X1 Self-Flying Camera, Pocket-Sized Drone HDR Video Capture, Palm Takeoff, Intelligent Flight Paths, Follow-Me Mode, Foldable Action Camera with Hands-Free Control Black (Combo)

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.

Great once you master the basics and can use manual mode. You can use the app on your mobile to view in real time tracking... I think its well worth getting for the price if you didn't want a more professional one costing a lot more

So easy to get initial shots - and a certain amount of control over 'preset' parameters is possible. I have started t experiment with custom flights - I would prefer it if every shot was NOT a selfie! Also it is frustrating that it has a very slow charger - obviously it is very particular about which electrons it allows to enter the battery, but from minimum to maximum it takes over 3 hours - and, if using the trin charger, charges one battery first, then moves on to the second one!. Just so frustrating. If you're concerned about potentially damaging the HoverAir X1 in your pocket or if packing for a trip, you will be delighted to know it exactly fits a standard 3.5-inch drive case! - Problem solved for a few extra pounds. Overall - Do I like it? - YES. - Do I love it? - Not sure yet. - Can it get better? - I'm sure it can - and hopefully will be in the firmware updates soon! - Would I swap it fo a refund? - NO

Fantastic drone, 2.7k video quality is great for quality videos and the camera takes amazing shots. Easy to fly, manual or autonomously. Batteries last long enough to get multiple videos (10 mins is more than enough life per battery, depending on your usage). 4 stars, as there is so much potential (updates permitting) for this drone.

Small drone, looks delicate but proved to be surprisingly very sturdy. I am pleased with the quality. It traveled with me around the world already. The app doesn’t allow you to try on all the modes unless you reach some achievements, which is annoying, but otherwise it’s a great flying selfie stick

It’s expensive. It’s light, it’s small. It looks like a toy but it is incredible. It’s not a Drone that needs you to master a great deal. It’s pre programmed to do a fair amount and that’s the beauty of it. Very quickly you see how easy it is to use and the effects are amazing but what blew my mind was that if you talk into your phone’s mic while it’s flying (and you’re connected to it) the AI gets rid of the buzzing noise to give clear commentary. A couple of cons, it could easily be grabbed by someone if you’re using this in a very populated area and they could run off with it. It does have limitations like about 10 mins flying time on one battery. If it’s too windy it won’t fly or will just land without returning to you. Don’t fly it over water, it will end in tears. Notwithstanding those Cons I think it’s bloody marvellous and already I’ve taken some exciting & interesting selfies that you wouldn’t get either by holding it or sticking my phone on a pole. If you can afford it, buy it. I thoroughly recommend this.

Value for money, very safe for anyone to use, and very portable. Functional, the camera quality varies on different settings. It's ideal for a photographer who wants to photograph their solo travels. The battery life lasts at least 11 minutes, so I would recommend getting a second battery.

Small so fits in a pocket, husband loves it, specially when it’s following him

Espectacular para bicicleta gravel, ligero y se guardan el maillot

Da quando ho messo le mani su questo mini drone l’ho portato praticamente ovunque: uscite in bici della domenica, corse al parco la mattina e persino brevi escursioni in collina. Al tatto è sorprendentemente leggero, entra nella tasca della maglia e sembra non pesare nulla quando lo infilo nello zaino. Il rombo dei suoi rotori è più discreto di quanto immaginassi; la gabbia protettiva in plastica dà immediatamente fiducia e, dopo un paio di piccoli urti, ho constatato che protegge davvero eliche e corpo principale. Le modalità preimpostate, follow me, hover e dolly track funzionano bene per chi non vuole affrontare una curva di apprendimento lunga; la voce elettronica conferma ogni selezione e l’app permette di intervenire sui parametri (altezza, distanza) lasciando le impostazioni in memoria. Con una batteria riesco a volare intorno ai 10-15 minuti, lo swapping delle batterie è immediato e torna utile quando si è fuori tutto il giorno. L’esperienza d’uso mi ha convinto: pratico, diverte. Un buon prodotto, se dovete fare un regolo sono soldi spesi benissimo.

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 paths Cons: - 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!

Fantastisk

I’ve never owned or flown a drone before, but the HOVERAir X1 made me feel like I’ve had one for years. This thing is unbelievably light and compact — it literally disappears into a jacket pocket — yet the footage it captures looks like it came from a professional camera crew. What impressed me most was how hands-off the experience is. Palm takeoff works exactly as advertised, the intelligent flight modes track and frame you automatically, and it smoothly follows paths without me touching a joystick once. As a new user, that gave me instant confidence. The HDR video quality is way better than I expected from something this small and quiet. If you want cinematic shots without learning complicated controls or lugging around a big drone, the X1 is a game-changer. It’s not just beginner-friendly — it makes you look like you know what you’re doing from day one. Highly recommended.
