In this video I’m putting the Sony Reon Pocket Pro through a very real-world test: Singapore heat, on-camera, with zero chance of hiding the sweat. This is Sony’s wearable cooling (and warming) device that sits on your back/neck area, and the big question I wanted to answer is simple—does it actually feel like relief, or is it just another gimmick that sounds cooler than it performs? I walk through what it is, how it’s meant to be worn, and what it’s like to live with while I’m moving around. I’m also comparing the whole experience against the thing most of us already use here: a portable fan. The takeaway is that wearable cooling is a different kind of comfort—more discreet and “set it and forget it” than blasting air at your face—but it also comes with its own trade-offs. If you’ve been eyeing the Reon Pocket Pro and wondering whether it’s worth it for commuting, travel, or just surviving humid days, I break down who I think it makes sense for, and who should probably just stick to a fan (or aircon).
