    I am not a tech savy person, but I was able to figure it out!! Easy to use and lots of fun to play with. Love sending R2 after my kids.

    The droid is awesome!!! works great, app friendly interface and great tutorial for both droid and band. I bought the bundle (droid+band) and had some issues with the band outage. It caused me some discomfort since best buy informed me that nothing they could do and cancelled the band (and no refunds since it was part of the bundle as "gift")... I was very disappointed and gave a bad review. But Sphero contacted me and made things right in the very same day. So for Sphero I also give 5 stars to their professionalism and customer care.

    Cool toy. Great sounds. On sale and worth it. The one thing about Sphero is getting the software loaded properly onto your smart phone. Once that is accomplished, it's all good.

    Very fun and has personality like the real R2D2. Doesn't really have any practical functions but fun to play with nonetheless.

    Have been slowly been picking these sphere themed toys as they have been going on clearance. I would recommend to someone at the price I paid for it (39.99) but not the full retail price.
