Review: Sphero mini is smaller, but worth it! - This little sphero is fun and easy to use. The sphero is designed to be sturdy and this one delivers. My child uses spheros at school, so she wanted one for Christmas. This was a good value price wise as some of the larger spheros are a bit more expensive. They move quickly, you can customize color, and easily connect to the sphero coding program. I am happy with this purchase, it would be great for kids as they are working on their coding abilities.
Review: SO VERSITILE - This hopefully short review will feature 2 parts. A casual fun side, and "I like to develop video games or robotics" side. CASUAL: First off, this will drive on carpet, as long as it's not too thick! This thing this fun right out of the box! It has all sorts of intuitively built functions, albeit with a couple issues. Driving it around, it has multiple fun ways to accomplish this task. The stick controls work well but are finicky. However it's still quite fun. Feels like you're directing a drunk driver around, as it seems to function like a weirder version of a quadcopter drones' headless mode. Frustrating and hard to control, but extremely fun. The other driving modes are weird but neat. It has a tilt control mode, which is hard to get working properly, as it still feels like it has a weirdly programmed headless mode. So it can get confusing. It also has an entertaining "golf" mode. The golf mode is fun but is hard to learn at first. Your swiping of your phone is hard to get used to, because the angle and side you're swiping is asynchronous to the way you aim the actual ball. Swipe any way you want, and it will only go the way you aimed before you swiped. The other driving modes are poorly made gimmicks, not worth mentioning. The games are fun, but the controls make it irritating and sometimes not responsive. Yes, it comes with games. You use the ball as the controller to move a ship across a screen, or drive a car. Very neat! If these were the only functions of the ball, I would give this ball a 3.5 out of 5, or a 4 out of 5. Fun, but eventually an adult like myself will grow tired of it. This concludes the casual part of the review. Are you a game developer or robotics developer? Yes? Enjoy your new toy! If you install the education app, you will quickly find yourself in a funland! It seems to run on javascript, and at the time of this review, I haven't checked that completely. However, I've looked into it's engine. Yes, this app seems to have a javascript powered engine, which functions similar to Unreal Engine 5's blueprints system. THE FUNCTIONS REALLY SURPRISED ME! (but if you're serious about having fun with this ball, buy the advanced version) This ball has axis positioning check features, collision check bools, airborne bool checks, landing from airborne collision check bools, sound effect functions, LED color change functions, variables, functions, loops, and probably more than what I saw in just a couple minutes of looking into the app. It absolutely blew my mind when I looked into the app. I seriously recommend one of these if you want something to mess around with for farts and laughs. But if you want a fuller experience, you should probably buy the 200 dollar version. OVERALL: I love this ball! I can't wait to see what I can do with this coding wise!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will my cat break this if she bats at it on hardwoods?**
A: I run this on tiles everyday playing with my cat, he swats/slaps it all the time and it hits my concrete walls and wooden cupboard.

**Q: Does it work with Kindle Fire?**
A: Yes it does. Download the Sphero Edu App.

**Q: Is the soccer theme different from the other colored minis?**
A: How do you mean? It’s just a different color

**Q: What is the name of the app ?**
A: There's a bunch:
Sphero Mini
Sphero Edu
Sphero Play
.....and some others
