Finally jumped onto the Google Home bandwagon.

Last year, I decided not to buy it despite it being priced at US$99 (S$136) because the ecosystem was not very mature yet. Fast forward six months later, it has improved quite a bit.

I bought the Cable Matters 2-Pack, Gold Plated DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable (6 Feet) on Amazon for US$17.99 (S$25).

I bought it together with the Cable Matters Thunderbolt 3 to Dual 4K or Single 5K DisplayPort Adapter.

I was looking for an adapter that allows me to output to two external displays using just a single port and I realized that USB-C is not the way to go. USB-C specifications only allow one external display per USB-C port.

So the next logical thing to search is for Thunderbolt 3 adapters and I found the Cable Matters Thunderbolt 3 to Dual 4K or Single 5K DisplayPort Adapter from Amazon retailing for US$79.99 (S$112).

Bought the Anker PowerPort 6 5V/12A 6-Port Wall Charger on Amazon for US$20.49 (S$29).

Its usual retail price is US$26.99 (S$38) but because of an ongoing promotion, you can use the promo code, GEYC7LFE, and it will give you a discount of US$6.50.

I guess most people have not heard of the brand Freecam before. If you tried Googling for the word “freecam”, you would chance upon a lot of NSFW links. I wished they have a better name.

Apple Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad was launched back on 5th June 2017 during WWDC 2017.

It retails for S$188 and that makes it S$40 more expensive than the Apple Magic Keyboard which retails for S$148.
