A very impressive simple drone, my first. Best fun from a piece of tech that I've had in years. Batteries last about 8 minutes [ came with 2 and a twin charger] and I have since bought another spare. Well built, fits in a pocket when folded. Lots of instruction videos online. Great Value.

This is an amazing drone. You can use the programmed functions or use your phone and guide it that way. It is very light and folds into the case perfectly. Easy to use and works amazingly well. Very stable for as light as it is. The pictures are so clear it is as if it is not moving at all. I learned the hard way that it does not work over water. It told me not to do it but I tried it anyway. It ended up getting wet but I sent it in to the Hover people to see if it could be fixed. They said once it is in water they cannot fix it but they amazingly refunded $350 even though it was my fault and I was able to order another one for the same amount. More than fair. Excellent customer service as they kept checking with me to see if there was anything I needed. I couldn't believe they refunded that much money as I paid $500 for it. Excellent product as long as you don't fly it over water. Great customer service. And mostly, it's fun!

Une petite révolution pour ce nouveau concept de caméra selfie, en mode action, il faudra que ce produit évolue ce qui semble chose faite avec le nouveau Hover Pro & pro Max, un bel avenir pour ce nouveau concept

The footage is fair, totally usable for social media or YouTube channel, it's not a professional drone but who cares that's not who's buying it. Exceeded my expectation as a videographer who uses higher end drones for work. This is perfect for what it's intended. Took it out of my pocket while hiking, and captured memories. Easy peasy :)

This Hover Air X1 is seriously awesome! It's everything I wanted and more.Pros:- Portable (Folds right up and fits in the pocket) - Super lightweight - Flying it is super easy. (Even kids can fly) - Pre-programmed flight pathsCons: - Flying time of approx 10 minutes seems less. Having spare charged batteries could help, also just keep in mind, you don't waste any time setting it up. The moment it takes off, it is in action :) - Flying restrictions - cannot fly over water/glass surfaces (and also avoid valleys) - No obstacle avoidance - Make sure you select an appropriate flight path considering your surroundings. - Low-light performance is not so great. But in sufficient light, it is awesome.Flying this drone is surprisingly easy, even kids can operate it. The app is super user-friendly, and there are pre-programmed flight paths that make getting cool shots a breeze. There's even a follow-me mode, which is amazing for capturing those epic adventure videos. The camera quality is no joke either - the HDR really makes the colors pop, and the video stabilization is mind-blowing. Video quality is amazing too!Speaking of amazing, gotta give a shoutout to the seller! Super quick to respond and provides solutions promptly. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is outstanding, I'm impressed with their professionalism. I highly recommend the seller for exceptional service and support.Honestly, I can't recommend the Hover X1 enough. It's the perfect little drone for anyone who wants to capture stunning aerial footage without a ton of hassle. It's portable, easy to fly, and takes incredible videos. Plus, if you run into any issues, the seller seems to be top-notch. If you're on the hunt for a fun and user-friendly drone, this is the one!If you have any doubts, then don't think twice. GO FOR IT!

Para aquellos que viajan solo es una excelente opción para hacer videos no es exactamente un dron, por qué tiene alcance y funciones limitadas a las de una cámara, el único detalle es el precio de las baterías que son muy caras

Oh, what a lovely little drone this is. I recently took the Hover Air X1 with me on a bicycle tour across Florida (around 800 miles over 3 weeks). Super light weight, compact size makes it an ideal drone for bicycle touring. And the pre-programmed modes are awesome for someone like me who is new to drones and didn't want to climb the learning curve, so to speak.I frequently used "hover", "follow me", "dolly track", and other (pre-programmed) modes to capture content I wanted to share with friends, family, and other bicycle tour enthusiasts. And once I discovered I could also manually control flights using the Hover app, I was thrilled by what I could do with this drone. I also really loved the simple and easy to use "land" mode. I always enjoy just holding my hand under the drone and letting it land on my palm. How cool is that?!As per the specifications, this drone is not suited to situations with high wind or rain as some other (higher priced) drones can do, but for me that was a non-issue as I didn't want to capture content in those conditions. It also is not fast enough to keep pace with a bicycle at speed (e.g. > 10 mph) but, again, I was not expecting it to. What I did was ride slower when taking action shots so that the drone would be able to keep pace (follow me mode), or I would plan the shot to fit within the drone's capabilities (bird's eye mode, hover mode with a drive by, manual mode with the phone affixed via quad lock to the bicycle so I could operate the controls whilst riding). It is a very flexible drone with lots of potential for getting great shots.It is also very robust. The plastic cage surrounding the rotors ensures that crashes (yes, I had a couple) don't damage the rotors, the gimble + camera(s), or the main body of the drone.I also really liked having two batteries so I could fast swap while on the road. The battery life met my expectations but for those seeking longer flights this might not be the best option - I was getting 10-15 mins of flying time in temperatures ranging from 50's to 60's Fahrenheit, and also dependent on the wind conditions.Besides all that, it's just fun to use. Although not recommended by Hover, I often would fly the drone indoors to show-off its merits to people who were curious to see what the drone could do.

I was thrilled to get this for myself as a birthday present to use on my trip to Costa Rica. I've never owned or used a drone and really wanted something small, easy to use and with decent camera quality to take travel photos. I practiced with it prior to leaving so that I could feel confident in using it and I caught a beautiful beach sunset video with it.It would be great if external storage was an option (like an SD card or something). Instead content has to be downloaded from the device itself while connected via the phone app. It's a little noisy (like a higher pitch whiz) but not terrible, especially when flying at higher heights. It stays surprisingly very stable in the air despite being so light weight and the camera quality is fantastic at the price point! I opted for the extra battery and would recommend doing so to maximize flight time.
