    The Droid that was looking for me?
    Well, I’ve been eyeing Sphero products for a while, but they were just outside my price range for purchases of such items. When Amazon displayed the current deals on these little guys, I jumped at the chance to grab one. Why did I select BB-9E before buying BB-8? Two reasons. First, he just looks so sleek and cool. Second, a reviewer said he was cute, but grumpy—compared to BB-8, and I was intrigued. The sales pitch “This is not the droid you’re looking for—it’s the droid that’s looking for you!” also had me from hello. Upon his arrival, unboxing, and first patrol in my house, I can confirm BB-9E has his own little attitude. He feels sturdy, and initial bumps into walls or future did not create any scratches, dings, or dents on him. He did lose his head once on one of the harder knocks, but it went back on with no problem. I confess that I was doing the driving on that turn and on my slick kitchen floor. I’ve never owned a ball shaped robot, which means I had a little learning curve there.I’ve tried BB-9E on carpet. He doesn’t go as fast and has a tendency to get stuck sometimes, requiring human help. He really tries to go though. Flings his head back like he’s putting every effort into it. It’s funny to watch. It’s relatable because that is how I look trying to do Algebra! And irritated bleeps would be needed there too. :)Like other reviewers, I wish that sounds would come directly from the droid itself rather than the app, but I’m still impressed with this product. Regarding the app, I had no trouble at all with the download or use. I am using a newer phone, iPhone X. I can’t say how this setup would work on older phones / older operating systems. My advice would be to check compatibility before buying any droid, especially if this is intended for a gift.The inductive charging base is a nice feature in design and function. It has a reset button on one side. I didn’t notice that until I watched a video about the product.Overall, I’m satisfied with my BB-9E. It’s a fun device and conversation piece.

    Si bien es un drone, y aunque su habilidad no sea volar, divierte hacerlo rodar por casi cualquier superficie, eso sí es necesario descargar la app para poderlo utilizar, lo cual no es impedimento y más importante tiene excelentes funciones, sin duda un buen regalo para un niño o un fan de la serie de StarWars, tarda aproximadamente dos horas en cargar y dura 15 minutos en funcionamiento.
