LOVE the : "it doesn't mean you have to buy all new gears or the latest gadgets"
As long as you can make your things organized, it'll look really nice
finallyyy a productive setup that isn't apple yaaay really enjoyed the video!!!
glad you enjoyed! 🤗
I am also looking for a set up LIKE THIS
Yes exactly!!!!
Ikrrr totally agreeee
FR
ahhhh! this is so simple yet aesthetic !!! not a Filipino so i converted the price to my currency and the budget is rly just fine! this shows you don't need to buy high-end gadgets/ expensive desk stuffs to get a pretty workspace. love the video! coco at the end is so cute tho T_T
aww, thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰🙏🏻
Your laptop has solid specs considering it's already more than 5 years old, some desktops don't even have 16GB RAM and a terabyte SSD. I super love your WFH set up too, it's so simple and clean ♥
haven't realized this til i posted this video and got similar comments like this! 😅 thanks for stopping by 🥰
@@KristerAnne hi po!! Do you recommend this laptop po ba? Im planning to buy one po kasi
@@kristinaarambula4678 hi, this is a 6-year-old laptop na po so i'm not sure lang po if may bago nang model :) i suggest getting a newer model nalang para mas matagal pa lifetime.
@@KristerAnne @Krister Anne hi ma'am i currently pursuing my Wfh po. Kaya lang i really can't afford the laptop for now lalo na brand new tapos kung 2nd hand naman not sure kung okay.
Requirements kasi at least 8gb tapos yung processor mblis dn i know you get me.
My husbany is a construction worker and I'm also a mother of two so kaya hindi pa kaya maka afford yan lagi ko problema pag dtng sa final lagi naliligwak at inaayawan di kasi nila covered ang equipment. Kung sakali po bang magpapalit kayo pwede kaya sakin niyo nalang po ibenta yan at least po maka sure ako na hindi ako ma scam o kaya magkaprob... Ots really a big help po kung sakali lang naman po Ma'am. Just want to work kahit nasa bahay para maasikaso parin asawa at mga anak pero yan ang naghohold sakin pag dting sa equipment
Thank you so much po

i agree 💕
I dont watch a lot of filipino youtubers but this video is oddly relaxing all the way through.
aww thank you! 😊❤️
what does being filipino have to do with anything .. 😭
Are u kidding me? What’s wrong with the filipino?
your video just helped me realize I can make my work more productive by cleaning up my desk and transforming it without spending much, thank you!
not a single apple product in sight, but still good quality stuff that more people can afford! love this
Hi! you can still use your laptop screen while having an external display. better to have more screen real estate like using the other screen for videos or spotify while doing emails at the same time without alt tabbing.
great idea! thanks for the suggestion ❤️
@@KristerAnne Or you can just leave it close to save battery
let us all take a moment of silence to appreciate how adorable her puppies are... Amen
amen 🤩😂
OMG BTS BTS ARMY
@@KESTRAL23 YIEEEE HI!
@@wonzy4951 yessss

Xiaomi products are famous too here in India. And most of the people prefer them, either it is phone or TV. But 90% of them are locally manufactured and a few are imported. I really like the minimal arrangement of your workspace. Thinking to give a try soon 😁
xiaomi products are quality made ❤️
I dont always watch other Filipinos on YT but the aesthetics are too nice to pass up
shot on iphone i guess
sorry but i am right it is shot on iphone
Edi wow
@@ghifariahmad3098 why do did you assume that in the first place?
@@nyx0838 cause i've seen like this before
while searching for minimalist gaming set up Yt brings me here really good set up!
"gaming"
i got my eyes so comfortable in here, watching you prepare it one by one. you got mee +1 subs.
thank you! this means a lot 😍
5:49 the way your dog sleeps with his tongue sticking out makes me wanna 😩🤚🥺🥺
First time seeing REAL budget setup! Very appreciate that 🙏
glad you liked it! 💖
omg so relaxing.. 🤩 WFH din kami and plano ko mag set up ng working table ko and last week ang plano ko talaga is Gaming Accent theme yung may mga led na umiilaw ilaw.. pero after ko mapanood to mukang mas ma rerelax ako dito mag work at magging productive ako sa ganitong vibes, ndi ko mararamdaman yung stress na dala ng work.. 😁 thank u for this nagkaroon ako ng idea kung anong mga bibilhin at saan. sakto nag bigay din ng budget ang office namin to set up our own office set up at home.. 🥰😍😁
The sleeping dogs haha love it!
Just seeing her hand is already a big happiness for me
Try to use "Extend Display" on your screen setting, so you can use 2 monitor at the same time and it's better for your multitasking jobs
great tip! thanks for the idea ❤️
Love this! With all the budget options. My laptop stand rn is a pile of books. Was looking at all the aspirational interior design-type desk setups, but I don't have a job atm so can't afford £1000s
That Xiaomi monitor though 😍 So happy to see someone using a brand I love. love the aesthetic 🙌🏽
i love xiaomi products ☺️ thank you for watching! 💕
Toshiba laptops were the best!! I miss them so much!!
they were! someone can finally relate! 😅
Yow that Itachi Login Screen is so so so unexpected! Dope! 🔥
Good choice of peripherals Xiaomi lang malakas! 😁
haha! you found the easter egg! 😅 thank you so much for watching ❤️

I like this, because it is do-able and really affordable unlike most of the budget setups by other youtubers. Thanks for sharing the process! :D
update
Everything was normal until she turned the monitor on. I was like wtf?!!! Itachi!❤️ I already like this girl!😂
thankyou for you cosy video, i was falling asleep.i love very much your desk composition.for complete the angle, over the monitor i was thinking to put a shelf
I liked the way how you represented your video as well as the products you got (not expensive and yet highly functional) definitely a LIKE + SUB you deserve it!
thank you so much! this means a lot 🙈💞
Nice clean setup. Just a suggestion. You can actually use your laptop screen as well even when hooked up to a monitor. So you can be more productive. :) Thanks for showing a non-Apple laptop desk setup. :)
this is so cute! i'm definitely saving the items on your description box for future use :) thanks for sharing!
you're welcome! glad you found this helpful :)
I really loved this video, thank you for the inspiration
will consider this next time! thanks for telling me :)
love your editing and music choices :) really inspiring since im planning on building my desk set up
thanks for the appreciation 😊 and go for it! ❤️
very nice budget setup .... the only thing left is the elevate the monitor height with a tall desktop shelf or an articulated monitor stand.
planning to upgrade that part soon! thanks for the advice 😊
Love your desk setup choice!!! simple but useful!!! And also fits in the whole environment so well🤗🤗 New sub here:-)
O my God how its beautiful aesthetic and really cozy! thanks for this video!
i love thissssss. first, i love ur aesthetic. second, ur an army. third, u watch anime. fourth, your editing and the last YOUR DOG
I LOVE YOUR BGM!!
thank you! 😊
I have a pretty similar setup with almost the same type of items, different brands thou and a small cactus plant. Plus no dogs 🥺😭
I have my workspace set up as well..I’m a nurse too and I add eng subtitles kdrama shows as my hobby..my son sat on my brand new laptop and cracked the screen so I bought a monitor…one hack I found I’d you go into your power setting you can change it to close your laptop and it will stay on..frees up space!..love your video..stay safe
thank you so much for your kind words 🥰 noted on that hack, i have been doing it for a while now 💞
YOUR DESK IS SO NEAT I REALLY LIKE ITT!!!!
thank you so much! 💖
SO PRETTYYY 😩❤️ u actually convinced me to get a xiaomi monitor. thank u so much for this video ❤️❤️❤️
awww glad to help! thanks 🥰
8:23 SO PRETTY~
thank you :)
I really like the vibe, it's so aesthetics setup there, also It look so gorgeous

This is exactly the vision I have for my workspace. You have even further clarified that vision.
I really like this video. Just a few bucks and I'll have something exactly identical.
Well done 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
glad this was helpful! thanks for stopping by ☺️
update bro
I LOVE YOUR DESSSKKK!! NICE, ATE < 333
i just love how it is so calming and neat and ofcourse the puppy uwu 💛
thank you so much for coming here :D
I'm also using a dining table for my work desk! lol I have thought about swapping it out for a real office desk but it's feels like a waste! You're is glass and that's quite unique :)
I knew that was Yoongi! Nice video!💜
Nakakagulat si Itachi biglang nasa Login Screen ahhahahaha
omg your dog is an absolute cutieeeee 🫶🫶🫶🫶
ahahahuhu thank you! 🥰
I bought a laptop stand a few days ago. It has been really a revolution for me as I always felt neck pain because i need to bend down to access the screen. It worth every cent. Everyone works with laptop should purchase this item.
Uhm, actually you can set your laptop to stay logging on when closing the case. And closing the case will create more space for space.
right! thanks for the tips! :)
my laptop is Toshiba too and i have to say that after 7 years this laptop works and looks like a new one.
woah almost as old as mine! 😳
That Toshiba laptop looks astonishingly mint! That's a real benchmark for cleanliness. XD
this is so cute i liked your videos n u cute too ngl ur fits look so comfortable
Maybe try cable managing with a power strip just double side tape it to the bottom then plug everything on there you will get more places to plug things in and it will look way cleaner. :)
great tip!! will try that for next time :)
love this so much. might take this as one of my inspos for my set up :D
Like the lamp idea
I loved the minimalist approach its cute and just as required 😍💜
thank you! glad it got the message across :)
This is absolutely amazing I keep stopping ur video to see what type of things you used I really like this aesthetic but I'm the type of person who changes there aesthetic every 2 days so this has inspired me tyms!! If I do, do a setup like this I will definitely credit you if I start to stream or content create tyms for inspiring me ILY UR SETUP BTW AMAZING!!! 🥰😊✨🌱
so glad you found this helpful! good luck to your plans
Love your setup! Simple & nothing flashy!
thank you 🥺💕
that itachi wallpaper tho

This is ssoo relaxing and it helped me a lot!

so relaxing to watch.. especially your dogs so cute....
btw nice setup :)
I like it, it looks smooth and clean
thank you for appreciating ☺️
Love ur thumbnail and editing! ❤️❤️❤️
aww, thanks for appreciating! 🥺💞
This remind me of the rough time in 2020, the sudden lockdown and my new desktop not arriving, I have got only one budget laptop and an old school external screen to do all the works my boss threw me😂
good old times indeed 😆
Ahh Xiaomi, a very underrated brand in my opinion. I wish we had more products available in my country. I currently own the mi5 phone, been using it for 5 years, unfortunately, the battery is completely dead even tho the phone is working fine. I'm having issues finding a replacement. *sighs. Anyways, very nice video and your doggy is the cutest thing ever.
i totally agree with you! i hope the brand expands their availability to other regions so that more people can benefit from their quality yet cheap products :)
Looks neat and Clean. Good Job!!! Better than my setup. hahaha
i’m sure you can do better! 😃
I'm Brazilian Nursing student and your set up looks Very clean, with something like that i'd boost my performance, i Just have 9.7 inch 2018 iPad and the kitchen table hahaha.
Wow. That's so sleek. I like it so much.
glad you liked it :)
Aww what a cute setup 😍
thank you for dropping by! ❤️
Your laptop for a 7 year old computer has very nice components! If you want it to be even faster and better you could chand the hard drive for a solid state drive!
Its going to make a big change on speed and battery lasting.
thanks for the great tip! appreciate it
Soothing video and what a beautiful setup ❤️❤️
thank you so much 💕🌷
Thank yoy so much for this video! I have to admit I'll "steal" your set up, because it's so convenient for me, now that I am an online teacher.
aww thank you! glad this helped :)
Your setup is too nice lol. actually feels workable than my pieced together party table and 10 year old desktop computer
lol omg thanks a lot! 🥰
As a graphics and Web designer i would consider a 37" professional display unit with 99%, & 100% coverage of Adobe RGB, SRGB with out of the box calibration and being PANTONE validated. Beside, Logitech Craft as such products are generally geared for creative entrepreneur's.
I love it very cozy and simple
So cool cozy setup
thank you! 🫶🏻
Those keyboard typing at the intro magically synced to the song. S H E E S H
thanks for noticing 😉
Can't seem to get enough of your videos, Kris. =P
Nice set up! Make sure to get a nice pair of headphones to finish it off! The Bose 700 UC is a great option.
thanks! that's the plan! :D
Very good setup. I noticed your lamp’s bulb is not centered. I have a similar one. You can actually move the bulb. Just slightly push it to the center. Don’t worry it is safe. The bulb holder is using flexible metal.
oh wow okay, thanks for the tip! ☺️
Nicee. Thank you for this content, I can finally assure myself of one legitimate monitor product in shoppee 🥰
Stay safe and healthy! And thank you for your service to our country
Side note: Your dogs are so cute 🥺
aww thanks! 🥰
This was in my recommended, btw this is a good setup and nice lightings.
hey, thanks for dropping by 😊
If you have time on your hands try linux with ricing it up a bit with window managers and stuff...but great vid!
thanks for the tip! :)
So love your videos!
thanks so much ! 💕
sooooo cleaaaaan! Good Job!
yay!!! 🖤
Hi, I think you need a USB Hub because whenever you want to bring your laptop outside, unplug everything maybe lead to a terible feeling. With USB Hub you just unplug 1 single USB. Very convenient
great idea! thanks for the tip :)
5:45 UR DOG IS SO CUTEEEEEE😭😭
😭😭😭
I like this, simple and nice
Wow.. Minimal and Functional Desk... Thanks for the inspo..
Nice video, but i would like to suggest an alternative monitor, Dell Pro P2319H, as Xiaomi monitor don't have VESA mount which is crucial if you want to use monitor arm. Also with just a bit more, the Dell monitor have extension cable to add 4 more USB slots on the screen, which is much more convenient, especially if you prefer wired keyboard and mouse.
thanks for the reco! should have considered it :(
We have the same monitor! except that I bought the 28 inches one
Beautiful & efficient, all you need!
oh this video is giving me so nice vibe 😍
thank you 😊
