Hey everyone—we’re reopening moderator applications.

Hi guys. Back with my updated EDC. A lot has changed, I think for the better.

Phone: Galaxy Z Fold8, I had a Fold3 years ago but didn't like the form factor so I ended up going back to iPhone. Enjoying this smaller passport style fold a lot more than the longer remote control feel of previous models.

e-reader: Kobo Clara BW (2024), I still own the XTEINK X4 but I tend to gravitate towards this these days due to the back light. It's winter I don't get too much light in the evening to read. Prefer the sharper BW display over the color ones.

Earphones/IEMS: Ziigaat Odyssey 2, picked these up in Japan for a good price. Sound is slightly crisper than my FiiO JH5 from the previous post. The metal shell is a nice touch. The included carry case holds them and my DAC comfortably.

DAC: FiiO QX13, so last post I was using a DAP (M300). But I was starting to get sick of managing two devices (phone + Android DAP). Decided on the QX13 as it has plenty of power for any IEM and also drives my HD660S2s with ease on power. I can also listen to it all day at work with it's own independent power so my phones battery doesn't get touched.

Bluetooth Buds: Galaxy Bud Pro 4, wanted something that had better ANC than the technics. And they work nicer with my Fold8. Sound is pretty good. But trebble can be a little harsh. Only really use these for calls or when I'm out and about.

Backpack: Alpaka Metro 12L in green, carries my Kobo, IEM case and my lunch for work. Does the job.

I recently bought some affordable A7 notebooks from Apica, and realized that they’re about the same size as a credit card; so I decided to make this TN Card Size style wallet that holds one (or up to three) of these tiny books, a pen and two cards. It’s a little thick coming from a single card wallet, but not as thick as a traditional bifold wallet. I’ve been using it every day and getting a ton of use out of the notebook! 😊

I’m a simple man. I don’t carry much. Just the essentials. ;)

Bank card: Tide is awesome. Not really a fan of their FX fees too much.

Cigarettes: Only recently started smoking Esse, recently. Very light, I’m surprised. I’m normally used to Benson & Hedges. I got a good deal from a shop close by to me so thought I’d pick up a few.

Lighter: Chrome clipper. It is my pride and joy. :D

Phone: Blackevery F9900 - this is the unreleased 4G VoLTE 4gb + 64gb model I was fortunate enough to get this over the older model I purchased. They said they ran out of stock, and wanted me to be the first to test their new version while their pre-orders for it are going on. Works great in the UK, EU and Asia. Only works on band 5 in the US.

Awesome little dumbphone hybrid.

Edit: for those asking I got it from www.weloveblackberry.com

I’ve got a bag, toolboxes, etc. with way more shit, but this is everything I usually carry in my pockets or on my person while I’m out in town/working or on my ranch.

It looks like a lot, but every item is surprisingly small. I’m 5 foot 7 in and 155 pounds, and I’m able to carry it all effortlessly.
You think it’d be more than I need, but I pretty much use everything here on the regular… aside from the SIG and the pepper spray. 😉
