What do you think of this soldering product?

It looks interesting. Like a hotplate on a stick.

I would like to see it under a thermal imager.
The temperature distribution will probably be "interesting".
But maybe it works.

If it is actually solid copper, as they claim, the thermal conductivity will result in it being reasonably even. (I've used big desoldering block tips -- copper blocks with individual wells for every leg of an IC or connector -- to desolder 40-pin (2x20) connectors and various DIP ICs. They're also copper and they heat quite evenly.)

Quite a few variations of these.

I'd guess there is a decent temperature drop to the solid area, then once it gets there should be even, as tooki says. Once it heats up, which will take a minute.
You'll see just as much temperature drop from thin long tips.

Huh? It's the exact opposite situation to a long thin soldering iron tip.

What I'm saying is there could be more of a temperature drop when using a long thin tip compared to this.

Assuming the slip fit or however its connected is decent.
