## Description

Product description SIMREX X800 DRONE

Review: Great beginner drone for kids and adults! - I bought the Simrex X800 drone as a Christmas present for my son. He had a few drones picked out in his desertcart “cart” that seemed to be much more focused as a toy. I came across this one because it seemed to have better features compared to the others he selected and was a little more geared towards a starter drone and not just a cheap toy drone. He really wanted a drone with a camera and one you could use a phone with attached to the controller. This had that and seemed to be at a great price. When he opened this one up on Christmas, he couldn’t wait to try it out! This drone is a lot of fun and easy to setup. I installed the Simrex app on my phone and was able to connect easily without issue. I showed my son how to turn on the drone and connect the controller but I did help with the app startup and connection. The camera’s quality is actually better than expected. For this price range, you typically get 720p but this definitely looked 1080p as listed. We have flown the drone a few days and it is a blast. One of the days was fairly windy, so it did struggle to maintain a perfect position. This would be expected as wind impacts even more expensive drones. Having 2 batteries is nice. We get about 20 minutes of fly time for each battery. This does vary a little depending on aggressive you fly the drone. The controls are pretty subtle which I like for my son. What I mean is this drone isn’t too fast where it can get away from you pretty quickly if you don’t know what you are doing. I would say this is a great beginner’s drone as it gets you used to drone controls. My son did want it to zip around like the racing drones so he was a little disappointed at first. I told him this drone is more for fun and taking cool videos and photos. I showed him the flip mode and he was having the drone do front flips, back flips, and side flips all over the place. That is by far his favorite part. We have used the emergency stop function a few times and it has worked great! It has saved us from getting stuck in trees or crashing into solar panel roofs. You just have to make sure you really want the drone to stop because it will immediately shut off and come crashing down. We take the drone to a big grass park nearby so we are not concerned with the crash landings. It seems to hold up just fine landing in the grass. The are a few cons that I can think of… (1) The battery life, which is pretty much an issue with a lot of budget drones, at least you get 2 with this one! (2) The controller’s phone mounting adapter. The mounting clamp for the phone can be a little precarious which makes me worried as my son is running around chasing the drone that is flying through the air. It hasn’t fallen out yet, but I feel like it might just be a matter of time since the controller is so light and the phone is so heavy. I would take caution while using the controller with the phone and with kids holding the controller. Not a deal breaker if you use this responsibly, as you should with all drones. Overall I think this is a great beginner’s drone to get into the hobby and not have to worry about destroying expensive equipment as you learn. I am very pleased with it and I know my son loves it!
Review: Fun for the whole family! - I recently bought the SIMREX X800 drone for my young nephew for Christmas, and it’s been an absolute hit! This drone strikes the perfect balance between fun and functionality, making it an excellent choice for beginners of all ages. My nephew, who’s new to drones, quickly got the hang of the controls thanks to its intuitive design and simple setup process. Watching him confidently fly it and pull off 360° flips has been so rewarding, it’s clear this drone was made with young users in mind. What surprised me even more is how much fun I’ve had with it as an adult! The SIMREX X800 is not just a toy, it’s also a fantastic entry level drone for adults looking to get into flying. The headless mode, one-key takeoff/landing, and altitude hold features make it easy for anyone to start, even if you’ve never touched a drone before. It’s a great way for parents, aunts, or uncles like me to bond with their kids while learning a new skill. The stability during flight is remarkable for such a compact and lightweight drone, and its foldable design makes it incredibly convenient to carry around. My nephew loves taking it to the park, and I’ve even taken it for a spin myself. The battery life is solid for its price range, and having an extra battery on hand means the fun can last even longer. Whether you’re buying it for a child, a teenager, or even an adult who wants to learn the basics of drone flying, the SIMREX X800 is an incredible choice. It’s affordable, durable, and delivers so much value for its price. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable starter drone that’s fun for the whole family!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to Fly For Beginner!
*by D***. on December 12, 2024*

This is my first drone so I can't compare it to others but my experience with this item has been superb. The instructions were clear and the drone was easy to set up. Took a few minutes to install the optional blade guards and I read through the operating instructions as I charged both batteries. The drone feels like it is built well. I like the folding wings which make it compact and easy to store. Having never flown a drone before, I made sure to use this in my living room with lots of open space. I used the auto launch button on the controller to take off and land the drone until I was used to the controls. The drone will launch itself and then hover about 3-4 feet from the ground, waiting for you take take control with the joysticks. Pressing the button again will make the drone land itself softly. I also enabled headless mode which made the drone steer in the direction I moved the joystick no matter which direction the front of the drone was facing. The drone reacted as expected to the controls and is easy to steer. I did crash once when I got too close to a wall but neither the drone nor the wall suffered any damage. The battery lasted over 20 minutes of in-flight time which I thought was excellent. The batteries are easy to swap and I was flying again in under a minute. I experimented with the different speeds on my second flight and found the drone to be faster and more responsive on speed level 3. I took the drone outside to try out the auto flip function which worked flawlessly. I tried out the app and the video quality was very good. All in all, I'm very pleased with this drone and I think it is an excellent value.
