There's a particular look kids get when they've found something online that seems to exist in the space between toy and technology. The RC Flying Ball Drone Toy is apparently one of those things. Your child has already opened the Amazon tab on your laptop, full of hope. You sigh the sigh of a man who has seen many spinning things malfunction in living rooms.
See it, Dad? →What Is It?
An RC-controlled flying sphere toy with obstacle sensors that allegedly hovers indoors without crashing into your furniture, your cat, or your dreams of a tidy home. It's the kind of thing that looks impossibly cool in the product photos and somehow less impressive in every video review ever made.
What Does the Internet Think?
With 6,700 reviews and a 3.6-star rating, this product has reached the critical mass where quantity of reviews doesn't save it from mediocrity. When you've got that many people weighing in and the needle barely budges past 'passable,' the internet is trying to tell you something. Translation: it flies, technically, but probably not as well as the child expects. ★★★½☆ across 6,700 reviews.
This is a NO. We already have a drawer full of promising gadgets that seemed revolutionary on the screen but settled into 'one battery charge and then forgotten' within weeks. A 3.6-star rating with 6,700 reviews is the consumer equivalent of 'yeah, it does the thing, but don't get excited about it.' Save your money and your expectations.
