The self-contained headset is wireless and generates some decent holographic effects. Will run on even some older iPhones and Android phones. A good handful of challenges and game modes. Comes with its own lightsaber hilt

One of the best AR experiences yet
Packed full of Star Wars fan service
Fun

The editors didn't like
Expensive
Needs even more games
Doesn't always track your movements or the lightsaber very well. Lightsaber sometimes drops up out of sync. Requires a phone. Inserting and setting up the phone isn't easy or quick. Who knows if this will ever run other games

No proof it'll be used beyond Jedi Challenges, A lot of money for a single use
Now comes the tough question, is it worth it? It's undeniable that Star Wars: Jedi Challenges is a lot of fun, but asking £250 for the privilege is a bit much. If Disney and Lenovo had managed to bring the price down to £100, or even £150, it would be a d...
Abstract: We've always wondered what it would be like to have a proper Lightsaber duel. Or maybe play a game of Holochess.Thanks to the joys of augmented reality, you can now do both. Lenovo and Disney have partnered to create an AR experience using your phone, a...
At £249 in the UK this is a fairly pricey experience for what could be seen as three games you might tire from over time. Two-player Lightsaber duels might add to that, but that requires two complete kits - a big outlay for a family, for example.However...

Lenovo's AR helmet for phones feels like a clever mini-HoloLens for Star Wars fans, but as a standalone headset with no other software, it's a tough sell...

Great concept, Mixed reality works well
Complicated to set up, Keeping three devices charged, Fun initially, but wears off
Star Wars: Jedi Challenges works if you think of it as a casual entertainment session rather than a full blown game. It could be a lot more fun if it supported a multiplayer mode - think of all the crazy Star Wars-themed parties where you could duel again...
Though some people may argue that one exclusive app isn't enough to justify the Mirage's $200 asking price, after my demo I can't help but be excited about it. The Mirage is one of the first products I've seen in quite some time where every journo has uni...
Abstract: Playing Jedi is the dream for many Star Wars fans. For rather obvious reasons, it's also something that's totally unobtainable bar donning a robe and waving a stick around. But now, thanks to Lenovo's latest partnership with Disney, you can jump right int...

Fun motioncontrolled duels, Often looks quite nice, Great use of Star Wars license
Tracking issues persist, Multiple devices to charge, Holochess is boring
Luckily, Star Wars: Jedi Challenges hits more than it misses. Despite its technical hitches, Lenovo's AR bundle is a novel and entertaining digital-meets-physical experience for franchise die-hards. At the new lower MSRP of $150, it's still a bit pric...
