Fall 2023 Tech Wish List
I am a gadget girl! I love buying new technology and learning all of the features. YouTubing, blogging, and every day life give me the opportunity to use my new toys in the real world. I always have my eye on the next new thing. These are some of the gadgets I have my eyes on currently.
Macbook Pro 14 inch M2 Pro Chip, $1,999.00
My last two laptops have both been Macbook Pros and I love them. Fun fact, a Macbook Pro is what sucked me into the Apple ecosystem. They are great computers that are perfect for people who live the 9 to 5 life and are also creators. The only thing I don’t like is the price. The new chips deliver a powerful performance and I am interested in experiencing that especially when it comes to video editing. My 2018 Macbook Pro is still going strong so I am going to hold off until the last possible moment.
In my opinion, music just sounds better on Beats headphones. I love my Airpod Pros for listing to podcasts and talking on the phone. However, the music does not sound the best on the Airpod Pros. I want to try these Beat Studio Buds because I feel like they will have the best of both worlds. I think the transparent color is cool so that would be the option I would get.
There are notebooks all over my apartment. I love to write things down. If I get a new idea I want to write it down and plan it out. A side effect of putting ideas in multiple notebooks is that they are all over the place. Each notebook has a different topic focus and I can’t easily switch between ideas. I want the reMarkable 2 that way I can have the feel of a notebook and the organization of a tablet/computer. I tried using a paperlike cover on my iPad but it doesn’t feel the same. I have been researching the other paper-finish tablets but the reMarkable 2 seems to be the crowd favorite.
ASUS ProArt Display 27 inch, $279.00
Lately, I have found myself doing a lot more design projects. The color on my monitor is okay but it isn’t as vibrant as I would like. Since I am looking at my monitor for over 10 hours a day, it would be great if the colors were more life-like and had high color fidelity. This particular monitor was named a top pick by multiple publications and has 4.3 out of 5 stars on Amazon.
Canon EOS Rebel T8i EF-S 18-55mm DSLR Camera, $899.99
My current camera is the Canon EOS Rebel T5i which is a couple of years old at this point. If I had to upgrade, I would want to get the newest version of this same camera. Canon cameras are my favorite and the EOS Rebel series is in my budget. With this camera, I would get all the new features and still be able to use all of my lenses.
