    Minimal colour balancing done on it. Very close to original.

    Just been looking at some reviews today on YouTube and they all seem to be very positive.

    Think I'm gonna buy myself this as a Christmas present :)

    It looks pretty impressive to be honest. 30 minute battery, 3 axis gimbal and ultra portable. I wonder how it will hold up in wind..

    Is there any indication that these might drop in price after Xmas? They're em...hovering around 450 at the moment, I'm looking to buy one but I'm hoping the price might drop.

    Would I still need to pay customs tax on these if I chose the EU from this site?

    They haven't moved in price in ages. Think the lowest I've ever seen it is 430euro when it released, 450 is decent for it's capabilities. Not sure about customs unfortunately, maybe someone else could advise?

    It's on banggood for $499

    Use code BGFIMIX8CN or BGFIMIX8ESPL and the drone should be discounted.


    You can choose either EU Priority Line shipping or tick the Tariff Insurance box at checkout and you should avoid any fees also. But, if you do get asked, they will refund them.

    Still have my one i got in early 2018 from this thread, only used it once since. I don't like the attention it draws, people kept asking me questions about it when i was flying it and im too much or an introvert lol. Not sure what I was thinking in buying it, although the quality is really good.
    Have they not gone down in price then? Or are the ones on gearbest now newer models? If so what is the difference?

    What are the reviews like for this drone, it looks good from the reviews in that link but does anyone here own it? Would it be better to pick up one of these or try to get the Xiaomi Mi second hand? Thanks :)

    I'm wondering the same. From what I can see it looks like the X8 is the successor to the MI. It looks like it would be easier to transport as well.

    It flies very similarly to the original, but as you say is much more portable. The camera is similar too and does a great job. For some reason it's not as popular as I thought it'd be.

    I bit the bullet and ordered one today, looked at some reviews on youtube and they seem positive. I currently have a HS165 which was my first drone and was looking to upgrade to something with a better camera, this seems to fit the bill nicely at a very good price :)
