    It connects to the BB-8 almost instantly and has a decent range as well. It takes some time to master controlling the droid (when performing a Force pull your Band is reversed, so moving your hand right makes it go left and vice versa), but once you get it, it's great fun and almost magical. You can make the robot walk beside you and turn as you do--so it's like walking a dog without a leash.

    The other features are entertaining as well, such as a short virtual adventure game guiding an animated BB-8 through a damaged ship using the Band, and my kid loves playing make believe while making sound effects like light sabers and star fighters using the Band.

    5.0 out of 5 stars This Is How BB-8 Was Meant to Be Controlled...
    Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2016
    Style: Sphero Star Wars Force BandVerified Purchase
    This seems like the way that BB-8 should have been being controlled all along!!!

    I got the original BB-8 last year when it was first released, and I've truly enjoyed using it with the app on my phone. However, when I saw that the Force Band was finally being released, I pre-ordered it right away. After having it for 10 days now I have to say I'm extremely happy with the product.

    It works EXACTLY as advertised. Force Push forward to get rolling...lower your arm to slow down and stop. Bring your hand back towards you in a "Come Here" type of motion, and BB-8 will roll backwards. Turn by basically simply pointing left or right.

    I will say that this takes a bit of getting used to. My initial uses all resulted in what seemed like a series of uncoordinated crashes while I flailed about like a maniac. However, after some practice I was controlling BB-8 like a Jedi Apprentice...with more and more skills developing as I practice more and more.

    I've used the Force Band in it's other modes much more limitedly. I've only collected a couple of Holocrons, so I don't have a ton of experience doing that...however, it does work as shown in the Tutorial videos. I've also only used it for "Combat Training" a couple of times. It works well in this mode, also. I could see the Combat Training being something that kids could really get into, considering the sound effects react really well to your arm movements. It would add a cool element to light saber and blaster battles.

    Overall, I'm really happy with the Force Band. It meets all of my expectations, and does everything it says it does...and does it well.

    Others have said app dead watch dead. Not so at all. The watch just needs an update, although it took 3 hrs to update it completely, I just left it to finish. But, you do need to add the apk to your android phone to do this. Once completed it talks, has different modes some work some don’t. It has a combat training which you can move your arm/hand to shoot a gun. Other mode is the force and the button changes all different colors. So it has some entertainment value as well as a Star Wars collectible. You just need to update it first. Great deal at $10

    These should not be sold. Sphero no longer has the app for this device on the app store. The band does nothing but prompt you to download the app, which is no longer possible.

    The media could not be loaded.
     I love this toy. Most of the negative reviews I read about this toy were not helpful and mostly wrong. I bought the Force Band on a whim because of the discounted price and have been delighted with it so much I purchased the Sphero brand R2-D2 app-enabled droid a few days later. So much fun. Everyone that sees it is impressed at how realistic it is. My Star Wars Force Band box is in Japanese and it is legitimate Disney. These toys were discontinued and I suspect it was liquidated from the Japanese market.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad...
    Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018
    Style: Sphero Star Wars Force BandVerified Purchase
    Grabbed one for $15. Happy with that price but release price would have been severely overpriced,.

    I think Sphero was listening when people said make a controller so we’re not tying up our devices, unfortunately we kind of meant a tiny handheld screen dedicated to solely Sphero droids, not a wrist mount that lets you drive and steer with exaggerated power ranger moves. Personally I’ll just use my Apple Watch where I can choose a droid then get a full screen joystick I can drive around just tracing directions on the watch face.

    Between the lukewarm reception, them flat out giving them away with droids, and now just a $15 flat cost, it’s obvious these didn’t fill the need. Even in the Sphero droids app force band is almost an afterthought. You can connect to it and put it to sleep, but can’t do any of the band activities, you have to open it’s own app.

    Something none of the other Star Wars sphero require.

    In the app it’s mainly tutorials disguised as games with the exception of the Holocron vault where you set your band to force sensitive, wait for the haptic feedback and Jedi voice telling you to search the force for a nearby holocron and it’s a Pokémon go emulator. Some holocrons produce armory cards that you can set your band to use, make exaggerated pew pew motions and you can hear Han’s DL-44 pistol firing, change it, wave an arm and hear Rey’s lightsaber swinging

    Pros, it works, send your droid away, call it back, steer by waving your arms. Downside, it’s a mute drone. No emotes with the band.
    Nice Star wars-esque design, clever magnetic buckle and well tailored cloth Velcro strap, weathering is nice, honestly a decent little add on prop for cosplay or Halloween especially using the sound effects, someone could swing a dummy saber and get the sweet lightsaber effects

    If you collect the Sphero Star Wars line and want the complete line, if you want a decent looking little Star Wars prop with surprisingly loud effects, for $15, grab one.

    If you want a way to control your droid without tying up your device, it marginally does that. Again, no sounds , (especially with BB-8 that produces all sounds through your now closed app) at least Artoo will randomly play an emote or some random chatter, but you won’t control emotes at all.

    Not sorry I bought it, the design looks good, but I’ll use my Apple Watch to control it or just buy a cheap 7” tablet just for sphero. This wasn’t what fans and collectors asked for.
