Strange gadgets

Poor speaker and weak magnet, but the battery-sustaining idea is oddly useful, so a surprise 7 out of 10.

Finds it the strangest case he has tested, but is intrigued that the colour e-ink display runs on NFC with no battery.

The best water gun available, with clever features, but poor value at $250.

A pointless device that could have been an app, with poor battery life and security problems.

Surreal to control by tilting a phone, but he questions why anyone would choose it over a drone, with quieter flight the only clear benefit.

He found the Pikachu spinning top odd to use and poor next to a real Beyblade.

He finds the coin-eating money bag a bit freaky but does not give a clear judgement.

A face mask packed with features that fails at the basic job of sealing around the face.

He was impressed by how dark the paint is, which made the phone look like a flat black void.

A 50 cent whistle that is surprisingly loud for the price.

A $6 pouch whistle that forces air through by squeezing, giving a shorter, sharper sound.

A professional referee whistle with a claimed range of up to a mile, noticeably more powerful than the previous ones.

The loudest whistle in the test, with a 2 mile range and underwater use, loud enough to nearly deafen him despite ear protection.

He is amazed that the world's largest iPhone is really a high-end gaming PC that runs full Windows and games.

Shows off a giant working iPhone whose flash is so bright it feels like walking into the sun.

A custom oversized USB-C cable built to deliver lots of power to the giant iPhone, with strong magnets.

A five-screen pixel display that looks fun from a distance but does nothing a phone can't and has poor quality.

The spoon turned out to be a normal spoon with a battery and an LED, and he scores it 8/10 as a spoon but poorly as tech.

A smart fork that does buzz when you eat too fast, but the companion app no longer exists, so he gives it 7 out of 10.

The shoes protected the foot from fire, water and puncture far better than a normal pair, and look surprisingly ordinary.

A spaghetti-shaped serving spoon that looks terrifying but grips pasta well.

A giant pencil sharpener for carrots that works and looks presentable, but leaves a dangerously pointy carrot.

A novelty double pizza cutter that works, and cuts better than a normal single wheel.

A gun-shaped bottle opener that works as he expected, with magnets keeping the cap in the chamber.
