All the items here are things I use every day, they are all gaming must haves for me. I play games everyday and try to stream whenever I can so I will do my best to keep the list updated with anything I think can help a fellow gamer out.
Friends always ask me which iPhone they should buy. So I lined up every model worth your money, old to new. I dug through thousands of renewed reviews before picking each one. Older picks are renewed, which keeps the price much friendlier. Newer picks cost more but get years of updates. I sorted everything by era so it is easy to compare. Which iPhone was your very first one? Tell me in the comments!
Staring at a 13-inch laptop screen for eight hours while hunched over a café table was wrecking my neck and my productivity. If you're a remote worker, digital nomad, or freelancer who's tired of squinting at tiny text and juggling tabs on one cramped display — I spent six months testing portable monitors so you can skip the trial and error.
Someone bought a Samsung Odyssey monitor through my page, so I mapped out the gaming monitors I would actually recommend from a first 1440p screen up to 4K OLED and ultrawide. Every pick is a current model, sorted from budget friendly to dream setup. (Note: This list contains affiliate links, and I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.)

Lost a monitor, a PS5, and a router in one thunderstorm because I thought a cheap power strip was enough. Spent the next month researching what actually protects electronics versus what just looks like it does. If you've got expensive gear plugged into a $6 strip from 2017, maybe don't wait for the storm I got.
Shopping for someone who games is tricky: they probably already own the console and the games they want. These are the upgrades and accessories that tend to go over well because people rarely buy them for themselves. The list is split into desk and setup upgrades, PC gear and comfort for long sessions, and picks for console players (PlayStation, Xbox and Switch).

Spent a weekend sorting through apps, cables, drives, and cloud plans until my phone felt brand new again.
