Pros & Cons

Pros

Se usa una para todos los productos sphero. It’s human interaction mode is awesome, the controls are easy, and the emotes are authentic to the movie. Interactions (droid to droid interactions) seems to work well.

Just like having your own miniature r2-d2. Dogs seem to like it. Nephews love this r2. Awesome upgrade after 40 years of owning the original 70s r2 remote toy.



Cons

The right side track/tread quit functioning after 5 minutes of use. The legs move on rotating rubber bands which in itself is a huge flaw. Wheels pick up hair and can't be removed to clean. Flimsy and magnet for hair.

If someone gets you this as a gift, politely ask then to return it as their money will be wasted. Yup, this one is getting sent back. I call the tech support and they said that it is defected.

    You can use two apps to play with the robot but when you are programming one motor moves slower than the other even if you use the same speed that only happens on the edu app so it is weird but you can work around it
