Quirky design with easy-to-use functionality
It comes with a unique design with the most unusual look of the ubiquitous drones on the market now. Seriously, I think it looks like a remote with fans attached. The point that I think has a strange design is as for the fans, there are 2 fans on each side, left and right sides, total 4. The frame that holds the fans is designed in a grid with a pattern of curves and straight lines alternating back and forth. The fans on both sides are foldable. When folded, it is a very small drone that girls can easily carry in a shoulder bag. It is very lightweight, weighing only 125 grams. It comes in two colors to choose from: black and white. The white color looks simple and clean. The drone is made of plastic. When you touch it, it feels like Game.
HOVER AIR X1 is a drone that does not rely on a remote or joystick to control it. Can fly manually. Which is very good for people who don't want to waste time learning how to fly a drone, just unpack the box and you can fly it without having to make many modifications.

Super cool with the easiest flight control function ever.
For HOVER AIR X1, the flight of the drone is controlled automatically with 5 functional modes. We can select the flight mode by pressing the selector button located directly on the drone which has an on/off button. And the control button when we press to use the function mode, there will be a green light on HOVER AIR Follow us as we move our bodies in different directions, but we still need to install the HOVER APP to use, such as transferring still images and video files, and recording our voices through the smartphone microphone because it has Noise canceling feature when we talk. When we record a vlog, we can talk continuously, but the disadvantage is that the sound is still not as clear as using a wireless microphone.
Let's take a look at the function of the drone's flight mode.
- Hover mode The first primary mode when we launch HOVER AIR is because artificial intelligence is used to assist in the work. When parking, simply open your palm and the HOVER AIR X1 instantly stops in your hand.
- Follow the situation Follow Mode: It's like you have a personal photographer following you at all times. The camera will always place us in the center of the frame.
- Orbit mode The fly around mode is interesting because it will fly around us 360 degrees and can rotate 1 to 3 times with the camera focusing on us as the center point and then it will fly around us like a drone.
- Minimize mode This mode flies back away from us, capturing the feeling of the camera zooming away to a wide angle, which can be considered good. But it will only exceed a few metres. We can set different distances in the Hover app.
- Bird's eye mode In this mode, the camera will adjust its head down below the machine and then fly higher and higher like a bird flying and looking down at the ground. This mode takes photos and they look absolutely stunning. But the flight range of HOVER AIR X1 may not be very high. But with a wide-angle camera lens, you will get a fairly wide image.

There are also two special star modes: Snapshot mode and Dolly mode and we have to select these two functions in the app.
- Snapshot mode Photography will still be at a maximum image resolution of 2K, but I must first say that the quality of the image files is more suitable for viewing on a screen than we would use for large print jobs because the sharpness and image detail are good enough
- Dolly mode In this mode, the HOVER AIR X1 will follow in front of us as if we had a photographer waiting to photograph us. This pose is good, and gives you perspective as if we had a team helping us take the photos.
The recommended modes work fairly well, and are suitable for beginners flying drones or shooting with family and friends. It helps to capture still photos and clips from new angles. The things to be careful about when flying HOVER AIR X1 are the white surface and water surface. Because this camera flies with AI technology from the camera sensor located at the bottom of the drone. When it encounters a smooth white surface or water surface, it will get lost in the wrong direction. But she did not fall, but rather flew confusedly. When flying, we must be in an area with texture. The battery can only fly for 10 minutes. The battery must be replaced with a new one. Another big limitation of the HOVER AIR X1 is that it is forbidden to fly at night. Or in low light because it will not be able to land and will lose its direction.
There is also a dedicated mode where we can use an app on our smartphone to control the HOVER AIR. The camera is set to Full HD at 60fps, which is fine for general use. For example, filming clips for YouTube and social media. If you really like resolution, you can also shoot in 2K in some modes.
