Kinda interesting, but I don’t think this is the right community for it

You could also just hit someone’s phone/tablet/PC with a rock.
Can someone please explain to me what’s the point of Flipper Zero? In what way is it capable to do anything Android phones with custom software aren’t?
It’s a toy for people who are interested in hacking/pentesting. Sure, you can do everything it does with a phone, but without the toy like aspects.
Tbh you can do literally everything that a PC can with a phone. Doesn’t mean that a phone is the most fun to use for whatever you’re trying to use it for.
“Sure, you can do everything it does with a phone”
No, you can’t do everything with a phone. A phone doesn’t have the same radios, GPIO for expandability, IR transceiver, etc. Not to mention the radios a phone does have doesn’t like it when you start forcing it to do fun things.
Wait… a cell phone can clone, erase, and reprint an rfid chip?

Can’t burn a CD.
You sure you can’t with the same usb drive you’d need for anything made in the last decade?
With an external USB disk drive you can.
It’s just an SDR with an app store
Light on details, but would be interesting to see what range of devices and OS versions this works against. Should be easy enough to ban devices that are spamming automatically as a counter measure.
Ehhhh it’s flexible enough that I’d bet it can change its “identity” and make it seem like 1000 different devices
There seems to (at least theoretically) whitelist pairing-requests by mac-adress. Randomly hitting those few approved adresses consistently seems fairly unlikely: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/50121103 (how to do it on Samsung, wish I had this option as well)
Yes, but these are requests for new devices to pair
And most people aren’t going to bother with that white list
And even if they did, the attack can be tailored to the white list, because you don’t need to have a real Mac address, it can be spoofed
You should get one and find out. I love mine.
I’m honestly just now hearing of it. Sounds cool, but I feel like I’d only use it once every 6 months just to see if it still works on specific things. Will keep an eye on it.
Yeah, same. I have literally zero use for it outside tinkering, and knowing myself, I’ll play with it for a couple of days, then forget it in a drawer, rinse and repeat every handful of months. It’s just expensive enough that it feels pretty wasteful to do so lol
I mean if you werent into tamagachis and the like, probably.
But its got this dolphin that gets all sad if you dont use it. That alone keeps me playing.
