In its 26 October capture, the maker recommended Android 12 or later and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or better, and listed iOS 17 or later. Lower-specification phones might still run the app with lag; flip phones and tablets were not recommended.

TangibleFuture LOOI
A desktop robot base that uses your phone for interaction. It suits playful experiments, but needs a compatible phone you can spare for it.

Three proposed tasks. Ten attempts at each suitable task, with the outcome, time and human help recorded. Confirm the exact robot, software and safe setup first. These tasks are not evidence that this robot can do them.

We will record the outcome, time, control mode, human help, safety stops, exact hardware and software, conditions and full video.
Proposed attempt; not run Only proceed if the exact unit supports the task and the setup is suitable. Keep remote control, scripted operation and autonomous operation separate. A completed attempt alone does not prove autonomy.What each square will show

Name the control mode, surface, object or prompt and every intervention. Ten attempts are an initial result, not proof of long-term reliability.

Capability and readiness are separate. These written findings are not a numerical rating or a physical test.

What can it actually do?
The specific maker claims and any independent observations are listed below. We have not run our own task tests on this robot.
Read the source-based assessmentReadiness
Could you use it in real life?
Intended use: Phone-based desktop interaction. Dependable everyday use has not been established by the evidence reviewed. The dedicated compatible phone is part of the system. Charging, heat and edge behaviour need testing with the actual phone.
Read the source-based assessmentA clear limit
This is a research profile based on the sources below, not a hands-on test. Maker claims remain attributed to the maker; they do not prove repeatable performance in your home or workplace.
02 / Can it actually do it?
The claims, with their context.
The wording below keeps each source’s limits. A demonstration, a maker’s claim and a repeatable real-world result are different things.
The maker describes MagSafe wireless charging for iPhone 12 onwards and an included magnetic ring for attaching non-magnetic phones. Verify the actual phone and case; the ring alone does not establish charging compatibility.
Source 1The product page lists tracking-camera functions, motion games, reminders and a standby clock. These are advertised functions, not measured accuracy or reliability results.
Source 1On 29 October the maker listed 400 g for model L-01, while the retained earlier figure was 385 g. The reason for the discrepancy and exact unit revision are unknown.
Source 2The maker’s 29 October page instead recommends Android 12 or later with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ or higher performance. It says some lower-performance phones may run the app with lag. Confirm the exact phone and app version; this is not a tested compatibility guarantee.

Setup, support and daily use
04 / Living with it
Right robot, right expectations.
What ownership could involve
Decide whether LOOI will use your everyday phone or a spare device. That choice changes the real cost and how often the robot is available. Check the phone’s exact app support, case clearance and attachment before purchase, then test whether notifications, calls and charging interrupt normal interaction. Do not interpret local-storage marketing as a completed privacy review: app permissions, optional online services and current policy need checking together. The maker’s warranty headline is not a verified repair route for every country. Current shipping, landed price and support duration remain unresolved.
Support, software and repairs
Check the exact phone against the compatibility list; Android 12 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1-level performance are recommended. Foldables and tablets are not recommended. Language availability differs between iOS and Android. The page advertises a one-year warranty; retain proof of purchase and confirm the regional repair route. A phone is separate hardware, not included in the robot’s quoted weight.
Questions still open
What needs checking before you decide.
- No real-phone performance, thermal, charging or edge-recovery test has been assessed.
- The recommended phone list is a compatibility claim, not a guarantee for every device or case.
- Software updates may change behaviour; record app and phone versions in each future task assessment.
- The maker’s captured compatibility and weight descriptions differ by date; neither source establishes which physical revision or app release explains the difference.
