On this week’s episode of The MacRumors Show podcast, we talk about our Apple device setups, must-have non-Apple gadgets, and Black Friday deals.

After a busy year of new Apple product launches, we’re taking a step back to look at our current device setups, why we chose the devices we bought, and how we use them every day – using our experiences as a springboard to guide others through new device purchases ahead of Black Friday weekend and the holiday season. We also touch on some of the best non-Apple gadgets that fit into our device ecosystems, including the Kindle, Oura Ring, Keychron K3, and Ember Smart Mug 2, and discuss how to approach Black Friday deals as as an Apple user.
