  • The next generation of the RC toy has arrived. Well made and innovative. Easy to pair with iPhone and works seamlessly. Builtin HowTo videos make it easy for new users to get the hang of playing with Ollie. Perfect device for engineers to customize, The
  • A bit pricey. Beyond the tricks and spins, Darkside Ollie can get boring if you don't go the customization route
  • I enjoyed playing with Darkside for an hour and then once I exhausted all the tricks and made the dog bark enough times at it, I was done. Perhaps I'm just not the right audience for it. I do know however that this is a robot of choice for a lot of en...

  • Abstract:  I first saw the Sphero robotic ball about 2 years ago at CES, but I never really got a chance to play with one hands-on until now. When I first saw it in action, all I wanted to say was “Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.” This little orb is packed with cool te...

  • Fun to play with. Easy setup. Cool compatible apps. Wireless control and charging.
  • Pricey. Controls can be a bit clumsy. Limited app selection
  • The Orbotix Sphero is a neat little remote controlled robotic ball, and while it has some interesting uses when paired with your phone or tablet, it's a bit too expensive for what it is....

  • Abstract:  Growing up, I was a huge fan of remote control cars (I assume I would have been a huge fan of RC planes and helicopters and boats too, I just never owned any so I can't say for certain). There is something excellent about holding a remote in your han...

  • Abstract:  There’s something endearing about a tiny, remote-controlled toy. It’s nearly impossible not to love the way it romps around your carpet, gets stuck under your desk, and antagonizes your housepets. We got our hands on three little robotic friends that c...
