A tech reviewer says yes to every pitch, testing a $3,600 Sony Bravia 9 II, a triple-screen laptop, and a robot that flips.
A tech reviewer revisits his “say yes to everything” experiment, opening with an $800 smart toilet whose Bluetooth remote needs unbundled AAA batteries. The Xbook triple-screen laptop earns 2/10 despite its unusual folding layout, while Garmin’s $200 screenless tracker gets 6.5/10 and Casana’s $200 toilet seat adds health monitoring but charges $10 monthly after its first year. A $200 BUSY Bar wins 8/10 for turning a status light into a satisfying smart-home timer. The biggest surprise is Mondo Robotics’ Beni: a 4K-following robot that avoids obstacles, flips, and reaches 18 mph, earning 10/10. Other verdicts include 8/10 for a fan-equipped Noctua mouse, 9/10 for Honor’s gimbal-camera Robot Phone, and 4/10 for a $1,200 AI massage chair. The reviewer also samples $280 Skullcandy bass-heavy headphones, a $150 handheld gaming PC, and Sony’s $3,600 Bravia 9 II, praising its brightness and anti-glare finish while flagging oversaturated reds. He closes by calling guaranteed coverage requests a creator red flag.
