Which one to buy

Choose Loona Petbot if

you want conversation, a camera, face recognition and a robot that moves through the room.

Choose Eilik if

you want none of that: no account, no Wi-Fi, no app, just a small thing on the desk that reacts when you touch it.

Be clear about what Eilik is not. It does not understand a word you say; it answers to touch and to its own moods, and its servo is loud enough to notice in a quiet room. Loona is the opposite trade: it hears you and answers, but the chat needs an internet connection, and about two hours of moving is all you get per charge.
