The DJI Flip is DJI's latest ultra-low-cost drone, but while it is cheap, it still offers plenty of smart features and solid camera quality.

Four short months after introducing the truly palm-size Neo, DJI is back with another pint-sized consumer drone. The Flip continues the drone giant’s

The DJI Flip marks the first in a new series of “all-in-one” drones from the Chinese aerial photography and videography experts. Weighing less than 249g (8.7oz), the compact drone has been designed for maximum portability and measures in at just 136×62×165 mm when folded – it’s small enough to be almost pocketable.

At $439, the DJI Flip could be a good starting point for people who don’t typically buy drones. You can unfold it, launch it from your hand with a single button, land it on your hand again, or optionally use joysticks, all while capturing higher-quality photos and video than the immediate competition.

I tested the new DJI Flip drone and you can read what I think about it's design, functionality, performance and more.

There’s one missing part. The DJI Flip can’t be used as an FPV (first person view) drone, with one of DJI’s nifty first-person view headsets, and it doesn’t support DJI’s motion controller either.

Like the Neo, the $440 DJI Flip can launch from your palm, but it includes better object avoidance tech and a bigger sensor.

DJI just presented the Flip drone as a new, compact, and foldable product ideal for portability and aerial selfies. The DJI Flip features a 1/1.3-inch image sensor for high-quality video recording and innovative propeller protection.
