<\/p>\nIn the tech blogs I frequently visit one question keep resurfacing: what\u2019s in your bag? I believe this question is a derivative of \u201cwhat\u2019s in your iPod\u201d when the iPod was still at large (or the other way round). What\u2019s in one\u2019s iPod to a certain extent tells who one is, and what\u2019s in one\u2019s bag definitely tells more. So, what\u2019s in my bag?<\/p>\n

iPhone X<\/strong> Before I laid my hands on iPhone X I had so many doubts about it. But once I started using it those doubts faded away. The notch was OK as long as you don\u2019t use your phone in landscape mode; iPhone X\u2019s even thicker than iPhone 5 but that\u2019s ok. The OLED screen isn\u2019t like those oversaturated Android screens at all. Overall it\u2019s a really beautiful phone.<\/p>\n MacBook 12\u201d<\/strong> That doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m content with the performance of the MacBook, which runs on an Intel i5 (rebranded from m5 but still being a m5) processor. I still keep my retina MacBook Pro (late 2013) which still runs exceptionally ably.<\/p>\n Shure SE535<\/strong> Accessories contained in a pouch<\/strong> Stain remover pen<\/strong> Shoehorn<\/strong> PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)<\/strong> I also carry a flat plastic barrier in case I need to give emergency mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.<\/p>\n Olympus EM5 with 14\/17\/45mm lenses<\/strong> Billingham Hadley Pro<\/strong> In the tech blogs I frequently visit one question keep resurfacing: what\u2019s in your bag?

\nWell iPhone X isn\u2019t technically in my bag; it\u2019s in my pocket, for good reasons. A smartphone is the single most important device we carry with us. It holds the entire
\nInternet in our pockets. It\u2019s worthwhile to spend on the best phone money can buy. So even a $10000 phone is a worthy purchase.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m kinda done with the iPad. Yes, Steve Jobs used to say the post PC era has come. But with Steve no longer leading the revolution, the iPad still feels less capable than their PC counterparts. The latest iPad Pro may beat the MacBook in benchmark tests, but the Mac still excels in real world multitasking performance. And I can testify MacBook runs Lighrtoom just fine; it even edits 4K video in FCP with not-too-shabby performance. I\u2019m about to install Bootcamp and try running GTA V.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/PC040880.jpg\")

\nIt\u2019s simply a pair of earphones with great sound quality. Shure released a separate bluetooth cable to attach the earbugs on and it works. I didn\u2019t buy it because it doesn\u2019t sound as good as a plug-in cable. But I\u2019m definitely considering buying a lightning cable because it gives better sound than Apple\u2019s lightning-to-3.5mm connector.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/PC040883.jpg\")

\nCarrying devices with you means carrying loads of adapters and chargers too. Such accessories should be contained in a pouch to 1) keep things tidy, 2) make it easier to switch bags, 3) prevent metal objects from making scratches on other devices.<\/p>\n
\nThis pen magically removes (or at least fades) stains on shirts. Don\u2019t buy the Tide one though, it stinks.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/PC040885.jpg\")

\nThis adorable shoehorn from Muji is made of stainless steel. Really handy for those who hate to untie and tie shoelaces.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/PC040886.jpg\")

\nIf a car mechanic would carry a wrench with him<\/a>, a dentist would definitely bring PPE with him. The most basic PPE a dentist should have are latex gloves, masks and alcohol gel. Gloves are useful for instance when you try to remove bird poo on your car and when eating crabs. Masks are necessary when you see contagious people on those inevitable train rides. Alcohol gel is for cleaning hands after laying my hands on products in Apple Store.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/P1220502.jpg\")

\nWhen I have to bring a camera I bring my only camera, the Olympus EM5. If the event is single purpose I tend to bring only prime lenses for portability. The M43 system excels in having loads of good prime lenses of small sizes.<\/p>\n
\nFor the bag itself, I now usually carry a Billingham. It\u2019s a camera bag, meaning it\u2019s reasonably water-proof. The important point to note is that you should pick the FibreNyte material instead of canvas, so that the black colour stays black instead of fading into dark green like canvas does.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
