    The first red light for me, was the part where the ad stated “that for a one time fee, you would get half a year worth of free service.” I then waited for them to further explain the details thereafter; (there was no further information). So, I decided to search the website for information about this product, and happened upon your’s. Thank you for all that you do, in protecting the various viewers who view your site. I am a fan of your content, and am now a subscriber.

      ​@@nenaj1you are correct your phone is listening to you and that does happen a lot. I read in Google's fine print in order to use their service you give them permission to use photos in your gallery that they could use for advertisement and you get no compensation for it. There's so much in the fine print that people don't know if they did Google would go out of business. Just have to get used to there's no such thing as privacy anymore.

    These days, honestly.....don't trust anything online, especially if it sounds too good. What concerns me is that people didn't even think, or realize, that even if it were legitimate, you would still need to add credit to the SIM card for service.

  • @kimberlysuzannemoore
    @kimberlysuzannemoore 21 день тому +3

    Appreciate the video and the review. I couldn’t really understand why everybody was falling for this since all you have to do is get a hotspot on your phone and if you’re lucky like me and have an unlimited data plan, my phone already does the job, better. You double that up with an iPad that also has a hotspot and you’ll pretty much always have a roaming Wi-Fi connection. But I did wanna look into it just because I’m always looking for better speeds and something I can use in my RV as a travel around. Ryoco is NOT it.

Anyone you allow just searches for an internet connection and will see yours.

      Think about it like a separate hotspot for any device you need internet for on the go. So if your phone doesnt have hotspot or if the signal is weak where youre at, this would give you steady internet wherever you are and on any device.... that being said, I think this particular product is a scam. I also think they'll sell all your data, but thats just a thought.

    I can only mimic the many others on here,first it took forever to arrive, it looks like it was packaged by an employee that didn’t give a sh#%t about their job,the unit had sticky stuff like something from a child’s lunch'the usb cord was knotted and even the box was dirty, first thing I noticed was the cheap quality, I knew immediately it was a Chinese knock off , I noticed that I had the original brand muama was and the unit was made of b&w plastic nMaterial,whereas this crap was solid white and only had the name ryoko,typical of Chinese manufacturers,I wrote to them because I knew that no one would answer that number and explained how I wanted to return ,no response to my email, yet constant email begging me to get started, one claimed they’d help me by phone, I mean it’s not that hard, but that SIM card would bring them money ,so I called to record me asking about the return policy,as soon as I said my name I was put on hold then disconnected and when I called again..guess what.. not in service..stay far away,you’ll never get your refund

    I’m looking at purchasing, perhaps I won’t. Allow me to point out however, your phone hot spot will NOT do what this claims to. I have Verizon, my hot spot throttles way back at 30 gigs. Secondly, to activate my hot spot or phone in a foreign country costs $100 per line. IF this device were to work, it would definitely be a worthwhile purchase for an international traveler.

    I appreciate the review but how can you do an honest review without actually trying the device? That’s as disingenuous as some of the sites selling this fraudulently. This isn’t a review of the product, it’s a critique of the places you featured who are selling it. How about grabbing one & giving your viewer an actual review rather than opining about the sites selling one.

I pulled rechargable battery and tossed the rest to e waste depot after disabling sim card slot. So no one will reuse it. 145 bucks loss in canada.
