Amazing
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!

Great personal "Camera Man"!
UPDATE: App Crashing issue.Start the app first, then turn on the drone.Pro tip: Make sure the app fully finishes loading, then press power on drone.This is a great camera man that can follow you around, hover over your head, follow you, etc. Possibilities are endless.Pro's:*Takes great pictures and videos.*Easily stores in the supplied bag(if ordered).*Comes with two batteries and charger(If ordered the bundle) or similar.*Easily transfers videos to your person cellular device.*Interface is fairly easy for techies.*App is downloadable via iOS or Android.*Pictures are amazing as well as the videos(No sound, unless you indicate and uses your phone as sound via the app).Cons:*Could be quite difficult for average user to setup and understand. Bring up Youtube and take some of the tutorials there first.*Battery life is ok, but expect to buy one more battery if taking on trips and such. 15 minutes is average fly time, then the battery is toast.*App is the main problem on Android. Continuously crashes until it finally connects. Be sure to update the firmware frequently and update your app as well. iOS App works fine. I have seen this first hand on a friends Apple phone and does not crash.*Downloading to computer to edit photos or movies can be a bit cumbersome if you are not tech savvy as well. Again, please check YouTube or similar to figure out how to do this. Do not get frustrated.*Tech support is being reported bad by the manufacturer, but as of yet, I have not required that support.Final overall review:For me, I gave this rating as a 4 star for now due to the current Android app issue, but overall, this drone is perfect as a "camera man"; your personal movie producer and snapshot person.I use CapCut(Free) or purchased as Pro. This is perfect to edit videos and such. Keep in mind, the videos are absent of sound, unless you choose to record sound from your phone, if so, you need to keep the phone nearby. It does cut out the sound of the drone blades too.In closing:If you are up to a little work and take the steps I did to research, it is worth the weight it's weight in gold to have one of these! You will be very happy to have such incredible shots/videos to save for years and years.Thank you for reading.

The flying selfie stick is fun and easy to use
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.

So easy... Super fun
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 :)

No es un dron es una camara selfie
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

Eccezionale il prodotto ed increibile l'assistenza
L'Hoverair X1 è un prodotto eccezionale ed unico nel panorama dei droni. Il suo compito principale è realizzare video automatici, di un certo effetto, attorno ad un soggetto, liberando la persona dalla necessità di operare su un telecomando per seguire i suoi movimenti. La sua praticità è ulteriormente amplificata dalla possibilità di richiudere le sue ali con inglobati i rotori che lo rende addirittura tascabile, al pari di uno smartphone, pronto in un attimo ed entrare in azione senza necessità di attivare procedure, calibrazioni o accensioni di telecomandi per gestirlo. Una sorta di punta e scatta, come dicevo, unico nel campo dei droni. Io, oltre che per queste sue caratteristiche di base, l'ho trovato utilissimo in manuale per scattare selfie da solo o in compagnia con scenari magnifici alle spalle. Inoltre, sempre in manuale, lo trovo comodo per scattare foto da una posizione più sopraelevata, a volte necessari per cogliere un panorama o un edificio nella sua interezza, impossibili da fare con un semplice smartphone.Dopo otto mesi di felice utilizzo, a seguito di un incidente che non sto a spiegare per evitare di dilungarmi ulteriormente, purtroppo il drone ha smesso di funzionare. Nonostante il tempo passato, pur riconoscendo una mia principale responsabilità nell'incidente, anche se dovuto ad uno dei limiti del prodotto, senza particolari aspettative decido comunque di contattare l'assistenza. Con mia sorpresa vengo contattato in meno di 24 ore, dalla sera al mattino. Nella mail mi vengono ribaditi alcuni limiti che avrei dovuto rispettare nell'utilizzo del prodotto e, dato il tipo di problema, il drone era irreparabile.Comunque, riconoscendo la mia buona fede, si dispiacevano per l'accaduto e, se avessi lasciato il mio indirizzo, mi avrebbero rispedito un prodotto nuovo a costo zero.Dopo soli 3 giorni mi arrivava a casa un nuovo Hoverair X1! Rimango sbalordito dall' assistenza, a cui vanno tutti i miei complimenti. L'unico rimpianto e non poter recuperare i file stoccati all'interno della memoria del drone, che ha solo una memoria interna, accessibile solo se il drone si accende, ma poco male.In conclusione il mio plauso va, non solo al prodotto, ma all'azienda Zero Zero Robotics, rivelatasi un'azienda seria e vicina ai suoi utenti.Che dire, prodotto straconsigliato!

Good video, easy to use, great fun, great value
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.
