5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Dartboard - now online too.

D. · 8 August 2022

The media could not be loaded. I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews on what is in my opinion a fantastic way to enjoy darts.As you can see from the video, I've set up my ipad on brackets to the side of the dartboard and connect them both via Bluetooth. I've found that the bluetooth connection is 99.9% perfect in that location, however if you place the ipad further away it can disconnect, also make sure you stick some good quality batteries in the dartboard, as when they run low, connection drops off (as you'd expect).Having been to Flight Club venues around London a few times, I researched the possibility of setting up something similar at home, and found this. You can spend £2000 on a Flight Club set up with the cameras if you want, but I thought for under £200 this has to be worth a go, and I'm glad I did. Yes, it's not as good as Flight Club, it doesn't video me and show it on a TV when I throw a match winning dart, but this is perfect for a home set up.I've played several all night darts sessions with people of varying skills, and the app adds a huge amount of fun to it. If you're playing against someone who isn't a regular darts player it adds even more fun for them as you're not worrying about maths in a game of 501, and the other fun games on the app such as Cricket or Halve It means that non-darts people can hit the board and still have a laugh.Yes the numbers are plastic, yes the outside of the board doesn't register as a miss, and yes the odd numbers are blue and not green... but none of that matters when you're playing with mates and having a beer.On a regular dartboard, practising on your own is dull, with the app on this smartboard you can play against the computer, and now with the app update you can play online, all of which is much more fun and better for practice.They could do with a few more games in the app, currently only six, maybe do what all the other apps do and charge a small fee for premium additional games, hopefully that will happen one day.If you're looking for a dartboard at home for fun with your mates, and to enhance your practice when playing darts alone, look no further than this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not bother

Expensive and inferior product, numbers are plastic and constantly fall off or break. Darts do not consistently connect so not fit for purpose. Return window is only one month, not long enough to assess product

4.0 out of 5 stars Really good but let’s itself down on the basics

M.H. · 11 May 2020

Overall very happy, the board function is great and I haven’t seen any issues in terms of recording scores etc - think it has missed 1 dart over the hundreds of legs I have played so far.Board - let’s itself down with the little things, the plastic numbers are poor and fly off - I have replaced with the wire number ring from a previous dartboard. You need to purchase the ‘wall spacers’ separately to keep the board nice and sturdy and prevent movement - these gripes are only minor but you would expect them as standard given the cost.App - both equally good/bad in equal measure. The functionality that is there works well, the games are good and are good fun for practice sessions etc BUT there are basics that you would expect that are just not present:- When playing an 01 game the app doesn’t track/display the number of legs/set won or lost - this is really basic and can’t believe it isn’t available.- Stats, when you have a board that records score/position of dart in relation to target number etc then you would expect a number of useful (and some not so useful) statistics - this is severely lacking, you get PPD - doesn’t even track your historical performance in the other non 01 games.Overall I am very happy with the boards functionality in terms of recording the score. I am a little disappointed with the quality of the board itself given the cost. I am massively disappointed with the app, there is so much basic functionality missing before you even start to think about the possibility of online competitions etc.The last app update was over a year ago since I don’t expect to much more in the space unfortunately.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent

D.H. · 20 January 2025

Excellent board so far and connected easily to the Scorebuddy app. Darts supplied once put in the magnetic hole work easily for all the night I played it. Just re-magnetised next time. Only thing is I’ve tried my own steel tip darts and they can be hit or miss, times 2 of them work perfect and 3rd one just doesn’t. May work better if you use the likes of a screwdriver magnetiser which is more powerful (but I have not tried that). All in all I’m pleased, the score is accurate and makes 501 etc great for people who can’t be bothered with maths like me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the £160 - £200

N.G. · 15 January 2021

I bought this 2 months ago and played on it every night.Brilliant idea but has a lot of glitches like darts not registering and the only way I know toput the score in is by stabbing the dart in the number that's not registered and sometimesrandom scores will register when you haven't thrown a dart it can get really frustrating.The app needs updating so it works on other devices and lets you put scores in when they don'tregister and it should let you have more players for other games.It should be able to connect to ac powerPluss side is when its working proper you don't have to work your scores out it takes each dartoff as you throw it and you can enjoy your game of darts and have fun with the other games.It does make the game of darts easier with scoring and with what number your dart is in.Not worth the £160 - £200.It just needs updating (improving) to make it worth that sort of money.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY.

DO NOT BUY. Its inaccurate, glitches, the app is rubbish and floored. The games as worthless. Cost 4 times as much as other boards and it is only quarter of the quality, connectivity barely works but worst of all they break all the time. My second one has now packed up and will not connect. Sent to unicorn and they say it broken but have to run via Bolo. Brilliant. Used 10 time and broken. If I could give less than 1 I would. DO NOT BUY.

Absolut Genial

Wir hatten diese mit voll Garantie bestellt da wir meinten es steckt viel Technik drin, per Magnet zählt die Scheibe, Pfeile kann man an der Dartscheibe aufladen wenn diese mal die Magnetisierung nach läßt, nur kurz in dem dafür vorgesehenen Loch halten dann merkt man Magnet kontakt fertig.ACHTUNG: Neu gekaufte Metallspitzen haben eine leichte schwarze Farbe die sich beim werfen auf eine Scheibe leicht abreibt, bei dieser Scheibe muss man die NEUE Spitzen leicht an schleifen sonst Magnetisieren diese sich nicht.Wir haben die Scheibe jetzt schon eine weile und sie macht genau das was sie soll, keine Fehler beim Rechnen erkennt jeden Pfeil Wurf, kann ich nur empfehlen

muy buena

muy buena, profesional

Bien mais...

t. · 22 April 2019

Produit vraiment top mais...Le lettrage aurait dû être tinté dans la masse cela éviterait la casseLe bouton pour le joueur suivant est très mal placé, à un centimètre du double 15 on tir souvent dedans ce qui occasionne des trous dans le bouton et abîme du coup le ressort...L'application est vraiment sommaire, le joueur suivant s'affiche durant de trop longue seconde en plein milieu de l'écran, qui quand on joue au criquet empêche de voir le tableau...Le fait que l'on ne puisse pas l'utiliser en mode paysage est aussi penibleLe fait que seulement 4 joueurs peuvent joué est dommage.Mis à part tout ça le bluetooth fonctionne très bien, l'appareil est vite reconnuLa cible fait le job mais avec tout ces détails en moins elle serait superbe !!!

Accurate scoring / no online open play?

M.K. · 2 March 2023

I was surprised at how accurate it is keeping score and being able to tell where the dart sticks and not a neighboring number. Downside is it doesn’t recognize bounce outs very well and absolutely never records a miss on the outer perimeter of the board (easily corrected on the app).I was hoping there would be more of a “community” forum or some Lobby on the app to play against fellow Smartboard owners around the world. It appears you have to go and open up a game then provide the specific game ID to your would be opponent in order to take advantage of the online play. Having only used in the Local setting on the app, I can not say if the online scoring is as accurate ut I do t see why it wouldn’t be.Overall you get a better than average real dart board (not plastic squares / soft tip) that will keep accurate scores and match details / average's for a decent price. The 2 sets of darts that come with it seem more suited to be in a child’s first dart set. They are coated in a type of rubber and are just strange looking.If the online playability was better (or just existing) this would be 5 starts all day.

Quality

The board comes with detachable numbers which unfortunately fall off and get lost.
