Flash Talk ’16 – Some Favorite Accessories

Anker Bluetooth Speaker

Small, ultraportable, quite good music quality. $20 on Amazon

Chromecast

Good for streaming content from mobile to TV or any monitor with an HDMI port. Works with iOS and Android, but more integrated with Android apps. $35 directly from Google

Intel Compute Stick

A small, probably the smallest, computer running a licensed copy of Windows 10 Home. Best for in-home media streaming, game streaming via Steam, or to be used as an extra computer. Beware, it doesn’t ship with a mouse or keyboard. $129 on Amazon.

Anker Multiangle Stand

A small yet sturdy, metallic stand for large phones and tablets. Has various angles and works best when watching movies, writing, or browsing the web. $9.99 on Amazon.

Logitech Bluetooth Adapter

You can plug this into a power port and to a speaker via 3.5mm jack and connect to it from your iPhone, Android, tabs, or even MacBooks via Bluetooth. Works surprisingly well and can pair with multiple devices at the same time. $27.99 on Amazon.

Apple Watch Milanese Loop Magnetic Band

This one is pretty cool. What costs over $100 only costs $19 if purchased from Amazon. Sure, it’s not the same thing. But what you get is quite good for what it is. $19 on Amazon.

Logitech G602 Wireless Mouse

 

Although it’s advertised as a gaming mouse, which is what I primarily use this for, you can also use this super comfortable mouse for work, too. Its 11 programmable buttons can be configured with various Alfred or other shortcuts as you wish! ~$50-$70 (depending on discounts) on Amazon.

Gimbal for iPhone (Feiyu Tech G4 Pro)

Cool stabilizer for iPhone (works with other phones too) that you can use to stabilize your video footages. There are other options available on Amazon, but the one I got is available at any Apple store or on Apple online store. $300 on Apple online store.
