This has caused a concern for a few potential buyers behind the safety measurements that has to be taken.

Customers Comments, Reviews and Suggestions

Zooming out of the benefits and downside, there has been a few concerns noted by buyers who are interested in the idea.

These speculations were roaming around the need of a strong memory and a processor which, like any cloud, might have extra fees that are not explicitly stated. Such frustrating factors are always a turn off towards any product regardless how perfect it might be.

Furthermore, the type of material used is important as it needs to withstand the daily use of a full house with all the rough events that might happen.

Mirrocool endorses a few of the applications of the mobile phone or a notepad, which might be a point lowering its importance. However, we all reach the point of forgetting to check our calendars daily or being tired to check the weather or the time. Yet, having all these features right next to our image, in a very visible position is the main target that this technology provides.

At the moment, there isn’t any direct competitors to the idea, yet it is expected that all the major companies out there can start a race which will escalate this technology to a whole new level.
