Xiaomi after the success of the FIMI X8 SE 2020, now comes with the new drone to compete with the DJI MINI 2 drone. FIMI new drone is launch under 250gram, the reason for this is the drones in various countries do not need to register under FAA. But with less weight, the drone is impossible to fly in the harsh climate. Xiaomi Today have reviewed the drone for about one month and provided the review of the quadcopter.

Features of Xiaomi FIMI X8 MINI:

Design:

The design of the drone is pretty much similar to the DJI MINI 2 drone. But when it comes to the controller, the FIMI controller is a small and cool controller which extends to place your smartphone. The small quadcopter is 145 X 85 X 56mm in size. The plastic finish of the drone gives it the premium look. Coming to the propellers the X8 MINI propellers are very much similar to the DJI MINI 2’s. So we will have to take care of these so they do not get bend while handling.
