5 Odd Gadgets from AliExpress Under $3

To stop the phone from sliding, you have to "wet" the suction cup a little. What do you expect? It's made in C...

With the elastic bookmarker, you're supposed to point the finger at where you stopped reading, either on the left or right page. That's the only "advantage" of this holder.

My thought with the phone holder was what happens when you crash? Your airbags are going to deploy and the phone is going to fly right into your face. I’ve been a firefighter medic for 24 years.

James, I just bought the Steering Wheel Phone Holder after seeing you use it for $3.97 on Amazon. This is something I can really use because I listen to audiobooks on my phone when I drive and I'm frequently checking the phone which I place on the passenger seat and taking my eyes off the road. I've been pretty stupid and once I almost hit another car doing this so having the phone on the steering wheel will be a lot more effective and safe. I already have a phone holder/charger on my dash and I use that with a second phone for navigation so there's no more room near me on the dash, in case you were wondering.

Regarding the phone holder, Google maps shows your speed on your phone as well as the speed limit. The book mark- maybe it has 2 cords on one side to shorten it (by spreading them out across the top or bottom of the page) to help it fit a small book?

The hanger thing can be replaced by a pop top

The thumb book thing very handy for those people who can't bend their thumbs.

Ok

Dude, do you own a book past the 90s? Lmao. just messing with ya. I highly recommend American Muckraker by James O'Keefe or Laptop From Hell by Miranda Devine.

For the bookmark, I'm guessing the two straps is for smaller books? You can spread the straps to make the bookmark shorter

My Android phone shows the posted speed limit and the speed you're driving when using GPS.

I used to check that Book of Lists out of my elementary school library for like weeks at a time,it was probably 1987, I still love lists.

Hmm.... Jim Morrison, Tommy Lee, Hair Metal Bands and Peter Frampton! I've learned more about you on personal level on a video where everything costs less than $3! Also I wasn't familiar with Aliexpress until now!!
The hanger extender was developed by Joy Mongano (who also developed the original velvet hangers) and you can buy a package of them for $6. The one with one hooks then can hang down and extend your closet space.
**I want to start or join the Bailey fan club!**

I Love These Videos 😄😍

I like how you make no mention of how long it took for the items to arrive, other than that I have enjoyed the random and mostly nonsensical items I found on AliExpress.

Noah is really cute and you have an AWESOME 🐕, hugs, cuddles, bones and Xmas treats for Bailey
Merry Xmas to u and your family, stay safe, stay well, stay sane? Mask up, sanitise, vaccinate, and may (hopefully) 2022 be a MUCH better year than the last 2
From NZ

I can't help wondering if the sucker phone holder, would hold better if the suckers were dampened?

In regards to the steering wheel ph holder, if you were caught using it in NZ, you would cop a HUGE fine!!

Holy Clones, Batman....
Peter Frampton looks just like YOU!

Seriously, that's uncanny!

The phone holder looks like it'd work better on a bike around the handle bars.

Huh. Who’d a thunk the one thing I took away positively from this was the hanger hanger? Perfect for keeping staple outfits together! And without the staples!

THE WHOLE THING IS DO NOT DRIVE AND USE YOUR PHONE SIMULTANEOUSLY PEOPLE!! 😒 then these dip shits go and invent the very thing at a very reasonable price so its more tempting!!!! If I was a police office..absolutely you would be pulled over as soon as I saw the light in your face and handed you a ticket....also I'd hope you would then copy and send the ticket and price to the people who invented the shitty in the first place... we all know better..smh

Great job man... saved me $20 that I don't have a single mother who thought it was a magic tape that is easier than a drill and screws. (Dry wall is only screw worthy) 🙄 but thanks man. I subscribed and also would like to see some more people from your family assisting in future videos. Share the spotlight sometimes man ✌🏻 ☮ ❤ happiness 😊

That pointing bookmark is kinda stupid really. I've always used just a short bookmark and when I need to keep track of where I am on a page I just turn it sideways.

Im gonna guess.
The suction phone holder was designed for phones without a glass back

The hook extender will work great when packing a garment bag.

Book darts are way nicer than the silicone finger pointing strap, they hold your page and exact sentence you were in without being annoying like this

Love AliExpress… most stuff from there is just junk anyway. I always order my electronic components from there mostly

Im pretty sure the phone holder is for when you want to eat in the car and watch smthing, had been looking for smthing like these the past years, wouldve loved it when taking my lunch at work. Would've paid 10 bucks for it

The steering wheel one is so dangerous ppl would watch shows and get distracted or text and drive

I like your reviews.
Some input I want to have is that the Thumb Thing is for certain readers who read paperbacks and mass markets a lot. Which can fatigue your fingers or thumb. If you haven't run into that yet, then you probably wouldn't benefit from it. I personally hold my books with one hand often, so I enjoy the novelty of them, but maybe it's like 50/50 on if you like them or not. Like, you either love them or you find them unhelpful. As far as a bookmark, I prefer a paper or ribbon bookmark still.
The steering wheel gadget looks great if you're a traveling contractor, and you take lunch in your car and want to watch shows while on lunch. I know that seems very niche, but I feel a lot of people could enjoy it. A lot of people take break in their trucks/cars, such as electricians, plumbers, welders, general contractors, window repair persons, painters, college students, travelers on road trips, landscape photographers, etc. Just depends on the person and company. So it is also one of those things that could be useful to some. I don't see it being useful while driving, if that's how it's advertised. But as a breaktime convenience, I can see it. Especially if you don't want to mount something on your dashboard or glass for some reason. Plus it seems quite small, so easy to store.

A rubber band works great for Hardback books!

Phone backs are usually quite greasy - a huge enemy of suction cups. No wonder this gadget attached firmly to the table (probably clean and non-greasy) and much less to the phone (where even gravity works against the suction cups).

Let's hope you don't get in an accident while using the phone holder. You might end up with a face full of phone when the airbag goes off

I bet he threw away the thumb page holder as soon as he finished filming this video🤣🤣🤣

Have you done an April fools show all about hair accessories? 😆

Is the blue finger book mark possibly supposed to be used to point to the sentence or paragraph you left off in the book?
I also bought the sucker stand from wish, first day I tried to use it at work, the round things fell off and my phone fell on the ground and cracked my screen protector 😕

Steel Panther!

LOOOOL you looked good in 1985! I was 6...

PETER FRAMPTON AGAIN!

gotta defend the hanger extender just because you live in Vegas, you only need thin clothes, but where I live, a shirt over your T-shirt or a thin jacket is a mandatory third piece on your hanger :P

You didn’t just have hair you had Frampton hair😲WHAT?

I see a thumbthing... I used to use one to read books while standing on the subway

That steering wheel phone holder is a death trap if the airbag deploys so it's a really dumb ideA

Where do u live?reminds me of vegas

The real world test for the thumb book holder isn't sitting on the couch, it's on crowded public transit holding on to a pole with your other hand.

theres no way that picture wasn’t just a pic of peter frampton

these are not things normal people would buy from Aliexpress....problem is, aliexpress also has the same silicone bookmark for 1/10 the price of those listed on amazon. So the comparison between aliexpress and amazon about the bookmarks is meaningless and unfair.
Tbh, I think your other videos are much more informative and useful than this one. In this video you just chose extremely cheap products that are neither funny nor useful, even from the look of it. On the other hand, there are lots of stuff on aliexpress that is not only much cheaper than amazon, but also creative and with moderately good quality.
