I Bought this drone and have been thoroughly enjoying it since. I bought the drone not having flown one ever before but it's easy to learn on, has high and low speeds and I honestly still prefer low for another flying.The drone arrived quickly and is packaged in it's case, which is great and has a really high quality zipper and pretty tough foam. Everything you get is inside with separate compartments for the drone, both batteries, and the controller. Also included in the top half in a zippered mesh enclosure are two USB charging cables for the batteries, a set of propellers, a small screwdriver and the instructions. You'll need to provide your own AAA batteries for the remote, 3 of them, but otherwise the drone and all of it's accessories and more can be stored in a nice case.The camera is about what you'd expect in this price range, streams to your phone when you download the app and connect to the drones Wifi, the feed is choppy at times, but it does make some pretty cool movies for viewing on a cell phone, images are higher quality and I believe 1080p. Camera has a 90° vertical pivot that works smoothly and also allows for cool shots.Actual flying is a ton of fun, the drone is fairly smooth with very little to no lag time between actions on the remote control and the drone, despite being light it does fight wind pretty well, but being as light as it is expect to work to keep it semi stable in any breeze. Drone has Headless mode, which I haven't used much, high speed rotate, which I've never used on purpose, circle, which works well from my limited use, and auto takeoff and landing which works ok but you may not use it rather quickly. I've had the drone up about 80' but always fought wind and living in the woods small mistakes mean crashes into trees. I have personally crashed this drone many, many times, typically catching a branch or leaves from a few feet off the ground, durability is amazing as the drone has largely survived without damage. I have had two large crashes, the first I was roughly 60' up and the winds picked up and I lost sight of the drone, not wanting it to get lost in trees and my neighbors field I hit the emergency shut down, the drone hit a tree branch roughly 40-50' up and then dropped straight down onto compacted gravel. This crash is the only damage visible as it came straight down on one of the propeller arms, crushing the plastic guard and causing the propeller adapter piece to fall out. However, once I picked it up and pushed the propeller back in place, I was able to continue flying with no major issues. Later, I was pushing the battery to it's limit about 60' up and it began auto-landing, a feature of this drone, unfortunately it was near a branch in a tall tree and crashed upside down on a branch. A few days later it fell out of the tree in the wind and caught in a bush 5' off the ground, unharmed..Overall I'm super happy with the purchase and my only problem is now that I'm sufficient as a pilot I've crashed enough that I damaged the one gearbox and I'm not sure how long it has left. That damage is from me however and if you don't fly as recklessly as I did while learning I think you'll be impressed by the durability, ease of use, and fun offered by this little drone especially for the price

This was my first "real" drone with camera and auto features. Learning to fly was very easy, with clear instructions and smart functions. It was fun learning to avoid obstacles and maintaining position as it soared way up into the sky. This is when I learned stability in wind is so-so, due largely to the light weight. This is the trade off for pretty good battery life and being so easy to carry around with me.Once I gained some prowess with operation and found a wide open space to fly around in, the fun ratcheted up several notches in "high speed" mode as the unit seems very fast and quick to maneuver. It's pretty exhilarating to run it at full throttle back toward my position and then crank a 180 right in front of me!From up high in the sky, where we can see the overview that makes drone photography so special, the clarity and sharpness of pictures is decent/poor depending on the wind speed. I think if it was able to stay still better when up in the breeze, photos would be better but as it is they are not Getty worthy, to say the least. Another trade off. This thing was only $70, after all!I bought in early December then kept it in the box until after Christmas. About 3 months after starting to fly it, one of the motors has weakened and it will not take off any more. Holy Stone is sending me a replacement arm! I expect that to restore it to like-new condition, we will see. Thanks very much to Holy Stone for prompt service and generous policy, given that I believe the warranty is expired.All in all, a fun drone for learning to fly that does not break the bank! Now that I know a thing or two about drone operation, I'll get one with more stability/GPS features and a higher resolution camera.

Bought this drone on a prime day deal as a dumb purchase, but I've been thoroughly enjoying it since.

The flying time is, in my experience, about 22 minutes on average before it automatically lands. The one con I have is that the motors are brushed, and not only not as powerful/efficient as brushless, they also have a gears which is where my drone is failing. At this price point though I don't think you can really count it against it.Overall I'm super happy with the purchase and my only problem is now that I'm sufficient as a pilot I've crashed enough that I damaged the one gearbox and I'm not sure how long it has left.
