Our Spark is returning to DJI a bit worse for wear. As a rule, we try to send products back to companies in the same state they arrived, but that's a hazard of real-world testing a product with four spinning blades: sometimes things end up covered in dirt and grass and the sacrificial blood of one...

DJI's Spark drone is an exquisitely-built, incredibly easy-to-fly drone, but 16 minutes of flight time is not enough, especially when the reality is more like 10 to 12 minutes. There are still so many things to love about DJI's tiny, selfie-snapping drone.

Goondu review: DJI Spark punches above its weight
There are times when you wish you could really extend out your selfie sticks perhaps a little further to capture more of the background. Perhaps even get a "higher" perspective of things and take a shot from above the trees.

DJI Spark Unboxing, Quick Review: The Little Drone That Could
DJI wowed the crowds when they pulled the wraps off the Mavic Pro in September last year. It was the smallest drone by the famed manufacturer at that time. Capable of shooting clear and crips 4K video, it was aimed towards enthusiasts and filmmakers alike.

DJI Spark Review – The Best Mini Drone with Camera
The DJI Spark is one of the best budget drones out there and is a lot of fun to fly. It's not perfect, but it's a really neat toy.
Pros:
- The Spark is small
- affordable
- and portable yet impressively capable
- ActiveTrack and QuickShots are really neat + video quality is pretty good at 1080p30
- Easy to use with plenty of obstacle avoidance features + Return-to-Home
- Can fly drone only using gesture controls
Cons:
- Short battery life at ~15 minutes on a single charge
- Gimbal is only 2-axis
- whereas more expensive drones like the MAVIC Pro use a 3-axis stabilizer
- Would love to have 1080p60 for fast-moving subjects
- Does not handle winds well
- Does not come with a remote controller…you have to use gesture...

Small drones are not new. Toy-sized quadcopters have been on the market for years helping kids (and dads) start flying for a relatively reasonable price and not much expertise. Yet small drones that can do almost anything a big drone can do That's new.
Pros:
- It's super fun
- especially for the price
Cons:
- Gesture control could use some work

DJI Spark review: The tiny drone that makes you feel like a Jedi
The simple fact is that the Spark really has no competition right now. There's nothing equipped with the same number of high-end features as the DJI Spark that isn't at least twice as big. It's brilliant.
Pros:
- Almost impossibly small
- Lots of smart sensor technology
Cons:
- Limited battery life stops it from being serious film drone
- Gestures aren't reliable yet

DJI Spark review: A delightful little drone weighed down by an abysmally unstable Android app
Time for the big question. If you are in the market for a compact drone, is the DJI Spark one you should consider buying If the app worked as it should, my answer would be a resounding yes. However, with all its issues, my answer is a more hesitant maybe, and even that maybe comes with asterisks.
Pros:
- Portable size If you've spent any time with the Mavic
- or Phantom
- you'll be shocked by just how minuscule the Spark is
- Impact sensors Front and underside impact sensors work pretty well at keeping the Spark from crashing into the ground or large
- stationary objects
- Durability and build quality...
Cons:
- Android Application The app's functionality and polish is excellent, its stability (on Android at least) is not
- Frequent app crashes while tethered to a $500 drone is not acceptable, Battery life The manual says a battery will last 15 minutes, but it's more like 10-12.
