'70s/'80s: Tamagotchi—virtual pet. Younger: Flipper Zero—ethical hacking device by Alex Kulagin and Pavel Zhovner.
If you were born in the '70s or '80s, the word "Tamagotchi" likely brings back fond memories of a virtual pet you carried on a keychain. These beloved pocket-sized companions were a source of joy and responsibility for many. But now, a new generation of tech enthusiasts is finding excitement in a different kind of handheld device—one that draws inspiration from Tamagotchi but takes things to a whole new level.
Don't be fooled by Flipper Zero's compact exterior—it houses impressive power under the hood. With 256 Kb of RAM, 1 MB of Flash storage, and a dual-core processor, this unassuming device punches well above its weight. Since its launch in August 2020, users have been uncovering its versatility and ingenuity.
In April 2023, Flipper Zero faced a significant hurdle when Amazon banned its sales, categorizing it as a "card skimming device." This move brought even more attention to the device, as discussions about its ethical implications intensified.
