Short answers
Which is cheaper, Loona or EMO?
EMO. In the US, EMO costs from $279, Loona from $499. In Europe, Loona costs from €549 at KEYi. LivingAI sells EMO in US dollars and ships from outside the EU: converted, that is from about €248, plus shipping.
What is the main difference?
Where they live. Loona drives around the home on wheels, weighs about 1.1 kg and has a 2.4-inch LCD face. EMO is palm-sized and explores your desk, with 4 drop sensors, touch and a ToF distance sensor.
Which one is smarter?
On paper, Loona: KEYi names a 5 TOPS processor with a co-processor, EMO has a neural co-processor with up to 1.2 TOPS. Both recognise faces, and Loona holds conversations based on ChatGPT.
Which one runs longer on a charge?
Loona plays for about 2 hours per charge. For EMO the spec sheet gives no runtime. It charges on a wireless skateboard dock, and the Go Home version returns to its station by itself.
Can I buy EMO in Europe?
Yes, from LivingAI’s own store, which ships from outside the EU. Orders ship about two weeks after purchase, and the shipping policy quotes 14 to 30 days in transit. The store doesn’t say how import VAT and duty are handled.
