I love a good drone, and as a reviews writer at Tom's Guide, I get to test the latest creations from the likes of DJI, Potensic and others. With the launch of the DJI Neo and the DJI Air 3S, the tech giant had a busy 2024, and it shows no signs of slowing down. On January 14, the DJI Flip was unveiled, but I got to fly it for a full month before the official announcement. If you've been holding back on buying a drone, the time has come — trust me, you'll regret not getting this flippin' fantastic drone.
The pro-level Air 3S ($1,099) remains my favorite drone and it brings me unbridled joy, but the Flip comes in close in second place. For beginners or novice pilots, it's a great investment thanks to its safety-first, sub-250g design. There's much to like about this drone: from its shooting specs to how easy it is to fly, even without a controller.
