This is 100% a meme. There's a kettle in the lower left corner of the picture, place awkwardly in front of the second frier drawer. and the cup would be scaldingly hot upon removing it from the air frier.

10 minutes to boil a cup of water? How is that considered good in any way?
it's sarcasm.
Air fryers suck at boiling water. They're basically anti-microwaves. Everything a microwave is good at, they suck at, and vice versa.
Air fryers are for putting a crust on things. Basicly a miniature convection oven

Thats why I got a Convection Microwave. Best of both worlds!
I put microwavable things in my microwave halfway, then in my air fryer to finish.
Perfect for little pot pies. Gets the top crispy.
How do you close the door and start it if you only put the food in halfway?

Me using a hardware store heat gun:
Pathetic
I just bought a new graphics card.
Place the teacup next to the PC exhaust, and let er rip.
y'all don't stick your soldeing iron inside the cup?
The flux residues give it that exta taste
Americans will do anything other than buy an electric kettle.
I've heard electric kettles are slower here because of the limits of our electrical system. I do have a kettle for the stove, though. I also rarely drink tea.

There's literally the handle of an electric kettle on the left side.
No this is something far worse: someone in the UK whom has strayed from the light and committed heresy!
May the Tea Gods have mercy upon them, for I shall have none!
Americans who drink hot tea have them (source: have had one for like 20 years).
Americans in general are just more hot coffee cold tea people. Exceptions abound of course, but in generalities.

OOP uses centigrade and spells color as "colour"; they're probably not American.

Implying Americans know what the metric system is.
There is literally a kettle on the left lower side of the image (likely deliberately as it seems awkward having it in front of the air fryer like that)
in my experience, it is quite hard to find a place for a kettle that isn’t at least a little awkward

Boiling a mug of water by blowing hot air on it is going to take a while. My guess is if someone was to try this (which I don't recommend) it's going to take longer than 10-12 minutes.
Okay this is a shitpost, but ffs don't try this. That's a small electric fan-forced oven. There's a nonzero chance the airflow will splash water all over the inside, which is absolutely not liquid proof. Water + electricity == bad.
Are you sure about the waterproofing? You can usually steam in an oven.
Got an air fryer here with a steamer mode, so that definitely doesn't have moisture-sensitive electronics inside the cooking part!

I see your point. But how the hell is the mug not going to be hot either and you are able to just lift it out?
I mean that's true too, assuming you don't destroy your air fryer first.
Magic machine goes bum bum

Pretty sure that counts as a hate crime against the English
I played a game online with a British person and another American. British guy was talking about tea time or something tea related. I have always heard that the British took their tea VERY seriously, so I decided to test it. I asked him if he heated his water in a microwave. Don't ask the British if they heat their water in a microwave. What followed was a man who was very passionate about tea talk just as passionately about his kettle.
Microwave for water?! I am going to spontaneously combust with rage, and you can use the heat to boil the water for your tea properly! 😡🥵🔥☕👍🏽 🇬🇧

Brb buying an air fryer
Good, they deserve it.
Oh using stuff not rated for those conditions could be an easy way to end up with glass in your eyes.
"Do you have any visual impairments?"
"Yes, I have glass."
"You mean glasses?"
"Well, actually..."
Somebody had been considering what could be worse than microwave tea.
There's nothing wrong with microwaving water. It's all just getting water molecules to move faster.
microwaving anything is microwaving the water it contains
I've seen microwave tea as putting the tea bag in the cup and then microwaving it, which is slightly not ideal imo, but to each their own
That is probably for safety. If you microwave water without anything for it to nucleate on, then it can be liquid above the boiling point. If you then put a tea bag in, it will explode into steam in your face.

Bad idea if there is a staple in the tag on the tea bag.
But really is just boiling water. Heat is heat.
Thats how I make my teas. Boil it in a glass measuring cup, then pour it into a mug with the tea.
TechnologyConnections made a video about it.

"The downside is that the mug is also 180°C now."
"And it tastes faintly of the bacon I made for breakfast."
Nah see they've got one of those fancy dual air dryers in the picture. One side is clearly for food and the other for beverages.
Yeah but you're not supposed to put the cup in with it. You pull the tray out and pour it into one.
