Missing country, wrongly shaped on the globe and wrong information

- Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2025Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseBought this as a Christmas gift for the kids- it’s been on their wish list for a few years now and they are still playing with it in March! The kids love playing the games and using the interactive part to learn about different countries. My only regret is not buying it sooner!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2019Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseWe got the Orboot for our (almost) 3.5 year old son. He is very interested in planets, animals, and dinosaurs, so this was the perfect interactive toy/game for him! It very easily syncs up to your tablet, and has so many aspects to it; this is not something that your child will finish in a day, or a week. The amount of information there is to learn, is incredible!
There are games that work with and without the globe (which makes it perfect for car trips too, if you don't want to bring the globe with you!) For anything that you want to see/discover/learn more about on the globe, you just line up the star with the star on your tablet. It then pulls up really cool information on whatever thing it is. My son really loved figuring out what to feed the animals, by dragging different foods to it, and seeing if the animal ate it or not. A game that does not require the globe, is to help "re-stabalize" an environment, by adding or removing certain animals, plants, or weather. My husband and I ended up playing this part of the game haha! It was a lot of fun! Although the Orboot is too advanced for my one year, my daughter also loved seeing all of the animals, and listening to the music, so it was easy to have all of us play together.
One thing I was not expecting, but was so happy with, is the Orboot comes with the CUTEST passport! It is pretty realistic looking, and there is a stamp for your kiddo to use for all the places they "visit". It also comes with a little booklet of stickers for boarding passes, flags, and major cities. We absolutely love the Orboot, and are so so happy with it! If you are looking for an educational, and interactive toy/game that the entire family can get involved with, I highly recommend the Orboot!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2018Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseThis project has a strange mixing of extreme positive and negative reviews, particularly recently. Now, some of those negative reviews are due to people who are complaining without buying it because they say the earth is flat... so if that's your viewpoint, let's just say you shouldn't buy a globe but shouldn't be reviewing one either. Go review a map or something. But those aside, there are still some really negative reviews, which sometimes makes me skeptical of whether the positive reviews are real or if those people got it for free, etc.
As a result, I was skeptical when I bought this, but my verdict is that I love it. And more importantly, our 6 year old daughter does. I know several reviewers have complained about the buggy app, so I think it may not work on as many different phones and operating systems as Shifu claims. I know I tried to install it on my daughter's "phone" (and yes, my 6 year old daughter has a phone but it's our old iPhone 6 with the SIM card removed that just has music and education apps installed on it), the app did NOT work correctly, even though the phone is running the current iOS version. However, I put it on my iPhone 8 and had NO issues finding it, installing it or using it. Considering our 6 year old can and does use my phone by herself to use and learn about various places around the globe, it seems to be designed to work pretty easily for most people.
So I highly recommend it. I was a little skeptical about the whole "globe with no countries" thing that I've also seen some people complain about. I'm definitely not into new-age education (in fact I'm a college business professor), but I don't have a problem with it. I think the globe would be too busy if it had all the country lines AND the pictures on it designed to captivate kids attention. And when you use the app to learn about a place, you can see country flags and whatnot. Maybe in a future version it can show you the country boundaries if you want to see them, which would be nice.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2023Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseBought this to help my 5 year old learn geography. Here are my thoughts after using it for several months:
Pros:
- Interactive app brings globe to life - The AR component makes learning about animals, culture, and geography fun through games, sounds, and interactive elements. My kids are captivated.
- Appealing visuals - The illustrated animals and environments on the globe look great and draw the kids in. - Vibrant colors and cute creatures get their attention.
- Expansive content - With so many places and animals to explore, there is a ton of information for them to discover. Enough to keep them learning for months.
- Games reinforce lessons - Activities like feeding animals their preferred foods reinforce what they learn about habitats and diets. Very clever.
- Passport sticker book - The included passport and stickers encourage them to engage and "travel" to different places. A creative bonus.
- Works for range of ages - Older kids get more from the detailed content. Versatile for siblings.
Cons:
- App can be glitchy - We've encountered some tech issues getting it to sync properly, especially in low light. When it works, it works wonderfully.
- Typos and errors - I've noticed some spelling and grammar errors in the app content. Needs a bit better proofing.
- Country boundaries not shown - The globe itself is missing country lines. Would be nice to toggle those on via the app for context.
Overall, the Orboot AR globe was a decent educational toy buy. The integrated app makes interacting with the globe fun and dynamic. I would recommend this educational toy. Hope this helps.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2025Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseI bought this for my grandkids as a Christmas gift and it is a very nice way to get them interested in learning. Very happy with purchase and will order future products. Highly recommend this for early school ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing STEM toy for kids!
Style: Orboot EarthVerified PurchaseThe media could not be loaded.
The toy comes with a really cute globe that has pictures of various animals and monuments instead of the traditional country borders (bonus - really cool room decor). Once you install an app on your phone/tablet, you allow access to your camera and it automatically synchs with the globe when it registers the little stars on the globe. Various things will pop up on the screen in a virtual reality simulation. The child can move around the globe and will view different things depending on what part of the world they are hovering over. It’s the coolest thing ever - I was so impressed when I saw it!
You can explore animals, monuments, cultures, food, flags and much more! Your child can click on the images that pops up and it brings them into another screen that is sort of like an encyclopedia with various facts and little games.
I like that this is an interactive game and is educational, so it doesn’t feel as though he’s just blindly sitting behind a screen; he’s actually learning!
The only thing I would caution is to ensure your tablet or phone is compatible with the device before purchasing as the app may not work on some older models.
Definitely a great educational toy for kids (I’d say around 4 is a great age to start).
