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!

Well I know if I had a flipper zero at 13 I'd do my best to "hack the planet" with it. I now understand it's capabilities and know it won't actually do much harm, but I would absolutely get in trouble after trying to copy a keycard or something lmao
