Love mine! I've gone over 200 miles, and it's really a great little transporter. TONS of compliments! I use it to get groceries at Walmart, and it has shortened my shopping time significantly! It's just FUN to ride around and go places with, and I've never had an issue with it. Money well spent!
I bought two. Downgraded both to firmware 1.1.7 based on comments in a user forum I found. Over three weeks I've got over 125 miles logged. These devices are amazing. In my community (Oklahoma City, OK, USA) the ADA act and matching federal funding has improved all sidewalks and street crossings with ADA compliant ramps and street crossing buttons. I can go almost anywhere and stay on the sidewalk. 13 miles, up and down hills, across major streets without ever stepping off the MiniPro. After the first few miles riding the MiniPro it becomes intuitive and I truly do not even think about maneuvering the device. It was easier to learn to ride this than to ride a bike. As long as riders are conscientious of pedestrians and don't create a negative perception by tricking, or speeding around when pedestrians are present this device will become the new urban standard for commuting.
How dose it compare to the last generation full size segway? Everyone is comparing this to a overboard but some of us have been riding a full size i2 for a very long time and the cost of replacing batteries has become too much. Never rode a hoverboard and this is a scaled down model of the i2 or at least look like it. Will it preform like it? Lost weight capasity of 25 lbs but besides needing to own a smart phone I do not see much diffferance beyonde range being shorter.
Hi. I know so many people mistakenly think Segways are another "hooverboard" but they are not. They are the original "Personal Transporters". They came into being many, many years before 'hooverboards' came into existence. Personal Transporters.
Yeah, but this new product from Segway doesn't predate the "hoverboards". Also, this uses an internal gyro stabilization system where the hoverboards do not. Also, this is from the Segway company which was bought out by a Chinese company. So who knows where the QA will go.
+Carlos T they contributed to Segway's demise I believe with thier own mini.. this is a great product. let's hope Segway's stay that way but with more "affordable" offerings like the Minipro. :)
Just ordered from Amazon for Tuesday delivery. I hope it is as good as the reviews say. I don't walking, so I don't get out and about as much as I would like.
What would happen if you bring the little turn thing In between your legs higher up so like in between your thighs? Wouldn't that make it easier to turn?
Love my miniPro like everyone else here!! San Francisco bikes lanes and back streets is where you'll find me....just passed my Mustang Gt in mileage this last six months as its just a better way to get around this city.
I have one and love mine. Very easy to learn and lots of fun for the whole family and the safety features are great Segway did a great job making this, I highly recommend it!
This thing is 10x better if you order the handlebars for it you can get it off there site. I have a video using the handlebars once I added them never went back to the knee staring, works like a charm :) They cost an extra 185$ but be sure to get the one with the kick stand.
Great cam shots. It's a miniature of the Segway PT, or specifically the Segway i2 (which I own), hence the lean-steer technology modified for the knees. So it's not a hoverboard, but if that's what makes it sell and get popular, cool.
Pretty sure they retail listed 1299$USD but on the amazon link in description you can get them for 999$USD (300 off ) Idk if they're worth it but definitely cool!
Segway invented the tech. that the "hover boards" use. This is way better than the "hover boards" because this is the real thing, made by the company that invented the technology. Calling it a hover board is an insult. It's a personal Segway.
Quieromuchachas yeah, i tried first models of segway selfbalancing vehicle in early begining of 2000s. The cost of standard segway was astronomic - about $ 6'000 - 10'000.
I'm glad you're aware of the fire hazards of older models Jared. I was worried when I heard many of them had been recalled as I knew you owned a hoverboard. Was your red one from one of the lines that was recalled? Did you have to throw it away? D: Glad you found a new one anyway!
The main pro I can see from this is the fact that the base is one piece... on normal hoverboard if you turn on of the sides slightly at speed your coming off, no negotiating your eating pavement...
The main problem is, all these standart hoverboards are way to WEAK and underpowered (not in speed, but in torque), they have two 300 watt engines which are weak and get completely stuck when you try to ride into a field, or over grass like you did in this vid. How many watts does the engines of this Segway have? This Segway drives PERFECTLY over grass, stones, etc. without any torque problems.
I dont like the tit back safety feature on this thing very dangerous to use it on bike lane. sometime you try to keep up with same speed as the bikers and than it just kick in and try to make you not slow down but try to come to an almost stop and than you can start moving again that is very dangerous I think.
in germany i don't see anyone with this board...maybe it does not come above the big ocean :D but it looks like fun. great Video jared. you filmed it in your dads room :D
If this were released before the hoverboard, this would have gained more traction (no pun intended) in the market. The hoverboard dimishes the marketability of ninebot's product. The negative experiences, press, and association with the hoverboard is what has kept me from buying this, even at the Amazon Prime Deal day price of $700.

"Turning does not feel like NASA..."
Thumbs UP for Ellie's honest review. ♥
I don't even know what that's supposed to mean.
Awesome Brady you'll absolutely LOVE it!!!!❤️
Which company segway is best please tell me sir
Do you have to be connected to blue tooth every time you ride it?
I have a question which is how you lock it when you go away? Because we can’t carry it everywhere and all the time.
cutest baby ever!!!! and good to see someone go off flat pavement and show going over the grass and rocks... nice vid
Can you ask them to use gel foot pads? As you probably figured out by now, standing on them for a half hour, or sometimes less, can be pretty painful!
How dose it compare to the last generation full size segway?

What do they retail at? Are these released in UK yet?

+Feint thier the company who crashed Segway and then eventually bought them out. so far QA is great, and Segway is still based in WA, USA.
+Carlos T they contributed to Segway's demise I believe with thier own mini.. this is a great product. let's hope Segway's stay that way but with more "affordable" offerings like the Minipro. :)
I love that you got to do this and ride it before someone else stole your idea like they did last time.
Just ordered from Amazon for Tuesday delivery. I hope it is as good as the reviews say. I don't walking, so I don't get out and about as much as I would like.
So Ron, 2-years on, happy with purchase? I’m getting mine July 2019.
Today through Amazon Prime day, get the Segway miniPRO for $699.00. This is almost half off and ends tonight. This thing is great!
What would happen if you bring the little turn thing In between your legs higher up so like in between your thighs? Wouldn't that make it easier to turn?
I hear that it doesn't charge properly is that true before I purchase one
How much do you guys make on RUclips? Can you do a video on it? Like how you started and what not. I'm really interested in starting RUclips.
Love my miniPro like everyone else here!! San Francisco bikes lanes and back streets is where you'll find me....just passed my Mustang Gt in mileage this last six months as its just a better way to get around this city.
for professional Pokemon go players only
Lmao
get out
+skypex 123 the fuck, did you know gen 2 is out
No, I am so FED UP from walking, walking, endless walking everywhere - I love these little awesome rides, but never tried Pokemon *ggg
Lol
I nominated you guys for streamy awards along with daily bumps and Cullen and katie
I have this and it's amazing for offroading
still using it?
Same
I have a black mini pro
Is it Bluetooth?
is it the same with the xiaomi one?
Oh, and drop the air in the tires down to about 25psi (if your maybe 190 try 35psi).
How much did you get paid
I have one and love mine. Very easy to learn and lots of fun for the whole family and the safety features are great Segway did a great job making this, I highly recommend it!

at that point get a bike instead🤦🏽♂️
Great cam shots.

The foot place is soft right
Pretty sure they retail listed 1299$USD but on the amazon link in description you can get them for 999$USD (300 off )
Idk if they're worth it but definitely cool!
Today only theyre 700
phototristan Amazon Prime Day?
Yeah. Subscribe to my channel as I'll be reviewing it there.
They were $700 on Amazon yesterday. I was able to get a refund of $300 from them because I bought it a few days ago. I also ordered another one.
599.00 right now
than man I really didn't know how to set up a segway now a know😁
4:11 "Pneumatic" is the word you're struggling (and failing) to think of. Or "actually tyres with rubber and air in them" as you put it! 😝
where do you put the gas?
4:32 It feels like your running at an incredible rate Harry. LOL

Kamen’s brilliant invention changes the game for us mobility-challenged...
Does it catch on fire
THE_THIN_BOSS
No. It has a temp monitor also to make sure battery isn't over stressed.
Did u toss the segway
There is not in a 10 inches wheels version ¡¡
jared where did you get it at
How much for this model?
I'm glad you're aware of the fire hazards of older models Jared. I was worried when I heard many of them had been recalled as I knew you owned a hoverboard. Was your red one from one of the lines that was recalled? Did you have to throw it away? D: Glad you found a new one anyway!
Allie G
This looks very cool Jared!
The main pro I can see from this is the fact that the base is one piece... on normal hoverboard if you turn on of the sides slightly at speed your coming off, no negotiating your eating pavement...
Used two of these yesterday
on 1:49 i cant belive he threw the hiverboarf like its a rubbish picture
How much are those.
$1K on Amazon from Segway.
I agree with you Jared
yes!! :) love this! hover boards died easy also! nice video. now I want to try this!
The main problem is, all these standart hoverboards are way to WEAK and underpowered (not in speed, but in torque), they have two 300 watt engines which are weak and get completely stuck when you try to ride into a field, or over grass like you did in this vid.

in germany i don't see anyone with this board...maybe it does not come above the big ocean :D but it looks like fun. great Video jared. you filmed it in your dads room :D
das kommt davon, dass es hier leider verboten ist :(
+Nina Klapper Ich habs hier schon gesehen
+Lina B. ach wie cool. das würde ich auch mal gerne ausprobieren
You have it on German Amazon for sale.. :)
+Vlad Exo oh cool. thank you!
What's the weight compacity
Halo Board is the best hoverboard you can get! Segway is actually going out of business lol
Onde você comprou?
The wheel aren't filled with air... if they sent you this to test, perhaps you'd at least read the specs...
Hey my mistake, it's another model that has the wheels with no air.
The only good thing about this is the distance and anti theft feature.
That looks like fun. I want to try it.
Dang Man !!!! great review !!!!

Wat is the app
jared,, how muçh it çost ?
Manuel Novas 599.00 right now
Lemony Snicket so calling it a stupid hoverboard.lolol
Whoever thought they should be called "hoverboards" is severely mistaken.
Casey niestat
He's the guy
melted cheetah
I can understand calling the swegway a hoverboard but not a segway or mini one
The public is naive when it comes to products and the name hoverboard just stuck. He is using name for educational purposes.
I Got one yesterday
I really think everyone on youtube starts their stand-up pieces with "What's up, everyone?"
I like this one better it seems so much safer
I have two one for my sister and one for me
you can get them from best buy in the store now or order it on Amazon, both places now for $599.00
I don’t like it being called
a hoverboard but nice review‼️
Hey Jared just wanted to say I love watching your vlogs and vids I love you and your family !
U should go live sometime
Isn't that thing phone control
This looks so sick
Stop at 0:00
Great video Jared! I ALWAYS WATCH u and Ellie
kha sa milaga hoverboard
Jared you're the best! love watching your videos, greetings from Peru c:
My friend Emily has this its so much easier
A bit more different though
I like it, but I don't like the steering...
feels like a gimmick.
Just an random douche and the normal boards dont...?
Hi jared
definitely gonna get one within this year...thank you so much for this vid.
Great video, Jared! This video makes me want one of these so bad!
Good Video 😊
looks fun
Great video!
It’s called a mini Segway not a Hoverboard
exactly
i thought you were supposed to sit on the long thingy
AmarThePokémonTrainer 2005 same
Lol... that could be very uncomfortable... or pleasurable depending on your preferences...
AmarThePokémonTrainer 2005 )
so so cool like how it comes to u
Thanks man
Could I walk my dog while riding this?
A friend of mine has one and does agility with it..
If you want to kill your dog then do it .
@@huyget I do it everynight and he loves it
