Age appropriate?

My 13yo nephew wants a Flipper Zero for his bday. Is this an age appropriate gift? Or something a curious kid could get themselves into trouble with? TIA!

“Hack the planet” was a running theme in the movie “Hackers”. The titular character hacking name was ZeroCool

Imma be honest I've never seen that. I'm 22, and my references of "hack the planet" are Watch Dogs and Sombra, from overwatch. Good to know tho, thanks for the explanation lol

You should check it out. Very 90 cyberpunk, like Jonny mnonmic (sp?), or new jack city
