Where to buy in Singapore
We do not supply this one. XGO has no authorised Singapore distributor and no local pricing we could find, and we hold no supply relationship with the maker — so ordering through us would cost more than going direct while adding no warranty or support. It is sold from shop.xgorobot.com, and the micro:bit version through ELECFREAKS. Worth knowing before you buy: with no local channel, a warranty claim or a spare part means shipping back to China at your cost.
We keep this page because the comparison is still useful.

Overview
The XGO-Rider is billed as the world's first desktop wheel-legged robot with AI — a palm-sized, two-wheel self-balancing robot that stays upright on any surface. An ESP32 controller pairs with a Raspberry Pi CM4 (or BBC micro:bit) edition; a 5 MP camera, dual microphones and a speaker let it see, hear and talk. All-metal bus servos and IMU feedback give agile, omnidirectional wheel-legged movement. The CM4 version runs Python, Blockly and ROS with on-device AI vision and ChatGPT.
