The more I grow up, the more I lose interest in high-end tech.
BEFORE:
- Monitor: 4K OLED, HDR10, glossy...
- Phone: iPhone or top-tier Android phones
- GPU: RTX 4000+
- Keyboard: Only used mechanical keyboards
- Headphones: Premium Bluetooth earbuds with ANC
AFTER:
- Monitor: 1080p IPS is fine
- Phone: Any budget Chinese Android phone works
- GPU: iGPU are sufficient, no dGPU needed
- Keyboard: $10 no-brand keyboard
- Headphones: $5 Xiaomi wired earbuds with 3.5mm jack
The only high-end device I still own is a MacBook, solely because it runs macOS. I'll switch to a ThinkPad once Linux improves.
