This version has some improvements over past models but comes with some negatives as well. The gimmick in the first version was basically universal for iPhone and Android phones. With the change in technology now each phone requires its own. This can be challenging in performance because you have to know what phone the Spec is using prior to performing the trick. The gimmicks are not interchangeable hence the need to use the correct one for each type of phone. One plus with this version is the ability to flip the phone over while it is being balanced. This is a real fooler especially for people thinking you are using "magnets" or "adhesive" to make it work. You may have to modify the stock gimmick slightly to pull off this move unless you have thin fingers.
The biggest problem I have with this version is cost and execution. I feel the cost is very high considering what you actually receive for gimmicks. You should receive several of each type for the cost. They are very easy to loose.
I feel the execution is more difficult on this model. Actually attaching the gimmick to the phone seems more cumbersome with this version. The biggest problem I have is with CASES. Everybody has one. Who uses a phone without one? Nobody! Getting the gimmick to attach to the phone with a thick case can be problematic especially with the Android phones since the gimmick doesn't "lock" on like the iPhone does.
To eliminate many of the issues that I have raised here, use your own phone for the demo and start with the gimmick attached. Do the nice moves, Turn hand palm side down at end as you hand phone to audience to be checked giving you the perfect opportunity to clean up. Way less risky with nearly the same result as borrowing a phone. Hope this helps. Now go entertain someone.

Cons : the gimmicks are very small and the included shipping box is 3rd rate.....so easy to lose the gimmicks

This product will NOT work with ANY iPhone model earlier than an iPhone 7.....no 6 no 5 no 6s. This should have been divulged in the description. (I do not own an Android phone, so I have no comments on that platform. ) So while the presentation is much better using a borrowed iPhone, be careful what you ask for.

PROS: Nick does his usual great job explaining the trick, the variances and the maintenance. Oh yeah, you may need some.

As Nick said, this is not an effect that will shock people with amazement. I think it is better suited for incorporation into other iPhone tricks, which is another reason to do it with your own iPhone and not run the risk of problems with borrowed phones.

Wow you must have been using a fake ipad for the demo cause the weight of an ipad makes the gimmick cut into your finger and is painfull to hold and leaves a mark and CAN be easily seen from underneath...no way is worth the money and is risky to use any phone or ipad due to the weight would possibly cause the phone/ipad to fall and break....

I really like the look of this and finally got it today.
Now in the video, Nick shows how to replace the gimmick. He does that around a bottle neck.
My gimmicks out of the box are 10mm across. They don’t even fit my little finger. This may well be a small thing but rather than go and play or practice, I now need to get a roll of hundreds of meters off line to use 3 inches of it.
A bit more thought could have gone into how wide you do the loop…

This is OK but it is not magical as a "trick". Wrapping it into a routine might add some mystery.

The gimmick is clever enough, but difficult to use if the phone has a case on it.

Works sometimes very undependible

Gimmick fell apart on second use. Yes I can fix it but requires me to go and buy a product. Too hard to use the existing bit. Too nervous now to contemplate doing this with a borrowed phone. Using an iPhone is harder to use than Android due to the way the gimmick attaches. This will probably will go to the back of my magic draw sadly.

I had the original version of this and i thought it was perfect but boy i was wrong i have been playing with the plus version for about a year now and it will blow your sucks off is that good so good im getting another one just incase i lose one. DONT MISS OUT

I received the product and the Gimmick doesn't FIT my finger.

I need to fix this. Assistance would be helpful please.

Thank you.

Otherwise, it's a great trick

I found this product underwhelming. The reactions received were fun, but nothing magical. To some people, it appeared to be more than a puzzle to figure our than a magic effect.

Buy if only on sale.
