If the product is so fundamentally flawed in his mind, then why even bother with it? If you as a reviewer can’t even give a proper opinion and spend an other 500 dollars on it, to give your audience a good review.

For fun. For entertainment. That is the point of the video. He wasn't making that video "as a reviewer" he was making it as an entertainer.

    “It’s a bad product. It’s bad because it makes absolutely no sense and nobody should buy it”

    Well then he shouldn’t have given a buyers recommendation. Some of Linus video’s don’t make any sense, like everyone can install a swimming pool at the back of their PC? Those balls to the walls videos are still the most fun to watch, as it’s original content, and maybe something they should stick to more often.

    But don’t give a buyer recommendation about a small company, if the testing is done in a bad way.
