First of all, we have my MacBook Pro with the M2 Pro Chip. It's a total beast.
Then as a Monitor I have a Dell P2723DE (something like that) It's a 27" monitor with QHD (1440p). It's not as excited as the Studio Display, but it gets the job done.
Then we have the Logitech MX Combo with the MX Master 3 (MX Master 3S) and the MX Keys. Very great keyboard/mouse combo.
Following that I talk about the AirPods Pro II. I used to use Sony XM4 as my headphones but now AirPods have replace it.
I mostly use Visual Studio Code as an IDE.
Notion is also a beast of note taking app. It has so much features and templates.
