The advert shows the patrol as if he works like real droid and stops at dangers and such...if it's gonna fly off table and break them maybe not buying it...this review has been the best so far by showing the actual app and product. Been great watching it :)
This is the only negative review i have seen on this half the time the battery was really low if you notice BB-8 is flashing red most of the time.And in patrol mode he can map the area somewhat depending where you're tablet or phone is.If you keep moving the tablet around during patrol he has to remap the area.Not saying it's perfect but he does bump less into stuff.
So... This toy has a functional shelf-life that's limited to however long you have a device with an OS that will run the app, or however long Sphero continues updates (or exists as a company, for that matter). Since I'm guessing the little guy costs more than a few bucks, I'm not at all interested.
Hi, it’s now six years after you made this video. I’ve heard rumors that the Sphero BB-8 App has been discontinued worldwide. Is this true or can the ‘Shpero Play’ from other drive and play bots work?
Yes it is discontinued, just got a second hand one only to find this out. Thank fully though if you have an android there is a work around but to be honest after getting it’s apart from roaming around it’s not that great. I would spend money on something like a cosmo instead way more intelligent
Its called sphero edu after u made ur account press drive scroll to find bb8 set evrything up ur stand for bb8 usb bluetooth then boom u can control it.
+Lam Sterling I've just started doing the waterslide decals, and those work perfect for things like that. After the decal softens it falls right into the slots. For paint, you can can try a black Gundam marker and just fill in the sculpted slots. Or thin down some paint, let it run into the grooves, and then wipe off the excess.
sounds like the r2 one is still better I bought the ex wife one cause she was in to him and I thought it was cool 50 bucks brand new of eBay it was one of the originals from early 2000 and the one they realsed last year is pretty much the same thing like stroomtrooper blaster I had from 96 when I was 7 has been remade numerous times so what I'm trying to say is looks like he r2 one is cooler and you won't step on it
Its called sphero edu after u create an account then press drive then scroll to find bb8 then connect it to your bluetooth set everything up then boom u can control it.
Don't like this video he's just really rude he said the messaging thing was not the best thing but I'll like to see him try to make something like that
To everyone who is lost about the app. It was discontinued. However they app that supports it now the Sphero EDU. these droids still work today
This was better than the whole video for me😢
Can you explain it more because i dont get it. But then how do we control it?
@@bigmellow3190 The droids Should work under the Sphero EDU app which is how I got mine going
how do you control it once the app is finished i just found my old one and i want to control him
@@averyb4127you go to the last thing under the menu, than choose bb8, and than connect by bluetooth

0:50 i saw it hanging in jb hi-fi. there was one left
I didn't expect so much wobbling.
seems like they need to refine mostly everything about the droid. Great review!
Funny
Those two buttons meant yes and no, and the other ones make him drive in specific shapes. I don't know what the other two do though.

The way he moves is so funny! I love it!
i think this is worth more as a collectible then as a toy
I have one
Just got one from someone who thought it was broken ! So awesome !
What app do I use, I got no fuckin clue
@@Gnarwall2137 there is more app for it
Mine is pretty good.. And work properly !!

The best place I play with app controlled BB-8 is on a pool table. I cover up the holes with cups.
I can’t get the app for some reason could you send the link
Hey if you guys know what app it is cause I’ve had mine for a few years but I got a new phone so I don’t have the app anymore and I don’t have the box

@ a Cosmo? I was looking at getting one of these second hand, but I'm not sure now.
You have to use the USB cable too, not just the charging base. You have to connect it to the base
I can’t seem to find the app for my bb8 in the App Store any help please and thank you
