Fun, Smart, and So Entertaining â Our Whole Family Loves It!
We are absolutely thrilled with our Miko robot! From the moment we unboxed it, it exceeded all our expectations. Itâs incredibly interactive, responsive, and packed with personality. The voice commands are easy to use, and it moves smoothly across different surfaces. Our kids have been completely captivatedâit keeps them entertained for hours while also introducing basic tech and coding skills in a fun way.The build quality is great, and setup was super simple right out of the box. Itâs also surprisingly durable (a big plus when little hands are involved!). Weâve had a blast discovering all the different modes and features.If youâre looking for a fun, educational, and engaging toy or gift, we highly recommend the Miko robot. Worth every penny!

Not what you'd expect
UPDATE 01/11/2025Customer service was extremely helpful in answering my questions regarding Miko use/prompts. Really, it comes down to reading the documentation, which I've referenced in my initial review, and properly understanding the product's functions. It's not fully AI enabled, interacting with an LLM etc. but after further consideration, not sure if want my kids interacting with AI to that capacity. Watching the kids have dance parties and listen to stories, enjoying themselves, is all I can ask for and this product delivers. The minor issue with the app content not being accessed on the miko mini screen, actually males sense... there's quite a lot of activities in the Miko app that work much on a tablet. Overall, after having time to reflect I, and my kids, are quite happy with this little robot.REVIEW UPDATE 01/02/2025I've been in contact with the Miko team, expressed my initial impressions with the device and the integration with the app. To sum it up, they've been extremely helpful. I've been quite impressed with the customer service. The support they've provided is based on how to best interact with the product, how to understand it's features, and how to approach this in a way that it benefits my child. I've updated the review to 3/5 stars based on this support/outcome. I'll be updating this review in a couple of weeks to update on how our interaction with the product/app has been.PREVIOUS REVIEW:_______________________________Get your child an Alexa, they'll be way better off.Functionality is very limited, they have a set of prompts or actions that the miko will recognize - if is manages to pick up on what your kids says. Those prompts are online, search for miko mini documentation. You'll see how limited the actions are. They sell you on chatGPT like features, not the case. You'll be limited to a few animal, planet etc. trivia games and limited iheart radio songs., a music party game.. again, you can get that and more from an Alexa. Kids had fun seeing the miko move around but when they couldn't get it to interact the way an echo can.. they lost interest.Now what bothers me even more... they sell Miko Max which you imagine would be a service integrated into the Miko robot.. not the case, it's completely tablet based. So what's the purpose of getting that service? You'd imagine kids would be able to view the Disney story books etc. on the miko screen, nope. To take it one step further, if you return the miko, which I did, I can't keep the Miko max app on my kids table!! I was stupid enough to buy the year subscription, what a loss. Again, makes no sense why they wouldn't allow you to maintain the Miko Max service on your tablet IF it's not even integrated with the miko itself!Frankly, this product left a lot to be desired. Poor software integrations and functionality. Perhaps Amazon will get smart and release a kid friendly ai assistant on their devices. A miko voice will replacement for Alexa will be more than enough đđKeep miko away from your kids. Mine is getting shipped back.

Miko regalo de navidad
Mi hijo de 5 años tenĂa la ilusiĂłn de tener un robot como regalo de navidad. Nos decidimos por Miko, la compra fue fĂĄcil y el envĂo rĂĄpido a pesar de que lo pedimos para Colombia. Al llegar tiene una buena presentaciĂłn y manuales que hacen el proceso muy intuitivo para instalar y programar el robot. En este caso yo soy la que habla inglĂ©s y mi hijo ha podido disfrutar algunas funciones gracias a la interacciĂłn que yo tengo por la barrera comunicativa. Es importante mantener el hĂĄbito de carga y ha sido un poco selectivo con algunos cargadores, sin embargo mi hijo lo disfruta y muestra interĂ©s en el. Tuve un follow up de mi experiencia con Miko y mencione esta limitante y me ofrecieron poder añadirle un idioma lo que me parece Ăștil para casos como el mĂo. Seguiremos en la experiencia con el ahora con este cambio. Estamos a la giran expectativa de que ahora si le aprovecharĂĄ las funciones

Fun and educational, but needs improvements
Update: Iâm updating my review to 5 stars thanks to Mikoâs great customer serviceâthey followed up multiple times to address my concerns. Most importantly, my daughter loves this robot! Sheâs excited to talk to Miko daily, play math and memory games, explore animal facts, and create books. She also enjoys the science apps. Itâs a much better alternative to passive screen time.Original review:Miko is a great interactive toy for my 6-year-old daughter. She spends about an hour a day talking to it, and she enjoys the games, especially the book-writing activity. Miko also has other games that help stimulate her thinking, which is a plus.However, there are a few downsides. The battery only lasts about two hours, so it needs to be charged daily. You also have to remember to turn it off when not in use. I reached out to customer support about this, and they were very helpful in explaining the battery lifeâgreat customer service overall.Another drawback is the limited number of apps, despite the $99 per year subscription. Additionally, Miko struggles with music recognition; it never plays the song that we requested. Iâm still waiting for their team to get back to me on this issue.Regarding movement, Miko doesnât run around like in the promotional videos. It moves briefly and only when given specific commands like âmove forwardâ or âturn around,â but it wonât follow you around.Lastly, Miko Mini is only available in English. It would be great if it supported multiple languages. In our home, we speak both English and Portuguese, so having a Portuguese option would make it even more useful.Thereâs definitely room for improvement, and I wonder if Miko 3 might be a better option.

Miko Mini Fun
The Miko Mini has been a big hit with my 4-year-old sonâitâs like an Alexa on wheels made just for kids. Itâs interactive, fun, and educational, but what I really love is that it doesnât randomly start talking or singingâyou have to prompt it, which keeps things peaceful. The battery life isnât the longest, but itâs not a huge issue since my son can plug it in himself when it says itâs tired. Overall, a great buy and his current favorite toy!
