    Terrific and endless fun for a Star Wars fan. Love the interaction and the movement of the robot. Worth the money.

    I love Sphero brand robots so much. This R2D2 is so fantastically authentic. Its sounds and movements are so perfect. It even gets up on his two feet and bounces back and forth. If you are undecided find a YouTube video on what it looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRFahv6IRrs

    R2D2 is a lot of fun! The sounds he makes and the actions alone while just standing there is so neat. I do wish that it would traverse over uneven surfaces (wood floor to carpet).

    This was much smaller than I expected. I ended up returning it because it looked like it would be easy to break. Not worth the price.

    This Droid is very neat. I grew up loving the original Star Wars Trilogy, and this Droid brings great memories. It can make several movements and sounds of the original R2D2. It is best to use on a flat surface due to struggling with getting stuck on carpet.

    The app that supports R2 D2 is very intuitive and user friendly. If you own BB-8 or BB-9E you can either switch droids via the control app or control all three at the same time. I also own BB-8 and it's a blast running these two little guys together! This R2-D2 is very much like owning the real thing! A must have for SW geeks!

    R2D2 may be small, but his detail, lights, and sounds are spot on. A lot of fun to play around with and the battery life of about an hour is more than enough time. Only "complaint" is the app had to be open for R2 to be turned on. If you close the app, R2 goes to sleep; unless plugged in. Also, once he goes into a "deep" sleep it requires plugging him in for the app to recognize and wake him up. Still, totally worth it.

    sphero has brought R2-D2 as close to life as possible in this little robot. it is fun and my 2 year old loves to see R2 go. very detailed and the lights are awesome. Unlike BB-8, this R2 unit has its own lights and sounds.

    Pretty cool and entertaining. Does everything you’d expect from R2D2. However it is pretty pricey. If it was cheaper I’d give it 5 stars.
