this video sponsored by Intel what's going on guys Travers consumer and today we've got another backpack video this is one of the harder' backpack series that I do this is the minimalist setup you guys know I'd love to carry around some text so a minimalist setup is usually pretty hard but we got a really cool backpack and gear inside of here but first off just talking about the backpack itself this is the in case staple backpack this is a 15-inch laptop backpack you can hold a 15-inch laptop it's got a few compartments not a ton you guys know I like to have a ton of compartments for all the tech but this one is like super slim it's got a pretty low profile you guys can see how slim it is not too much gear inside of here and it's comfortable so I just throw it on like this you guys have it nice simple backpack but let's take a look at what's inside of it I like the two-tone look too I think it gives it a little edge in comparison to other plain black backpacks that I typically have but let's open this up actually we've got a compartment in the very front so inside of here I've got a Mophie case or a power case and this is for a pair of earbuds so inside of here I can just open this up and I've got a pair of Bluetooth earbuds these right here are a pair of Sony earbuds they've got a crazy model number what is it the WI 6p 600 N either way these are a pair of bluetooth earbuds that are actually great for working out because they're sweat proof their IP 4 resistant so sweat you don't have to worry about that but what's nice about these is that they've also got active noise-cancelling built right into it sound quality is actually pretty good on these these are from the extra bass line and you guys know me I love me some bass so be sound really nice but only thing I would have to say as a complaint of mine is the fact that it has this big remote on the side so when you're actually using it and you put it on you got this giant remote dangling right here now it does come with wing tips so that'll help with securing to fit in your ears but still I do wish it was a little bit smaller but it only cost about 80 bucks so that is a really good price for some pretty solid here but especially if you don't have to worry about sweat and for this backpack I like for my things to have multiple purposes so that I don't have to carry around too many things and this one having active noise-cancelling even if you don't want to listen to music you just want to block out your surroundings you can actually do that even without listening to music that way you just focus on whatever it is you're doing it also has an ambient noise feature so if you do want to hear things around you you can activate that and you can switch all of those up with the Sony companion app you get a lot of control there so these for me are a really nice buy now they were sitting inside of this multi power case and what's nice about this case is it will protect your ear buds of course but it also has a portable charger built right into it so that you can charge these up when you're not using them and that's what we've got in the first compartment nothing else over there and that's honestly like it's one of the only compartments in this backpack I think there's like a total of three but into the next big pouch I of course I got to have a notebook guys I'm pretty old-school guys if I want to take down some notes really quickly I can just pull this out and maybe jot down some ideas and I don't have to worry about draining my battery when I do it good old pen and paper I do have some pens and pencils in here to go along with it stuff that I typically carry around every backpack that I have so of course those are here as well now we're gonna do things a little bit differently this time guys usually I like to show the laptop last but a lot of these things that are inside of here worked really well with it and I want to be able to explain it with some contacts so right here we've got the laptop guys this is the world's thinnest laptop the Acer Swift 7 first of all just check this out this is absolutely insane this it's like holding a tablet guys it's nuts but this is a really awesome computer and what's nice is that even though this is a super thin portable laptop it's not like some tablet or anything it's full-blown Windows with everyday software powered by an Intel Core i7 processor to get just about anything done now not only is this the thinnest laptop out there but this also has some really cool features that make taking this on-the-go just amazing but let's talk about the i/o for a second so on the left side we have two USB sea ports as well as a headphone jack and on the right side you've got your power and a nano-sim car a lot not only is it super thin but what makes it extra portable is the fact that this thing can work with 4G LTE and we're able to get that LTE connection thanks to intel's built-in modem inside of this guy so you haven't always connected pc I think that is a game changer guys can you imagine a laptop that doesn't need Wi-Fi or need to get on public Wi-Fi or use a hotspot from your phone draining your battery you don't have to worry about any of that this thing has its own cellular connection which i think just it's amazing and the latest Intel modems are available with pcs that have Intel seventh generation or if generation processors in a minimalist backpack I feel like this laptop just works out perfectly super portable lightweight and I can just pretty much do whatever I need to in terms of getting work done and personally I think being able to access the internet wherever I am is a clutch feature so if I need to run and upload a video right after a keynote or something this thing is going to be able to help me do that without having to run to a hotel or some coffee shop or something and use really bad Wi-Fi real quick let's talk about the body of this laptop it's obviously super thin I have a 14 inch display with very very little bezels except for the bottom chin but what's also nice is that it has a 1080p touchscreen which is actually one of the best screens that I've seen in the while this is a really really good-looking screen not super high res but it definitely does the job and what's also nice is that it even has a built-in fingerprint scanner right here on the left side so with this guy you can login to Windows by just putting your finger on it you get right in so that right there is also a really nice bonus and if you guys want to get your hands on a laptop that's always connected like this one you can run into any tech store and just ask whoever's helping you for a PC with Intel's 4G LTE connection and they should be able to help you out now that you guys have seen this let's take a look at what else we've got inside of the backpack now the laptop has a 256 gig SSD inside of it but right here I've got an external SSD and this is the Samsung x5 now with the x5 you get insane insane read and write speeds and also uses Thunderbolt 3 so if you haven't done the ball through compatible device this thing is going to be the fastest SSD that you can get externally there's here is the two terabyte version so if I need to put any videos or any kind of work on here this thing is going to be able to hold on to it no problem and like I said it works perfectly with this since this has USB type-c I don't have to worry about any adapters or plugs just use the cable plug it right in I got access to 2 terabytes of storage and this nice compact body now listen we need to use something that isn't USB type-c I've got right here of course a dongle this one is by Satechi and this is probably my favorite USB type-c donghwa out there because this thing has a ton of functionality so we get access to an SD card slot a micro SD card slot another USB type-c port as well as two USB 3.0 ports on the other side a mini DisplayPort and an HDMI port and on this last panel you also get another USB 2.0 port as well as an Ethernet port definitely not something I need with this laptop over here since I'm always connected with the LTE connection but if you ever need that this is probably the best dongle that you can get out there for any PC that uses a USB type C or Thunderbolt ports now of course we've got a laptop over there so we also need a mouse and I feel like it's kind of a cop-out since this is like one of the most popular Mouse's out there but it just works so well this is the Logitech MX master 2 a great mouse super comfortable to use and if you were to carry multiple devices this thing can switch between them with the press of a button you can pair up to three devices with this so this is a really nice Mouse and it's a no-brainer why so many people use it now we've also got a couple of other things that are just essentials so right here we have a power brick for charging up my laptop and anything else that I may bring around with me this is anchors power port Plus this has five USB ports for normal USB type 8 ports and a USB C PD which is power delivery port which can provide a little bit more juice so I can use it to charge my laptop or maybe fast charge some devices with USB type-c and of course I got the power cable to go along with it but having something like this means you can charge up anything from the mouse laptop earbuds whatever it may be to charge it all up with this guy this is a clutch thing to have I've also got one of nomads rugged USB cables now the one I have here has USB type-c on both end but if I need to use a regular USB port I can actually throw this extension onto it so it works with USB type a and it also has a micro USB adapter as well since I'm only using USB type-c and micro USB is here this thing is perfect for this little backpack setup and Nomad makes some really awesome cables they're a bit pricey but the quality that you get out of them it's just a 1 and you thought I forgot but I did it got a microfiber cloth here it is an absolute must there's no way walk around without a microfiber cloth you got to keep your stuff clean keep your screen clean on your phone yeah nice touchscreen laptop you got to have it guys you know me and that's pretty much it for the backpack but there's just one more compartment which I'm very happy about give me 3 compartments and I think I can survive but this one back here this is like more of a security compartment so if you want to hide something important you can throw it back here but for me I just doing a portable charger this one is actually a pretty large one this is by nimble they make some really great portable chargers this one is actually 20 6800 milliamp hours I believe that's got that right but this one allows you to charge with USB type-c and three regular USB ports but this has USB type-c PD so power delivery means I'm going to be able to even charge my laptop with this guy but the laptop does have solid battery life so you probably won't need it but it's nice to have just in case this is a lot of juice to carry around with you and having the power to charge your laptop right from a portable charger that is super clutch and if 26,000 milliamp hours is too much for you they got the smaller ones as well these are just really really well-built solid portable chargers so I definitely like to carry this one around and that pretty much is it guys these are all of the things that I'm including in this minimalist backpack definitely very different from what I typically do a lot less things here just the essentials for getting work done listening to some music and being productive but that pretty much wraps up for this video guys hopefully you enjoyed it if you would do anything differently let me know if a comment down below if you liked it definitely hit that thumbs up button and I'll catch you guys in the next one till then is your average consumer
