know meaning of "laptop only setup"
So lame
You lost the monitor and added 42" inches of concentrated ultra nerd, and man it looks terrible. You really need a monitor again, even if its smaller one, otherwise your workspace looks so lobsided, 90% weeb 10% professional.
setup is huge downgrade ngl all them gadgets on ur desk ruin the whole simple vibe n that 14 inch laptop that far away aint good for ur eyes health
Looks ugly.
Sorry but your new setup looks worse. The old one was much better. I think you've overthought on this one i'm afraid and went backwards 🤦♂️
