# What I Use > Hardware, software, and tools that Sergei G. uses daily **Canonical:** **Translations:** [English](https://grishy.dev/en/uses.md), [Русский](https://grishy.dev/ru/uses.md) --- A living list of the hardware, software, and small tools I use regularly. I currently use two laptops: a 16" **MacBook Pro M3 Max** as my main machine and a 13" **MacBook Air M4** for travel and lighter work away from the desk. A **Mini-PC** running Linux handles small 24/7 scripts and stores photos and files. Most of the time I work while traveling, so the default setup is intentionally small: laptop, **keyboard**, **mouse**, and **laptop stand**. When I stay at home for a while, I add a monitor, microphone, and ergonomic peripherals. ![MacBook on the table in front of an open window](https://grishy.dev/_astro/egor-myznik-jOY8pqtttTE-unsplash.ClfiHzPS.avif) ## Hardware - [MacBook Pro 16", M3 Max, 36GB, 2024](https://support.apple.com/en-us/111838) - my main machine. - [MacBook Air 13", M4, 2024](https://support.apple.com/en-us/118551) - for travel and lighter work away from the desk. - [MacBook Pro 16", i9, 64GB, 2019](https://support.apple.com/en-us/111932) - a backup laptop in case something happens to the main one. - [Anker 737 Charger (GaNPrime 120W)](https://www.anker.com/products/a2148?variant=41974285172886) - instead of the standard charger because it is lighter and more convenient for travel. - Mini-PC [Beelink EQ12 N100](https://www.bee-link.com/products/eq12-n100) - a small home server and backup Linux work computer. - 2x [Samsung SSD 870 EVO 4TB](https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/870-evo-sata-2-5-ssd-1tb-mz-77e1t0b-am/) - one inside the Beelink, the other for backups. - Router with OpenWrt [Beryl AX (GL-MT3000)](https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mt3000/) - for a stable home and travel network. - [Roost V3](https://www.therooststand.com/) - a laptop stand that helps relieve neck and back strain. - [Keychron K3 Pro (Red)](https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k3-pro-qmk-via-wireless-custom-mechanical-keyboard) - wireless keyboard. - [Logitech MX Anywhere 3S](https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/mice/mx-anywhere-3s.910-006925.html) - wireless mouse. - [Sony WH-1000XM5](https://electronics.sony.com/audio/headphones/headband/p/wh1000xm5-b) - excellent wireless headphones. - [AirPods Pro, 2nd gen.](https://support.apple.com/en-us/111851) - headphones for the gym and city, light and convenient. - [iPhone 11](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_11) - main phone. - [Galaxy A03](https://www.samsung.com/latin_en/smartphones/galaxy-a/galaxy-a03-black-32gb-sm-a035mzkdtpa/) - backup Android phone.
