It's their version of the Adidas Boost, a far superior shoe line.
Lightweight neutral trainer according to this guy. Sounds like a decent shoe.

Not really. Rubberized EVA is different that what Adidas is using.
The boost compound is a different and limited with flexibility in compound differences.
React is far more versatile. Boost alone proves to be somewhat unstable and has to get a rim of EVA to stabilize it.
As Nike develops this compound and range of shoes over time Adidas will boost will fade unless they can do something with beyond what they have shown us to date.
Seriously? WTF?
It's their copy of a Hoka One One.
Another review, not as favorable, but positive;

No. They are copying the New Balance Fresh Foam technology.
Nike copies great ideas.
Nike Reacts...
first run in them this morning. even with the new shoe effect, they were really nice, almost fun.
even upsizing 1/2 size, that upper is too tight for casual wear on my feet.

Both wrong.
Read the "Boost-ish TPU" thread.
Boosts are too dang heavy and high offset.
Saw the reacts at finish line last night I like the aerodynamic at the back of the shoe.
The material up front on the bottom looks interesting seems I like Nikes emphasis to hit the heel and forefoot with hardened rubber leaving midfoot softer to cut weight.
Cant see it being anymore than a walking or hobby jog shoe doesnt seem like it is a racer any distance
Boosts are too expensive so I’ll buy less. The weight of trainers aren’t an issue for me. Makes the spikes feel lighter.
