    I will give this product a thumbs up for ease of operation, user friendly and coolness factor. My godson loved it. We hate the battery life, 6-10min before you have to charge for an hour?!?!?

    This little drone is a capable little flyer. It is fun to amuse your pet with it. However, the 5 minutes of battery only serve to wet your appetite for more...flash forward 2.5 hrs to your next flight. And while it does have snap shot capability...there is no video. This little drone would be a keeper with better battery life and video. I liked my AR Drone better.

    The mini Parrot.Drone that we purchased as a Christmas gift was a great choice fior my younger brother who is an electonics engineer with a little boy's heart. We decided on buying one less than a week before Christmas and didn't think we could get one in time. I checked Amazon and Best Buy. Best Buy had the best price and had the option of in store pick up. Our local Best Buy was out of the mini drone but another Best Buy an hour north of us had it. I purchased it online and got a text message that it was ready for pick up in less than ten minutes. When we got to rhe store, the friendly staff rretrieved my item in just a few short minutes. We were out the door with our hit Christmas gift in no time but decided to shop the store with the time we saved.

    The drone was fun once it was able to run but it took time before it could be used. The battery doesn't last long Still haven't figured out the camera feature

    This was my first drone I have purchased and it was nothing less than what I expected. Pros: Removable wheels for crash support and maneuverability. Connects to your phone so no need to tote around a controller. Cons: The battery life leads more to be desired, but if you are not wanting to spend multiple hundreds on a drone for a good battery, then it is not terrible. The box says that the batteries get 6-8 minutes of use but I have had it go 10-15 minutes normally from fully charged. While connecting to your phone is very cool, the controls can be difficult to get used to. Overall this is an enjoyable drone and if you are not looking for anything serious then its a decent buy for the price. A beginner can pick it up easy enough. The pictures are sometimes unclear but for a $100 drone, its definitely not the worst. I would recommend if you are just looking for some small fun thing to occupy your time for about 10 minutes.

    Bought this to practice flying indoors because of all the snow. I have a Parrot Bebop drone and the controls are the same. The Spider is fun. The only drawback is the battery life and the 2002 cell phone camera. It take horrible photos. But like I said, I bought it to practice flying.

    This was so easy to set up and tons of fun. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because it doesn't have long battery life at all. It had to be recharged after a very short time. Other than that, it's a great purchase.

    I bought this as a gift for my dad and he absolutely loves it! The drone is surprisingly responsive and even does cool tricks like flips with the touch of a button. Entertainment for the family! My one knock on this product is that the battery life is extremely short. We ended up buying more batteries to keep charged while using the drone.

    its just sweet in a few days I'm going up walls playing with it like a car on the floor doing flips while flying just so much fun. The battery is only 8 min so when your done you want more so extra battery's are great! And it's great that it's stability is just something else. You can let go and it will just huver that's what makes it great while it hovers you can practice hights turning and after a few hours it's just VERRY fun and kool

    Really like this Parrot mini-drone. Easy to control right from my iPhone. Gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it is sometimes not as responsive to controls as other times.

    Surprisingly easy to control after about 10 min practice. This is a decent quad-copter if you want to learn how to control one - particularly valuable if you plan on investing in a more high-end version.

    This drone is not the best but for the price it does its job very well. The battery life is its main negative point. After a full charge i can use it only for 12-14 minutes. That said, it has got awesome mobile app that helps you control the drone perfectly. I was able to make it roll on the ceiling, perform vaults mid air, start the drone by just pushing it mid air, maneuver it with ease. Recommend it to anyone.
