She’s combining it with a badly-worn (note the gaps along her glasses) N95-mask. Which is just exposing yourself to pollution with extra steps.

This video is silly.

The app says it’s filtering, and the device is. But she’s not wearing her respirator properly so she smells smoke.

And since she’s wearing it improperly (and was probably not fit tested) the mask isn’t accomplishing what she wants.

This is basically a video that says “I can afford a Dyson zone and have no idea what I’m doing.”

This is Verge, one of the job requirements is complete cluelessness about the subject matter. Here is them doing a PC build tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lmfF0k2UcU

There is not seal on the Dyson device. It is impossible to "wear it properly" in a way that prevents non-filtered air from getting into your lungs.
