JJRC X19

JJRC X19 Drone Review

Some of the perks that you get with the JJRC X19 drone include 5G WiFi connectivity, dual camera (4K HD), remote controller with small screen panel in the middle and other features. Later on, we shall look at its main features in detail.

The price is not too bad. Besides, you also get to choose the package with one, two or three batteries. For longer flight time and more fun in the air, we recommend that you get the two or three-battery package. It will cost you slightly more, but it will be money well spent.

This drone comes in RTF (ready to fly) packaging. Thus, no assemblage is needed. You can fly it right out of the box, of course, after calibrating it. You can refer to the user manual to see how to calibrate it for flight.

Is there any downside to worry about? Not really. This is a well thought out product. The only catch is that if you don’t like it, you have to send photos and videos first to show that the product is undamaged. You also have to pay for the shipping back as well as the original shipping cost.

Holy Stone HS700E

Holy Stone HS700E Review

The Holy Stone HS700E drone comes with a good number of features and flight modes for this price bracket. Thus, if you need an adult GPS drone with long distance flight range and incredible flight time, you might want the HS700E.

Like all the other Holy Stone drones that we have reviewed here, you will appreciate the workmanship that has gone into this quadcopter. Everything, from the nicely padded storage/transport case to the click-in-place propellers shows how much this drone maker cares about quality.

Are there any downsides to look forward to? Well, first, some people complain that the drone is overpriced. Actually, Holy Stone drones cost more than most of their counterparts in the market. However, if the features justify the price, it is not too high.

Another thing that you might be wary of is that the propellers slide into place but the drone does not come with propeller guards. Thus, they can easily slide off (as some people have complained) and if you crash it, the propellers are unguarded, so they can sustain damage.

It is not all bad though, as you will see in the upcoming sections of this review.

ZLL SG108 PRO

ZLL SG108 PRO Drone Review

If you are looking for an affordable drone with many features and flight functions, you might want to try the ZLL SG108 PRO YAN drone. It comes in a striking orange or black color and the camera takes decent photo and video footage.

Looking at the details, you will be impressed. First, it has an SD card slot so you need not store video and photo footage in your smartphone or tablet. Secondly, it comes in a nice, folding design. Being a GPS-enabled drone, it will find its way home if the signal fails.

As usual, there are some downsides, which are not deal breakers. For instance, the SG108 PRO is so lightweight. Therefore, in the wind, it can be hard to trim. It is advisable to fly it when there is no wind.

We shall be looking at these features and automatic flight modes packed into this quadcopter in the upcoming section.

DJI Air 2S Review

The DJI Mavic Air 2S is a small quadcopter that comes with higher specs and features than its predecessor the Mavic Air 2.

The camera is better, and so is the handling. You can refer to our earlier review of the DJI Mavic Air 2. One of the most notable differences is in the camera.

For instance, where the Air can take 4K videos at 30FPS, the Air 2S can take 5.4K videos at 30 FPS. It also comes with a bigger 1-inch CMOS sensor for better still photos. The camera takes stills at 20MP whereas the Air has a 12MP lens.

This is a proper upgrade and as usual, upgrades mean more money. Therefore, the high price of the Air 2S might be a downside to some people. Of course, at such a price, you really don’t want to buy this one as your starter drone.

Also, at this time, this drone is not compatible with any DJI VR goggles. Other limitations include lack of automatic transfer of footage from drone storage to your phone storage.
