“I bought this for my mom. She loves battling the AI and she uses it to teach kids chess. The kids like the lights and the guidance shown on the board.”

“While the ChessUp production delays were disappointing, the staff at Bryght Labs did a great job of updating the backers in a detailed and timely manner. So far I have thoroughly enjoyed my new board. I can't wait until the game analysis function is released and they start rolling out tutorials!”

“Love this board. Completely worth the wait. I have been learning and so have my children. My 8-year-old is asking almost daily if I want to play a game with him. Fantastic build and excited to see how the app updates continue to improve things.”

“This board is a great equalizer for me to share my love of chess with my sons. The assist helps them miss early blunders and actually enjoy the game. And then they get to beat me sometimes and what’s more satisfying than embarrassing your dad. I’ve had some odd behavior on occasion but overall it’s been a great experience.”

“I'm fairly new to chess. In the short time I've been using Chess Up it's improved my game. It's interesting to observe the moves that the AI makes. Excellent way to learn.”

“The board is great when it works well, and it was pretty intuitive for me to set up the board to play at a level about equal to my own. The Android app is a bit of a mess, and the board can go haywire sometimes, but once they get these issues resolved I think they really have something here.”

“Overall, ChessUp is great to have in my hands after so long. The board is well-made and the concept of touch-sensitive pieces interacting with a light-enabled board is genius. There is a lot of potential still untapped - and that is why I deducted one star. It's nice the hardware is delivered, but so much of the opportunity lies in the software. Integration with online chess platforms, much more lessons and educational resources that leverage the unique board functionality, etc. Hoping to see that sooner rather than later. Also shipping was a bit of a challenge since I was told the board had shipped and kept asking why UPS showed no progress, only to be told that it takes time for UPS to update. In the end, it turned out my board was not shipped at all - this would've been resolved faster if the company had listened to me more seriously at the start.”

“Didnt know id have to buy a whole new phone to use the app for my chessboard. Please make the app compatible with software that was present when the pre orders were up. Doesnt make sense to make the app only work with the newest software.”

“Partnering with Bryght Labs has been an invaluable experience overall. Their launch of the ChessUp this year has been an incredibly smooth rollout and has allowed us to further grow our product assortment with a truly beautiful Chess Computer. The ChessUp is one of the most feature-rich Chess Computers on the market today and we are proud to add it to our product catalog!”

“Really loving the board, fantastic design and I've been using it a lot. The only problem I can find comes in connecting to lichess to play online. Even when I choose all random, I am always assigned to the black pieces. 100 percent of the time. Also wish that I could play my regular 10 minute games instead of 15x10 or 5x5. I don't see the option for 10 minutes.”

“While the board, the pieces, and the carry bag are all very nice, the Android version of the app is unreliable at best, and to be honest, when I ordered this 2 years ago I was playing a lot of chess and thought this would help improve my otb game. Now I don't play much anymore and I don't think this board will change that.”

“I will have to admit that this ChessUp board is a bit too complicated for me. I lent it to my daughter to figure it out. I very much appreciated all the extras such as the carry case.”
