Guys remember please that you dont need the latest and greatest tech to do well in school. When I started College and I was studying engineering, I had the most basic stuff. I did quite well in school! Pick and choose the tech you really think you'll need to help you save some time and maybe enjoy college a bit more!

While I really appreciate the quality of the Herschell products that you highlighted, I would hardly qualify those items as "budget". They are definitely more high end. I realize that they are quality and will last for years, so over the long haul they will hold up. But still not what I would consider "budget".

How refreshing, a tech video without all the same Apple products that we are constantly told to buy. There are so many other alternatives and this video showed those options

as someone who started college during the pandemic (and it quite literally started right before my first year in college commenced), I was actually pretty much broke without a proper laptop… I only had a Lenovo Ideapad MIIX 500 with a broken keyboard (I had to buy a keyboard, mouse and headset) and I only had the bare minimum and I did really, really well in my first year. I definitely second Andres’ point in not needing the best or even the latest tech to do well, or even yet just survive through college :) all the best to everyone starting this year!

As a student who also owns the Zenbook, I can absolutely vouch for how amazing it is

Love the budget tech vids- nice looking stuff at an acceptable price! Keep it coming, the production on all of these vids is amazing!

Really good video as always! Both the quality of the information and the quality of the video itself. I really like your videos and I'm sure you'll keep going with youtube, but I encourage you to keep doing it anyways, because I think your content is GOLD. Also, that transition between the trunk of the car closing and you grabbing the paper bags was REALLY good.

There is nothing I love more than budget friendly stuff! I use the Oclean Flow e-toothbrush and its really affordable and such a great product.

Andres has blessed us with another video. Also congrats on 200k im sure it's gonna be the first of many!!

The production quality is amazing here, I never hesitate to click a video of yours!

Thanks for the vid man! i was actually looking forward for this video!

I always think this guy must have a 10 person production team or something. Your videos are seriously awesome.

Please the budget videos are really grounded and would love to see more. Thanks for the effort 👌

Bro! I love how you did a EDC different! The editing style was great! Love your video

I love Best Buy! I feel like they’re always helpful and their geek squad policy puts me at ease

I wish we had a best buy in South 🇿🇦. Products look great and love the variety of the different products you can get there.

just in time !! colleges here in the PH are going back to face to face setup !

Thanking you for making such videos, it was very informative 👍🏻😀

Thank you Mr Vidoza another great video appreciate your work man

So unique and COOL. tired of seeing apple products… while i use all of them, I find it refreshing and different to see a gorgeous setup like yours. We know you’re into the real heavy duty tech stuff.

seeing this, i remembered when I was an IR student back in 2018 - 2022. My EDC back then was an Acer Swift X, a Logitech M331 wireless mouse, a Mi Basic In Ear earbuds and a Poco M3 (now switched to Samsung A33 5g). these things work flawlessly until my graduation, and the laptop now sits in my desk collecting dust since I often work outside :))

Thank you for actually making a budget video for students, sometimes I can't help but to feel like most, if not all tech youtubers are so disconnected with reality when recommending products in the budget category, specially for students, which are all broke for the most part. Like they will recommend either stuff that is way out of a reasonable budget and that are not necessities, like the latest macbooks, new tv's, top of the line headphones, etc. Or they go to the other extreme and recommend very bad quality stuff that they don't even take the time to review themselves. Their "budget video" ends up with a total reaching the thousands, when a real budget video could have bought something better suited for just the price of one item, and they will just say "this is the best choice for students that are looking for x, specially for this price" with a straight face. I sometimes think that they just don't understand the priorities of someone in a budget, like sure, having quality products is nice, but what we need is just something that works, not making a massive investment with money we do not have.

Alright this isn't fair, I'm just looking for budget backpacks and your editing has me so hooked on your channel

Hi, I'm from India, I saw you here for the first time and I loved your content the way of explanation to the quality of the audio and video. Keep growing good luck ☺☺☺☺

Awesome video and love the cinematics, as always (the shoes part killed me). Just one thing for people: don’t get the Sony earbuds (they are great tho) if you can get the Huawei Freebuds 4i for 10-15 bucks more! I had them both in a week and the Huawei ones are amazing Ps. I’m from Italy and Sony ones costs 50€ and Huawei ones 55€

Always does the best intros love your work always , Im about enter university for my cs degree .. feels a bit serious watching it lol.

I love ur vids so much theyre perfect! keep it up

Usually I would prefer a MacBook Pro but for that price and being upgradable? totally worth it. I work in IT and sometimes a windows pc is needed! Now I know what to get! that ASUS laptop is gorgeous!

These and Setup Makover videos are the best

Awesome video as always I literally just began college 3 weeks ago and its been a hassle getting good quality tech

I'm not a student any longer (already went through that fun stuff). Still appreciate the video reviewing the latest and greatest with tech. Thanks for the video!

You are simply the best !!!!

For a great portable keyboard I suggest the Microsoft Designer Compact keyboard, it's around 55 dollars with a great battery life ( 3 years) and the ability to connect to 3 devices and switch between them, and it's really slim.

Quality content. Great video!

starting pre-med in February, getting an iPad air and first new phone since 2017, hyped😎

Love the skits with jan 😂

Very good video! Nice work! I am curious about a 'premium tech backpack'. Make a video about it! I think it will be insane!

Man, your videos are amazing, where did you buy the tyson poster, it looks awesome

loves these videos man

Do you think it would be okay to put your laptop in the bag without a sleeve? Great video btw it was really helpful

Hi Andres! New subscriber here! I saw your video and I'm amazed at your storytelling style!

Great video, I just saw today for those who want to get a G305 that there's currently a headphone & mouse bundle at Costco for the white one for 100$

yes I wish i had that also great job

Hey guys remember if your course is not very demanding and your computing needs are basic, you just upgrade your old laptop with more ram and SSD and use for a year or two more

The Razer Orochi V2 is a great alternative to the G305 too

The Herschel sleeve looks so good and comfy. Wish I could get it but delivery rates to where I live are so High!😭 Love the video though!

That Outro Thumbnail Was Freaking Good 🤍

What back packs do you guys use ? I was thinking of using my old jans sport from high school but I used it to go fishing and let a bag of chicken liver go bad in it so the smell is not great I need a back pack lol

Best cheap laptop is the ideapad gaming series, absolute awesome value when on sale. It's also easily upgradable.

Asus has always been My only choice when comes to having a laptop. They definitely have some great quality and durability devices👍mine one 7 y/o still going strong

Omg, it's so cool when you break the character, like when you screamed budget, haha. Kinda creates a little bit of contrast to you character or more precisly speaking the narrative talk when describing a tech (I guess, you may call it)

All of my life I was well organized mentally and not physically. I was a doctor, Linux Tech guy but never allowed gadget to dominate me. I am a multi task man who never missed an appointment for 40 years of day to day life. This changes to paranoia when I am on holiday mood and when I travel abroad. Moment I board the plane I lose my identity and self authority and in this scenario a water bottle piece of cheese and some biscuits, go very handy. For solid 3 hours in Singapore Airlines, I could not get a glass of water and a vegetarian meal (I was not a vegetarian to begin with but now I am). Like the author of this piece I go into minute detail and chose the best travel bag. I do not carry a laptop due to weight but have several cellphones to organize myself. I have dropped the tablet to and moved WiFi NUC and wireless Mouse and Keyboard. Virtual keyboard of the cellphone including French Language capability for translation (still learning). By the way I have over 200 applications and games in my Android 11. I do not think I will go for Android 11. Thanks for your efforts. Closer at home do not become a virtual AI. Moment you lose one item you may go into panic mode. Be normal and take one task and one day at a time . I was a University teacher for 15 years and I hated it since I could not get more than 3% to be logical and rational and above all be a simple guy with happy mind. By the way, I am happy guy in retirement and just finished organizing over 200 Linux distributions in which over 80 were Puppy Linux. I carry Puppy Linux on travel abroad and it has all my utilities in one 64GB stick.

This was amazing. Sadly my country doesn't have a best buy.

Hey mate I see you have that husky bench. Is that a full setup or did you add the top shelf and peg board? Loved the video great job keep it up🤙🏽

I love that rusty look of your setup!!!!!!!!!

🙌🔥😎 el tío Andres con las mejores recomendaciones

if you want a real budget keyboard get the rk84 and buy a 2 pack of akko cs switches, my suggestions: the lavender purples or the jelly blacks Id get the lubed versions and at normal price, it'll be around 120, but given popularity, the keyboard (80$ roughly) will likely go on sale. still much cheaper than the mini in this video

What a amazing video man congrats! Kind regards from brazil

Man, this video is super cool

Unexpected wait 😁 for this Video

"the keycaps are hotswappable" lmfaoo

that calculus book is triggering 🤣

This is the first video I ever watched in this channel

Hey Andres, Amazing video!!! What kinda storage cabinet you use of Husky, Can you please share info about that as well?

i really love your tech video hehehe

Huo ji keyboard is also a budget friendly... I use it and its so good... it cost around 3000-4000 INR

your videos have a more cinematic feel than most movies which have come out today

Oh okay this is called budget !!

Bought my wife an 14" Asus laptop. She loves it and it works well. I wrecked my HP and went to buy one and they were sold out. I read some good things about the Vastking King book. It has the key pad in the track pad as well. it is horrible. I have had an issue with it from the jump. It does not allow you to jump back to the mouse without hitting the power button and powering it back up. In the future will just use a bluetooth key pad or re-learn to use the keypad key strokes for the numbers. Good vid.

Honest Budget video....great production quality Are they up for student giveaway? and I made it in your video in the insta 😂

I love my G305 Lightspeed, I feel like Logitech overdelivers on the battery life especially if you use something like Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries which also help cut down on the weight.

Man my "student backpack" a couple years ago was a backpack with my laptop and a textbook or two and a folder or two. Maybe a phone charger.

yeeeeeh, da stewart calculus, is good and easier for understand da concepts but if u want to get hard and practice ur logic Leithold EC7 is for u 😊

Oh man. When I was in summer break I would wake up trying to remember what was due soon, only to realize that I was still on break.

Although I currently live on the other side of the planet, but that parking lot at the beginning looks like Laval.

Where did you get the pens at the beginning of the video? They look slick.

yesssss the s22 ultra is included in video

My EDC back to college was the laptop, phone, a bottle of water and two bananas

for the people that want to buy the wfc500, I've had them for a year now and i've had some problems and i needed to return them and get a new one the first problem is that one of the earbud stopped working and it didn't charge, I returned them and they gave me a new one and the second one was recently it's that whenever i connect it to the laptop it connects but the sound keeps going away and comming back rappitly like the whole time but when your using the phone yeah it does happen time to time but it's rarely.

I love ur vids soooo much

11/10 thumbnail

As an ex student I will always say if you want to step down specs to have a nicer laptop chassis then damn well do it

Your budget is higher then our monthly encome😅

First and foremost, loved the cinematography! But I wouldn't call this "budget". This is budget: - Backpack (Personal preference. Mine was 70€ from a local portuguese brand, it's been to 4 countries, multiple road trips and metal concerts) - Used Thinkpad (Cheap to buy, upgrade and repair. Amazing keyboard, hotswap batteries and ports galore. You can get a quad-core T480 with 16GB RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD and a massive battery for half the price of the Zenbook) - Stationary (One notebook and a pen will do. Test papers if your school requires those) - Powerbank and Bluetooth speaker (Optional nice to have for after class with your friends. Don't wanna run out of battery or vibes. Great for emergencies, too) Use the rest of the money to save up for a rainy day, pay bills and tuition. If only Best Buy had sponsored my degree while I was doing it...

keyboard enthusiasts hearing the keyboard that "sounds nice" are in pain rn

bro really said the RK65 sounds "sooo nice" lmao

What keyboard was in the video that said "This is Plastic" on the spacebar? looks sick

As an SOC Analyst student this is exactly how my setup looks

Why aren't the prices of the products mentioned anywhere?

The c270 doesn't have drivers for Windows 11 as of this moment, so if you plan to use it, just know it's very hit or miss. For me, you might end up in the same boat as me with it not working and It crashing windows, or you might be lucky and it being able to work.

I liked early just because of the RS3 😂

Did you actually fire Jan?

For mouse u can look at razer deathadder v2 hyperspeed

Bro is the macbook air m2 considered as a great option for medical students

The Stewart on the background gave me some flashbacks tho

Hello bro ! Really love watching your video recently i came across a bag in jr video i think it is a messenger bag jusy curious to know which one is that

nice set up

13:22 ''Half of the audience is Canadian, or from the States''. *Laughs in Venezuelan* Jokes aside, incredible work as always, Andres.

Hi Andres really appreciate your increase in quality of video , I am from India can you suggest some nice work efficiency tools that I can use to increase my productivity in budget and also are available for india🙂🙂

How to make a bedroom like yours? It's so clean, beautiful, funcional...🤩Please make tutorial or something like that.🙏
