Passport Self-Flying Drone, 4k Video & 13MP Photography, Auto-Follow, & Facial Recognition_P000017/P000043

Let me preface this review by saying that I have used a fair number of drones in the past - DJI, Air selfie, a bunch of Hubsans and an Eachine. Obviously each drone has its own purposes, advantages and disadvantages. The Hover camera is an amazing drone. I love everything about it. Its light yet strong. Its packable. The perfect thing to take on a vacation. The battery last 10 minutes, which is good enough to take some great videos and pictures. The controls are just incredible. For the follow your owner version, you don't even need a phone. It follows you around like a puppy. The quality of the videos and pictures are excellent. Its not too noisy. The battery takes only a few minutes to recharge. It comes with 2 battery's and one can buy more. Its perfectly safe to hold while the blades are running.I was looking for a selfie drone that I could take with me when I am travelling. I bought the Air Selfie (selling it now, if anyone is interested). The quality of pictures on the Air selfie are very very poor. The battery last an extremely short time. By time I get to adjust it for a good angle, the battery is dead. It does not have the face recognition feature.

The media could not be loaded. Amazing drone for the price, you just select the person to follow in the app and it will follow you, great wind resistance for its size. It is foldable and lightweight, nice for pictures and videos. Amazing quality on pictures and videos, amazon video wont show even half of its quality. It flies itself much better than expected, even better than the manual mode, can stand strong winds but it will lean and your videos will show tilted, can't ask for more at this price point. This is a selfie drone, not an fpv or trick drone, it does its job, there are many different drones out there, selfie, fpv, trick, gymbal, long distance, you have to choose the one that fits your needs.Also, you can give the altitude you want to be followed with, pictures with bird eye are amazing, everyone will ask you how you took them.And the app has a great video editing section, very easy to use.Only downside is battery, it comes with 2 batteries, nice fast charger, 1 hour to charge, but they last 10 minutes. For me 20 min of video is enough, will buy extra batteries if I find them under 40 dollars.

The media could not be loaded. I paid for a brand new Hover Camera yet found footage of another customer and his daughter flying the drone stored on the device. Not so brand new after all!I also paid $500 for this product yet days after the price dropped to $350.Why was I not reimbursed the difference, and why does Amazon allow sellers to send customers refurbished products after advertising them as brand new?As for the drone itself-Flys great. Steady. Hovers perfectly. Outstanding features. However, facial recognition is not precise. So if you are flying within a crowd, expect the drone to be confused during Owner Mode. Also, be careful flying near sunset. It will malfunction and possibly crash. Sunset was approaching and my drone lost control and rammed into a neighbor's second story condo then fell onto their car! There was no property damage; just cosmetic damage to the drone. Compared to the other drones on the market, this is hands down the safest one out there. Just be careful flying in dimly lit areas under windy conditions and you'll be fine. I flew this when it was semi-windy and it just dropped from the sky (granted the device did give me a warning about the conditions). Now each time I hover above 30 feet I feel nervous it'll drop out of the sky.Overall, fun drone with impressive hover control and quality 4k camera capability. However, something needs to be done about this merchant and their unprofessional, underhanded treatment of customers.

The media could not be loaded. where to even start.1.) This is the second Hover Camera I got the first one was an open box when I clearly paid for a brand new one. Amazon sent me a replacement ASAP next day.s2.) Charged the batteries and start it and it works fine but it would not keep the HOVER part correct so look up on their website and it said to update the firmware to correct hover action. Downloaded the firmware and updated via wifi to the device it reaches 100% and it said to wait 3-5 minutes well it has been over 24hrs at this point and the hover camera is dead.3.) I louder than my DJI Spark flying.4.) At a price of practically the same as DJI SPARK AVOID THE HOVER CRAP because it does not work returning it and getting my money back.5.) some of the pictures it took were awful really blurry.

As per Description

Excelente Producto. Llego a tiempo y todo en buenas condiciones, la cámara es muy sencilla de manejar y la app que se baja fácil de utilizar.

Packing was secure and product well protected. Quite easy to assemble and start using. Rotors are noisy and a little distracting. Control by cellphone is a little difficult especially since I have a Samsung and little movements cause the drone to move awkwardly. This item will need practice to master.

Great idea. This hover doesn’t work as it says on the ads. It takes off without notice. Such a great idea wish it worked. But it doesn’t. The controls don’t work.
