Sphero makes irresistible toys for adults, children and cats. Their next achievement: the Sphero BB-8. Great for everyone, but certainly for the Star Wars fanatics among us. The Droid moves exactly the same as his brother in the movie. You control him with your phone or tablet. To the fridge and back, for example. Mind you: he does not serve food and drinks. The opdonder follows voice commands without any jamming. Your pet or partner can learn something from that. But he does not only work on command, he also has his own personality. That personality changes as he gets to know you better. That way you get better and better friends. There is a projector in his brainpan. With this he shows the coolest holograms.

The BB-8 comes in a nice black box. After unpacking, put the head on the base and put the plug in the socket. To my surprise, the robot's head starts to move and automatically makes its way to the top of its 'body'.
The details are sharp and beautifully worked out. The optical sensors also look good.
His head rotates on his torso with the help of wheels. I have read in other reviews that these can collect dirt but I have not had that problem yet.
The only thing that can be improved is the software in the app. Now BB-8 is repeatedly rolling into everything without remembering where it did it.

The BB-8 is packed great alone. You can see from everything that a lot of attention has been paid to this product. The box itself is already a great item. The BB-8 Sphero is of very good quality, the print on the BB-8 is beautifully done and completely smooth. His head is also very detailed. Control is via an App. Note that this ONLY works with the BB-8 app and not with the other Sphero apps for the 2.0 Sphero. This is a shame because now you miss a lot of fun apps and you have to buy the 2.0 version to play it. But all in all a great product and it rolls and talks really great (sound comes from the app). If you love Star Wars and love gadgets, this is a must!

This product is simply genius! When I saw the announcement I immediately fell in love with this new toy/gadget! The manufacturer has already surprised with the Sphero in the past, but the BB-8 immediately amazes everyone!
The manufacturer is also the one who designed the BB-8 for the new Star Wars movie! So basically this is a smaller copy of the real movie prop!
The device is very responsive! And with the handy Android/IOS app you have many functions at your disposal! You can drive it all by yourself, or let it patrol! In the latter mode, it's as if the BB-8 really thinks completely autonomously! He also remembers every obstacle, so every lap he makes through your living room gets better and better without any real collisions!
This is one of those things that can appeal to young and old! A must-have for any Star Wars fan, and an item that you must see with your own eyes before you can believe how amazing it is!
The only downside is that the thing has to charge for 3 hours! However, you can enjoy your BB-8 for a full hour!
Every Star-Wars aficionado wants this thing under the Christmas tree this year!
