Revainrating 2 out of 5

Missing Polish best in my review

Before I go into detail I should explain, this product **IS** above most of the competition, however it is still lacking refinement.Pros:• Cost - This product is cheaper than competitors and provides a better product.• Feel - This product feels amazing in the hand. Lightweight, smooth, quality metal, and pleasant looking finish.• Included Bits - The included bits feel quality enough, so long as you can get over the jank tube system.• Magnetic Pad - This is the most quality part of the whole package and the only way I could improve it is by making it a dry erase board.Cons:• Defective Tighten Button - My Wowstick 1F+ arrived with a defective tighten button. It felt mushy and would stick pressed down every time it was pressed. The only way to stop the WoWstick from tightening was to press the Loosen button. This only worked as they are one single plastic piece instead of being separate buttons as I would expect them to be from a quality standpoint.• Speed & Torc - I'll keep it short, I can manually tighten and loosen screws faster than the Wowstick can fully charged. Which you will be doing very regularly as the Wowstick's torc is so bad you have to manually loosen each screw for this to even begin working. The same holds true for tightening a screw, you have to self tighten every screw in order for them to be finger tight. Working in an RMA facility for the largest computer manufacturer in the world I can asure you that screws are not tightened enough by the Wowstick. They will come loose with normal use of a Laptop if not made finger tight.• Battery Life - 2 Hours of full time use is terrible and I would appreciate having a proper charger setup so that I could at least use the screwdriver while it is charging.• Micro USB - Having other products that use USB C confuses me as to why the decision was made to use Micro USB. I personally haven't owned a Micro USB cable in years and do not wish to go back.• Included Charger - The included charging cable is extremely short meaning if you wish to charge and use this product at the same time you will have to buy yourself a new charging cable.• Screw Tubes? - Who decided to put screws inside of some plastic tube? How is that considered usable? Pulling the bits holder out of the tube is a pain, finding what you need is a pain, putting bits back is a pain, and the tubes feel incredibly cheap. Seriously, who thought they were changing the wheel? This is horrible. I can't even use my iFixIt bits as they are too short for the WowStick.• Included Case - The included case somehow manages to feel even more cheap than everything else! The plastic feels awful and the two fully separating is pointless and will cause you to spill your tools when opening the case. If you manage to drop the case from a simple foot off the ground (I tested this) it will bust open.• The extra accessories - A random tiny screw jar? A magnitizer, and cheap suction cup. Why even waste the cost? The only thing someone *might* use is the magnitizer.Summary: This product was not made for someone who works in repair. I was hoping that this would be a nice alternative to using the industrial/enterprise electric screwdrivers we have at work as they are larger and corded. I was unfortunately mistaken, this product was made for a hobbyist that has no idea how cheap all of these things really are.

Pros
  • Strong build quality guarantees durability and long-lasting performance
Cons
  • The screwdriver may strip the screw head
