I just ordered her for myself and can’t wait for her arrival! I love her even more now knowing the origins of her name. And the Harry Potter themed updates make a lot more sense. 😂
Sadly, the company itself is terrible. I was a backer for the Indigogo project and I got mine about 4 months ago, sadly it broke after a very short while and is now a paper weight. I have reached out to the company more than 10 times, I even sent a message to the CEO. I have been promised a new unit, but after 3 months of waiting I give up. Do NOT buy this for ANYONE you care about. They will love it until it breaks and then they will be heart broken by the total lack of customer service.
Update: After 3 months and 29 emails, including several to the CEO himself a replacement finally arrived. It was way more of a hassle that it should be. Although it is nice to have a working unit, the whole experience has not been good.
Before I spend my money on it, because I'm poor, Can it have a simple casual chat? I'd like to have a robot just to keep me company and just talk about normal stuff like how are you and Etc.
Please tell me how this robot behaves when you are not interacting with it? If, for example, I sit at the computer or go for a walk, will Loona go on her own and study everything? And I also want to ask, is it a big problem if I don’t know English? It is important for me that the home robot is autonomous and can be on its own if I cannot pay attention to it.
I’m super super excited, super excited that I ordered a Loona and it was delivered the other day but I am still being so patient and not unboxing it yet. I feel like i want to meet maybe til Christmas before I opened and let Loona out of her box. Also, I kinda ordered Loona mainly for my dog (2 yr old Jack Russell) as her little sister ❤😂😅😊🎉
@michaelheyn2484 because dogs can be expensive especially if they have health issues. 400 dollar pet or dog. If u can afford a dog get a dog. For people who cant this doesnt seem like a bad alternative.
$400 isn't that much. You can get one from a shelter for even less. Buy food in bulk and it's easily less than $50/mo, depending on the size of the dog. Dogs feel real feelings, a real bond, it's a sentient being. This thing is so fake it's hard to look at.@@Shake688
I’m interested to buy 2 one for upstairs and 1 for downstairs to watch out for my elderly mom and remind her of things can that work 2 loonas in the house?
Bought mine through indiegogo back in February. Was supposed to receive it after a month delay on 5/26 but it never left the factory!! I jist opened a dispute with my credit card. Anyone else experience this??
That’s terrible! I’m sorry to hear that. I’ll mention it in my next email with them so they can hopefully rectify the situation. If you can, send me an email to info@ericjkuhns.com and I’ll forward it to them to see if we can get this fixed for you.
yep, its a garbage robot at that. It has maybe half the features as advertised. Customer support is a joke. You have to be connected to a home wifi network to use the few features it does have. Total disappointment and waste of money!
@@johnr2391 I guess you can return it. Mine is being delivered as we speak, so I get it today and I'm going to try it out. But yes it says some of the features need to be online. I know they said that on the official video I think or some review
By all means get it for them! If you think so. I see its been a month so maybe Im to late but before you decide was hoping to share with you something.! Owning Loona for about 2 weeks now this has been my experience. I’ve dealt with many issues such as running into things like walls, straight into my feet. Just anything it’s not as smart as it seemed in the advertising and online reviews. Loona can’t have multiple masters. Poor audio recognition, It registers the audio of a clear concise command about 1 in every 3-4 attempts. From within 1 foot range too. So it shown a remote feature. In their ad it shows a guy at work (presumably a father with kids and a pet dog at home) checking the app looking thru the eyes of Loona using this promised feature to check on his house from work. Cool. If it worked, I tried from my job away from home to access the remote feature to check on my house like in the ad. “Want your other friend to have a friend when your not home? Or just want some communication from afar? Your new best friend( Loona) has got your back. Daddy when are you coming HOME?I’ll be home at 6” clearly claiming you can do just that. However it just doesn’t work. Says it needs to be on the same Wi-Fi network aka in range of the home Wi-Fi Loona is on. Therefore cannot be used at work at all. Straight up lies and feels like lots of false promises were delivered for this by the company. It’s sad. Nor could a wife/ husband both check either given only 1 login at once.. how is it family oriented if only one person can be it’s “master”. Which contradicts its promises and advertisements again. I have to hand my phone to anyone who wants to play with Loona. That’s not very family practical for a family with kids ect. Not fun for visiting friends either. I’m very disappointed. And the toy kit it came with the “ball” is paper. Very disappointed as well. Not quality. You could step on it by mistake. Now it’s flat there goes that, could get wet from a spill accidentally nearby ect. Paper.. for a 400$ robot a paper toy. Yikes. Suppose to greet me at the door. It’s never done this. She’s also (referencing ur advertisement further) claims you can call her from room away and she will come running wherever she is and find her way over. This just simply doesn’t happen. Saying “Hey Loona” doesn’t start her commands. Only “Hello Loona”. Yet in the video they say “Hey Loona” with it following commands afterward smoothly as if that also works. She haas never successfully fetched a lightly tossed small object or her ball once.

I want an interactive buddy like the droids in Star Wars: BD-1, LO-LA59 and BB-8. Which would you say is the most interactive of the ones you've tried out (Loona, Emo, Eilik)? And how long does their batteries last per charge? 🙂 Thanks in advance 🖤
If you’re looking for a robot that is more droid like and is extremely interactive, I would 100% go with Loona. I’m also putting out an Emo versus Loona comparison video this Saturday so you may want to check that out before you purchase one. Also, thanks for watching!
I’m thinking of getting an AI robot. I’ve always wanted a robot ever since I was a kid and I’m thinking of getting this one. Fingers crossed it goes well.
Definitely! But the cat would probably have to be younger and okay with something moving towards it fast. I feel like a kitten would love this, though!
I'm keen to get a 'pet'´/companion robot but with so many coming on the market it feels a bit overwhelming! Emo, Loona, Ebo X ... I haven't been able to find a video that does a kind of side-by-side comparison so I can get a feel for which one to go for. I want something that can be relatively autonomous and entertaining, but integration with things like Spotify would be awesome.
I’m planning on doing a comparison video between all of these and more in September/October! It can be confusing. So far it’s a toss up for me between Loona and Emo. I like that Emo can sit on my desk but Loona is a lot more responsive and easier to interact with listening-wise imo. Good luck on your search in the meantime and thanks for watching!
@@EricJKuhnscan you actually have a conversation with them though? Not just small talk like whats your birthday, like a proper random conversation? Can emo do it?
You cannot explain this to a hypnotized person, for some people the fate is sealed, the satanism has been on full display in the last 3 years yet some people still cannot see it
I heard that the over-the-air updates and also that Chat GPT will be for free forever if you are buying the pre-orders or something but I might be wrong
@@EricJKuhns I waited almost 6 months for Loona to arrive. Got multiple emails stating they had a flood in their factory in China, they had to quality check bla bla -- that's why the delay. Ours Loona legs get stuck and she flipped upside down and make a lot of jamming noise. Every time we turn her on, she just get into more weird "stuck" position maneuver and got even worst. My son doesn't care to turn it on anymore. Very sad that this such a poor quality product - considering that I had even tipping them extra for Loona.
Do I need to activate chat gpt on my phone and talk to my phone? So loona is just besides? Also, does have loona any useful smart home function... Any?
I don’t think it needs the app for the commands and the ball, I think it’s like emo where u can tell it to connect to chat gpt so maybe doesn’t need app for that. I don’t think it’s that dependent to the app
I like real robots but I don't want them to totally think for themselves unless it's scifi fiction like a book or movie. We are not ready for that and won't be for centuries.
Your review is highly biased by the fact you got her for free. I was hoping for the ChatGPT function to be better, she has no semsors that actually matter, and, just to name a few, try giving Loona to a dog while you're at work through remote control and let's see how long she lasts.
According to their FAQ page it looks like Loona can understand 8 languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean and You can change the language in the Settings on the App after connecting Loona with the App!
Brilliant, if you are 10 years old.. I would love a robot that was useful, not just for playing silly kids games and other pointless stupid things.. I want it to have autonomous security mode for when I go out, for it to work all of my home automation when asked to turn tv on or lights off.. I would rather wait for a few more years when hopefully these robots are more adult orientated. So for me no thank-you total waste of money.. get bored of it in a week or two like i did with Victor..it would join the other junk in the cupboard .
I don’t blame you! There’s a lot of catching up for the AI robot industry. If you’re interested though, I made a video on budget robots that can be tailored to adults: 10 AI Home Robots For Adults UNDER $1000! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XkQW0az5ORc.html We’re def waiting for that TRUE AI robot companion though. I think it’ll just take one really good company to put one out and at the same time, we’ll need to get closer to AGI.
It is! I’m hoping that as this kind of AI robot tech becomes more common, the prices on these types of robots will drop at least a little bit. Thank you for watching!
Until you have to pay for it, Hopefully they add the features the kickstart video advertised loona as having when i shelled out $400 for it. Once i got it (7 months later) it does hardly anything compared to the advertisement. Zero edge detecting! cant run a wifi hotspot on your phone for when you are out of the house... loona is dumb and GPT is rendered useless along with any android or ios control... complete waste of money honestly.
This robot is scam! Owned one, 2,5 mins of fun then get back to seller! Loona is dumb as hell, doesn't find the charging station, can't find the way, recognize my voice, the app is true pain in the a** .... Keep your money, I've been fooled
