Tesla launches Cyberwhistle to mock Apple
Last October, Apple launched its high-end cloth, sold at 25 € on the Apple Store. Elon Musk seems to have found a good way to poke fun at the apple product by launching an accessory of equally dubious utility: the Cyberwhistle. Tesla does not hide his intention since Elon Musk tweeted with humor: ” don’t waste your money on that stupid Apple wipe, buy our whistle instead! “. The Cyberwhistle, which sold for $ 50, nevertheless quickly found buyers as it sold out just hours after launch.

Takao Koyama claims Kid Buu is not the most powerful form of Buu
In Dragon Ball Z, the fights multiply and allow the heroes to gain in power through changes of form. Buu is the character who accumulates the most transformations since he has access to 8 different forms on the screen. Kid Buu, his initial form, is certainly the most uncontrollable and dangerous of all, but it would appear that it is not the most powerful either. The scriptwriter of the anime, Takao Koyama, has indeed claimed that the most powerful version of Kid Buu is the one that absorbed Son Gohan.

Our tests of the week
We love the Huawei Sound Joy bluetooth speaker
Even though the Sound Joy does not reproduce 360-degree sound, Huawei’s speaker offers excellent audio quality, great power and punchy bass, all in a compact size and for a reasonable price. We also greatly appreciated its great autonomy, its total waterproofness and its simplified coupling with another enclosure. While charging isn’t as fast as you might hope, the Sound Joy will be perfect for setting the mood until the end of the night.

The Kindle Paperwhite remains our favorite reader
The new version of the Kingle Paperwhite wowed us once again. With its even larger screen, excellent lighting management and intuitive interface, the Kindle Paperwhite remains the best value for money. The e-reader also offers great autonomy and total waterproofness. However, we were less convinced by the Signature version, which is too expensive compared to the additions. Unfortunately, the Paperwhite remains exclusive to the Amazon bookstore.

Nacon Revolution X Pro: nice advantages but a bit high price
Nacon is launching a new gamepad dedicated to Xbox consoles and Windows 10/11, the Revolution X Pro. Even if we appreciate its ergonomics, its modular weight and the option of customization thanks to the Revolution X software, the controller lacks arguments to justify its price. The quality of the plastic is average and we regret the absence of gum on the joysticks as well as the size and location of the ABXY buttons. The Revolution X Pro remains a good product but deserves some improvements to justify its price of 109.90 euros.
