Works as described.

Seems to work as described. The paint wears off VERY quickly. Literally a few minutes after I started playing with this I saw that the paint was starting to wear off. I stopped playing with him so he wouldn't look worse. The silver paint where I touch it is noticeably thinner and shows a dark spot in the center where you touch it the most. But I connected it to my phone via Bluetooth and it did what it said it would do. Made calls, listened to music, etc. The real fun started when I connected it to an Alexa Show, Dot, or Alexa Plus device. Using activated Star Trek apps on Alexa was a lot of fun! Alexa beam me! Photon torpedoes, phasers! Warp Drive! The sound effects played on my Alexa devices and the comb! With my point connected to my 9.1 surround system and lots of bass in my chair, I felt like a captain! Have fun! Had a good time! Named my DOT "computer" and the fun continued. (God, I need life!) The battery drains fast, but don't you judge it by the first charge, first charge? 15 minutes use, second charge? 20 minutes use, third charge? 25 minutes of use, fourth/fifth/etc. charge 30-40 minutes maximum usage if you use it sparingly. Music playback lasts about an hour, using it with Alexa will likely drain it quicker as it's always listening and constantly connected to BlueTooth. You have to touch it to activate the link icon's microphone or I believe it will go even faster. Cell phone connection was acceptable but we only talked about it for about 30 minutes. The phone had a few hours of standby time, but it was designed for short calls when it came time to use it. All in all a fun toy.
