  • Great hardware design, Fab wireless charger
  • Limited support at present, A bit pricey

  • 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...
