    Beyond YouTube + The Notebook You’ll Never Throw Away! #804

    Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #802 hosted by Don Baine. This week on The Gadget Professor, we’re exploring some interesting alternatives to YouTube! We’ll take a look at a number of different YouTube-like websites that can open the door to all kinds of interesting, entertaining, educational, and useful information. If you enjoy discovering new content on the Internet, you may be surprised at what’s available beyond YouTube. Then it’s time for our Gadget of the Week — ROCKETBOOK! I’ve been using Rocketbook digital notebooks for many, many years, and I still find them incredibly useful. Rocketbook gives you the convenience of writing on paper while bringing your handwritten notes into the digital world. You can write notes, draw diagrams, make lists, scribble ideas, doodle — basically anything you would normally put on paper — and then quickly digitize and organize it. But this isn’t ordinary paper. The special Rocketbook pages are reusable, so when you’re finished with your notes, you can wipe the pages clean and use the notebook again and again. With proper care, a Rocketbook can last for years. Rocketbook also uses a clever system of symbols and QR technology that works with the Rocketbook app to help you scan, organize, and send your handwritten material to digital destinations. It’s simple, useful, reusable, environmentally friendly — and surprisingly affordable. I’ll show you exactly how Rocketbook works and why, after using these notebooks for years, I’m still using them today. All that and more, this week on The Gadget Professor! If you enjoy discovering the latest technology, amazing gadgets, money-saving tips, and practical tech that makes life easier, you’ve come to the right place.

    NEW Insta360 X6! See What X5 360° Camera Can Do

    Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #803 hosted by Don Baine. This week on The Gadget Professor, we’re diving into the exciting world of 360° video! First, we’ll take a look at Insta360’s newest 360 camera, the X6. If you’ve never experienced what a 360 camera can actually do, I’ll show you some real 360° footage I recorded last week while I was in Edinburgh, Scotland. It’s pretty cool stuff—and a great example of why 360 cameras are so much fun to use. Then, we’ll check out the mouth-watering new video Insta360 released today, showcasing the X6 and some of its latest features and capabilities. And that’s not all! I’ll also introduce you to HandBrake, one of the most popular video compression programs available today—and best of all, it’s 100% FREE. If you have large video files taking up too much space or you need to shrink a video so it’s easier to store, transfer, or play on another device, HandBrake can make a huge difference. I’ll show you a simple, super-fast way to use HandBrake without getting bogged down in all those confusing settings. 360° cameras, incredible footage from Edinburgh, the new Insta360 X6, and a terrific FREE video tool—all on this week’s Gadget Professor!

    I Trusted AI to Replace My 10-Year-Old Surface Pro… Here’s What Happened #798

    Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #798 hosted by Don Baine. After nearly 10 years of faithful service, my Microsoft Surface Pro has finally reached its limit. The battery now lasts about 15 minutes—if I’m lucky! It’s been an incredible computer, but when a battery barely gets you through a cup of coffee, it’s probably time to start looking for a replacement. So here’s the question… What should I buy next? Rather than relying on online reviews or marketing hype, I decided to ask three of today’s most popular AI assistants for advice: Microsoft Copilot Perplexity AI ChatGPT I gave each AI the exact same challenge. I explained that I’m a professional content creator who records weekly shows, edits in Adobe Premiere Pro, works extensively with AI tools, records with Riverside, travels frequently, and needs a computer powerful enough to last for years. The answers were fascinating. Some recommendations were exactly what I expected… Others completely surprised me. Even more interesting, each AI used a different approach to arrive at its recommendation. Which one gave the best advice? Which one missed the mark? And did they all agree on the same computer? The final conclusion surprised even me. Join me as we compare the recommendations, discuss what really matters when buying a high-performance laptop in 2026, and reveal which computer earned the top spot. If you’re thinking about replacing your current PC, this episode may save you time, money, and a lot of frustration. Let’s get started!
