Holy Stone Drone HS175G

Overall, this feels like my second drone and I am hooked on the HolyStone quality. Simple to operate. Long runtime per charge. The camera is nice and simple to operate. For everyday flying, the range is perfect, long distance use.

From my experience, really fun and easy to navigate.

In regular use, this drone was easy to set up and easy to navigate. After spending some time with it, my only issues are that the built-in phone holder will not hold my iPhone 17 Pro Max with It’s case around it. For everyday flying, i’m going to have to figure some way to keep my phone in his protective case and still use it.

After spending some time with it, a well recommended beginner's drone. Easy to operate and very enjoyable to use, photos and videos!

In use, it feels a great starter drone with a decent camera. My interest was getting familiar with to fly not professional video. Overall, it does make very nice video to show my friends. The begginer setting is for very basic getting familiar with, but it has camera mode and sport mode speed settings. Operating in camera mode has been perfect for getting familiar with to fly.

So far, this drone is a solid purchase. Runtime per charge is really good, typically 20+ minutes each in "real life". Real life being taking photos, videos and lots of using it in the air around with change in direction. In regular use, overall, we're very happy with this drone, especially the return-to-home mode.

Overall, great drone! I've had the HS 175G for about a month and it's awesome for someone just starting out. In regular use, solid hovering, functional RTH, and fun to fly. After spending some time with it, the batteries last for about 22 minutes each and take 1.5 hours to charge. For everyday flying, i absolutely suggest this drone!

From my experience, great item. After spending some time with it, that’s the only reason for not giving 5 stars. In regular use, instructions concerning modes could be better.

I purchased this drone yesterday 5-24-26. After spending some time with it, charged it over night. For everyday flying, got it up and running in no time. So far, (read directions). Overall, you can not go wrong with this drone for the price, especially if you are a beginner like me. Camera quality is great ( the picture attached shows the quality and the distance at the time of using it in the air ). The return feature performs very well when the battery gets low. After spending some time with it, the distance is factory set to 60ft until you get use to the controls. The only negative that I’ve noticed is the runtime per charge runs out within 20 or 30 minutes but since it comes with 2 batteries it kinda makes up the run time.

It feels approachable for someone who is still learning the controls. The build feels capable of handling normal practice and minor bumps. It has enough speed to stay entertaining once you get comfortable. Overall, I am pleased with it.

A solid starter drone. Straightforward to control in the air. Overall, connecting and getting it running can be difficult at first. After that easy using it in the air.

So far, i enjoyed the few times that I had the opportunity to fly her. From my experience, i do not know whether it landed in a neighbor's yard or on their house. Overall, this feels like after she went down on her return home flight, and I am unable to find it.

A great entry level drone. If there is a downside to this drone it is that there is no gimbal, outside of that it was a great purchase.

Overall, good as a beginner drone. From my experience, it comes with bag and video quality is decent.

From my experience, i am completely blown away by the quality of this drone.The batteries, combined last about an hour and a half. In regular use, they charge quickly with a USB-C cord. After spending some time with it, comes with two batteries. For everyday flying, the power buttons are easy to find and use.The case is high quality with pockets for the drone/controller, a zipper pocket for extra pieces (it comes with extras of everything) and side pockets for storage. The controls are simple enough to understand for someone just starting out; it just takes a minute to get used to how to operate the drone.The drone itself is super high quality. It’s quick and the features are amazing. From my experience, gPS, 4K video (note that the SD card is not included) and a “return home” feature that will bring the drone home if it runs out of battery, exceeds its distance ability, or by the press of a button. In regular use, the drone is light but powerful. After spending some time with it, the range is about 900 feet and it goes really high.The controller is simple and sturdy and charges quickly as well. For everyday flying, the weight is nice without being too heavy. So far, buttons are easy to understand and the screen is clear and concise.The video quality is amazing. Overall, it stabilizes it self very well. From my experience, be cautious about wind though, it doesn’t fight against the wind too well.There are only two things that would knock the review down a star for me, but they’re not enough to actually do so: the app isn’t the greatest. It’s a compact clunky but you get used to it. After spending some time with it, the setup is a bit challenging for those who aren’t super tech savvy, but the manual comes with a QR code to a video that is pretty helpful.Overall, excellent product. My child is obsessed with it. So far, very happy with this drone.

In use, it is very good for the price.

After spending some time with it, i use this for work. Overall, video quality is better than expected. For everyday flying, it has saved me so much time and trips up and down ladders. Simple to operate and dependable.

Great birthday present.

So far, great statter drone. Overall, all functions work perfectly. From my experience, recommend.

Overall, oK 👌.

From my experience, so far so good. Overall, gREAT GREAT GREAT this saved me from a flyaway. In regular use, there were some gps and calibration issue, but a quick look at the booklet solved my problems. In use, it is good to read the manual before first flight. For everyday flying, i did not and I almost lost my new quadcopter. So far, but luckily this drone automatically returns home upon any loss connection.

Drone is straightforward to control in the air, out of the box, very steady and solid. After spending some time with it, i have never flown one drone in my life and this one gave me that experience. For everyday flying, i am having a blast with it.

I needed an easy to get comfortable drone to check the roof of the house for nest, roof inspection, solar panels and gutters. For everyday flying, i have earlier ones but this is much more steady and easy. So far, you’ll still need to practice unless you’re a seasoned pilot or pro. Overall, that’s the fun part. From my experience, it’s part of my household toolbox too.

For everyday flying, love it I would recommend it for anyone specially who is a beginner like I am. I really do enjoy using it in the air. In use, it feels a very good purchase for me.

So far, nitido.

Awesome compact drone for the price. From my experience, wasp 0: Drone 1!

From my experience, quick shipping. Easy setup and so straightforward to control in the air my 5 year old can fly it. After spending some time with it, great starter drone.

In regular use, seems to be built a bit tougher than my prior drone! After spending some time with it, i also like the controller setup, much smoother to operate.

After spending some time with it, the Holy Stone HS175G: My Favorite Beginner Drone!Wow, I am absolutely blown away by the Holy Stone HS175G! Overall, in use, it is truly a 5-star experience!Why did you pick this product vs others?:Honestly it was the follow me function and the amazon prime day dealValue for money:great value. As someone relatively new to drones, I was looking for a balance of easy using it in the air and good camera quality without having to register with the FAA. So far, this drone ticks every single box and then some. Overall, right out of the box, the design is impressive. From my experience, in use, it is incredibly lightweight (under 250g) and folds up neatly, making it super portable – perfect for tossing in a backpack with its included carrying case. In regular use, setup was a breeze; I was up and using it in the air in minutes.The 4K camera with EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) delivers surprisingly good results for this price point. After spending some time with it, my photos are crisp, and the videos are smooth enough for sharing with friends and family. For everyday flying, the 90° adjustable lens is a fantastic feature, letting me capture different perspectives without having to constantly re-position the drone. So far, plus, the 5GHz FPV transmission gives a clear, steady live feed to my phone, which really helps with framing shots. Using it in the air this drone is a joy. The GPS Auto Return is a lifesaver, bringing it back home if the battery gets low or I lose signal – huge peace of mind for someone just starting out. The Optical Flow Positioning keeps it incredibly steady inside the house and when GPS isn't available. After spending some time with it, i also appreciate the brushless motors; they're quieter and seem much more durable than brushed motors I've seen on other drones. For everyday flying, with two batteries included, I get plenty of flight time (around 60 minutes total) to really enjoy my sessions.The intelligent flight modes like Follow Me, Tap Fly, and Circle Fly are so much fun and make getting cinematic shots incredibly easy, even for a novice pilot. The controller feels comfortable in my hands, and the controls are intuitive.Honestly, if you're looking for an affordable, feature-packed, and reliable drone that's straightforward to control in the air and captures great footage, the Holy Stone HS175G is an absolute winner.
