Hey how's it going Dave TD here so this is a video on some tech accessories that I think are super useful for students and this is not going to be a video where you're going to see stuff like TVs and speakers because as fun as those are I seriously don't think that those are just really all that useful for students what you will see are things that I actually think are well I'm not a student anymore but I feel like if I had these when I was a student these would be awesome okay first up are some cables they're not just any cable these are every cable in one cable so these are made by a company called chiffon and it's essentially every single charging cable connected into one USB a cable so we have mini USB micro USB USB C and on the big one it actually comes with two lightning cables so with this device you can basically charge any phone as long as those made in the last like 10 or 15 years I think this is incredibly useful so the thing that makes this thing cool is how simple it is and you can keep it in your bag your car wherever you want they're very inexpensive I think they're like eight or nine dollars yeah great purchase very useful in my opinion second on the list are some battery packs so my go-to battery pack is anchor I feel like they make some of the best quality battery packs on the market they're inexpensive and they don't have like stupid features like lights and like flashlights and RGB stuff going on very simple but very reliable batteries that I've owned from even before I started doing YouTube stuff they come in various colors and various sizes and some of the bigger ones from anchor can recharge some laptops now if you're in the market for a battery pack and you want something that's a little bit more streamlined there are a couple devices out there that have like built-in prongs so you can just plug them right up into the wall to charge and they have built-in cable to make it that much easier now sadly I've never found one of these all-in-one battery packs for use PC but they do have them for micro USB and lightning a link book is on below alright the last thing I want to talk about is storage and I really think this device is something that every student in 2017 should have this is a device it's just a flash storage right very unassuming but it has both USB see and use PA on one device so you can just flip it around and plug it into whatever port you want if you format this thing with X you can connect it to any computer Mac OS Windows Linux whatever you want you're basically unstoppable but the thing that makes this thing's so useful is like if you ever want to transfer a file or if you need to transfer someone's file over to your computer whatever like this thing and it goes onto your keychain right it's so small it's so insignificant get this thing this will save your butt so many times in school like just do it okay if you want something a little more substantial we have Seagate and Western Digital drives these are obviously a lot bigger these are one terabyte at a minimum I think they started like 50 bucks are relatively inexpensive and you can use these things as backup to store your work your games your videos whatever you want now I've always used Seagate drives in the past but I've actually tried these recently and these Western digital ones and I find them actually slightly better they're equivalent in price but the thing that makes you kind of cool I mean they come in different colors so that's kind of a bonus but they have these rubber feet on the bottom the Seagate drives don't so when you place them down on a table the Western Digital ones just I don't know they stick around a little better and that alone makes me prefer them more but you can't go wrong with out of them okay that's basically it three pretty important pieces of technology I think every student should have
