Contixo R3 Smart Puppy Robot Dog vs Voice & Remote Control Robot Dog

Buy the Contixo R3 for a younger child who wants a cuddly, touch-driven puppy with lights, music and a simple remote. Buy the Voice & Remote Control Robot Dog for an older kid who wants speed, voice commands and 30+ tricks. The Contixo is lighter and cheaper-feeling, with a smaller trick set and a proprietary battery. The Voice & Remote dog has mecanum wheels for sideways drift, three infrared sensors, a removable rechargeable pack and a longer control range, and its owners rate it higher on fewer reviews.

• Choose the Contixo R3 if your child is 3 to 5, likes pet-style play, and you want touch response, LED lights and music in a light toy that moves room to room.
• Choose the Voice & Remote Control Robot Dog if your child is 5 or older and wants voice commands, 30+ actions, sideways drift and a rechargeable battery that swaps out.
