Time for the big question. If you are in the market for a compact drone, is the DJI Spark one you should consider buying If the app worked as it should, my answer would be a resounding yes. However, with all its issues, my answer is a more hesitant maybe, and even that maybe comes with asterisks.
Portable size If you've spent any time with the Mavic; or Phantom; you'll be shocked by just how minuscule the Spark is; Impact sensors Front and underside impact sensors work pretty well at keeping the Spark from crashing into the ground or large; stationary objects; Durability and build quality...
Android Application The app's functionality and polish is excellent, its stability (on Android at least) is not; Frequent app crashes while tethered to a $500 drone is not acceptable, Battery life The manual says a battery will last 15 minutes, but it's more like 10-12.
