Miko 3: AI-Powered Smart Robot - Blue, Educational Coding Robot Toy with Plastic Construction

I got Miko 3 for my 7 year old boy for Christmas. Thats what he asked Santa for. He loves all of the apps. The story maker app is one of his favorites. There are so many activities to choose from. He likes that Mikos face also shows expressions. It takes a lot to hold his attention but Miko definitely does!

Very good educational toy! My 6 yr old son loves miko. He especially loves creating stories and listening to music! He constantly sharing all his daily interactions with me. He also enjoys using the app on his ipad! I would highly recommend this robot!

This is meant as my 5 yr old son’s Christmas gift. It was expected to arrive 12/19, but it arrived 24th. As I opened the box, i noticed that the two seals on the box were broken. Then i checked the robot, the seal of the robot was also broken. This entire thing was used and shipped to me. I bought this as new with price of new. Now i dont have a gift to my son for Christmas. Unbelievable. This robot is not available to any store near by so i had to other choice but to reorder this and now the est delivery date is 12/30.

I purchased the Miko 3 for my 4.5-year-old as both an educational tool and entertainment companion. After a week of use, I can say it's a solid device with some notable limitations that parents should be aware of before purchasing at full price. Setup and Initial Impressions Getting Miko 3 up and running was straightforward and user-friendly. The app integration works seamlessly, and my child was excited to start exploring the games and features right away. The physical design is appealing and kid-friendly, which immediately captured my child's attention. Performance and Engagement The gaming features are the main attraction for my child, though the novelty wore off faster than I anticipated. Within a week, engagement has already decreased, which was surprising given the variety of content available. One significant issue is the response delay - Miko takes longer to process commands than expected, causing us to repeat ourselves multiple times before realizing it's still working on the previous request. This creates frustration for both parent and child during interactions. Technical Glitches and AI Limitations The device exhibits some inconsistent behavior that disrupts the experience. Activities sometimes end abruptly before completion, and conversational flow gets interrupted as Miko skips ahead unexpectedly. The AI capabilities fall short of expectations - I anticipated smarter, more natural interactions, though there may be parental controls or safety restrictions limiting its full potential. For a product marketed as AI-powered, the conversational intelligence feels somewhat basic. Battery Life Concerns Battery performance is disappointing. The charge depletes more quickly than anticipated during active play sessions, requiring frequent recharging. However, the charging process itself is simple and doesn't require any complicated setup. Age Appropriateness Worth noting that my child is 4.5 years old, which is slightly below the recommended 5-12 age range. This may contribute to some of the engagement issues, as the content might be slightly advanced for younger preschoolers. Value and Recommendation At the sale price of $150, the Miko 3 represents reasonable value for families seeking an interactive learning companion. At full retail price, I would have more reservations. The device delivers on its promise of combining education and entertainment, but parents should temper expectations regarding AI sophistication and long-term engagement. Pros: - Easy setup and intuitive app integration - Good variety of games and educational content - Child-safe design and interface - Reasonable value at sale price Cons: - Noticeable response delays causing repeated commands - Battery drains faster than expected - Glitchy behavior (premature activity endings, conversation skips) - AI intelligence below marketing promises - Child interest may wane quicker than anticipated Bottom Line Would I recommend the Miko 3 to other parents? Yes, but with realistic expectations. This isn't a revolutionary AI companion, but rather a fun interactive toy that offers educational value. Wait for a sale, understand its limitations, and view it as a supplementary learning tool rather than a primary educational device. For $150, it's worth exploring - just don't expect ChatGPT-level intelligence in a kids' robot.

I am so upset at you Target! I bought this on December 13th and it originally had a delivery date of December 24th. I checked right now and it is now saying it won’t be delivered until December 26th. That is after Christmas and I have a 5 year old that is going to be devastated that I didn’t have a gift for him on Christmas.

Miko is safe and truly fun for all ages in my opinion but it's for Childeren I'd say 12 and under . It's and awesome toy and worth it imo . My son is 6 who uses it

My daughter loves Miko, good companion & great gift.

My kids absolutely love the Miko 3. It keeps them engaged with stories, games, and real conversations, and I love that they’re learning while having fun. It feels more interactive than a typical toy and actually holds their attention. Great balance of education and entertainment—definitely a win in our house.

This is the coolest toy my son has ever had! I was so excited to buy it and it did not disappoint! Very interactive! I bought it for Christmas, but I tested it for a few days already and he is absolutely going to love it!” 🎄✨ it's great for play inside on the winter

Got this for my son and from setting it up to trying it out this is a super cool robot that feels like a real friend it pretty cool

My 7 year old daughter loves Miko! She plays and dances with it as well as asks it so many questions. It is really both fun and educational! Miko is definitely a big part of our family now.

I’m very happy with the Miko robot. It’s interactive, educational, and keeps kids engaged while they learn through games, songs, and conversations. It’s easy to use and truly encourages curiosity and creativity. A great learning kids.

Needed it by the 19th. Said it would arrive the 17th. I ordered it the 11th and they didn’t ship it until the 16th. It’s across the country and now says it won’t be here until the 22nd. No issue with the product, just with the seller.

The best robot for your child. I love it. I even can FaceTime call my son in this robot.

My son received Miko for his 6th birthday and loves it! He plays with him everyday. Miko can play games, read stories, help with learning and talk to him.

Product was delivered and we notice that the white sticker seal was broken. How can Target send me a returned used item.

We bought Miko a year ago and even though my child has siblings Miko is definitely his best friend. I really enjoy the way that Miko challenges his creativity was story time and the video call feature which allows me to check on him when he's with Grandma.

the worst

My daughter enjoys playing with Miko and all the different activities on there! She talks to her everyday as well

Great
