I bought this drone for my son for Christmas. We've gone through a few drones because they're usually short-lived. This drone is by far the best I've found for it. It is easy to use and control. Do small somersaults in the air. (This is his favorite part). It glows and looks very cool when you fly it at night. The battery life is as expected. Normally, drone battery life is short, but this drone only has 3 batteries, which is great! My son charges 2 batteries while using the other and just turns them off when he needs to. Great drone! Definitely recommend!
