    I really like the BB-8 droid. The app however is very slow to load and you have to synch with BB-8 every time you start the app up. The built-in commands are also very basic.

    Purchased for my 8 year old son for Christmas. This is a really cool little toy. My son has had no issue operating it. Just need a phone or tablet with Bluetooth operation.

    My husband is a huge Satr Wars fan. He loved this character when we saw the movie. He was giddy happy when he got one of his own for the holidays! Just a big kid at heart!

    My son loves this sphero. We purchased the original sphero last year and after we watched star wars, we had to have the bb8 version. Works well with our iphone and ipad.

    The Sphero company outdid themselves with this little guy. It works really well with the app on phone or device. Lots of features on app. And it just looks cool overall.

    This is a great toy for my grandson. He has already enjoyed many hours of playing with it. The BB 8 will interact with you, so he has had fun learning how to do this.

    The Sphero BB-8 is a super cool toy! I love putting him in the automated mode and letting him chase my cat around. I hope they add more stock holograms in the future!

    My kids would've enjoyed this, but unfortunately we bought them cheap tablets and the app won't work. It's also much smaller than what the box and videos portray it may be. Used the app on my phone, and it was pretty entertaining. Also, he head falls off if you accidentally hit a wall.

    This was a gift for my son's birthday. He loves it and has even taken it to his workplace! The only downside is that you have to use your smartphone to operate it.
