Potensic T25 Review: 1080p Camera Drone Under $200

For those wanting a decent mid-range priced camera drone, the Potensic T25 may be the one for you. T25 has a great build for those trying to test the waters in their photography career.

The Potensic T25 offers great features for the aspiring photographer. With the tools onboard, you can definitely get the feel of aerial photography. It has a 1080p camera – a massive bonus from other drones in its price range that only offers 720p quality cameras. This is a great selling point as is, since you can get amazing shots and recordings immediately.

Potensic T25 Review

It also has many user-friendly features such as takeoff/landing assist and Return Home features. It also has a Follow Me mode that frees up the user’s hands, and a longer control range at 300 meters. This means newer users need not worry about micromanaging every single second of the Potensic T25’s flight. The Follow Me mode for example is a great way to capture footage without having to worry constantly about where your drone is. When your drone gets low on battery, it automatically goes ‘home’, or heads to your direction so you will not have a hard time tracking it down.

The controller seems beginner-friendly enough. It looks a lot like a video game controller, so any person with previous experience playing with the Playstation can feel right at home. For those afraid of all the features, worry not. The controller also has labeled buttons, which gives users an easier time mastering the controls.

For the price range of $169.99 to $189.99 (on sales), this 1080p camera drone may be worth looking into. While it does not have the ‘brand’ of the bigger and more popular names in drone technology, the Potensic T25 still offers quality while being affordable to those wanting to try out drones as a hobby.
