✎ Editor’s Note
To become the next Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, or Bill Gates, you must start with this—the smart robot XKBOT. It looks like a small car, but it can follow lines, avoid obstacles, and more importantly, children can freely control and program it using an app.
First, let’s understand its components. The XKBOT consists of more than a dozen small parts, designed for tool-free assembly. With just a screwdriver, it can be easily assembled in 10 minutes, making it suitable for children aged 3-12 (it should be noted that children under 6 need parental guidance to complete it). This allows children to experience the joy of hands-on learning while enhancing their practical skills, creating a fun time filled with endless creativity for both kids and parents.

How cool and powerful is that?! Now, the question arises: with so many features, will it run out of battery quickly? You can rest assured, the XKBOT is equipped with a 2000mAh lithium battery, and can be charged anytime and anywhere through the USB charging port located at the bottom left of the circuit board. Under normal conditions, it takes 2 hours to charge, allowing for 8-16 hours of playtime.
