The first impression
Packaging and contents
Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

As part of our practical test of the RFID Blocker card from PURISTO , we were able to comprehensively verify the manufacturer’s advertising promises. A functional test with RFID-enabled cards showed that none of the cards tested could be read as long as the blocker card was present. This shows that the product actually works. In addition, the signal blocking test at various angles showed that the card could not be read at any angle, which indicates perfect signal blocking. The moisture test also confirmed the quality: after exposure to water, the blocker card worked flawlessly and retained its blocking ability. The range test showed that the RFID card could not be successfully read at any of the tested distances under the influence of the Blocker card, indicating that all signals were completely blocked. Finally, the blocker card proved to be versatile and worked in all wallet types tested without any restrictions. Overall, the PURISTO RFID Blocker card fulfils all expectations and offers reliable protection against data theft.

At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €5.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very cheap products are available from as little as €2.99 . The RFID blocker from PURISTO is therefore currently in the middle price segment with a price of €4.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
