TORRASCOOLIFY Cyber Alpha Thermochromic Limited Edition Neck Air Conditioner, Blue-Orange Changing Portable Neck Fan Rechargeable, Ultimate Immersive Cooling, AI Temp Control Personal Fan As Gifts

Outstanding features. The cold setting gets cold, and the warm setting gets warm. Keep in mind that this is a portable unit but delivers high quality. The storage case is sleek and durable. The fan provides powerful air flow. The design of the unit is comfortable, but it is a little on the heavy side for longer wear times. Not too much of a compromise. Overall, it's a good value if you have a sensitivity to the heat. I would purchase again.

I tried the deluxe limited edition stainless steel "thermochromic" model. It's sturdy and well made, and the design looks great. However, it's not without its share of pros and cons.PROSIt gets very cold/heats up fast and the customizable airflow when set to max is quite strong (but see cons, below, because the range at which it is effective at cooling is rather narrow).The free app is fast and easy, with a super clean, attractive, and idiot-proof animated interface. It allows you to turn the device on/off and customize the air flow strength as well as which vent configuration you want to use (all, neck, left, or right, in whatever combination desired). You can switch between cold, hot, or only air. It tracks your battery life down to the last percentage point, as well as with a wheel symbol. In short, you need this app! It's a joy to use.You can use the Coolify Cyber while it is charging, which is great! Unfortunately, due to the underside placement of the charging port, the cable's connector uncomfortably rubs against your collar bone. Somebody should have thought this placement through a little better.CONSThe cold pack part (in the back of the neck) is only effective up to maybe 85-90 degrees and works much better indoors than outdoors. Once the temperature starts to get higher, all you're going to feel is hot air from the vents. I was able to test my unit outdoors and indoors during 75-98 degree summer weather, but no comparable test for how the heat function does in winter.I did briefly test the heat function on a cooler summer day, and it seems fine, but I can't guarantee how well it would perform in winter.This is not a replacement for an indoor AC, but it does allow you to be mobile, which is nice.The recessed controls are impossible to find/work while it's being worn. This is an inconvenience more than a problem as long as you have the Coolify app installed and your phone handy.The built in fan controls are a bit counterintuitive, but you can use the app to avoid them.The Cyber is a little bit heavier and tighter than cheaper plastic neck fans, but not uncomfortably so. However, if you have an especially thick or wide neck, it might hug you too tightly. It has a limited hinged design to accommodate different neck sizes, but it's much less forgiving than cheaper bendable neck fans. I hear the cheaper Coolify models don't have the same problem.The battery life on max air with the cold function burns up about +/-1% a minute. I did not let it drain to zero to see exactly how minutes it gives on max or any other setting. I also did not do any battery life tests with the heat function.The loudness factor is also a bit much when it is on full blast. The noise when setting it on low is fine and not too bad on medium.The thermochromic bonus feature (available in the deluxe stainless steel limited edition only) adds zero value as it changes color rarely and only on the inside of the band where no one will see it.OVERALLThe Coolify Cyber is a cool idea (pardon the pun) but overpriced for what it does. I say this primarily because of its limited effectiveness in higher temperatures, and that it's better for indoor home or office use than going outside. If you're only dealing with temperatures in the mid-70s to mid-80s and intend to use the device mostly indoors without AC, you might love it.While I chose to return my Cyber, I do like the direction where Torras is taking their Coolify line. I'm sure they'll continue to keep iterating newer, better, and more powerful versions. Hopefully, someday the features match the price.UPDATE (August 12, 2024): Torras provided excellent after-sales service. They contacted me and made sure my refund was processed quickly and smoothly. They also told me their after-sales service doesn't just apply to refunds, but for any help customers might need. So don't be afraid to contact them, and don't be afraid to take a chance on trying their products. I'm glad I did, and would definitely buy from them again.

Amazing A/C neck fan! Feels like an ice pack on your neck! Well built, great features, and beautiful design. Just plan on using a power bank for all day use.

Stopped working in just under a year, wishing I had a refund now even though it's been so long. Just gives me this "E2" code with a yellowish green background, fans won't operate, and heating and cooling no longer works.

I have Coolify 2. Still running great after 2 years. Coolify Cyber is offering many step-up features from Coolify 2.Great to see these new features:With 3 large cold plates, the unit covered more area. Provide faster and constant cooling effect.Added additional wind tunnels for improved heat dissipation in different areas.Larger battery capacity, faster charging speed, and charging with unit running are great for longer usage time.The product has a good weight. Solid build. Easy to use. Linked up to Bluetooth quickly and easily. The app is easy to use. Provided different options for customizing to fit my need. Auto mode is great. Set it and forget it.

My neck fan stopped holding a charge soon after purchased, since it was after day 30 I went through warranty.Abby and then Bill provided clear instructions to diagnose and hopefully fix issue, after this steps didn't fix issue bill promptly sent me a replacement unit.As much as we wish for electronics to all be perfect some will have defects, after sales support is the last line of defense for the customer. Good job Torras, you have a loyal customer and a brand advocate in me!

I was initially skeptical about buying this device because I needed something that could provide adequate cooling outdoors for some planned trips this summer. However, after trying another device from the same brand (the Coolify IVA fan) that didn’t live up to its name, I decided to give this one a chance.The cooling function is great indoors, and the fact that it also has a heating function makes this product a more worthwhile investment since it can be used year-round. However, once again, it fails in its cooling performance outdoors when temperatures reach above 80 degrees. Unfortunately, this device was no match for the blistering heat of Texas. A bit of a let down as the first product I tried had the same fate and I liked how the fan was very compact versus this which is big and bulky and the case it comes with further adds to the bulk of the product but thought that would be a sacrifice I’d be willing to take for better cooling performance, not the case.Additionally, the description fails to mention that this is a 2024 model, and I didn’t realize that until I purchased it and contacted the manufacturer for clarification. They informed me that the new 2025 model has better cooling performance and is more comfortable to wear but I’m hesitant to buy that model for now.One more thing to consider is that they don’t advertise this device as having any type of sweat or water resistance, which is a bit of a drawback considering its intended use and price.

Disappointed that it didn’t work for me so I returned it
