Don’t waste your money.
This doesn’t respond to your phone to drive and there’s a much cheaper model with more options and coding on Amazon. Check out
“Makeblock mBot Robot Kit STEM Toy for Kids to Learn Programming” at a fraction of the cost with more options (like voice commands) and coding.
Very nice components. East to follow directions. You do not have to watch a video, or download anything to complete assembly. Well thought out.
Good product

Great project for kids and adults. A must for engineering students.
Quality Materials and very easy to build. I am now learning to program it. I am very happy with my purchase.
Unboxed mbot could not locate Bluetooth module. Emailed support got answer quickly.

Impressively expansive and fun to build
Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2021
This was a very fun robot kit to construct with very clear instructions.The great thing about it is it is wonderful for all levels from those who just want a very advanced remote controlled robot to those who want to visually create their own block commands to even those who want to really dig in and work with Python or C using true Raspberry Pi and/or Arduino C environments.The heart of the mBot Mega is the 2560 which is a very top of the line Arduino Controller. The mBot Mega has extensive connectivity for interfacing with numerous add ons and it even includes a direct Raspberry Pi interface if you want to take it to the next level (You can switch between firmwares on the Mega to either use the native Arduino controller/environment or interface and use a Raspberry).If you are interested in Robotics or even an intermediate/advanced Roboticist, the mBot Mega has so much flexibility and expand-ability, you will be delighted with what you find.I will be tinkering with this mBot Mega for quite some time both with Arduino C and interfacing my Raspberry Pi 4 to it.I added some pictures so you can see it compared side by side with Makebot's mBot Neo too for comparison.Excellent! 5/5
