10 Premium Desk Setup Accessories You’ve Never Heard Of! 
Хобби
Here are 10 more premium tech accessories you have to check out: ruclips.net/video/XH42FXOyE6M/видео.html
Also, please excuse the shaky footage in some parts of this video guys, it's been crazy busy with the office/studio move and things are slipping through the cracks. Thanks for your support as always and hope you enjoyed the video otherwise 😄
dude you're so busy in the first place a few slip ups we don't care about!
The sand table looks incredibly cool - the nerd in me wants one. But surely it defeats the entire point of a zen garden in that you get the relaxation/mindfulness while you physically shape the sand by hand...
Combine that with the knowledge you spent $400 on it.. it removes a fair bit of the zen feeling
Came to the comments to say the same thing. A sand table is supposed to be low tech and simple so you can relax and lose yourself in shaping the patterns.
Instead of wasting time performing a relaxing activity yourself, save time by having a machine relax for you!
This video is exactly what I needed after redesigning the layout and aesthetic of my office! With my budget I chose to keep the charging cables but instead grabbed some elago cable management buttons which cleaned them up and thankfully didn’t ruin the minimal desk vibe! Commenting just as I’m about to order that rocket notebook! Thanks once again Andrew!
You're so welcome!
Not really premium but I found that old school pencils and a good sharpener really improves my desk. Before I was using ballpoint pens which I kept losing since all my coworkers use the same ones. Then I switched to propelling pencils but those keep breaking. The regular pencils are great! Simplicity that works is beautiful!
True. I'm using my sharpener since I was on college, some 13 years ago, it is one of my treasures that moves with me anywhere I go.
I think my favorite is the Blackwing Pencil Caddy Kit. My wife has really gotten into high-end fountain pens, and those really did not grab my attention, but for some reason those pencils do! I think they are reminiscent of me sitting with my Grandfather at his drafting table as a child.
Fond memories indeed.
This is the video I've been looking for. Thanks for this. Great setup. My favorite on my desk is my M1 16" MacBook Pro! I'm now trying to reorganize my whole home workstation to be more ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing. Your video is great inspiration.
I appreciate your feedback. Enjoy the process.
My favourite accessory on my own modest desk has to be my orbit key desk mat. I like how it doubles as a paper filing system and cable manager :)
A mini version of the kinetic bowl will sell like crazy. I agree with the speaker and an additional white noise sound on the app and it will be bliss.
Cats would love that Drift Bowl! Probably chase and swat at the ball and turn it into a $400 litter box.
I recommend Supernote A6X as an ink-tabled. Taking it with me and writing when I have something on my mind is just super helpful. This a good Time we live in.
OmG is one of the most interesting setups I've seen on RUclips. I loved all your accessories and the way you organized them. I bought a Protractor Desk at Barcelona Designs a week ago and, right now, I'm wondering if I should decorate it with a kinetic sand table like that, because it has really blown my mind. Simply fascinating. Thanks for the tour.
Yay! Thank you! The Protractor Desk looks interesting though you might need something wider for the Drift.
This looks to be a very fun topic to cover, always neat products coming along that can improve your desk setup. Thanks!
I still have the original BenQ desklight it’s 100% one of the best accessories you can get for you desk. It is completely game changing.
Your desk setup is the object of dreams!
Thanks for sharing :)
I'll definitely go that way when kids grow up and the house gets uncluttered.
Love all your ideas 💡 As much as I try to take notes on my computer, I always grab paper 📃 ... love the notebook idea!
Nice video. Wish we all had enough cash to have a setup this nice :P
One point of contention about that rocket notebook: Storing your notes in the cloud is not more environmentally friendly than storing them on paper. Trees grow back, and the only cost to storing your paper notes is space in your home. Storing notes digitally requires electrical energy as long as you store them, and the process of mining metals to build the physical hardware the notes will be stored on is significantly more environmentally destructive than logging and papermaking.
edit: I've reached out to their customer service with my reasons for skepticism and their response was that they've done "no in depth research" to justify the claim that using a RocketNotebook is more ecologically friendly than using traditional notebooks.
My Favorite Accessory is my Porcelain Eye Glasses Holder. I have reading glasses for my desktop so I know where my glasses are every time I sit at my desk. it can also double as a catch all for smaller items.
By the way, Great Video!
The drift bowl truly is rather unique, would appreciate one on display in the office or lounge room.
It's really cool, but imo, its not great for a desk setup, and really deserves to be in the living room as a decoration piece
please keep your cat away from it :)
@@MaxxYurri idk if it would work but building into a desk might work so it's flush
Great list Andrew - love your work. My Satechi leather mousepad is my (new) favourite accessory on my home setup. It's very simple, relatively inexpensive but super classy.
This is great... thanks to you I'm getting some kick ass pencils and -- I don't feel so bad as a techie now! your stuff is amazing...
So much stuff on the desk would drive me crazy!
The reason you've never heard of them is because you've never needed them 😂
This video, as usual, was fantastic and provided me with numerous ideas and options for my own setup. Thanks, man. I am a first-year college student, so everything on my table is low-budget friendly, nothing to mention. If so, I'd think about my Dell Inspiron laptop and my table lamp as my own premium accessory😅.
We all started somewhere. Good luck! 👍
I haven’t upgraded to any premium home office supplies or equipment yet, but your videos are peaking my interest.
Talks about saving the environment and that it's important right after showing a ball getting moved in sand using electricity
But has style tho
There are plenty of ways to generate electricity that don’t harm the environment
@@jawshoouhm Let's not talk about hypotheticals. Most of the electricity is generated via fossil fuels
@@thegreattheone 1. I’m not sure you understand what a hypothetical is, because I didn’t say anything hypothetical. 2. I will provide examples of hypothetical statements: Can you post to RUclips without using electricity? Can you comment on RUclips vids without using electricity? Do home devices like sand ball movers have a significant impact on the environment compared with other energy consumers, or is it completely negligible, making any virtue signaling comments about how the creator is contributing to climate change ignorant and misguided? These are more hypothetical. 3. Only like 25% of greenhouse gas emissions come from electricity production (in USA, 2020). Of that 25%, most comes from burning coal and natural gas instead of renewables. That is the important issue, and the computer you’re typing on, or the sand ball machine someone likes, is not. So maybe we should think in hypotheticals sometimes, and not be too rigid and literal
Yes, because that uses so much electricity
The Caldigit TS4 is fantastic. I love mine. Thank you for sharing this video. definitely going to pick up a mug.
Hope you enjoy it!
The notebook is something I might actually grab up, what an amazing idea!
If you a musician get the Shure SM7B. A good rule of thumb is if your recording only use mic that connect via XLR cable. If it connects with a USB cable your audio will be very poor. For Podcasts though the USB will work just fine. Thanks for sharing all these cool gadgets!
Reusable notebooks are great. When you pass away, every thought and record you have ever made is erased when you die like you never existed. But you saved a tree branch in an industry that plants 3 trees for every one it cuts down. So, you can feel good about yourself.
I love my G915 Logitech keyboard. Low profile and comfortable to use all day. I need the numpad, so it’s black, a white one (if ever released) would be perfect.
i love this video because you showcase so many unique items rather than the same trending 10.
an item i love which is also Japenese actually, is the white line Ivory bullet journal from Hobonichi Techno. As well as their page keeper for my thick textbooks 😂 theyre both perfect for minimalism & bullet journals are always diverse in the way they can be used
Thanks for the feedback! I am amazed at how bullet journals are like art. You can be as minimal, or as colorful and intricate as you want.
My favorite premium accessory is my MX Master 3 mouse because it is very ergonomic and has many features that help me complete tasks efficiently. Never left my side for two years. Techie.
Ah, the greatness of the MX series.
@@AndrewEthanZengwhat is the tray you are using under the mug cupm
I’m digging the pencil holder, looks a lot better than my old coffee cup pencil holder.
It is nifty. In any case, the coffee cup in this video looks and works well too. 😉
WOW! LOVE YOUR OFFICE SETUP AND 'STUFF!!!!!' ...I had to watch it TWICE! My favorite desk accessory is an 11"x9" backlit lightbox. I like changing its message and ambiance. BTW... I ended up using your link to purchase the Rocket Book Fusion; and, when I get a bit more money, would love the Blackwing Pencil Kit sometime later as well. Thanks for this video review! :)
Awesome! Thank you!
Love these videos, working from home I want my space to be enjoyable and functional
Yes to this! Spending long work hours on a space you enjoy helps ease some of the stress.
Pretty cool stuff. Not my style exactly but I like the review process. Thanks for the video.
Great video - Have a question for you: I just upgraded from my 2012 MacBook Pro to a 2019 Intel. Budget, so this machine w/have to do for a while. My main interests of use are my growing desire to improve my graphic design skills & photo editing - both using Affinity Designer & Photo. I'd like to set up a desk/studio to use the new machine like a desktop w/a 4k display. My question is, would you recommend the TS4 or would the 3 be good enough w/the new(er) machine? Thank you in advance - I find your videos very informative!
what screen you are using, and the keyboard/mouse pad?
You should look at the ember mug, got one as a gift and I absolutely love it
This video was great and helpful with I need for my home office. Thank you
Great video… quick question, how did you place the Caldigit hub under your desk? Do you mind sharing the details? I got mine on top of the desk, and it is taking to much space. thanks
Yeah of course! I had the same issue, it works much better under the desk. Grab some 3M double adhesive extreme scotch tape and it'll hold it up no problem underneath your desk. I show it in my desk setup videos :)
Hey! Interesting suggestions, many thanks. The item I'm most interested in is the desk stand with the slim compartments for you macbook etc. Can you tell me where it's from? Greetings from Germany
The best note thing companion for me is my Tab S9 Ultra, perfect for everything really, I use it In university for taking notes but for also downloading pdf files and highlighting text and so on.
That notebook is badass
A speaker in the drift would act as an eraser, faster or slower depending on the music and volume. It’d take a serious effort to isolate the speaker vibrations from the rest of the case. It would be cool but I don’t want to know how much more expensive it’d be. Should be easy enough to test the effect though
Awesome setup! Just curious what monitor shelf are you using? I like the longer width of the shelf.
the grovemade blackwing pencil kit’s been out of stock for a while sadly(limited edition collab)..any ideas on where we could get one? cause it’s super cool!
I’m looking into the hub and tea cup thanks for the new and interesting items and your video in general.
You are so welcome!
Great video mate. Does the dock come with usb c DP? Looked up on the specs it only has one DP 1.4 so wondering how you connected with 2 monitors
Came for the video, stayed for the voice ❤️🔥
would be amazing if the homedics drift bowl was able to be mounted with the sand staying in place.
I love Rocketbook, been using this for years now.
Heyyy! Amazing video! I am currently building up my desk setup, and got some issues alraedy. Maybe you can help me sort this out! First think is what resolution monitor do you use, is it 4k? I bought 4k one, and plug int directly into my 2020 Macbook Pro with Displayport USBC cable and sometimes it does lag. I though maybe its case of my macbook, and maybe i should consider it to replace with M2/M1. Do you edit all videos and productions on your Air M2 Macbook on this turbo setup from the video? Can it handle it?
Thanks for resposne and wish you luck!
how is the new smart notebook environmentally friendly (other than the obvious reason)? what do you do with it when it's time to dispose of it?
like the drift sand.. cool feature although can only be seen from above.
Really love your office and your videos!
Thank you so much!
I love the riser you're using under your monitor, where can I find it?
Integrating song in to the Drift would cause the patterns you get messed up. There is however, a sand and or "glob" speakers that make patterns, also check out how bass effects posting water, it amazing.
how did you mount the TS4 to the bottom of your desk?
thanks!
I am in love with that mug.
And so am I.
I enjoy my MoKo wireless MagSafe charger. Great video!
what do you think would happen to the sand if you integrate a speaker to the unit?
Thanks for sharing and really looking forward to the next home office video
More to come!
amazing sand art display!!!!! i want!!!!!
What is the desk itself? Looks nice!
Andrew, what kind/brand of journal are you using when you're discussing the pencils? Thanks!
It's the 5-Minute journal.
Hey Andrew, great video. Question , the cork coaster the porcelain mug was sitting in looked equally beautiful. Would love to know where that’s from.
Cheers
Hi Andrew, can i know where you've got your riser? i'm looking for one and yours just looks fantastic!
Hi man, i love your desk shelf. Can you tell me what brand it is ? Thanks
What journal are you writing in? Looks fun!
Amazing video! Can you please tell me which is the charcoal grey, light grey and light blue colored TKL keyboard in the beginning of the video? I love the look of it and have been looking for something similar in the market.
It’s the Keychron Q1 Knob Keyboard that I shared on this video: ruclips.net/video/sphFnEUXrHI/видео.html
What keyboard is that with the blue keycaps? I like the layout.
I have a pretty unique pen that people are always interested in called the crushmatic pen, whenever you push the ink cartridge out to use it the pen changes it’s form and almost looks like magic. I never use it, I just like to wow people with it lol
That's the goal. 👍
How did you mount your caldigit hub to the bottom of your desk so flush? Is it velcro?
That monitor is sick
The accessory that’s so crucial but not mentioned at all… what stand is it you’re using for the screen and double shelved? 🤩
How does the Homedics Drift compare with the Sisyphus table? Saw that a few years ago and this seems cheaper
Great video! What is the keyboard you have at 0:24?
Is the clamp on the Benq Monitor light bar really strong?
That drift ball is the coolest
It is. I sure hope a smaller version comes out.
Wow, you have a wonderful setup.
I am curious how large your desk is and what you use for webcam?
Ordered my TS4 back in early June and I’m still waiting.
Loved the video
What lofi beat is playing in the beginning?
Hey Andrew! Can you tell me, what Mousepad do you use? It has such a nice structure!
Really interesting stuff! Where did you get the coffee mug holder?
My favorite practical one is the rocketbook! I have so many notebooks for different segments of work and life and this looks perfect!
The drift bowl would be great....if I had the desk space. Ah well! Thanks for another fun and useful video!
You are welcome! The Rocketbook is really great and eco-friendly too.
@@AndrewEthanZeng Yeah, I take so many notes and jot down so many ideas, I burn through notebooks! I'd love to stop wasting the paper with something like this!
Love the santos!
your desktop with the clock on the bottom left...is nice. can i ask where you got it
Any reviews on the keyboard coming? Looks pretty cool
Hey I would really like to order some of the Hasami porcelain dishes. How were you able to get your mugs being inside the US?
We use caldigits at work. They're decent, I recommend. Just remember that every Mac dock on the market sucks in some capacity
the best article on this video is the 2 tone explorer II
You have some awesome flyng light bulb in the background, maybe some words about it.
What did you use to mount the dock under your desk?
Love it! Which monitor do you have?
Ooo that’s a sweet Cartier Santos
Heyy what’s the watch that you’re wearing?
Beautifully presented as always 🙂 I could stare at the kinetic sand table all day!
You and me both!
Can you used as an usb on Shure MV7 Microphone?
