Can you add an affiliate link for the backpack?
Very excited to watch this one
Sometimes the problem for bluetooth transmitter device is the delay. Its annoying for watching movies
My travel audio solution would be Sony WI 1000X(M2) ANC Dual driver Bluetooth or wired and Airline compantible.
Hi Mike, enjoyed your video and have saved for reference. What is the model of your PacSafe backpack?
Yep, that definitely looks like a bomb ππ
Hi I am an experienced IT expert, would you like to get some of my ideas that how IT can help you be more comfortable and easy to travel around, I have some way to make it come ture.
I love that tripod!!!
Great commercial π
Whats the white clip thing?
1:32 π
being white doesnt make it premium
App in the Air shutdown in September π’
Thanks for your content!!!! β€
Such a rarity to see a non-Applefag tech vlogger! ππ
Amazing video mike! Man that bluetooth airplane adapter might be a gamechanger for me. Didnt even know about something like that. Ive been using those aweful free ones that they give you for as long as i could remember, but after I get myself a new pair of bluetooth headphones soon, that gadget is gonna make flights a breeze.
the air fly thing is cool but i have LG Headphones that has that function inside its charging case which is great
Backpack link please thanks a lot
I’m also a travel enthusiast. Your recommendations are all spot on. Those are the things I’d use for myself. You’re one of my favorite gear reviewing channels. Thank you for doing the heavy lifting for the rest of us!
What is your top travel tech?

As a frequent traveler myself I think you should carry over the ear headphones , I’ve left the country 8 times this year already and there’s no way earbuds are comfortable for long periods of time , maybe on a 2 hour flight is fine but 8-13 hour flights you need comfort
6:47 peak design case works well with peak design accessories, but it wonβt necessarily protect your phone well and is weaker with regular MagSafe devices. My peak design case didnβt protect my phone in a pretty catastrophic way where my phone was no longer fixable, and I also stopped using my MagSafe pop socket because it came off too easily. Canβt recommend that case to anyone in good conscience
Nice choices on travel tech. A further upgrade to the already excellent lineup would be replacing the USB charger with a travel adapter with USB PD charging function, powerful enough to charge your notebook.
Were those Samsung 18650 and 21700 batteries I saw in that second powerbank? lol
Ethan hawke wish version
Great info tho lol
I don’t travel
A good travel selection, the one essential I see you did not mention is a travel adapter. For someone flying often I find it is as important as the travel charger brick to be able to have a one stop solution for every country’s plug type needs. And yes, I get your frustration with Apple still holding onto that ancient lightning cable head type. I can’t wait for them to make the full switch to USB-C on their whole product line! It will slim down the cables I need to bring even more!
Backpack link?
What’s the name of the panda dial app for your GW4? It looks awesome π
Beats. Bears. Battlestar Galactica.
As ever, an interesting and engaging post. I regularly travel relatively short distances, up to 3 hours each way. Long haul flights are rarer.
As commented already, a travel adapter is essential. I have one that is compact and adaptable, sliders fold out the required region’s adapter. I carry some standard adapters for the region in my hold luggage too. With a charger connected to a travel adapter it’s quite a bulk to hang off a socket. Some sort of support would be ideal if someone has come across one.
I now have a couple of Anker chargers and tend to use their braided USB cables too. I’ve found them reliable over the years and the 65W charger I have will power my HP EliteBook and Microsoft Surface (not at the same time) as well as having a spare socket to charge the phone/Buds/etc. I have some small USB-C to USB-A adapters to minimise the number of cables I carry.
The Bluetooth Air adapter is not something I’ve see, I’ll definitely be investing in one of them.
As for bags, I like the security features on the bag you featured. I tend to switch depending on my needs. I have an old Pakuma backpack which has a padded compartment for my laptop. It doesn’t have a lot of capacity but ideal for planes and where I have additional luggage. It’s barely aged in 10 years so great quality.
I have had budget backpacks which have fallen apart very quickly. Now I have 25l and 30l Berghaus backpacks which have survived many trips without an issue. Neither are designed for laptops but sort of work in that the smaller is ideal for when we’re away and out and about without the laptop. The larger I use for shorter trips and can squeeze 1 to 2 nights worth of gear in as well as my laptop and accessories.
How does the Samsung watches work with the pixel 7 pros? I am curious about the galaxy 6 classic, but unsure about the features.
Number 7??

Ugreen has a charging block 67w with changeable heads for those that travel international often
Is the personal finance guy your brother?
Why would an American think of going to one of the Canary Island’s???? I’ve seen it all now!
actually, Samsung has this feature where two people with wireless earbuds or headphones can both listen on same device
Tech reviewer using Amazon tsb for daily use? ππππ thats a huge cap lol
Can you please review Oppo Enco X2.
And one missing thing: world mains adapter plugs for 220V etc.
what i really need to know is where to get that corduroy bidness
ill never understand how you don’t have 2 mil+ subscribers! your a top 3 tech channel for sure
This is so well shot
Mike like always you bring us top notch videos. Also nice to see your wife for the first time in the pictures you shared. You make a good couple π
I travel with my phone and charger
Timestamp without description ? π§
No waist strap on the backpack; that’s gonna be a no from me.
How annoying that you labeled them 1,2,3 instead of the actual product.
Itβs a pitty: I liked the beats fit pro a lot, but I couldnβt make the left one stay in my difficult ear, wingtips didnβt help. Strangely the Beats Studio buds plus se editing a way better job staying in my ears, love them so far.
