1-explanation for normal gimmick is not ok
2-you should have the cover case for your cellphone,be honest with u it doesn’t work without cover case.
3-price is high for what you receive
4-you need to practice a lot and careful of light condition
5-you need to add something for direct light of your i phone
6-is more for comedy magic as Tobias explained and is match with his style.
7-this is not something everybody can do easily
8-spectators easily can guess how does it work if your angle is not good.

You just sound like a child or an old man that isn’t willing to practice based off those points. If you are gonna try to make a bullet point review please make sure you don’t sound like an idiot first....

all these points are tedious! This product is something unique as a gimmick, as an idea and as a magic effect. Endless possibilities! Some magicians who love sponge balls only they will not understand :)

Sorry, but all of those statements are ill informed or at best or just plain wrong at worst. I've been playing with this for the last 4 hours or so and can say: you don't need a flip case... I can see that it would make the execution and angles easier to manage, but with just a bit of fine tuning/actual practice (all good things require work, as a magician you should know that) this is entirely practical as a street effect. Audience management is important, but not even that difficult.

Maybe you haven't watched the entire tutorial? There is a section on using the ground as opposed to a wall.

I simply think you are upset at having to put some work in to achieve the magic you desire. Stick with it and you will be rewarded with one of the most Astonishing things I've seen in my 30 years of magic.

In any event, all the best in your magical pursuits.

Cheers,
Ken.

The old adage is correct "If it looks too good to be true, it probably is". This simply looked way too good to be performed without a LOT of caveats & conditions attached. I wish they had mentioned all the legit limitations in the advt copy. Even Omissions can be a form of lying. You simply don't disclose the full truth to potential buyers & to me that's pretty close to false advertising. Making something look like it's easy using EDITED performances under the most IDEAL conditions only!
