This drone is ridiculously compact in size, but performs very well. I've taken it on vacation and it was a snap to get into the air. It's also incredibly durable since I have crashed it a few times, sometimes very hard! But a couple new rotor blades and it was good as new, even with a few scratches. I'm impressed by the build quality. The body appears to be metal, which came in handy on those hard landings (or tree collisions!).
Camera is very good, and compression is surprisingly good. I actually prefer this configuration of putting the card right into the drone and not relaying the image to my phone. I guess that's necessary for the 4k files. I just like popping it out and into my computer, but I suppose if you lose the drone, there goes your memory card, too!
Battery life is very good and I especially like the dual battery charger. Controls are easy to learn and the drone is very stable. If there are any drawbacks, it's that it's so tiny that it's hard to see when far away, at least to my old eyes. Being so small, it's also affected more by higher winds, but that's pretty much the case with any small drone. Out of the few inexpensive drones I own, this is my "go-to" drone for the time being.
Small drone, but powerfull and well built.

This is my first drone and it is absolutely amazing. It has a lot of control as well as good speed. It is small, but extremely well built.
The remote feels extremely comfortable in the hands. The batteries last between 15 to 20 mins depending on how much videos and pictures you take.
I am very impressed by this drone. I like everything accept for one thing. I wish the camera was NOT manual. I wish I could adjust the camera angles in flight from the controller.
Otherwise I think it is one of the best drones on the market for $200. Holy Stone seems to make quality products with good customer service. Great powerful drone.
Thank you Holy Stone for a great drone experience.
read the instructions and you should enjoy this drone

Very nice to fly and easy to control. I had a little trouble right off the bat with not following directions and downloading the wrong app, not calibrating a GPS correctly ,and a few other little problems but after I got those straightened out the Drone seems to fly very well. I had an HS100 drone previous to this one which I managed to crash into a tree and Rec I never really got the hang of flying it as well as I would have liked to. This drone seems to fly very well and I don't have much trouble flying it and I'm an old man so I imagined a big kid or would have no trouble at all with it. The camera is very nice but like everybody else I wish it had a 2-axis gimbal on it but it's really not a big deal. the pictures are very high quality in any case. It seems to be a tough little drone and that's a good thing also it comes in a very nice case with a controller that's very easy to use. So far, I am very pleased with this purchase hope that this lasts for a very long time.
Super great drone

This was my very first drone and would say that it has been very easy to fly! It was a little bit confusing at first considering there is a lot to learn as far as pairing it with the controller / phone and functions. After the initial setup, you can get it to hover in the air with one button. The ability to record video and take pictures to the SD card is a plus. Having the GPS on it has made it that much easier to fly. I would definitely recommend it for someone just starting to get into drones, like me.
One of the best for Beginners

I like this drone because is easy to use, very beautiful and compact to carrying, and has a nice quality and price. My only concern is the camera it can be better in especial the stabilization and the brightness of the sun effect, but take video and photo very nice for me. I'm going to give this drone of Holy Stone five stars because is a very good drone.
