Introduction
This video reviews tech products created by various popular YouTubers. The host, Mrwhosetheboss, tests each product, providing ratings and commentary. The purpose is to evaluate the quality and practicality of YouTuber-branded merchandise.
Key Takeaways
MrMobile's Clicks smartphone keyboard: Rated 4/10. While innovative, its large size and finicky wireless charging hinder its usability.
Hank Green's reverse 3D glasses: Rated 8/10. A clever solution to the problem of 3D movie headaches, effectively converting 3D to 2D.
Simone Giertz's Goal Calendar: Rated 8/10. A functional habit tracker with premium materials (24-karat gold-plated touchpads), though the touch interface is somewhat fiddly.
Star Wars Theory's Fallen Knight lightsaber: Rated 5/10. Impressive design and features, but the company's sourcing from a Chinese manufacturer at a markup diminishes its value proposition.
JayzTwoCents' Spider-Man web shooter: A fun, albeit imperfect toy with a high success rate for its intended purpose. Rating not explicitly given but implied to be positive.
JerryRigEverything's utility knife: Rated 6.5/10. A well-designed, sharp knife with a secure locking mechanism. However, the closing mechanism poses a safety concern.
Tech Burner's Anarch smartwatch: Rating not explicitly given, but heavily criticized for inaccurate activity and sleep tracking despite good design.
The Hacksmith's miniature lightsaber: Rated 9/10. High quality and innovative design, even offering color-changing flame inserts.
Ara's pizza sauce: Rated 7/10. A clever product, though the "turns anything into pizza" claim is somewhat misleading.
Linus Tech Tips' screwdriver: Rated 9.5/10. A high-quality screwdriver, resulting from collaboration with an existing manufacturer, demonstrating smart product development.
Ryan Trahan's Joyide Candy: Rated 6.5/10. Good-tasting candy with healthier ingredients, though the "no junk" claim is slightly misleading and the price point is high.
Marques Brownlee's (MKBHD) wallpaper app: Rated 6/10. Improved since initial launch, offering a slick interface and high-quality wallpapers, although some collections are expensively priced.
Vsauce's Curiosity Box: Rated 7/10. Fun and engaging, but the skills learned aren't particularly practical, and the price point is high relative to the content.
Unbox Therapy's Later Case: Rated 5/10. An incredibly thin phone case, but lacks scratch resistance, and MagSafe compatibility is weak.
