If I buy a drone it'll be the DJI Mini 3 Pro. It costs around $700 so I'm not sure if that's considered budget or not. But it has a 4k camera that swivels and weighs only 249g that'll fit in your pocket, and the controller has it's own dedicated screen. I've never owned a drone before, so for me, this would be my first try.
@@UnboxAnalysisOfficial Me neither, but maybe one day, if I save for one. Also, I wouldn't buy one unless it could earn its worth. Could be for any reason, like making kids happy, but it'd have to justify the price.
@@aaronmicalowe Might be a good use case to buy a cheap one, and tell the kid/kids, if you can use this for 6 months or so without breaking it then we will get you a good one
FYI, the reason for the different prices is because they are being offered by different resellers. Temu handles the money collection and shipping for many different companies overseas that each do their own pricing, just like Amazon does in the United States. In the time I have been dealing with Temu I have seen the same items with many different prices. You just have to look long enough to get the best deals.
Temu is a collection of different sellers; you are essentially shopping multiple stores in one place. The sellers determine the price, so it's not fair to say price differences are a TEMU scam.
@unboxanalysis1 as a potential subscriber after reading your comment you just invalidated any point of me even finishing the video. People want honest reviews not exaggerated reviews. I get that you did it for exposure to generate more income but it shouldn't be at the cost of someone else's income.
Na ya got it all wrong. Not for exposure / income. and its certainly not at the cost of anyones income. I exaggerated it to bring attention to it so people can Save money. You're seeing it as the opposite reason of why I did it. If people read "scam" they will watch to see what that scam is, and they will pay more attention, thus learning that there are different prices there and helping them see that. @@Floatup
The 1st one only had altitude old so its going to be pushed by the wind. I would say that's an indoor drone. The 2nd one likely did not have gps but it did at least have an optical flow sensor which made it a bit more stable. The 3rd one had geofencing which is why it had no range. You should be able to change that in the settings. The 4th one had brushed coreless motors. The downward facing camera is a camera but is really an optical flow sensor which assists in holding altitude. If it did have obstacle avoidance it would only be for forward movement , no other direction. All of them should have had dual to triple rates which would have helped to fly in the wind. They don't have blades they have propellers or props. the ones that collapse are called folding props. its for space when stored more than anything. When you crash you must throttle off. the motors will likely be ok but if you force stop a propeller while under power you will damage the esc (electronic speed control). All of the folding designs can be attributed to DJI, which to my knowledge released the first examples of the design. As you said most manufacturers have since adopted a similar design. Sorry, I could not help myself but to add to your descriptions and info. Good, informative video though. I am always curious to see the new entry level toy grade drones. They are more fun to fly. the DJI's, Autel's, and Parrott"s are more akin to operating a machine rather than actively flying something.
The rotator blade provides lift and forward thrust, and is considered to be a wing. The folding wing for helicopters has been around for a long time in Naval aviation I could be wrong but I think it was invented by Leroy Grumman in the mid 1940s. It provided more storage place in hangars and onboard ships.
That's happening on Amazon, too. I was left frustrated when shopping for a flashlight recently. I bought a flashlight listed as 6000 lumen flashlight which as I noticed later was also sold as 2000 lumen by different seller under different brand name, but everything looked identical. The flashlight performs worse than my 300 lumen flashlight which I was looking to replace. I find that on temu it's easier to find the cheapest option
Yes this. There are tons of things on temu that are sold on Amazon for double the cost or more. Some you can even find in stores at a massive markup. I think temu is so inexpensive because many manufacturers are selling direct and they must be doing enough volume to be okay with wholesale pricing.
A HUGE caution on Temu electrics from my own experience: I've had several electronics melt and/or catch fire! The most recent item from temu was a car cigarette lighter extension with built-in fuse protection literally melted inside the cigarette plug and caught fire while I was driving! Many of thier batteries also randomly catch fire. They simply don't have the same safety standards that we have in most other developed countries...
@@UnboxAnalysisOfficial Anything electrical with built-in fuse protection that STILL catches fire right after you bought it is an epic fail! Just one electrical fire is too many, let alone several from the same company all in a short period of time. My life and my property are worth more than saving a few bucks on very poorly made electronics. I'm so confident in how poorly made their electronics are that I'm willing to bet money that you have other viewers who have also had their stuff literally catch on fire.
@@TXEROXT I would hope if other viewers had this they would have left a comment, and i read all of them! What did you buy that had the fuse protection that utterly failed? I can try to order it and see if it will as well
@TXEROXT why are you so confident their electronics are so poorly made? Your experience is with one product from one manufacturer. There are countless products from thousands of manufacturers on what amounts to an online market. I agree that what happened with you was unacceptable. Reminds me of when Ford motor company had a safety campaign on most Middle because the brake fluid level sensors were shorting out and burning vehicles to the ground.
@@courier11sec just because I only gave one example doesn't mean that's the only example I draw from. My confidence in their horribly made electronic products comes from dozens of failed car parts, dozens of shoddy underperforming tools, and chips and batteries that don't even work at all. Don't even get me started on there SD chips and other memory devices that, although may actually be the amount of gigabytes they say they are, they are not up to par for modern electronics. So for example, their SD chips might be one terabyte but every device you put them in says it isn't a high speed data transfer chip and therefore not compatible and this applies to cameras, drones, phones, quite literally every electronic device I have put them in, even including trail cams that shouldn't require a high transfer rate and yet their chips still fail. Add to that, if you buy a dozen items that all fail, they still only allow one return per order no matter how badly flawed or failed their products are. At least every single item that has failed on me that I've gotten from Amazon I've got either a full refund or a full replacement. Every battery/ battery pack I've purchased from Temu has also failed miserably in less than 6 months and either caught fire or won't even hold a charge after barely a dozen uses.
I think the X26 Batwing would make a good addition to my emergency kit. We live on the east coast in a hurricane prone area, so the stability and decent camera would make it useable for surveying damage around/near our home. At around 60 bucks it's practically disposable.
I would suggest a cheap drone with decent wide angle camera (110 deg) and SD card slot (for DVR) such as Snaptain SP500/SP510 or Eachine E520S. Either would be great for surveying areas near a home and cheap enough to be not a big deal if it breaks. Most of other cheap chinese drones have narrow angle camera (60 deg or less) and no SD card slot for DVR.
Just like Amazon they have many distributors, Like American cars, a New FORD is 40k or 60K depends which dealership you do to .... not FORD doing it...dealers. Im 50 I remember when Amazon was cheaper also TEMUs prices will rise in the future
Not really sure if they will rise, wish.com has been out for quite awhile and they still have the crazy low prices. Maybe its a chinese company thing not sure though
Your reviews were less than objective, on several levels: - TEMU represents different sellers, and not from its own platform - object avoidance IR is a function of lightning, so in low light, it will perform at an optimal level - you can't accuse a brand of cloning, esp as the technology is from an Open Source, that anyone can access. Devs like DJI, Parrot, Autel and 3DR have their own proprietary technology, that have registered trade marks So you can be a little more objective next time
Finds multiple resellers offering the same product at very different prices: "Guys I found a scam!" Wait until you find out about gas stations, grocery stores, car dealerships, bottle shops..
When using this type of cheap drones you always have to calibrate, some by button, others by lowering the two levers down and out, the anti-shock system of these drones is with the infrared method and in the light environment that you use it does not work, It is mostly for indoor use. Anyway it was a good informative video, thank you
I have to speak up for places like Temu and Wish. I've ordered many things from them both, from knives and sling shots to zop ties and drones, drill bits and lamps. Almost everything was great. The things I had issues with, they refunded my money and did not require me to send it back. I found this video while searching to find a drone like the one I just got from them, but can't find anything close. It's a small one and looks great(waiting on battery to charge now) and it appears to have 3 lens on its front on a "gimble" and a front and rear lens on top. Foldable wings. I haven't had any problem with any of the other two drones u bought from Temu. I have gotten exactly what I expected. Don't expect super duper quality, expect cheap but good stuff. Also I have a self opening knife I can shave with I've carried for 2yrs now and am extremely happy with it. It's my EDC.
I just use my DJI drones for personal use. I have four now. The first was a purchase for a friend who needed money so sold me his Mavic Air. Then I bought two from a guy on FB marketplace. Then another one on marketplace. I enjoy flying them and keep one with me in my car. I foresee a use for them on some of the projects I work on with the movement of oversize loads. I enjoy your videos. Thank you.
That X26 Batman would be tempting of the 3. Given the price point it's not horrible. I would have fun flying something like that with my kids.I noticed a comment about hurricane prone areas and using this to scout damage safely. Amazing point I never thought of for getting a drone. Definitely want to add that to the hurricane emergency kit at the house.
Bought a drone from amazon kinda like these but little more high quality with a camera, but the camera is as good as either a vhs camera or your first drones camera. with todays pixel resolution (1920 x 1080) but i still like it, i can calibrate it and make it fast as i want (kinda) and make a 360 degrees flip (pretty cool). But after all these minuses, i like it. Good video👍
Hey thanks, Honestly to get a half way decent drone with a nice camera (4k) you have to spend around 200$. The roku drones are really nice, and the holy stone are awesome for the price!
Really enjoyed you video review of the drones. I am a recently retired guy that has wanted to get into flying drones. My personal opinion is I like the X26 Batman. This would be a great entry level drone without breaking this retirees bank account. Thank you.
I got the 3rd one shown for free. Wife surprised me with it and I flew it around the house with out the cam enabled and had alot of fun chasing the dogs and cats with it. Ran it into the wall a few times and it still works. For free it's a hell of a fun experience.
I bought the S2S drone and liked it but was testing the range. I flew it into the light breeze and got it out about 40 or 50 yards and lost contact. Then the wind changed and I watched it fly 200 yards over the trees and never saw it again.
It used to be a fairly common practice for a large store (say, Walmart or Home Depot) to have the same item in several places in the store, each at a different price. These days, that would be harder to do (but not impossible, if each one had its own bar code). Kind of the same thing you noticed here.
Just FYI, I have a DJI AVata and DJI Mini 4k, both have gps landing but do the same thing for return home. If you call it home when around 30ft from the home site they both have issues landing. If you go a good distance they properly land pretty close to the original home point. Interference also can reduce its accuracy.
Nice check out, I believe the S128 Mini Drone wasn’t to bad. I wouldn’t buy the rest though. I bought one on Amazon for $60. Its A F417, brushless motors two cameras and and wasn’t bad , had a little trimming at first but it was windy but for the price, wasn’t too bad. Thanks for the review.
I'm going to buy the S128 Mini for my 4-year old. I only wish some of these cheap drones would enable agro/manual mode. I mean why not, right. All they have to do is disable stabilization via a button. PS: Sleeping with a fan is a must, even in winter!
I like the x26,I think it would be great for a beginner like me,I would use it to see the landscape and any wildlife in the area,I always wanted a drone but could never afford one,thanks for the review,I just came across your videos and think there great.❤
I ordered 3 things on my first order. 1. 2 glass mugs came in pieces 2. Key chain was badly scratched 3. I forget what it was. Threw away everything I got. Never ordered from them again.
X26pro is sold for 272 RMB in China, which is equivalent to 37.9 US dollars. It may be due to high national logistics or customs tax fees, but it is sold for 63.63 US dollars in your area
Oh boy, I ordered before watching. I'm getting the E88 and a blue $13 indoor cheapy. I fly RC airplanes and build my own electronics, my short term goal is familiarity, understanding connectivity, and simple handling. I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to be doing this. Excellent Video.
I'm drawn to the E99 Pro drone due to its beginner-friendly nature, catering to individuals like myself who are new to this. Its controls are easy to use, the flight stability is reliable, and the design is intuitive, making the process of learning drone piloting effortless. The drone offers assisted flight modes that allow skill-building with assurance, all packaged in a compact and sturdy design. If gifted the E99 Pro drone, I'd not only embark on an exciting new hobby but also initiate a remarkable exploration into the realm of drone technology
Another detail to take in consideration is yes it might the same drone but the packages change, those Fly packages goes from one battery to three, some of them come with other cool things like multi charges etc…
Baaaah. For $170 but the holy Stone 720r their flagship model goes for $400 normally cuz it was on sale for a lightning deal. I thought that was incredible deal can't wait to fly it. 3 axis gimbal and electronic stabilization I scored
Great video as normal @unboxanalysis1! I'd pick that X26 Batwing. Cool looking, love the self leveling on it too. I'd give it to my Dad so he could use it to use as a learning drone, and to check his roof after storms for damage!
Not bad considering the low price. However, unless you are in a very tight budget, I would still recommend spending a little more and get something of better quality. Even if you don't get a DJI you can get something like a HolyStone 175D for a reasonable price and you'll have a drone that is incredibly good, and won't break the bank.
1. Turn the speeds up on these cheap toy drones to battle the wind MUCH more efficiently 2. What you called a scam is just that there are multiple "stores" on Temu and they all paid different prices for the same drone, so they're simply charging what they need to in order to turn a profit. It's up to the consumer to shop around for the best deal
Agreed! I see they are different sellers, I am just trying to bring attention to that and let people know! Scam was a bit of added drama so people see it! Thanks for the comment!
Alliexpress is the same; you can easily see the same product at different prices. In China, the provincial government supports specific shops with subsidies, such as the Tesla car, which has a $7500 rebate from the US government. Depends on the industry policy of different support to gain market share. When the money ran out, the price returned to a particular price. No one can sell products at a loss for long. It is the same for many startups in Silicon Valley in the US. When angel money dries up, the strart up needs to raise prices. That seems to be the case in most Chinese products, we are the early beta tester growing eComerce model.
Amazon does this too. You'll see the same drone with different listings. That's because same drone different flight time and range. Different controller maybe or updated circuits depending on what you want. With drones it's good to really read the description.
Not if anyone has posted this info but , if you leave your purchase choice in the basket and leave the app , within a few days the price drops as “ you are selected as a special customer “ .
If I may, I'd like to explain the reason for the different prices found for the X26 Batwing (and any other product found on Temo for that matter). It is NOT a scam. Temu (like DH Gate and Wish) is a company who gives direct access to factories in China. There are many factories who manufacture the same product. Notice the different sellers name on each page you looked at. This is found just above the price. These companies are the product of a treaty made a few years back between the US and China where we, as consumers, could have access to direct factory pricing. Now, a word of advice for those of you new to Temu. When selecting a product, I strongly suggest you look at the comments with photos. If the consumer pics are convincing to you then you'll be happy with your purchase. With clothing, use measurements. Measure yourself, you won''t regret it. Don't go by size as these differ from maker to maker.
All the drones I've purchased from temp fly and react just fine.Most are very cheaply made but if you don't expect a lot for 20 dollars,,,you don't get disappointed a lot!
First off, great reviews! 👍 Of the drones that you reviewed, 1- X26 Batwing ($63.63) 2- Mainly for the GPS stability. 3- I would put it in a “Bug-out bag” or my “Camping gear”. The GPS stability of it at higher altitudes and recharge ability of the remote would be great for assessment of “Forest fires” that may be near me when camping(escape routs) or the ability to assess what may be going on around me before venture into danger! 🤔😉 Great affordable “survival and or safety” product to have on hand! 😉👍👍
If you have the money and want a decent drone look at the DJI mini series those are really good I have the DJI mini 2 se it flies very well has a nice 2.7k camera and is super stable even with some more heavier winds I got mine for £250 ($300)
New to this game....have been on the fence for a long time. Looking for something that is more inline for a beginner, but useful. I'm 70 years old and not into speed, or a lot of aerial acrobatics. Looking for something that is fairly stabile and a usable camera to look around the property and house for damage. Not sure how much range the X26 Batwing has, but it does seem to be a good fit for what I'm looking for in a small drone. Thanks for the reviews and the giveaway.
The x-26 bat wing is my favorite seems like the best one for your money on Temu. I would use it for making my RU-vid channel videos better, also to make videos with my kids.
You mustn’t shop online platforms, especially like Temu, Wish and others very often. Many many items listed dozens of times for different prices and reviews. Any seller can list same products on these platforms for whatever price they choose.
I’ve never owned a drone, so the easiest to fly would be of interest to me. Looks like that’s the X26. I’d use it to shoot video of my band and acoustic duo as well as some of the cancer fundraising events I play. I’m also going on a cruise late November and it would be fun to shoot in the various locations.
I hope you find something good to get started. DJI Mini 3 comes complete at Costco at $429 dollars and is a great starter drone. If you're looking for a good starter drone that isn't a toy.
video your band? as long as you know there's no audio on drones so you won't hear anything. also flight time is about 5-7mins on these cheapo's, so you'll have to learn fast 🤣
I like the S128 Mini drone because it's designed for beginners like me. Its user-friendly controls, stable flight, and intuitive design make learning drone piloting a breeze. I can enjoy assisted flight modes and build my skills confidently with this compact and durable option. Gifting me the S128 Mini drone would not only introduce me to an exciting new hobby but also mark the beginning of an incredible journey into the world of drone technology.
Something to look out for next time is the gimbal. I feel it's a must. I'd also like to know if they where gimbaled or it was a fake to look like a gimbal.
Whats a good way to test that? I believe the one had a gimbal in it, due to its stability without input. But open to some other ideas, I do plan to do more drones in the future!
I was thinking about it. If you lock onto a subject the gimbal will attempt auto leveling. So if you locked it and moved it around the gimbal should shift around.
I like Temu quite a bit. There are some things that are just put on there to make money, but most are actually made pretty soundly because people want or need them
The E99 pro has the neatest camera quality of all! But I'm gonna have to go with the batwing because it has a neat design. The ariel is great too! I cant pick between the 3 but Im most certain me and my little brother will have fun playing with the drone so I guess I gotta go pick the ariel because it has 3 batteries so the fun actually last!
I like Drone 2 the best. The X26. I like that it handled the wind better even when you had it up in the air. If I won it I would use it just to fly around my property just for fun. If I could get the camera to work I would take some overhead shots
The second one does look the best. Thanks for doing this video been wanting a drone just to send up when camping and fishing. I like that it is more stable
Thanks for reviewing, and your words on each of the drones. Although I would like another drone, none of the drones you listed have qualities that would keep it being actively used by me. That said, I appreciate you give away what you review, and really dig how you're doing it, so gained a subscriber! Thanks!
Not really a scam temu doesn't make the prices it's the sellers that set the price! There are hundreds of sellers on temu that's why I check different sellers for lower prices then I order the item if you find a cheaper price temu customer service is pretty good at adjusting the price
I like the twenty five dollar drone I would like to get one to explore areas that it can get into without worrying about retrieving it from just to be able to get those videos with out risks to life and limb. I enjoy exploring dangerous areas but it’s only fun when it is safe. And exploring points of no return for me is where the best videos begin. Thank you for sharing this with us your video here restored my faith in Temu and others who are out there
If u know how Temu & Aliexpress works is that there are many different sellers (factory, warehouse, individuals, drop-shipping, companies) in China selling the same product at different price & different shipping fees.
Yeah ive noticed that from the research, There seems to be a lot of controversy over temu atm with their ... "employment practices" But since its sellers like amazon, who do you really blame idk
😅 I'm living lafayette Louisiana. I have the S150 brushless. The brushless x26 drone reminded me of the s150 that is supposed to have obstical avoidance, follow me mode, and more, that just don't seem to work. I got my son a E58. Even though my drone doesn't have the features as featured. I wish my boy could atleast have something closer to my s150 brushless because of how fun it is even in the wind. It's handling is great. Wish he could have the same fun I do.
4 listings will have 4 different prices because you are looking at an e-commerce platform where each seller is a different vendor with his own products and company. Just because few sellers are offering the same product doesnt mean they have to keep same price. Same with Amazon where you will find different prices for different vendors. Not sure how you didnt figure that one out...
Every time I've purchased an electrical item from Temu they came faulty. The worst being a head massager which had the charger port fall out during unboxing, I'll never shop with them again
Ive heard this from a few people and that just blows my mind, maybe ive just been extremely lucky. I've had very few electrical issues overall with the hundreds of things ive bought from there.
Thank you for your time and review. Anybody thinking of buying any of these cheap toy drones should rather save up and buy a decent entry level drone rather. The likes of MJX Bugs, JJRC and Hubsan. They have been making fabulous entry level drones for years now and they are damn good. They are proper GPS drones and are quality with great cameras. Perfect starter drones.
@@UnboxAnalysisOfficial : Believe me the Temu ones will fail dismally. The drones i mentioned are probably the best entry level drones that you can buy without breaking the bank. Plus all of them have accessories and spare parts available whenever needed.
Whoa... many drone companies using that design? Damn, dude... you're right! Now that you mention it, I see the automobile industry is also using similar designs! Same with television companies and computer companies! God damn... it's even in the toilet industry! It's almost as though there's such a thing as convergent evolution in design. 🙄
Well done Sir!; about time we had someone such as your good self taking the time an effort in reviewing these cheap Chinese "knock offs" with outrageous claims regards video quality, GPS, Optical flow and distance capabilities!!!!!!
I just try to show it how it is, they are not amazing, but for the price might be a great learning tool for kids who want to eventually get into the drone world without spending hundreds! Although if they had a decent way to put a nice camera on these, that would make them quite a bit more useful!
Honestly it isn't a scam that you're talking about. They are no different than Amazon where u also find same products with different prices. The reason that is, is because of company that they get it from they get them from different manufacturers.
In all these cases, you get what you pay for. I saw that Temu is offering DJI Drones for an unbelievable price. What do you think about the Temu sell for DJI Drones?
I have the drone pro, it seems to handle wind better than the one you got and with a little tinkering I was able to fix the drifting issue, I did however notice that the footage isn't great and it likes gain altitude randomly
These are just toys. Without GPS you may never get it back. The one unit that claimed to have GPS did not appear to really have it. A good drone will have GPS, a good camera, usually 4K, a gimbal to keep the camera steady while the drone is moving and a decent range of at least 1000 feet or more. Even the cheapest DJI drones have all of these features. They certainly cost more, but you get what you pay for. If this is just a fun thing for your kid, go for a Temu drone.
I bought an E99 Pro from Temu, came with 3 batteries that were supposed to be 3.7v 1800Mah they weren't they were 3.7v 500mah! What I wanted to know if it was a faux knock off. The first drone we ordered fell from the sky when the battery was drawn with out any warning. Do you think ordering from Temu is a good idea ordering anything is worth spending money on?
I’m a regular customer of Temu by far Temu didn’t disappoint me and they don’t use different pictures or other company name so there not scamming you I mean come on what you expect from 25 dollar drone actually they deliver more then they paid for
TeMu like Amazon, Walmart, etc are seller platforms where one seller can offer a better price over another platform. Is that really a scam or is it rather just good marketing practice?
Hey great video the drone I like is your drone and the 2 Temu drones you had in your video I had both of them I still have 1 drone I got from Temu and it's a Any RC Mini Folding drone. It's pretty cool if it had longer battery life it would be awesome. What I would do if I had your drone I would like to go to a Chattanooga Lookouts game and record some of the game. I love flying drones and I'm going to continue doing so.
I like the four prices in one drone. I already had one similar but gave it to a kid up the road from me. They don't have much money and he does enjoy flying it. If I win this one from you I'd probably give it away to a kid who needs some kindness in their life. Then maybe when they grow up they will pass along. Great videos!!!
