Some things to note from someone who's actually used it, unlike all these armchair experts:
The accuracy is spot on and verified against a Fowler angle finder, which has hundredth degree precision.
Having purchased it recently, I'm not sure where the disparity in the recent reviews is coming from, other than receiving a unit with crappy/old batteries. This is nothing new for Klein tools. Their batteries always suck and shouldn't be used.
So, the good news is that the tool works and is accurate, especially if you put in fresh batteries.
With that said, it's not without a few downsides:
The tilt on the Z axis is very touchy before it will display an error. You have to keep the display nearly perfectly vertical to keep it happy.
The LCD display is dated technology, so trying to view it at an angle or with polarized sunglasses is difficult. This is made more frustrating by the Z axis tilt issue, as you can't just position it differently to correct for the LCD's shortcomings.
The only magnet is on the bottom. This is understandable in terms of not affecting the accuracy, but inconvenient in practice (if the LCD could do 90 degree rotation, this wouldn't be an issue). You can add an L-bracket with magnets and use the relative angle function to get around this, but it's definitely less convenient than the Fowler, which has magnets on 3 sides.
The v-groove can be frustrating if you're just looking to stick it on something that's thinner than the groove. It causes the unit to tilt and throw an error. I added a plate to the bottom to make it flat.
Lastly, the durability on the plastic that covers the LCD is questionable. It scratches just from taking the unit out of the case and it's soft enough that it can probably be punctured fairly easily.
You might be technically right in that any phone with a tilt sensor can provide fairly accurate measurements, but suggesting it can replace a dedicated tool is utter nonsense.
Nobody is pulling out their expensive phone in place of this, especially if their job requires tenth of a degree precision.

A lot of comments about units not being accurate, or off after a couple months of use....BYMMV. I think I'll wait for the better newer unit, or an igaging cube.
This is also the clearance price at HD, if you can find one. I turned it down on Wednesday, because it's not the 75-80% off that the other tools have been...at least not yet.

It looks like the older reviews are pretty good, but recent reviews are not great. That's a shame because I've been wanting to upgrade to a digital angle gauge and this seems like a good price.

Despite all this, the tool does the job.
