Uses

tech that i use. (inspired by various /uses pages)

Gear

  • Laptop: HP 15s-eq2182AU (16GB RAM + 512GB SSD).
    It's got Ryzen 5 5500U which coupled along with the 16 gigs of RAM is enough for running most pre-2019 era video games which I enjoy. Although, recently it's started to heat up pretty quickly which is a big bummer.
  • Smartphone: Realme P3 5G (8GB+128GB)
    I finally got a 5G supported smartphone. Just like my older Redmi 7, I use it for phone calls, UPI payments & college stuff, along with playing any multiplayer game my friends are into.
  • IEMs: KZ Castor (Gray Improved Bass variant)
    I got this from a giveaway by YouTuber TheHopelessGeek. They sound great, Castor has a more bass-y feel to it and the EDX Pro (my previous ones which I gave to my brother) feels much more balanced to me.
  • Keyboard: Aula F75 (Ice Blue variant with Leobog Reaper switches)
    My first ever mechanical keyboard and I just love typing on it. Its customization software is straight up not good to use, luckily I use my keyboard at its default. Also some keycaps have different typeface which to say the least is very odd. It has got South-facing RGB lighting which can be too bright if set so but again, I don't keep the RGB on.
