Confusing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really confusing to use at the beginning. More of a collector item then anything else.

Fun novelty, but not worth the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item came free with my BB8 droid during the holidays. It was fun the first time I used it, but I don't think it's worth the full asking price. And it doesn't work all that great. If you can get it free, or really cheap, I'd say go for it, but if you have to spend more than $20 for it, I'd say avoid it.

Cannot get this to interface with BB-9E
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product came free with my purchase of the BB-9E droid, but there is no instructions included on how to get it to interface with the droid. I'm not saying that it does not work, I just have not had the time to research this further. It would be nice if the instructions were included.

Cool looking but not too reliable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this band in order to avoid giving our daughter our phone. It wasn't possible. The band is not as reliable and it was too complicated for her to use. It does look awesome

Just what it was missing for my Sphero BB*!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the bb8 months ago and i was able to control it only using the app of my cell phone, but with the force band, it is much more fun than ever. This is the piece that i felt was missing. You still need to install an app at to set it up thw force band and get trained on how to control your BB8, and there are some games like pokemon go, also the force band talk ro you. I can stand on one side of my house and control bb8 to the other side and it never looses conection from the force band. It has great control when you move your hand and it feels even more real when the force band talks to you in the voice of obi wan. This force band also works well with other toys made by spero.

It works well!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The updates took a long time, more than 3 hours. After that, it was easy to use. It was easy to learn how to control the BB-8.
