Flipper Zero: Unboxing, in-depth demos, and initial impressions/brief review 

Oh. I feel sad for getting rid of my implants a few years ago. They were neodymium magnets and starting to break up. Installed in 2012 and removed around 2016. Not a bad run.

@@destoo0 there's some better options now! For lifting magnets, dangerous Things sells the xG3, which is glass encapsulated. For a combination of sensing and lifting, they have the Titan which is encased in laser-welded titanium. Both are super durable and have lifetime warranties. Highly recommended if you feel like replacing your magnets.

@@LevisLabOfficial what exactly are they used for except to save the hotel card on them?

@@derpissi I use mine to unlock my PC, store my contact info (can tap it on people's phones to give them my contact info), unlock my safe, etc. I also store a link to my website on one of my implants, with my resume. When I'm at conferences, I can just have people tap my implant, and it'll automatically open it on their phone. At one point, I used mine as my key to start my car, thanks to a custom ignition board I created.

Imagine once we all really dig in a learn how to modify the code to allow us to execute actions via nfc.

@@kellyc2425 not much… I have 2 implants from dangerous things. I can start car open doors unlock computer…but after having fro about 3 years now… it’s not worth it an I never use them.

Seems incredibly dumb, pointless, and risky.

@@rlab1504 straight up bro

how long did it take ?

@@ven._._.6 days

Is it worth it, could I turn off the TV at school?

cloning nfc credit cards?

@@acidreign0911 I believe @nothing was referring to the RFID modules implanted in his left and right hands, not the FlipperZero itself.

@@KirwinWebb but I can't help but wonder if the flipper could clone credit cards

​@@acidreign0911 7:44

@@acidreign0911 it can get the card number/expiration date but it can't use them at a touch-to-pay terminal generally. they do additional security checks that the flipper can't emulate

If I cared more about that particular safe, sure. I did it as a quick conversion, to hold a few non-essential items in my dorm (spare keys, gift cards, lockpicks, etc). Not national secrets. Given how low-security UID-only RFID already is, it doesn't really matter. Security through obfuscation is a valid approach when you're just trying to defend from guests snooping or the occasional kleptomaniac. If someone wanted to target me, there's bigger things to worry about.

You see him once a while on the internet tho. Hm... Domo fanart... 🤔

@@repeekyraidcero what website?

where do you buy them? and the price

To store your super smash bros amiibo duh 🙄

Hey can you tell me where you bought it because the official link I can't make the purchase from there you bought it can you tell me what happened to the site send me the link please?

@@anthony_201 its open now i just ordered one an hour ago

Where do I get

@@minibikedude222 oh thank you

Where did you buy it from?

Your work?

​@@1fast72nova w see yī

@@josephk5523 do what

Thanks Hector, appreciate it regardless! Hope you have a lovely day.

Thanks for watching!

Hypothetically? yes. though you have to know where the capsule is with some precision. NFC is meant not to work over any real distance so it's not like they could do it from across the room, but the risk is there. I might use it as a single factor in MFA, though. Chip, code, AND card wouldn't be bad for something higher security.

@@DFX2KX most of the time it's in a spot between the thumb and pointer finger tho so there's a a chance the guess the right spot

@@HardTimev1 yeah, the fact that there is a pretty common location for those tags DOES increase the chance of having your credentials lifted.

With updates, the flipper will become (and already is) one of the best tools to carry. However, it can't do everything, and there's a lot of low level functionality it's missing. It's a bit like a Swiss army knife. It can do a lot, but if you need to make delicate cuts, you need an X-ACTO knife, not a pocket knife 😉 For RFID, both 13.56MHz and 125KHz, you can't do better than a Proxmark 3. A PM3 Easy is pretty affordable, and it's the ultimate RFID tool. Generally needs a separate computer to do anything, but there is an android app that has limited functionality. For radio, an RTL-SDR is a cheap introduction, but it's only a receiver, no transmit capabilities. A HackRF is an excellent excellent tool, it can transmit at low power. I love mine, but it's very pricy. Once the flipper is readily available, it'll definitely be a fantastic option for an introductory device.

@@LevisLabOfficial Awesome! thanks so much for answering this question. I'm basically done with my degree and I want to keep learning more and more and connecting with people who share the same interest. I will FOR SURE buy a flipper when it comes out but I will also check out the HackRF as well. I think if you like it that much, I'm sure I will as well haha.

@@LevisLabOfficial would love to see a demo on the hackrf,and what you (could) use it for ;)

then we try to shim your door, if not then we bump your lock, if that doesn't work we pick your lock, its because of these devices that stops companies from being sloppy with security in their locks, devices etc

Amazon periodically

Yes, but you need to hold it next to one of the original 1993 cd ROMs so it can pick up the game files

Sorry, when I made this video, unleashed didn't exist! I've been meaning to make a new tutorial, I'll try and get it out soon!

Sadly, the analyzer function requires it to be very close to the Flipper, almost touching it. The two best things for that purpose would be either an RTL-SDR + laptop, or on the higher end of price, a HackRF with a PortaPack.

I have been drive by prank parked Tesla owners for days now….😂 especially their charging ports.

nvm lol I went to your description and found out :)

Thought I'd still pop in and answer a bit 😃 I got mine from Dangerous Things as you saw, and had them put in by a local piercer in Indiana. DT has a map on their site of partnered piercers, and they have a guide to contacting a professional if there's no partners nearby. I'm a computer science student, coming to the end of my third year. I do a lot of hardware hacking projects on my own, which I enjoy a ton. I've been super busy lately, but my next video will likely be taking about and demonstrating my implants ☺️ Let me know if you have any more questions!

@@LevisLabOfficial Thanks for the reply :) that's awesome what you built and programmed for the water usage. I love computer science. I'm in my last quarter for my BA in network security but really love programming and hacking projects. I was trying to find if they had the Flipper for sale on Dangerousthings but I didn't see it. Oh wow so they just pop it right in there with a lil needle and then it's in, I wonder if it ever bothers you?

There weren't any for sale at the time anywhere haha. When this video was uploaded, I was one of the first customers in the US to receive their Flipper Zero. Didn't get very popular for a while after. Thankfully a few years later and I haven't had any issues. I put mine in a little cloth bag when I'm not using it, and have a 3D printed case on it.

@@LevisLabOfficial Sweet, glad to hear!

I really like the DEFCON talks by Deviant Ollam. They're entertaining, with a lot of info. I would just go through and watch popular talks from DEFCON, ShakaCon, Wild West Hacking fest, and more! Something helpful as well is while watching them, if you hear a term or concept you don't understand, look it up at the same time. The Wikipedia pages can be especially helpful. It's not dumb at all haha, it can be really hard to figure out where to start. My email is on my channel, feel free to email me if you have more questions!

Great review btw!

Are you still bricked? I would suggest you post on the dangerousthings forum, lots of support there.

Don't need anything too big at all. 16GB would be fine, or maybe even smaller, as long as it supports SPI mode. I've had good luck with Samsung SD cards. I think I have a 64GB in mine right now, but that's purely b/c it's all I had lying around.
