Review on 🏋️ Optimized Fitness Smart Hydro Flask and Phone Holder by Jeff Figueroa

There's so much wrong with so little right that it's hard to know where to start, but narrowing it down to the most egregious leaking water bottle problem, the uncovers the phone for possible damage. No special cover/seal was provided in the design to secure the phone. Capping a standard disposable water bottle is more secure than capping this bottle. In fact, the entire bottle just isn't of the quality I would expect from a refillable device like this. And as a small but important issue, the smell of the plastic that makes up the bottle is incredibly disgusting. The chemical smell is so strong that every survival instinct tells me not to drink from the bottle, so I won't. Washing the bottle didn't help get rid of the smell. There are also other problems, such as B. a thick transparent window that makes using the touchscreen awkward and a rather poorly placed hole for the headphone jack, but it's particularly difficult not to notice the discrepancy between the picture of the holder on the product page and the one I sent . I have no idea what happened between the device pictured (prototype?) and the end result, but the design and materials used on the picture definitely look better than the actual holder. For example, the part holding the phone appears to be at least partially detached from the bottle, which would offer slightly better protection from a leaking bottle, although it's not clear if it's adequately insulating against water droplets. The area around the top of the bottle appears to be vinyl in the image, providing extra drip protection. In contrast, the mount I received has no protective vinyl and the phone fits into the slot directly opposite the water bottle without separation. Both of these design changes make a leaking bottle potentially more of a problem. While I like the holder idea, the design needs an overhaul.
