The NAVEE V50 is a budget commuter scooter with a unique handlebar folding mechanism Jimmy and Andrew have never seen before — the handlebars rotate and lock directly into the steering pole, creating a slim, rigid folded profile. Beyond that standout feature, the V50 delivers disc brakes, a sharp landscape display, IP55 water resistance, and a hidden AirTag slot. The criticism list is short but honest: the display scratches easily, the app is a repurposed smart home platform that feels out of place, and the tubed tires are more flat-prone than tubeless alternatives. For budget-conscious commuters who want the most portable, weather-ready scooter in the category, the V50 is well worth a look.

The Rion Apex is the pinnacle of electric scooters that boasts unmatched craftsmanship, performance, and cutting-edge features like dual Tronic VESC controllers, PMT tires, and a proprietary throttle. Handcrafted in the USA, it delivers an ultra-smooth, high-speed ride but comes with a hefty price and long wait time. For serious riders, it’s worth every penny.
