   Good drone for beginners, but you probably will want the controller to add to the functionality of it. But it is nice and fast, easy to fly and not too loud.

   I’m really happy with this drone! It’s easy to fly, super stable, and the extra batteries are a huge plus — they let me enjoy much longer flying sessions without worrying about charging. Great quality and totally worth it!

   Mine came direct from Dji Hong Kong in 4 days!
   This little drone is built to last and does everything well.
   Next up is to get the FPV goggles and motion controller but the goggles are being price gouged by almost 100% by some sellers!
   hedfpk.com.com needs to kick those sellers to the curb!
   Tariffs are not even in force yet!
   Buy this drone and let’s go fly.

   What, you mean this is actually a $330 drone? Well, yeah. At $200 it works, and works well, but you don’t get the full feature set. If you get the $130 controller that DJI sells, it will wake this drone up and make it much more usable and fun. Of course you can go all out and spend $500 for the goggles, and another $200 for the two controllers that really open this drone up to some real flying. But at that point, I’d suggest going with the Avata 2 instead.

   Overall though, for a cheap start to droning, this guy is a great choice. Fantastic video, easy controls, some nice features that others don’t have (missing a few they have though….) But still, this is a great start for those who want to dip thier toes before jumping in. And, after you jump in, this little guy will still come out of your bag of drones once in a while to do some things you wouldn’t want your more expensive drones to do.

   Only negative to me is the super short battery life. I’ve never achieved over 10 mins flight. As light as this drone is, I think DJI could find a way to make a battery that’s at least a little bit bigger. 15 mins real world flight time would be a big plus.

   Excellent for use as a selfie camera.

   This drone is amazing. I’ve owned several DJI drones in the past and they were always intuitive and offered high-quality video. However, they lacked in terms of quick shots, controller-less functionality and (to some extent) portability. Not this one.

   I received my Neo today and was shocked at how truly tiny it is. I charged it up, connected it to the DJI Fly app, and updated the firmware within just a few minutes. Took some test flights in my loft and I was pleased with how easy it was to control the drone with my iPhone. Then I took it out cycling.

   The Neo fit comfortably in my small USWE cycling backpack. I took it to a park a few miles away and tested all the quick shots, including follow-me (which is great, but has roughly a 13mph limit). The footage was fantastic, even in a light breeze. I got about 20 quick-shot flights out the battery, and when I got home it was easy to connect to the drone wirelessly via the DJI Fly app, and download the videos to my iPhone. Slick!

   I’m looking forward to bringing this little drone with me on loads of cycling / ski trips. I also ordered an RC-N3 controller so I can bring it sailing and fly it like a traditional drone. I previously had one of the new HoverAir drones on pre-order and I’m so happy I canceled in favor of the Neo. It’s half the price and far more capable. You won’t regret buying this one.

   As a someone that bought this just to play with drones (after trying some of the cheaper ones) – I love how easy this is to use, and how many resources are available online to learn from simply around this one product.

   I would recommend this to anyone looking to get started with drones – don’t waste your time on cheaper knock-off garbage – DJI knows exactly what they are doing!

   The good: This is by far the most user friendly and accessible camera drone that DJI or anyone has put out at any price… and the price is low enough to be a safe experiment for a lot more people. The bad: In a few ways it falls short of expectations set by other DJI drones, and the software is not all that polished. No vertical video mode, and the camera isn’t as good as DJI’s larger drones. Battery life is much shorter than other DJI drones. No card slot, so memory is fairly limited. The product description is accurate. For less than a lot of college kids might spend on a bar night, you get a selfie camera that can produce usable 4k video for social media etc on day one with negligible learning curve. Using the phone as a controller opens up the basics of “the regular drone experience” with joystick style controls and a live camera feed, without adding to that “not even enough for a weekend airbnb” price point. Add an optional $150 controller and you have basically all of the main capabilities of the Mavic Mini series plus a safe and durable fully faired design that can be operated even indoors or above people and is exempt from many FAA rules. Compared to “pro” series drones, there are a lot of limitations. You can’t fly more than about one city block in manual mode with the app controller, even if you walk with it. The phone app has a few other limitations compared to a dedicated controller including altitude being much more limited. If you aren’t an experienced drone pilot, you may not know what you’re missing anyway. No vertical video or photo shooting is a mild nuisance and a head scratcher for a model aimed at social media use. Overall, the camera is “good enough” and essentially on par with an entry level smartphone, 4k/30 (horizontal only) and 12mp photos, with no zoom. The camera isn’t hard to beat at all as cameras go, but being able to fly somewhat sets it apart from other cameras you can buy for less than the price of a night at a decent hotel. The controller app, which you already have if you’ve used another DJI drone recently, is lacking polish in some ways, being a totally new interface. It can be a little slow in certain ways and it has fewer controls on screen than you get with the hardware controllers. But it works, and it’s easy to use. I would feel comfortable gifting this to someone not exceptionally tech savvy. The room for improvement is what i mean by “1.0 vibes.” It’s an awesome concept but you can visually see how this mode in the app lacks the polish of other screens, like quick transfer, which incidentally works beautifully. The no controller modes are really cool as well. There are multiple versions of followed mode and one of them is for the drone to fly “backwards” while keeping you in frame. This is fantastic for vlogging, and can use the phone microphone pretty seamlessly as well, though only if you launch from the app and touch a setting first. The other “quick shot” modes are similar to other DJI drones but much quicker to access and great for, well, quick use. Being able to get a drone selfie without fussing with a controller is kind of game changing for the “snapshot” style. Playing with this drone has forced me to kind of rethink the boundaries of what a drone can and should do. This is far from my first drone, but it’s the first one I could put in my pants pocket without worry. This means it can go places that other drones can’t practically go, or rather, places i normally wouldn’t bother taking one. I can take this on every hike. I can take it to the dog park. I can even take it into a big box store. I can take it casually to a lot of places where other drones need conspicuous permission. For kayaking and rafting, this means that i can casually toss a drone into my main drybag versus before a lot of careful planning being required for the bulk of a whole kit. It’s the same as the difference between my iphone, which i carry everywhere with no thought, and my big Sony Alpha, which I leave behind most of the time. The best camera is the one you have with you, and likewise the drone that isn’t a lot of work to haul around will get shots other drones could technically get better but won’t be present for. The other limitation is battery life, but read the whole thought. Battery life is around 15 minutes of flight time and it takes longer than that to recharge. This is a third of what you get with the larger DJI drones. However, it is more than enough for most uses, and many experienced drone pilots remember a time when 15 minutes was an exceptionally long flight time. Again, for a drone that costs less than some cable bills, this is a small complaint. This goes hand in hand with the other “weird” limitation of no SD card. The internal memory is apparently around 22 gigabytes, a rather odd figure. But it’s enough for more video than you could possibly shoot on one battery, and transfer to phone is faster than real time. DJI has really perfected the “quick transfer” function and 4k footage transfers losslessly. There doesn’t seem to be a “format” or “erase all” function in the app but it’s pretty easy to delete videos one at a time or in a batch. A “delete after transfer” software feature could be nice for them to add in an update. Overall: If you don’t have a drone yet, this is your chance to get one that is versatile and fun at a minimum investment. Without even adjusting for inflation, this flying camera costs less than I spent on my first “real” camera during high school – without a lens. This is a drone with AI capabilities for less than what I paid for my first Nokia brick phone. A ticket to Hamilton costs more, and not even for a good seat. It is truly an astounding value. Buy this drone and learn to fly it with the phone app. Then upgrade by adding a controller – pro tip, you can probably find a compatible RC-N2 controller used for a bit less. You can even add the DJI FPV headset to create a really cool high speed VR flying kit for a lot less than those used to cost, and you can start the process with this simple piece that costs less than many popular action cameras. I’m just looking around my living room for trivial things that cost more than this… most musical instruments. An Apple HomePod. A professional family portrait. My good American flag. My basic TV. Heck i have more than the price of this drone invested in laptop bags in my line of sight right now. This drone cost less than my set of Star Trek DVDs. You will not regret getting one. Go for it and have fun.

    Works great.

    El vuelo máximo es de 15 minutos aproximadamente, en lugares con mucho viento se mantiene inestable, es ideal para videos Corto y pequeños momentos, durante el día la calidad de video es muy buena, no vuela en lugares con poca luz…

    This was difficult to get sorted out and synced to the controllers. Now it is very fun and intuitive. I flew it close to a bees nest and it sucked a few into the rotors and stayed in the air. It also stabilized after a small collision with a upright branch. The max speed is good for wooded areas but I would prefer it to be faster if I was in a field. I struggle to get the data off the recordings so the subtitles block out the video. It has suffered minor crashes and been fine. I recommend the protection plan so you’re not afraid to fly. You should use the motion remote controller for this unless you have another compatible controller already.

    I can’t say enough about the Neo. Considering its size and its price, combined with all of its features it’s an absolute monster! Super easy to fly, and has several performance modes to give your video a more polished look. It’s little a little louder than I would expect coming from such a small drone. You definitely need more than one battery though. I also recommend getting the controller.
