Wow! This is one smart robot. Revolutionary digital technology means easy, precise regulation of ball speed, wait time, and landing location. Normal Mode gives you simple manual control over each function while in Drill Mode, you can run any of the 64 drills stored on the controller. Use PC Mode to create and save drills using a simple interface, then run those drills direct from your PC. Setup Mode makes it easy to calibrate motors to a set standard and select your desired language. Intelligent design also allows selection of favored hand so drills run correctly for right-handers and left-handers alike. You can even tell your Robo-Pong 2050 to throw balls for 5 minutes, and it will automatically calculate how many balls will be thrown in that time.
"After training with the Canadian Olympic Team for 3 years, I know what an effective training session consists of. The Robo-Pong 2050 can perform nearly every drill that a top training partner can perform."

Bought it nearly 10 months ago and the result is that I have started defeating all those players who used to absolutely trash me 12 months back. It has 64 built in programs bit till date have used not more than 10 programs regularly. The variety of options in ball placement, spin, speed and timing available in all the programs is mind boggling. Getting your strokes perfect like fan zhendong's backhand flick on serves really ups your game. Increasing your stamina by playing with a robot which continuously recycles the balls through the catching net, means that you are continuously upgrading yourself. For players like me who started late, the newgy robo pong 2050 is a great way to catch up and start defeating players who have been playing for years. Match like sequences with serve, followed by different placed shots help in increasing match skills. On variable oscillation, the robo sends balls which help in increasing anticipation as you have very less warning as to where the ball will land. Am very happy with the robo pong 2050 and the way it is helping me improve my game
Pros: It's programmable and it comes with pre-programmed 64 drills. It is fairly consistent with its placement of the ball on the table.
Cons: It cannot impart backspin, sidespins & topspin automatically. You have to manually turn the head to get the respective spins.
My Verdict: I'm very satisfied with its performance so far and have not complaints about it.
Very good robot for basic exercises. For beginners a perfect training. For experts well for movement training and exercising special shots.
Very longliving.
