Title: Very easy and safe to fly - complete beginner
Review: First up - my drone flying experience was one failed flight on a cheap drone 3 years ago which put me off trying a more expensive one. Big mistake.Thankfully this DJI Mini 4K was on a Prime deal so I took a chance. 1 million percent happy I did. My passion is making videos of nature and local events. I use good quality equipment and wanted something that could enhance my videos but not look cheap. I watched some YouTube videos on the DJI Mini 2 (and 4K - basically the same drone) and took a chance.REVIEW:1. Ridiculously easy to fly. No crashes, no near misses and no chance it will fly away. All of which I had in the first day using the afore mentioned cheap drone. This DJI takes off and just hovers there - no moving, no drifting. You push up on the left stick and it goes up. You pull down on the left stick it comes down and lands. It's that easy. First flight I even landed it on my hand because the grass was a bit long. (I have bought a landing mat)2. Safe - following on from easy to fly is safety. The built in return to home features mean this drone is next to impossible to lose. Yes, you could fly it into a tree or building, but because you see what the camera see and you have accurate height information would mean it's your fault - not the drones. I have taken things slow and so far I have done some fairly long distance flights (400ft high and almost a mile away). If I lose sight of the drone, I use the map on the screen to line it up with me and fly it back. If I really get stuck I press the Return To Home and it flys itself back and lands.3. Video quality - beautiful. The image is incredibly stable (as you would expect from DJI), the picture quality is excellent and compliments my other equipment. This little drone is punching way above its weight. And again, because you have live video feedback in your hands getting reasonable composed shots in the first week is possible. See attached video. It's a learning curve for sure, but using any new video camera is. The skill is not having the $ to but the equipment, but learning to use it properly. The cheap drone I tried 3 years ago was unusable video - shaky, soft, washed out colors. This DJI is fantastic in auto mode, and in manual mode you have some control over the recording settings. And because it is so stable in flight, you can concentrate on making sure the video you are recording is good - you are not worrying that the drone will crash.4. Value - I paid $239 on Prime deal day. What a steal. The build quality is excellent. The IOS App is easy to use. No issues connecting, no stability issues, not bugs found. Flight time is about 20 - 25 minutes, which is more than enough for what I need.5. Extras - Technically everything you need, apart from a Micro SD card, is in the basic package. You don't need to buy anything else. But some nice to have extras, that I have now bought are : More batteries - I bought the 2 batteries and charger (renewed) pack for $88. I also bought a protection case $20, a landing mat $18, a screen shield to help with bright sunlight viewing $20. I am also using Freewell ND filters, so far I have bought 4 of them $60. But technically all of these are not needed. But my advise would be to get the flymore pack if you have the budget - it makes a saving - but for me on the Prime day deal it was not an option, only the basic kit was reduced.Summary: I love this little drone. It has given me the confidence to get out there and fly. Its easy to fly, the video is great and the value its excellent. I was scarred by a cheap drone experience. The motto "buy cheap, buy twice" has never been more true. I could not recommend this product any higher. If you are a complete beginner then this is the place to start.

Title: DJI Neo Mini Drone â Compact, Smart, and Perfect for 4K Footage!
Review: The DJI Neo Mini Drone is an impressive piece of tech, especially for its compact size and weight of just 135g. As someone who loves capturing high-quality video on the go, the 4K UHD camera really blew me away. The video is sharp and stabilized, making it great for both casual flying and professional-looking footage. Plus, the built-in propeller guards add a layer of safety, perfect for flying in tight spaces.What I love most about the DJI Neo is the AI subject trackingâit follows me seamlessly without the need for a controller. The palm takeoff feature is incredibly fun and convenient, and the drone is smart enough to handle most flying situations on its own. The QuickShots feature makes creating dynamic shots super easy, and the controller-free operation is a game-changer for those who want a streamlined, hands-free flying experience.If youâre looking for a lightweight drone that packs a punch with its features, this is the one. The DJI Neo is perfect for both beginners and experienced flyers who want to capture incredible shots without worrying about controlling every move. Highly recommend!

Review: Great unit. Connects easily to the phone and is clearly high performance for this price range. I'm learning that a little extra cash for obstacle avoidance might not be a bad thing, but that's because of my flying skills and not the drone's fault. I've learned that replacing the blades is very easy to do.

Review: Iâm a beginner, the camera quality is amazing and it is easy to operate.Very steady in the air and definitely more than I expected for the price.The only downside is the battery life. I would definitely recommend getting additional batteries if you plan on flying for more than 20-30 minutes at a time.
