I honestly think having dual monitors is so worth it in terms of productivity. The keyboard/display combo seems like a cool idea but you might as well get another display for that price.
I think at $250, if you don't already have a nice mechanical keyboard and you don't want to add a ton of space to your desk it makes sense. With its normal MSRP and/or if you've already got a good board, I agree.
He's recommending great gadgets that are the type of "niche but great" things. I can tell he put a lot of effort into the selection, especially since there's such a wide range of options. People know a second monitor is an option, he would add no value by saying "get a second monitor". (and he wouldn't because he doesn't like them) There's someone out there that will benefit from being made aware of that device. No value would be added if he recommended another monitor.
It also looks like something that with a screen protector, could make sense for luggage / big backpacks. If you have some extra desk space while out and a 2-in-1, I can see myself using the laptop in tent mode as the side screen with info lookup and the KB screen in center for the word processor. Much nicer KB than any laptop, and less desk space than laptop + portable screen _+ keyboard._
Quinn you are a Master. Excellent gift guide. Can not say whether or not I’ll get these as “gifts” but I want 90% of the loot. That flashlight looks great.
wow, Quinn, a gift guide with actual brilliant gift ideas and top notch comedic writing? Thank you for your work. You are alright in my book for an audiophile
Great video! There are a lot of ideas here. As someone who has run a gift shop, I can tell you that the best gift a man can receive is either a good wallet or a good massage.
Vionentus smart wallet PERIOD. about 90% of the wallets that claim to be genuine leather are made of bonded leather, they are the only brand I encountered that offer full grain leather for such a low $
Cheers to all other Germans watching this Channel, as there is apparently quite a few of us ✌️ And great video Quinn, I already planned on gifting two of the items on your list anyways but found a another good idea :)
@@snazzy We Germans are quite concise consumers. We like things that are build the right way but we also want to know their weaknesses. It aligns well with your channel culture and I guess that’s why so many watch your channel. It’s one off the most balanced, honest and entertaining tech channel I know of. Keep up the good work Quinn and let us know if you need more German tool tips. For your Christmas check out the knipex mini wrench, same size but I prefer this type as it can double as full set of wrenches.
Wow this is a really wonderfully put together list! It’s a rare for me to find a Black Friday deal guide like this where it’s filled with a ton of items I’ve never heard of before and they’re all within a reasonable price range for what they are! Thanks Quinn for putting together such a great list that’s filled with actually interesting items🤓
I always get so excited when you publish a new video because you bring a level of care and thoroughness to your content, not to mention wit and humor, that simply cannot be found in many other places (if any). You can always tell that you're genuinely not only interested but passionate and just geeky about the things you talk about and its truly refreshing.
I am _fascinated_ by the fact that Quinn is so obsessed with vacuum cleaners. Well I don't know if obsessed is the right word, maybe he's more of a vacuum afficionado, a connoisseur even. Not that there's anything wrong with that, many of them have tons of interesting tech. It's just kind of unusual, more quirky than weird. You do you!
I can personally testify to the excellence of the Aurora A8. I wish the design was less cylindrical, and I could wish for a different button setup, but it definitely packs a powerful punch light-wise. I have bought 2 of these and can highly recommend.
Your gift guide/cool gadget videos are honestly some of the best. All of the other ones are sponsored bs or just crappy tools they though together to make a video and get add revenue. Yours is stuff I actually kinda want to buy 😂 and I have! And I’ve always loved the products! Keep doing what you’re doing!
Fun fact: Both the Wera screwdriver and the Knipex pliers are from my hometown Wuppertal, which is basically the capital of tool making in Germany. Greetings from a German viewer!
Greetings from Germany, had to listen to the WERA Kraftform TURBO several times. Jokes aside, i really like the list with quite some affordable options
Since the iPhone 15 Pro Max has USB-C, I’ve actually thought about connecting the Kwumsy Keyboard to it. I am mobile all the time as an Uber eats DoorDash GrubHub and Amazon Flex driver and sometimes sometimes it would just be really nice to have both extra screen space, and a keyboard to be able to communicate with customers on the road a lot easier than typing into the phone all day
I have the smaller version of the Unicorn pepper grinder (I think it's big enough) and it is truly a huge addition if you're a home cook. Cannot recommend enough.
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. Subscribed. Happy holidays to all. Love from Saudi Arabia. PS I bought the playdate and I hate myself because the price is outrageous but hey YOLO.
I have had my Time Capsule collecting dust for years and have a Silicon M1 Mac Mini and other desktop Macs as well including my 2006 Mac Mini which I am playing Diablo 2 on. Thank you for showing how you can bring an old device back to life. I will buy the 2tb ssd and the flashlight when I have the money. Then I have to FIND the Time Capsule somewhere in my bedroom and I can use it to make the continually nagging backup requests that Apple is obsessed with. Have a great Thanksgiving and I love your videos and your beard is fine. I am 71 and have grown a beard but I break out in acne so I cannot have one for long.
it's funny to see him talk about the high price of stuff like the moft stand but not for the 200 external dac. the curse of knowing how audio prices get I suppose.
I always enjoy your gift guide videos, legitimately well put together list of fun stuff. Bought flipside as a gift and am eyeing the flashlight for myself.
Am German. You're welcome. And regarding pepper mills I absolutely adore my cheap hand cranked coffee grinder. I grind a ton of spices for Indian food, bbq rubs and whatever else and it is a beautiful black anodized beast. The handle makes it extra easy to crank too. No more cramps trying to grip that slippery wooden mill that costs double the price and mills a fifth in the same time. Geez, that was a lot of emotional outbreak for a spice grinder. I need to lay down for a while.
Even when i know almost all of these stuff i wouldn’t be able to buy in my country, i’m still love watching these videos to see neat tech that are underated
The fan on the ISDT 200X power station is EXCEPTIONALLY loud. Their fan curve also makes no sense what so ever, it seems to be just on or off. And when it's on, it's audible above everything else in the room. There was clearly no thought put into the sound of this thing. AVOID.
Wow, this is the first video I've ever watched that back-to-back recommends me products that Im interested in getting or at least think are cool. Great job dude!
It doesn't get even warm, much less hot. Additionally, I've felt the active cooling covers the back of the wireless charger. Phone stays much cooler than on my official MagSafe puck.
I have a S8 Pro Ultra and I love it, on a house with 2 cat's is great to keep everything neat and is a HUGE plus the smell of clean floors. Basic maintenance is easy, the app works really well. Can't complain. I've justified the price by thinking of how much it would cost to hire someone to do the job of cleaning the floors and it already paid it self.
Man this is such an awesome list of things I never knew existed in the niche ways that they do. I’ve ordered the Pinecil after procrastinating on fixing some stuff for a year or two, and I’m actually exited to work on those projects after it arrives. Thanks Quinn :)
Glad to see you enjoyed my recommendation! Definitely is a super useful "chungus" of a charger, and I think you convinced me I need to pick up another!
"with out all the sponsored expensive crap" - go to minute 3...
The entire video is a sponsor... Affiliate marketing.
That's not the same thing @@Aarron-io3pm
fr at least keep shut about it u know
Those are sponsored ones
No… DONT.

Yep, but that is part of these guides - something not obvious.

Desk space is the main limiting factor for me, so this is a really great alternative!

I love the Playdate.
It lets me crank it wherever I am!
Yea!!!...... no wait
But with a PSP you can play nut outside...
Great for on the toilet..
I love playing with toys in the bathroom
literally the worst one. you can buy a surface pro for 50 dollars and its a full computer
Quinn you are a Master. Excellent gift guide. Can not say whether or not I’ll get these as “gifts” but I want 90% of the loot. That flashlight looks great.
If I could only have one thing, it'd be the flashlight. It's so great.

Great video! There are a lot of ideas here. As someone who has run a gift shop, I can tell you that the best gift a man can receive is either a good wallet or a good massage.
Actually, that makes sense do you have any recommendations for a high quality wallet? I need to replace my BF wallet it's so old and torn..
Vionentus smart wallet PERIOD. about 90% of the wallets that claim to be genuine leather are made of bonded leather, they are the only brand I encountered that offer full grain leather for such a low $
Found them! They also have a slot for AirTag and RFID blocking so cool. Which design do you think is better?
I own their VN100 for few months already, looks like new
A good massage of my wallet, I’m in.
Quin’s quest for clean floors is the stuff legends are made from.
He's so dedicated!
Don’t be fooled, it’s just him parroting for sponsorship money.
@@iVolkswagenYou do not know me and my true affinity for vacuum cleaners. I’ve loved them since I was a kid lol
$1200 is insanity tho
@@snazzy and everyone here should watch John Wilson's show. Great episode on Vancum's in the most recent season.
Really appreciate a product guide that isn’t sponsored and/or the same 10 lame items everyone else does. Thanks and happy thanksgiving!
And a happy thanksgiving to you!
Cheers to all other Germans watching this Channel, as there is apparently quite a few of us ✌️
And great video Quinn, I already planned on gifting two of the items on your list anyways but found a another good idea :)

It's actually insane how on point this video is, I literally want to buy most of these!

This video is the standard for what every gift guide on TH-cam should be
I can personally testify to the excellence of the Aurora A8. I wish the design was less cylindrical, and I could wish for a different button setup, but it definitely packs a powerful punch light-wise. I have bought 2 of these and can highly recommend.

So cool! Thanks for watching, freund.
the variety and nicheness of these products is insane... and i'm sold on almost all of them. keep making these videos quinn!
Thanks!!
Greetings from Germany, had to listen to the WERA Kraftform TURBO several times.
Jokes aside, i really like the list with quite some affordable options
Thanks so much for watching! Appreciate your support! Tschüss Tschüss.
just ordered the Pinecil! its exactly hat I was serching for for a long time :)) thank you !
It's great, you're gonna love it.
This list is so dope.
Especially the torches and tools
Can confirm, the RovyVon A8 is phenomenal. Have multiple of their flashlights.
This video could have been twice as long, and I’d still be watching it
Ahhh the door to door vacuum salesman has returned!
You might not be allowed to enter Germany again after using the ungodly unit "Pound-Feet" to describe a German screw driver 😉
Hahaha touche
This was genuinely useful! Please make more of these videos!
Quinn’s horniest gift guide yet! I love it!
Quinn is every year closer to became real santa :DDD
I shall embody him someday.

Although you can also get an iPad 9 on sale now and a keyboard case for almost the same price all considered.
As a regular amazon driver idk how you do it with your own vehicle then again were I'm located at every town is super spaced out
The panic at 1:30, the sheer fear in your eyes, magnifique.
Rovyvons are legit lights
Your fun sense of humor earned my subscription
Definitely getting the flashlight for my dad. He works in dark spaces often and outside, all those settings will do wonders for him
I bought the flashlight last year because of this video. It got so much use this weekend with 3 days of no power due to the hurricane.
I have the smaller version of the Unicorn pepper grinder (I think it's big enough) and it is truly a huge addition if you're a home cook. Cannot recommend enough.
It's not the size that counts it's how you use it!
The airport recommendation was 10/10, never thought about it, thank you!
Finally a video that recommends some techs that I’ll actually buy. Thanks!
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. Subscribed. Happy holidays to all. Love from Saudi Arabia. PS I bought the playdate and I hate myself because the price is outrageous but hey YOLO.
Forget ads, I hate how much this video series makes me want to buy everything in it. Love your work Quinn, keep it up 😉.
I have had my Time Capsule collecting dust for years and have a Silicon M1 Mac Mini and other desktop Macs as well including my 2006 Mac Mini which I am playing Diablo 2 on.

Thanks so much for your comment, George! Time to break out the time capsule indeed! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. :D
I've been watching your videos on and off for so long that it feels like you're seasoned, old hand TV presenter.
This was one of the best tech gift lists Ive ever seen, I was genuinely interested in almost every item
One of the one unique and useful lists I've seen out there. Nice work Quinn.
it's funny to see him talk about the high price of stuff like the moft stand but not for the 200 external dac. the curse of knowing how audio prices get I suppose.
"if your scared of fractions and freedom" 😂😂😂😂
You're the next Billy Mays
This is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.
This is so much better than 99% of this type of videos
“The magnum sprays its love everywhere”
😏
I always enjoy your gift guide videos, legitimately well put together list of fun stuff. Bought flipside as a gift and am eyeing the flashlight for myself.
Brother, who buys a gift that costs 1100 dollars?! Like a gift for yourself i guess
TBH I've always thought this channel was a lmg channel because of how high quality it it
The Playdate is such a nice console. I'm glad to see the joy is being shared!

Thank you for hosting this amazing segment of As Seen On TV!
That Dyad wet/dry vacuum sounds absolutely amazing. I am truly an adult. I've never gotten so excited about a cleaning device. lol
Cleaning tech is so much fun lol
You just saved me so much time looking for X-Mas gifts.
Glad to help!! :)
I always love your tech roundups because you actually show me something I've never seen before AND isn't just china shovelware.
Even when i know almost all of these stuff i wouldn’t be able to buy in my country, i’m still love watching these videos to see neat tech that are underated
Dude...how do you find these..when all others keep on suggesting the same things over and over again...just amazing. Thank you!

@@snazzy GAME ON!
Would love to see your take on an EDC video or a “What’s in my travel bag” video.
You’ve always had some of the most unique recommendations.
Is it Christmas already? Oh boy. Better get going, Thank you for these wonderful tips
One of the best tech recommendation videos I´ve ever seen! Thank you, keep it up! ✌
Thanks, will do!
What I always like about your cool tech vids is that they are unique and not always tech.
"You cant tame a 9inch hog" is def the quote of the video
Wow, this is the first video I've ever watched that back-to-back recommends me products that Im interested in getting or at least think are cool. Great job dude!
Getting the Flashlight, the Ratchet Wrench, and the Pipe Wrench... I'm really good with small things.
TINY BOI GANG!
being new here, based on the recommendations I have a feeling that you either cook or do diy projects in your garage
Wera makes amazing tools, so much engineering in such small packages. Also getting the 711 Ratchet and the Knipex for sure
What, that screwdriver that spins 4 times for every rotation sounds friggen awesome. Neat tech all around; thanks for sharing!
the idea of putting a wireless charger on top of an already hot device just seems silly and a quicker way to ruin your battery
It doesn't get even warm, much less hot. Additionally, I've felt the active cooling covers the back of the wireless charger. Phone stays much cooler than on my official MagSafe puck.
Update your phone my phone is cool all day
It's just like those powerbanks that double up as hand warmers that are surprisingly popular nowadays. They literally kill their own battery lol
2 years with my S22 Ultra, charging every day with the Samsung Duo Wireless Charger, the battery it's in the same conditions without degradation.
The bigger issue here is companies being greedy and not deciding to improve the batteries. It's 2024 batteries shouldn't have to be a disgrace.
when a curated list is done well, you buy. great video!
please make this type of videos a weekly or a monthly thing. PLLLLLEEEAASSEEE
Happy thanksgiving my man... you always post great gadgets that i never even knew existed

I’ve had a whole WERA driver set for years, and I can’t speak highly enough on them. Best I’ve ever used!
I love this style of video from you! Do more like this! You’re like the more serious less annoying MrWhosTheBoss
Man this is such an awesome list of things I never knew existed in the niche ways that they do. I’ve ordered the Pinecil after procrastinating on fixing some stuff for a year or two, and I’m actually exited to work on those projects after it arrives. Thanks Quinn :)
I can vouch for the pinecil! It’s great! ❤
Love the idea of the keyboard being a dock. More mech keyboards should have that option.
The flashlight is something I didn't realize I needed. Thanks Quinn! Just purchased it and I hope it helps.
Thanks!! It’s awesome-you’ll love it.
That little golden giraffe keeps getting me. Every time the camera pans, I think the giraffe is the next item 😂
Hahaha
Glad to see you enjoyed my recommendation! Definitely is a super useful "chungus" of a charger, and I think you convinced me I need to pick up another!
It's so good!
My dad will get the flashlight for christmas :)
Thank you for this great recommendation
The studder at pinky was wild 😂 I’ll sub just for that 😂😂
Finally, A worthy gift guide without sponsored nonsense.
Quinn, Which Color 15 Pro you went for this year? Natural or White?
Natural!
What fantastic recommendations for Christmas! Thank you so much!
THOSE LITTLE PLIERS HAVE ME HOOKED, haha thanks for another awesome and engaging video. you definatly had some unique and fun gift ideas. LOVE IT
