Beep boop.
The marketing notes we have for this thing say that it’ll be your new best friend, but that’s probably (hopefully) a stretch.
It’s not your new best friend. Frankly we’ve seen toothbrushing apps with more personality.
But that doesn’t mean it isn’t a rad little novelty robot capable of charming the crap out of a kid or an easily impressed adult.
It does shapes and numbers and colors. It asks quiz questions. It dances and lights up and makes sounds.
It’s a pretty cool experience for fourteen bucks, is what we’re saying.
So while this isn’t going to turn your kid into a genius or become your new sassy robot wingman at the bar, it’s probably worth having around.
Plus when the robot uprising happens, you can just kick it over. This really makes the case for designing robots that are baby-shaped instead of Schwarzenegger-shaped, no?
