I always have one bag packed and ready to go with all my essentials because personally I really
enjoy working remotely from time to time whether that's from a local cafe or co-working spaces to
a plane or in different countries having that well curated list of quality Essentials ready
to go saves me time and from potential headaches so in this video I'll share with you what I pack
into this one bag right here from everyday items to work and Tech Essentials I hope you find these
items useful to you and let's start with the bag itself a segment of this video is kindly
sponsored by HP and Intel more on the new laptop later so this is Harbor London's City backpack
it's a lot larger than average so it comes with a lot of compartments I've been using
it quite a lot and from the outside I appreciate that it looks pretty simple discret and minimal
and it's a lot more functional than the other Harbor London bag that I have this one here is
made of full grain leather I think it's handmade in Spain and you can definitely feel the quality
but more importantly it's really functional just as much as it is stylish there's lots of stuff in
here and it's quite heavy actually but I'll show you what it looks like when it's completely empty
so at the back there's an easy access slot for things like the keys wallets and earbuds the main
compartment is freaking amazing there's dedicated slots to hold a laptop a tablet stationery books
and Bottles but just heads up that this bag is really quite expensive it's over $500 so it's
really hard to recommend it to everyone but there are plenty of great bags out there in
the $50 to $100 range from awesome Brands like Samsonite or belroy that are just as practical
my personal preference is to pay for Quality gear that will last a lifetime with some love and care
so this is one of those items I'll be using for a long time to come I hope okay so inside the
main compartment of the bag let's start with the most important carry and Main Workhorse the laptop
recently I've been rot testing this beautiful Elite book 1040 G10 it's the new business Flagship
laptop from HP powered by Intel and what I love about this laptop is it's optimized completely
for productivity and travel so I can make just about any environment as productive as my home
setup for example the 14in form factor here made from recycled magnesium makes it so light it
weighs under 2.6 lb so it makes it even lighter than my MacBook Air thankfully though it doesn't
sacrifice on processing power it's powered by the 13th generation Intel vpro p28 processor that
drives my creative workflows on apps like Adobe Creative Cloud and figma what's interesting is
the unique collaboration between HP and Intel to create HP Smart Sense it's a feature that helps
balance system resources automatically to things like regulating the fans optimizing battery life
scaling performance ments and dynamically reducing fan noise is all done automatically
and Smart Sense is one of the reasons HP and Intel have managed to cram significant processing power
in such a lightweight portable body so since this is my one bag carry having everything in
a single laptop is essential and the inbuilt camera with features like Auto camera select
HP Keystone correction and b o speakers as well help bring my best self to meetings when I'm not
at my desk plus the laptop just looks the part with silver magnesium case and glass trackpad
contrasted nicely with the black keyboard and display bezels I really like how it looks so
yeah Road testing the elite book 1040 remotely has been really enjoyable and you can find out
more about this new flagship Elite book in the description box below so moving on I'll often
pack my laptop stand into this bag as well and this thing is really brilliant uh when I need
to work productively for long stretches of time and let's say a cafe or or a hotel this comes in
so clutch it brings me eye level to the laptop and so I can better see the display and I can
proberly use an external keyboard and mouse for an ergonomic remote work setup it makes a
big difference on my neck and shoulders being able to work with a raised laptop so I don't
need to Crane my head down all day and this stand conveniently flat packs into an included neoprene
carry case so it's an easy pack into the bag without scratching everything in there and yeah
for 80 bucks it's an easy recommendation another must have in my daily carry is this Tech kit here
it's something I've mentioned so many times on this channel and I still use it to religiously
store cables and other Tech Essentials so in here I keep all my cables and charges otherwise they're
all over the place and I can't find them and I also keep a sturdy pen here uh and I actually use
this more often than I think I would especially when I'm traveling around and I just keep my
other peripherals in here anything that fits in here I'll basically Chuck in and oh also I have
this in this compartment here I have this apple microfiber cloth for 30 bucks it's overpriced but
actually money well spent because it's really one of the best if not the best microfiber cloths I've
used one wipe and most fingerprints and grime is gone with this thing and finally one of the most
important things actually I can't forget is the solid state drives can't work without these one
of them is from Team group and the other is from sandis both are about the same it's capable of
readwrite speeds of 2,000 megab per second with USB 3.2 gen 2x2 but realistically I see readwrite
speeds of 1,000 mbes per second which is plenty fast for just about everything that I do and here
is a very small portable speaker that fits really well into my backpack the Sonos Rome honestly I
don't use it all that much dayto day but it does come in clutch when I'm out with my friends at
a park or a hotel or something like that I just pull this one out and everyone loves just sharing
music on it it's infinitely better than playing music off a phone and it's G pretty big Sound
Stage for its portable size and it manages 10 hours of play time it just sucks that I can't
use it for phone calls and the base is lacking but it's a pretty good pack now next up in my bag is
this travel tumbler right here so this is a very sophisticated piece of tech that holds my water
and keeps me hydrated so I found this on Amazon actually and it's a premium Japanese made tumbler
that does a decent job keeping my drink either cold or hot in my bag aesthetically I think it
looks awesome and it suits the black bag which is always kind of nice as someone that likes
welld designed and nice looking things but yeah a travel bottle or a tumbler super essential to keep
hydrated every day now one of my favorite favorite things in the main compartment of this bag is this
camera here so I currently use the Leica Q3 and I really love taking pictures with this camera they
say that the best camera is the one that you have with you and I carry this around with me all the
time it's built like an absolute tank like it's probably one of the heaviest things in the bag but
the German sumu lens on this with the 16 megapix sensor snaps in incredible shots this thing is so
good it's often used by professional journalists and travel photographers it's crazy that several
months after the launch of this camera it still sold out on back order just about everywhere and
I think I got pretty lucky getting this on launch day and I've been using it every day since I'll
share my full review if you're interested in this camera somewhere in the description box okay going
into the front compartment now of the bag here I have a pen and paper just super simple but a
must have it's great for jutting down notes and Thoughts with that tactile feel but more
seriously it's great for times when I'm offline like in a plane and still need to brainstorm and
write things down so yeah pen and paper great thing to have in the bag and of course a power
bank here so if I forget to charge my device if I left my charges back at home or I just can't
find a power outlet anywhere this power bank here this is a complete Lifesaver when I'm continuing
to work and it doesn't make an appearance out of the front compartment of the bag that much but
when it does it's also so so handy all right moving on to the back of the bag in the easy
access compartment here this is actually where I open and close this compartment the most and
the first thing in here is my trusty airpods Pro 2 so before when I didn't have an organized bag
like this I'd often forget my airpods back at home and I'd be so disappointed because I wasn't able
to listen to music throughout the day which really helps me Focus but yeah for 250 bucks
these are amazing they're so Compact and sound incredible with its H2 chip and spatial audio
they're definitely one of the best earbuds on the market still but there's better options out there
if you're an Android User to be fair so that's that that's just my airpods and going back in I
actually have my Orbit key organizer so this is is essentially just a key organizer it's slim Compact
and it does a perfect job holding my keys in a neat way and it swivels out when I need to use
it plus I've got this great multi-purpose tool here it measures cuts and opens bottle caps too
super useful in just a small form factor here and goes right in to the back compartment and
then I think finally I've got the I've got hand sanitizer here OG uncentered of course not much
more to say about this you know you know the drill got to keep hygienic and this is a little bit of
luxury that I like to carry with me it's a goyard card holder expensive but handmade out of leather
and it ages really really well and at this rate I'll probably be using it for life I use it just
to hold my travel cards and credit cards and these are the only reason I'm able to afford
flying business or even first class sometimes thanks to Frequent Flyer points and a couple
more things I use every day is on my wrist actually and it is my Apple watch 7 when I'm
not wearing my mechanical watches I haven't found any need or want to upgrade to new Apple watches
yet they really haven't changed all that much in my opinion plus I like the small form factor of
the 41 mm Apple watch 7 um I actually don't use it for notifications I just have them turned off but
I use it to track my workouts runs and walks and then speaking of tracking I also have on my hand
here U my a ring so I use this every single day and every night almost so as you can see here it's
really scuffed up at this point after 2 years of use but it's still the best sleep tracker I have
used yet and it has helped me dull in and optimize my sleep massively it still sucks that we have to
pay a monthly fee to process our own Health Data but Aura has literally just released a new useful
feature an app to monitor stress throughout the day so I've been wearing it quite a lot and it's
definitely a daily wear for me if you made it to the end of this very long video comment the code
