Maybe but it's pretty powerful and not brushless, I don't think I'd use it on anything delicate.
It has adjustable power settings, so you can place it on the lowest setting. One of the 5 star Amazon reviews mentions specifically using this on game consoles. I also own one, btw.

I also used to use my drill, but when I got a Worx WX242 (almost identical looking to this driver, but a few steps up) it was a night & day game changer.
It was miles more convenient and miles more ergonomic in using it to drive or remove screws (and some nuts/bolts with my nutdriver inserts).
I didn't realize how cumbersome my drill was for most screw-driving jobs until I had my WX242 in my hand. It can also allow convenient driving into tighter spots and is so much quicker to position it on the screw head, as compared to doing it with a drill.
As to user bieberwhole69's comment about his hard pass due to many recent bad reviews, I tend to agree, as imo the quality/longevity of these type of drivers seem to be entirely dependent on the batch of 18650 batteries (it holds only one, soldered) that comes to the manufacturer and many times the batteries are 3/4 dead junk before they're even installed in the tool.
If you're lucky enough to get one that had an acceptable batch of batteries, you won 90% of the battle.
It doesn't have a very long neck. That being said, I used it on my last PC build w/o issue.

I recall this getting top scores from project farms testing a few years back when it was branded under Denali but it looks like you're correct. A LOT of recent reviews complain about charging issues after a few months. Thanks for the heads up, passing as well
