They dumped a bunch of the wardrobe mirrors on Woot this month.

$189. At least one buyer wasn't too happy with the 'deal':

We just received our mirror and I gave it to my daughter as a birthday present. Upon opening the box everything appeared to be in good shape. The problems occurred once we tried to install ANY apps. The OS is very buggy and kept ‘thinking’ the mirror was disconnected from the internet. When this happens the mirror can basically only be used to replicate the iphone’s screen.

After several hours of going through resets, moving the mirror to a location where the wifi was ‘excellent’ we were finally able to get the mirror to download google, youtube, spotify, and a few other apps. Success!..not so fast. Even though the apps downloaded they would error out on install. The only app we were able to get to work was Spotify. All the Google apps either failed to install or failed to load. We received an error stating we needed to install Google Play Services, which we downloaded and installed, but the app kept crashing, rendering the mirror’s screen useless because ‘app crashed’ windows kept popping up.

In summary, this is a great idea but the execution is not acceptable for using the tablet…at all. The sheet that provides the instructions (QR code) takes you to a non-existent site and the phone number takes you to a medical device company, making me believe that there likely will be NO online support and no one to talk with if you have issues. Even at $200 for a supposed $1000 smart mirror, it isn’t worth the hassle in my opinion (unless you’re just purchasing it for the phone screen-mirroring).
