**A Comprehensive Review of My Mason EDC Pouch**
I recently purchased the Mason EDC pouch and I'm excited to share my experience with it. As someone who's always on the go, I needed a reliable and versatile bag that could keep up with me. The Mason EDC pouch exceeded my expectations in every way.
**The Purse Organizer**
One of the first things I noticed about the pouch was its purse organizer design. It has multiple compartments and pockets that allow you to store all sorts of essentials, from cables and chargers to batteries and adapters. This feature is particularly useful for someone like me who's always carrying around a lot of gear. The pouch comes with two extra cable organizers that can be attached to the sides, making it easy to keep your cables tidy and organized.
**The Paper Like Cleaning Kit**
Another item I found in the pouch was the paper-like cleaning kit by Patanka. This small device is designed specifically for cleaning screens, but it's also great for wiping down surfaces and removing dust and dirt from other areas. The microfiber cloth inside the spray bottle is incredibly effective at picking up dirt and grime, leaving surfaces streak-free and clean.
**The Keychain Multi-Tool**
As I dug deeper into the pouch, I discovered a keychain multi-tool that's perfect for emergencies or everyday use. The tool has four different functions: a flathead screwdriver, a regular screwdriver, a hexagonal screwdriver, and a small prying tool. This is incredibly versatile and will come in handy in a variety of situations.
**The Stand**
One of the most innovative features of the pouch is its built-in stand. This allows you to prop up your phone or iPad Mini at an angle, making it perfect for watching videos or browsing the web on the go. The stand is sturdy and adjustable, so you can get it just right to suit your needs.
**My Favorite Products**
Overall, I'm absolutely loving my Mason EDC pouch. It's been a game-changer in terms of staying organized and efficient on-the-go. My favorite product from this set has got to be the paper-like cleaning kit by Patanka. It's small but mighty, and I find myself using it all the time.
**Conclusion**
I highly recommend the Mason EDC pouch to anyone looking for a reliable and versatile bag that can keep up with their active lifestyle. With its multiple compartments, innovative stand, and quality products like the paper-like cleaning kit, this pouch has everything you need to stay organized and efficient on-the-go. Whether you're an iOS or iPad user, or just someone who's always on the move, this pouch is a must-have.
**Final Thoughts**
I've been using my Mason EDC pouch for a while now, and I can honestly say it's been a life-changer. From carrying all my cables and chargers to having a multi-tool that can track my devices, every feature in this bag has been put to good use. If you're looking for a new bag or just want to upgrade your existing one, I highly recommend checking out the Mason EDC pouch.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthank you so recently I've tried to be a little bit more intentional about the types of products that I bring with me on a daily basis especially on the weekends maybe I'm going on a day trip maybe I'm going on a short overnight trip but I don't need to bring my 12.9 inch iPad Pro with the magic keyboard and the apple pencil or I don't need to bring my MacBook Air because I'm in a situation where maybe something like an iPhone 13 mini or an iPad Mini will get the job done because now on the weekends I try to be a little bit more present but every now and then there are some things where I need a little bit of power to get a little bit of work done and these devices in this everyday carry which I'm about to show you has helped me accomplish those goals so in this video I want to walk you through my mini EDC because what I've realized is that when you're working with smaller devices especially with smaller displays you're less likely to go to them as often as let's say a 13 or 14 pro Max or a 12.9 inch iPad Pro without further Ado let me show you this mini EDC because a lot of these actual products are very multi-purpose and multifunctional which is the name of the game but let's get into it so let's start off with the actual bag itself now this is the Mason EDC bag and it was purpose built by a company called Waterfield and they're made in San Francisco now this thing is Ultra Premium it's made with real full grain leather and you know I've started to miss the smell of full grain leather because now we're dealing with a lot of vegan leather products and those are a lot more environmentally friendly and things like that and they're much more versatile and they're also cheaper but there's nothing like some real full grain leather like when I open this up out of the plastic bag you could just smell it right away it smelled like a brand new car at the end of the day but it's made out of that full grain leather on the front and also with a strong nylon fabric where the zippers are to make sure everything is waterproof and protected and this Mason EDC is exactly what it sounds like it is a sling bag that goes over the shoulder you can kind of go behind you in front of you you can take the actual sling off of it and actually put it in a bigger bag if you see fit but it's actually made with the iPad Mini in mind and that is why the iPad Mini is kind of going to be the center of this entire EDC because it does come with a cushion on the rear that perfectly fits an iPad Mini no bigger no smaller so if you guys want an EDC bag that is made to hold the iPad Mini you can fit any other similar size device in there but the iPad Mini fits in here perfectly and it's well protected and then the rest of the bag itself you open it up you have two pockets on the inside of it to hold some other products which I'm going to show you in a little bit then you also have the main pocket itself which goes between the iPad mini and those two pockets and then lastly you have a front access zipper pocket for the smaller things like maybe the 13 mini which I'm about to show you but this is again the called the Mason EDC it's very well built it comes with a couple of different colors I went with the black on black colorway but overall I'm extremely happy with the build quality the zippers are extremely premium I haven't had any issues with it I've had this for about two weeks and been I've been using it almost on a daily basis I've been very happy with this Mason EDC pouch and like I said for this mini Tech EDC which I'm about to show you the products at a house in here it's actually perfect for again a quick weekend getaway or even to bring it with you on a daily basis if you're commuting and you just need quick access to some smaller items like chapstick or your phone or maybe your headphones so now now let's talk about the actual iPad Mini so like I said there is a sleeve inside the Mason pouch for the iPad Mini it is cushion it's protective so that is why I actually keep the iPad Mini completely naked and I have the lavender colorway in a 64 gig variant without actual data so this is the cheapest one you could get I believe it's 499 or 449 dollars for the actual base model and I do want to shout out Patrick Rambles and Steven Robles for consistently kind of showing some iPad Mini content and really kind of pushing me towards it because when the iPad Mini originally released I'm gonna have a full video on the iPad Mini kind of a year and a half two years later but when it first released I did pick one up and since I was coming from the iPad Pro that was kind of my mentality of the iPad Mini I thought it was going to be a shrunken-down iPad Pro from a hardware standpoint because it looked the same it had the same form factor it was just a little bit smaller and easier to wield in the hand and the one thing that kind of turned me off from it was the actual display being only 60 hertz and not having promotion so being used to the promotion and coming down to the iPad mini and having that type of expectation of the iPad Mini is kind of What drew me away from it and I ended up returning it but then I picked this one up again and had a different mindset right this iPad mini is for leisure activities it's to watch content on is to quickly maybe look something up when you're at a restaurant or it's also there to read a book but it's mostly for Content consumption you can do a little bit of work on there you can edit some photos maybe edit some video it is rocking that a15 chip so it is plenty powerful to run iPad applications and I've had zero issues with any iPad OS applications so overall it's meant to be a tablet first it's meant to be a Content consumption machine but it can also do some of those more kind of intensive and productivity tasks I just wouldn't use it solely for that reason and that's when you change that perspective on the iPad Mini it becomes a whole new device and now I absolutely love it and the apple pencil 2 support and USBC is also a great added bonus for this iPad Mini at the price point I just wish it started 128 gigs and not 64. now the next product that I have in here which I usually keep on the front actual zipper for easy access is my weekend phone which is actually the iPhone 13 mini and it is the last of a pretty much dead breed now at this point I think Apple made the change with the iPhone 14 lineup to get rid of the 14 supposed mini and they went with the 14 plus even though people seem to love it on paper and they used to love it on headlines but for the 13 mini it seems like apple didn't sell enough to want to bring it back for the 14 Series so the iPhone 13 mini you can still buy it retail from Apple it's still available and I would probably recommend picking one up if you do want a smaller iPhone because from a power and performance standpoint it's just as good as any of the iPhone 13 lineups because it is rocking that a15 bionic chip which is still in iPhone 14 lineup to this day so it's plenty powerful the only concern that I have with the iPhone 13 mini is the overall battery life it is a small phone it is a small device so it's going to have a small battery in the battery life if you use it intensely it's not going to last you the whole day maybe a brand new one will but over time that battery is going to deteriorate and that's not going to last you all day long and I have some products to kind of help supplement that battery life which I'm going to show you in a bit but that is literally the only downfall of this iPhone so if you use it kind of sparingly or use it for medium use which is the point of the 13 million my eyes that's why I use it on the weekends because smaller screen means I'm going to use it way less frequently and I also did something where literally the only app on my home screen is the camera app and the photos application and you'll see it is because I just want to capture moments on the weekends I'm not there to kind of scroll through Twitter even though I do have the Twitter app on here but I'm out here to kind of post on social or anything and I'm not trying to work off of this I don't even have Gmail or any of my email clients on here this is purely for me to take photos take video view those photos and videos share it with my family maybe have an iMessage maybe do a quick scroll through Twitter but that's really it and the 13 mini is perfect for this mini EDC if you guys want a full video of the 13 mini almost two years later let me know in a comment down below because this phone to me is actually amazing I love the form factor and for the purpose that I use it for it's absolutely amazing and again I know we live in a world where I can have the 13 Pro Max the user in the week and then a 13 minute to use on the weekends but it's served its purpose which is to reduce screen time on the weekends and I do rock the iPhone 13 mini without a case for the most part but I do have a little holster which kind of looks like a pop socket or an old one but it is by patana and it attaches magnetically on the rear with magsafe and it's just a cool little accessory that acts as a stand as well as an actual little hole or Loop to actually hold the phone itself pretty securely even though it is small enough to hold securely already I like to have that little extra confidence and the magnets are extremely strong sounds very self-explanatory and I absolutely love it and it can be used with any magsafe compatible iPhone so now the rest of the products that I'm going to name and I'm going to show off you're going to see that they are very multifunctional multi-purpose like there isn't a single product on here besides the airpods pro that only serves one purpose so the first one I'm going to show you is it actually carry a USBC Hub with me just in case for the iPad Mini because there are some rare occasions where sometimes we do bring a real camera out and then you want an SD card to kind of show off and an SD card reader to be able to plug into the iPad mini and the fact that the iPad Mini now supports USBC is absolutely amazing so now it opens up the door to a lot of peripherals so the one I have here is by a company called hyper and it's their hyperdrive and what I like about this is that it serves a couple of purposes so obviously it's a USBC hub first and foremost so you have a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack a three point 0.1 Gen 2 USB 8 Port an SD card slot a mini SD card reader a USBC for power pass-through and then also an HDMI port but then on the top of it you can see that it actually has some playback buttons so you're able to use this for Spotify for Apple music for Apple TV for anything that involves content so any streaming services it automatically will know what to do so if you press pause it's going to pause the video If you press forward it's going to skip to the next track on Apple music and like I said it works with Spotify YouTube music you name it this thing is really really cool to have and it's just one single USBC plug right in there and it fits perfectly in the EDC bag and I will link all these products down in the description below if you do want to check them out so if you see a product that you'd like click on one of them and you'll be able to get whatever the best deal is at that point so as I mentioned the iPhone 13 Mini battery life isn't amazing to begin with so I do have two kind of charging portable Solutions and kind of depending on what my day looks like or if I'm spending an overnight trip is depending on which one I bring so the first one is for that overnight maybe hotel stay or maybe you need a little bit more oomph for both the iPad any and the iPhone 13 mini so for that I bring the duo wireless charger by satechi and this is a 10 000 milliamp hour battery when you first look at it and like I mentioned most of these things are going to be dual purpose so the Dual Purpose for this one is that first off it charges two devices at once so it's perfect to charge your airpods wirelessly as well as your iPhone 13 mini wirelessly but then you also have the usb-c port on the back which outputs up to 15 or 18 watts of power I believe so it'll work to actually charge your iPad Mini as well if you have a USBC to usb-c cable but what I like about this is that you can actually prop this up and there's a stand aspect so you can actually stand up your iPhone to charge overnight on a nightstand and then on the rear charger airpods Pro but now this next charging solution is mostly for the day-to-day so if I'm just going on a long maybe New York City trip that goes from beginning to end in one single day I like to bring with me this new charger Bike company called rolling Square now this company I'm actually working on another video to kind of show you this modular kind of mobile setup which I leverage their products to actually get done so definitely stay tuned for a review on all their products but I wanted to show off one of them and this is called their Tau charger so this is a tiny 14 milliamp hour external battery it's exactly what it sounds like and what I like about this is that it can be kind of put on your keychain with this little Loop right here but the actual cores are built right in so it's got one usb-c port on one side and one lightning cable on the other side so you can technically use this to charge your iPad Mini as well as your iPhone 13 mini now again it's only 1400 milliamp hour so it's not going to be a ton of battery but it does top you off and it will kind of make your maybe your iPhone 13 Mini battery life last you to the end of the day with some light extra use and what I like about this is that it comes with its own kind of proprietary charging stand so it does technically charge wirelessly on its own with its little holster which I put underneath my desk you kind of just slap it on there forget about it and then when you need it you grab that as well but it is great to have and it's very easy very small very portable and it gets the job done when you need it to my only gripe with it is that it does charge via micro USB or at least it's a micro USB cable to plug into the actual kind of Hub itself to charge it and I do wish you could actually charge this physically maybe have an external plug to recharge it on the go but overall as a extra 1400 milliamp hours I'll take it whenever I want to and now quickly I did want to mention audio so I just use the airpods pro Gen 2 very self-explanatory in my opinion it's the best headphones you can get for an Apple product they're normally a 250 retail from Apple but Amazon always has them on sale for around 200 sometimes 180 so I'll link that down below for you guys to check out and give you the best price that I could find but the airpods pro amazing noise cancellation for the size amazing transparency mode again for the size the battery life lasts a full 30 hours even with ANC turned on I've never had an issue with them they're definitely even better in a step up to the regular airpods Pro which I didn't think they'd be able to do or at least I didn't think it would be worth the upgrade going from the pro ones to the pro twos but it definitely is and if you're looking for a pair of earbuds to go with your Apple ecosystem then look no further so that is the one that I always carry with me and I even take them on long six hour plane rides and have no issues and I've never even considered getting the airpods max for 550 and then the last last few items that again I fit in this Mason EDC bag with room to spare the first one is a little kind of carrying case that kind of gives you I'll call it kind of your emergency kit your Tech emergency kit and it brings everything that you would need to charge your iPhone or even your iPad Mini now there's a lot of companies that make these I'm going to link one down below this one is by Ampere but I don't think they sell it anymore but the purpose is twofold or maybe even threefold so you open this up it's about the footprint of a credit card and the thickness of maybe three or four credit cards and inside of it it brings a SIM card ejection tool it brings one main USBC to USBC cable with adapters included so those adapters include a lightning cable a USB a cable as well as a micro USB cables so being able to plug this in and use it with this Hitachi external battery to charge the iPad Mini is great and then on top of that there's actually a little kickstand in here so you can use this as a phone stand or even an iPad Mini stand which is how I've been using it because since I've rocked the iPad Mini naked there's no way for me to stand it up but with this I just kind of open it up put the iPad Mini on there and it works as an iPad Mini stand which is great to see so very easy to use and this is definitely a great stocking stuffer a great Father's Day or Mother's Day gift to just always having a purse or always having a backpack because you never know when you're going to need an extra cable and I got two more items this item right here is paper likes cleaning kit I've mentioned this in the past before it's very easy to use it has a little bit of saline solution inside built into it and the actual bottle or the spray bottle is actually the microfiber cloth so all you do is you spray and then use the actual device itself to clean the screen of the iPad Mini or the iPhone 13 mini and it keeps everything just smudgeless and it keeps it fingerprint free and then lastly what I carry with me inside of this Mason EDC pouch is something that serves multiple purposes so this is also by patanka and it is a keychain that holds not only your air tag so it kind of lets you keep track of your Mason EDC carry because if you have everything in there now it's a very expensive bag with a lot of expensive stuff in there so you want to make sure that you can track it if it does get lost but not only does that kind of house that air pod nicely in a keychain form factor so it's easy to carry around but there's also a multi-tool so this multi-tool if you kind of open it up and it kind of has four different tools it's got a flathead screwdriver it's got a regular screwdriver it's got a hexagonal screwdriver which is very very useful and lastly it's got kind of like I'm not going to call it a knife because it's not sharp enough to kind of break skin or anything like that but it maybe is strong enough to pry open some tape or to pry something out of something it's very very sturdy very well built and again pataka makes some very quality products and this thing is no slouch it's definitely a little bit heavy and it's Hefty but it's that way for a purpose because the last thing you want to do is use a screwdriver and then it ends up breaking or bending because it's not strong enough or it's not well built enough so this is perfect for somebody that needs a multi-tool on the go it has small things that need to open and close that they're always maybe tinkering around or somebody that stands in an emergency flathead screwdriver that also can hold or house your air tag and that's what I use this thing for but that is everything that I bring with me for this mini Tech EDC that I wanted to share with you like you saw everything serves multiple purposes I have the 13 mini which is there to just take pictures that I use to kind of get me away from social media and get me away from constantly being on my phone the iPad Mini is for some leisure activities for maybe watching something on the go maybe even giving it to my daughter so she can watch a little bit of Miss Rachel or Bluey on Disney plus and then all the other products are just there to kind of enhance the experience and they serve multiple purposes like the battery with the stand or the battery that can that's a lot smaller they can charge everything like this pataka tool which not only kind of tracks your device but also can be used as a multi-tool whenever needed so overall I love the Mason EDC bag it's a new look I I think I'm going to be able to use it for a long time it's very well built the zippers are amazing the quality is amazing and I will link everything down below for everybody to check out but that's gonna do for this video Everybody let me know in the comment down below what you think are all these items necessary are these items something that you

intentional about the types of products that I bring with me on a daily basis especially on the weekends maybe I'm going on a day trip maybe I'm going on a short overnight trip but I don't need to bring my 12.9 inch iPad Pro with the magic keyboard and the apple pencil or I don't need to bring my MacBook Air because I'm in a situation where maybe something like an iPhone 13 mini or an iPad Mini will get the job done because now on the weekends I try to be a little bit more present but every now and then there are some things where I need a little bit of power to get a little bit of work done and these devices in this everyday carry which I'm about to show you has helped me accomplish those goals so in this video I want to walk you through my mini EDC because what I've realized is that when you're working with smaller devices especially with smaller displays you're less likely to go to them as often as let's say a 13 or 14 pro Max or a 12.9 inch iPad Pro without further Ado let me

again a quick weekend getaway or even to bring it with you on a daily basis if you're commuting and you just need quick access to some smaller items like chapstick or your phone or maybe your headphones so now now let's talk about the actual iPad Mini so like I said there is a sleeve inside the Mason pouch for the iPad Mini it is cushion it's protective so that is why I actually keep the iPad Mini completely naked and I have the lavender colorway in a 64 gig variant without actual data so this is the cheapest one you could get I believe it's 499 or 449 dollars for the actual base model and I do want to shout out Patrick Rambles and Steven Robles for consistently kind of showing some iPad Mini content and really kind of pushing me towards it because when the iPad Mini

see that it actually has some playback buttons so you're able to use this for Spotify for Apple music for Apple TV for anything that involves content so any streaming services it automatically will know what to do so if you press pause it's going to pause the video If you press forward it's going to skip to the next track on Apple music and like I said it works with Spotify YouTube music you name it this thing is really really cool to have and it's just one single USBC plug right in there and it fits perfectly in the EDC bag and I will link all these products down in the description below if you do want to check them out so if you see a product that you'd like click on one of them and you'll be able to get whatever the best deal is at that point so as I mentioned the iPhone 13 Mini battery life isn't amazing to begin with so I do have two kind of charging portable Solutions and kind of depending on what my day looks like or if I'm spending an overnight trip is depending on which one I bring so the first one is for that overnight maybe hotel stay or maybe you need a little bit more oomph for both the iPad any and the iPhone 13 mini so for that I bring the duo wireless charger by satechi and this is a 10 000 milliamp hour battery when you first look at it and like I mentioned most of these things are going to be dual purpose so the Dual Purpose for this one is that first off it charges two devices at once so it's perfect to charge your airpods wirelessly as well as your iPhone 13 mini wirelessly but then you also have the usb-c port on the back which outputs up to 15 or 18 watts of power I believe so it'll work to actually charge your iPad Mini as well if you have a USBC to usb-c cable but what I like about this is that you can actually prop this up and there's a stand aspect so you can actually stand up your iPhone to charge overnight on a nightstand and then on the rear charger airpods Pro but now this next charging solution is mostly for the day-to-day so if I'm just going on a long maybe New York City trip that goes from beginning to end in one single day I like to bring with me this new charger Bike company called rolling Square now this company I'm actually working on another video to kind of show you this modular kind of mobile setup which I leverage their products to actually get done so definitely stay tuned for a review on all their products but I wanted to show off one of them and this is called their Tau charger so this is a tiny 14 milliamp hour external battery it's exactly what it sounds like and what I like about this is that it can be kind of put on your keychain with this little Loop right here but the actual cores are built right in so it's got one usb-c port on one side and one lightning cable on the other side so you can technically use this to charge your iPad Mini as well as your iPhone 13 mini now again it's only 1400 milliamp hour so it's not going to be a ton of battery but it does top you off and it will kind of make your maybe your iPhone 13 Mini battery life last you to the end of the day with some light extra use and what I like about this is that it comes with its own kind of proprietary charging stand so it does technically charge wirelessly on its own with its little holster which I put underneath my desk you kind of just slap it on there forget about it and then when you need it you grab that as well but it is great to have and it's very easy very small very portable and it gets the job done when you need it to my only gripe with it is that it does charge via micro USB or at least it's a micro USB cable to plug into the actual kind of Hub itself to charge it and I do wish you could actually charge this physically maybe have an external plug to recharge it on the go but overall as a extra 1400 milliamp hours I'll take it whenever I want to and now quickly I did want to mention audio so I just use the airpods pro Gen 2 very self-explanatory in my opinion it's the best headphones you can get for an Apple product they're normally a 250 retail from Apple but Amazon always has them on sale for around 200 sometimes 180 so I'll link that down below for you guys to check out and give you the best price that I could find but the airpods pro amazing noise cancellation for the size amazing transparency mode again for the size the battery life lasts a full 30 hours even with ANC turned on I've never had an issue with them they're definitely even better in a step up to the regular airpods Pro which I didn't think they'd be able to do or at least I didn't think it would be worth the upgrade going from the pro ones to the pro twos but it definitely is and if you're looking for a pair of earbuds to go with your Apple ecosystem then look no further so that is the one that I always carry with me and I even take them on long six hour plane rides and have no issues and I've never even considered getting the airpods max for 550 and then the last last few items that again I fit in this Mason EDC bag with room to spare the first one is a little kind of carrying case that kind of gives you I'll call it kind of your emergency kit your Tech emergency kit and it brings everything that you would need to charge your iPhone or even your iPad Mini now there's a lot of companies that make these I'm going to link one down below this one is by Ampere but I don't think they sell it anymore but the purpose is twofold or maybe even threefold so you open this up it's about the footprint of a credit card and the thickness of maybe three or four credit cards and inside of it it brings a SIM card ejection tool it brings one main USBC to USBC cable with adapters included so those adapters include a lightning cable a USB a cable as well as a micro USB cables so being able to plug this in and use it with this Hitachi external battery to charge the iPad Mini is great and then on top of that there's actually a little kickstand in here so you can use this as a phone stand or even an iPad Mini stand which is how I've been using it because since I've rocked the iPad Mini naked there's no way for me to stand it up but with this I just kind of open it up put the iPad Mini on there and it works as an iPad Mini stand which is great to see so very easy to use and this is definitely a great stocking stuffer a great Father's Day or Mother's Day gift to just always having a purse or always having a backpack because you never know when you're going to need an extra cable and I got two more items this item right here is paper likes cleaning kit I've mentioned this in the past before it's very easy to use it has a little bit of saline solution inside built into it and the actual bottle or the spray bottle is actually the microfiber cloth so all you do is you spray and then use the actual device itself to clean the screen of the iPad Mini or the iPhone 13 mini and it keeps everything just smudgeless and it keeps it fingerprint free and then lastly what I carry with me inside of this Mason EDC pouch is something that serves multiple purposes so this is also by patanka and it is a keychain that holds not only your air tag so it kind of lets you keep track of your Mason EDC carry because if you have everything in there now it's a very expensive bag with a lot of expensive stuff in there so you want to make sure that you can track it if it does get lost but not only does that kind of house that air pod nicely in a keychain form factor so it's easy to carry around but there's also a multi-tool so this multi-tool if you kind of open it up and it kind of has four different tools it's got a flathead screwdriver it's got a regular screwdriver it's got a hexagonal screwdriver which is very very useful and lastly it's got kind of like I'm not going to call it a knife because it's not sharp enough to kind of break skin or anything like that but it maybe is strong enough to pry open some tape or to pry something out of something it's very very sturdy very well built and again pataka makes some very quality products and this thing is no slouch it's definitely a little bit heavy and it's Hefty but it's that way for a purpose because the last thing you want to do is use a screwdriver and then it ends up breaking or bending because it's not strong enough or it's not well built enough so this is perfect for somebody that needs a multi-tool on the go it has small things that need to open and close that they're always maybe tinkering around or somebody that stands in an emergency flathead screwdriver that also can hold or house your air tag and that's what I use this thing for but that is everything that I bring with me for this mini Tech EDC that I wanted to share with you like you saw everything serves multiple purposes I have the 13 mini which is there to just take pictures that I use to kind of get me away from social media and get me away from constantly being on my phone the iPad Mini is for some leisure activities for maybe watching something on the go maybe even giving it to my daughter so she can watch a little bit of Miss Rachel or Bluey on Disney plus and then all the other products are just there to kind of enhance the experience and they serve multiple purposes like the battery with the stand or the battery that can that's a lot smaller they can charge everything like this pataka tool which not only kind of tracks your device but also can be used as a multi-tool whenever needed so overall I love the Mason EDC bag it's a new look I I think I'm going to be able to use it for a long time it's very well built the zippers are amazing the quality is amazing and I will link everything down below for everybody to check out but that's gonna do for this video Everybody let me know in the comment down below
