DJI may be the dominant force in aerial videography, but does that mean there are no other drone brands worth considering? Absolutely not. On the contrary, the Chinese company HoverAir has some very impressive offerings, like the viral X1 selfie drone, which is currently reduced from $399 to $298.99.
Whether you’re a content creator or simply want to document your outdoor adventures, the X1 makes filming content easier than ever. Simply choose from its five flight modes, hit start, and this tiny drone will launch off the palm of your hand, whilst seamlessly tracking your movement. When it’s done, it automatically returns and lands gently back in your palm. Plus, it weighs less than an iPhone, making it super portable for any adventure.
The X1 captures stunning visuals with support for 2.7K video at 30fps, 1080p at 60fps, and 1080p HDR, along with sharp 12MP photos. Our reviewer praised its “really smooth cinematic footage,” made possible by built-in digital image stabilization that keeps shots steady and free from unwanted shake. It has a default flight range of 30 feet, but you can extend that to 50 feet when flying manually through the Hover app. Despite its compact size, it handles wind speeds up to 15mph with ease. And the Hover app? It's refreshingly simple to use –perfect even if you're not especially tech-savvy.
