Orbitkey Nest - Review

Orbitkey Nest - An honest warts and all review to show some of the quality and design problems with this product, including issues not mentioned, to my knowledge, by any other reviewers.
Some commentators have suggested that I bought this product only to negatively review it, and that I have been at times dishonest and at other times have "staged" what you see. None of this is true. The video is unedited and is just my experience - there are plenty of other reviewers who think this product is the bee's knees. I gain nothing by making these reviews, good or bad. I have no ulterior motives. If you don't agree with my review, that's fine, and feel free to express it, but without any personal attack on me and without any suggestion that I am hypocritical or in any way that questions my integrity.
All of my reviews are independent and are of products that I have purchased myself. To help defray those costs, you can donate as little as € 1 to me at ko-fi.com/grahamrhind . The more that is donated, the more reviews I can post. You can also leave comments if you want to see a review of any specific product. Thank you.

    I agree that the Orbitkey Nest may be overpriced, but I disagree that the Nest cannot be a very useful tool for organizing many of the items we pull out of ourpockets at the end of a day. It also helps one not to overlook anything when we are reloading our pockets the next morning! In any event, thanks for a very candid review.

    The MOST honest real review on ANYTHING I've seen. Your video made my choice to NOT purchase this product!!! Thank you

    The top is actually natural top grain leather. Anyway it's not for everyone.

    Thanks for sharing! I hadn’t heard of this product before and was honestly waiting for a grand reveal for the moment you would open it and it would actually become clear what it was (a planner? A special device for storing keys?). Well, it turned out to be a glorified box so alas, it’s not for me… but very entertaining and helpful video nonetheless!

    Yeah, I'm definitely not the intended demographic for this box. I'm a massive nerd for organizing stuff and I like to keep my handbag arranged so everything's easy to find, but not for this price. Add in the velcro and elastic and I am very firmly uninterested. There are so many well designed tech organizers on the market, I honestly don't see why anyone would pick this one. The wireless charger is a bit different, but honestly? Not worth it. (Also I really think it looks like a bento lunchbox. Nothing wrong with that, but I wouldn't pay triple digits for it 🤷)

    I wish I'd seen this before I bought it. I thought I could remotely charge my phone with the case when working remotely. However I find now that I have it it has to be plugged in to charge - I mean, what's the point?! I could have just used the case I had. Over priced, wouldn't recommend it at all.

    I appreciate well-thought-out and honest reviews, but purchasing a product from the outset due to personal reasons or dislike reflects a rather negative disposition, firstly. Secondly, it's evident that the somewhat clumsy manual skills in the produced video already hint at the direction. In my opinion, this approach is just as problematic as the uncritical fanboy community. Thirdly, the known price should not be a reason for complaint. All the information provided by the company is accurate. However, the low point was reached when the statement was made to avoid products from China. It's easy to overlook that nearly all showcased products on this channel, whether partially or entirely, originate from China - be it colors, plastics, computer chips, even nail polish for "men," and more. It's all too easy to forget that even if supposedly "every" material is claimed to come from Italy or another country, these companies source the necessary machinery for production, raw materials, or required accessories like buttons and thread from China. If you belong to "those" who tend to mix everything up, I also wonder why a 1-layer version of an organizational system, inherently rejected, was chosen. For instance, I wouldn't buy an iPhone anymore because, in my opinion, it's an overpriced piece of technology with a built-in expiration date and dependency on other Apple devices, designed to sell the brand name and increase in price by 20% every year. This judgment doesn't deceive anyone about the actual circumstances. The product is what it is, and whether one likes it or not is entirely subjective. I also don't like the new KZread policy where the dislike count is no longer visible. As a result, I would have saved my time watching this video, but that seems to be the purpose behind it - to make money. bless the AdBlock

    I like a warts-and-all review of a warts-and-all review ;-) For the record, I didn't buy the product in order to diss it, and I wanted to check whether my "mix up" way of carry items would work with it. I don't have money to throw away to review items I don't think can be useful. I do actually still use it to charge my phone on my desk, but not to carry anything around. Clearly, if it works for others, that's great. This review provides a counterpoint to the many paid and promotional type reviews by "influencers" - that's what it is, but not what I planned when buying it. Obviously many products and many products that make many products originate in China. That won't stop me trying to ensure I keep the number of those items as low as possible. I'm not any more clumsy than anybody else, and I'm not sure what the comment on the nail polish or the reason for the quotation marks around "men" is, but I suspect that I'd better not go there. I use a product to stop my nails splitting, if that's what you're seeing - vegan and made in France. Too late, I know, but the video currently has 20.8% dislikes, by far the highest of any video on my channel. So, not universally liked, but still appreciated by the majority.

    @@GrahamRhind As mentioned earlier, everyone has their own opinion. I could search for the "clumsy staged scenes" again, but that would take more time, which I don't want to invest. Not that it wouldn't be worthwhile, but I believe you understand what I mean, rendering this discussion unnecessary. The purpose behind such endeavors is essentially an illusion (China embargo), as nowadays everything related to our "luxury" either comes from there or is produced with their assistance. And we certainly don't want to do without luxury, do we? Whether you choose to address the nail polish or not is up to you ^^ The quotation marks are placed where they belong. There are many things in this world that are now blurred or, let's call it, laundered. However, one doesn't have to approve of everything or accept it for oneself. It is important that we are allowed to express our opinions because even as the world changes, thankfully, we still have a certain degree of freedom of speech. The beauty of the world, which politics is currently attempting to abolish, is that we can still say what we want, albeit not as freely as it should be. Even if you are not pleased with my comment, it doesn't mean I am demeaning you as a person or a KZreadr. I have simply expressed my opinion on this video and wanted to know, out of curiosity, how many dislikes it has. Wishing you a pleasant evening and much success with your YT channel greetings PS: As I mentioned, I also cannot endorse these fanboy-purchased items, which is why I typically seek out critical reviews.
