Great 4k videos and so easy to use. A winner!!!
I have had the Extended for about 2 weeks now and Purchased it at BestBuy. It is my first drone and have been reading the manual, viewing online reviews and videos, and applicable FAA regulations. It has no object avoidance sensors so be very careful if you fly it close to trees or bushes. I have lightly crashed it on a couple of occasions while trying to figure out the controls and damaged some of the props. It was easy to replace them with the extra props included in the extended version, which also includes 2 extra batteries (total of 3 batteries) and a great storage bag. I have the Anafi with the Skycontroller connected to my iphone and the software is very comprehensive, feature rich and smooth. Image quality is excellent (see attached photo). This drone is easy to operate, has 25 minutes of flight time and it is very low noise. People around me hardly notice I am flying a drone. I am very happy with the Anafi and would buy it again.

Great Drone!
Great drone, I've owned previous drones along with the Parrot Bebop drone and this unit is miles better than past models. The camera on this drone is great and the ability to change angels 180 degrees is a nice addition. The flight time is also much better than previous parrot products, I haven't pushed it for the full flight time but can have done multiple over 20 minutes without pushing it to zero. The carrying case that comes with the extended model is also very nice to have making it easy to haul the drone with you anywhere. Only complaints on the drone is the size of the controller. Phones with a case will not fit in the controller, you will have to take your case off. I prefer to fly with an iPad as well which past models would hold but still works with the product. I would suggest getting the extended pack as it provides you with three batteries. The charging of the batteries is a little slow and takes over an hour so having three should give you plenty of flight time.

Great quality drone at a great price!
Great quality drone for the money! I'm thrilled with the photo and video quality from the Anafi. Very stable and easy to fly. I've flown in winds over 25 mph with no issues at all. I've been learning the "dronies" (automated features) and they give awesome results. I've found the at the 5.8 ghz setting works best in urban environments when there is a lot of wi-fi interference. I've flown up to 400 foot elevation and quite a distance away (while still maintaining visual line of sight) and am impressed with the Anafi.

Super quiet and easy to fly.
I did some research before I purchased this drone for my wife’s Christmas present (it was what she had asked for). This is the first drone for us and I was worried about crashing it and wasting the money on it. I can tell you that it’s super quiet and very easy to fly. We tried it on a windy day and I was really surprised it didn’t have any issues. I was worried that it might struggle with the high elevations in the mountains but it had no problems at 7,000 ft. The little camera is quite adequate for both stills and video. I’m sure one could use it for professional real estate photography and for how quiet it is it wouldn’t disturb the neighbors.

Worth Considering
So this is only my second I guess you say professional drone ever. My first was the Yuneec Q500. This is so much better plus I got the fly more combo for $494! First as always I would recommend you get ND filters for this. Pro's and Con's Pro's: very light weight Small easy to carry So far the video footage in 4K is stunning It's very responsive like a little bumble bee. you have a 180 degree tilt which NO drone has so that gives you more creativity. good flight time, not as good as DJ Maverick that's around 32-35 minutes, but you will get between 20-25 on this plus you have three batteries. Con's : No voidance sensors ! Range is not great Cannot Film @60 frams in 4K! Like I mentioned earlier you have less flight time than some other drones about 5-10 minutes less. (now flight time across the board on drones has to do with: if you're using 4K, how fast you fly, how far you fly, and how high you fly) It's only a 1/2" sensor something I didn't mention earlier but I am now. With the newer DJI having 1" sensors! Still the image quality is really good! I haven't dug deep into the app but doesn't seem to have a lot of features, or you have to pay for special features! So in the end would I recommend this drone? YES if the few con's aren't a big deal to me there's only a few like no sensor for avoidance but nether did my last drone. Having a bigger sensor would be nice, but to be honest so far the footage looks so good very little if any color grading. It's a little touchy side to side or when you stop quick as well. I hope this review helps please feel free to comment or if you have any questions.
