Neo Three-Battery Combo, Mini Drone 4K UHD Camera for Adults, 135g Self Flying Drone That Follows You, Palm Takeoff, Subject Tracking, QuickShots, Stabilized Video (Controller-Free), Gray

This was a Christmas gift for my “big boy” — my husband — and he LOVED it! The DJI Neo Three-Battery Combo is an amazing little drone that delivers way more fun and quality than we expected. The drone feels very well made, easy to use even for beginners, and incredibly fun right out of the box. The 4K camera produces great footage for its size, and the self-flying features make it enjoyable without feeling complicated or intimidating. The three-battery combo is a HUGE plus — honestly, it’s super necessary. It lets you enjoy longer flying sessions without constantly stopping to recharge, which makes the experience so much better. For the price, this combo is an excellent deal. Pros: Fun and intuitive to use (great for beginners and adults) Excellent build quality 4K video quality for such a small drone Three batteries included — very practical and needed Great value for the price Perfect gift idea Cons: None so far — it does exactly what we expected and more If you’re looking for a fun, high-quality drone for adults or a gift that will actually get used and enjoyed, this one is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

The DJI Neo 1 is a small and compact drone with a very good price-to-quality ratio. It’s an excellent option for beginners or for people who don’t need a large, complex drone or special permits. In my case, living in Colombia, drones under 200 grams do not need to be registered and are considered recreational, which makes this model even more attractive. Despite its size, it offers decent image quality and useful features for casual flying. It’s lightweight, easy to transport, and very convenient to carry anywhere. Of course, we can’t expect a 30-minute battery life from a drone this size—the average flight time is around 14 minutes—so I highly recommend having at least three batteries for a better experience. It’s important to understand that this drone has the DNA of more professional DJI drones, but it is not a professional drone in a small body. The image quality is good for its category, but one limitation is the lack of a more advanced multi-axis gimbal. Additionally, strong winds can affect stability when flying at higher altitudes. Overall, it delivers exactly what it promises. It’s a very good drone that I would recommend both to beginners and to drone enthusiasts who want something compact, portable, and easy to use without taking up much space.

A very fun drone to use. Great for beginners and pros alike. I was amazed at the quality of photos and videos having such a small camera. The drone is very stable in flight. I was also impressed that it could record audio and cut out the prop noise! It may be a little off, so you have to correct that in post production. Works great by itself, with a cellphone, or with the controller.

I’ve gone through a handful of drones trying to avoid spending big money. After losing a couple in the past, I tried to stay under the $1,000 mark. In order from cheapest to most expensive, I’ve owned the Ruko F11, SJRC F11, and HoverAir ProMax. The Ruko and SJRC were exactly what you’d expect for the price: limited features, mediocre build quality, and not something you’d trust for anything serious. The HoverAir ProMax was the first one that felt like a real product, but it’s basically a selfie drone. It markets itself as a first-person drone with features like Follow-Me, but that mode barely worked. Even after spending extra on the controller, it constantly lost track of me. Between the drone and accessories, I spent around $1,000 and still couldn’t rely on it. So when I picked up the DJI Neo, I wasn’t expecting much. I was wrong. It’s a fantastic drone. The DJI Neo has many of the same features as the HoverAir, but there are trade-offs. The HoverAir definitely has sharper photo and video quality, and it has sensors on more sides. But the DJI Neo is half the price, and more importantly, it can be fully remote-controlled. With the DJI RC2 controller, I can fly it confidently across my entire 15-acre property, about a mile out, without issues. The HoverAir’s controller was limited to basic movement, maybe 100 feet of usable range, and constantly losing signal or tracking. One feels like a true drone, the other feels like a novelty item. Yes, you sacrifice a bit of image quality with the Neo, but what you gain is a real drone experience: real range, real control, real reliability. Nothing kills the experience faster than constantly turning around on a trail to see if your drone stopped following you and then walking back 50 feet to retrieve it. I dealt with that constantly with the HoverAir. With the DJI Neo, that’s never been a concern. If you want a dependable drone that actually flies instead of just hovering next to you for selfies, the DJI Neo is absolutely worth it.

Excelente dron para hacer grabaciones cuando salgo en bicicleta y para hacer varias tomas en mis tiempos libres, con las 3 baterías puedo hacer varias tomas por un buen tiempo, su manejo es muy sencillo ya sea con el control o con el celular

Pretty good and easy to use; Sadly there’s many laws in Japan and is very difficult to use it outside your own house. The setup was simple and the quality of the camera is acceptable. Wind can be a issue. Flying in manual mode is a challenge.

Really impressed with the DJI Neo. It’s properly easy to use, even if you’re not a drone expert. The palm take-off works really well and the controller-free setup makes it feel much less intimidating than older drones I’ve owned. The tracking is great and it follows you smoothly without constant input. QuickShots are a nice touch too and make it easy to get good footage without spending ages messing with settings. The video is sharp and the stabilisation does a great job, even when you’re moving. It also feels well protected. The built-in propeller guards are ideal for peace of mind, especially when using it in tighter spaces or around people, and it’s been very stable in flight. For the size and price, it’s a cracking bit of kit.

fabulous little drone, far more capable than folks give it credit ~ range is great, using it with saved flight logs with GPS to map / survey forest acreage with confidence as navigation and video signals hold up really well, even through dense north eastern forest having achieved +4000ft distance so far without issues.. not a suggestion nor an endorsement, merely stating personal experience.. we bought a second Neo drone shortly after this one while it was on sale along with batteries.. which I must say, do perform as well as manufacturer claim.

Already own a sub 250 gram drone with a 4K camera and 3-axis gimble so... Did extensive research prior to purchasing the DJI Neo by reading/watching lots of reviews. After a few days toying with it, I am 110% sold. Nope by no means is it perfect yet IMHO, the positive far outweigh the negatives. Build quality is first rate in my opinion so should stand up fairly well. Props are well protected, battery latches firmly into place, has a camera guard/cover, power and mode control buttons are top mounted, has voice prompts, available in a "Fly More Combo" kit, etc. Super small footprint yet packs a punch. Multifunction in that it can be flown w/o a phone or RC controller, with a mobile phone, and/or with the DJI RC-N3 remote controller. Has palm takeoff and landing, voice control, AI subject tracking and quickshots, etc. Compared to other drones equipped with a single axis gimble, DJI stabilization technology really does a great job in keeping the footage smooth. I've gotten between 11-13 minutes of battery runtime so we are OK with that. My only real complaint(s) would have to be the limited onboard (non-removable/upgradable) storage. Although 22GB seems fairly ample so far it is an odd choice for such a device... To download footage requires plugging the drone into a device, no battery/power-on needed.
