DJI Neo is a tiny, beginner friendly selfie and FPV style drone that is especially good for quick indoor flights, learning manual control, and casual shots around people. The built in prop protection makes it feel sturdy, and adding the remote or Fly More bundle unlocks much better range and a more enjoyable flying experience. Battery life is short at about 15 minutes, and phone control is clunky with limited range. It can struggle in wind, low light, and tracking, so it works best as a fun starter drone rather than a polished camera rig.
The remote improves usability by providing better control than phone-only navigation for selfie shots.
The drone can be a fun starter option for learning manual flight in small, confined areas around people.
The Neo can be resilient for tinkering because prop protection helps it keep working after minor crashes.
The DJI Neo can be airborne in about 30 seconds, which makes quick selfie-style filming practical.
The battery life is limited to around 15 minutes, and charging requires docking the battery on the drone.
Warranty support in the US can be unclear or unavailable, and third-party Amazon sellers may void warranty coverage.
The Neo can hit obstacles while following and may lose tracking, which can limit smooth automated shots.
Controller-free operation can be risky because the drone may wander beyond phone Bluetooth range and be hard to retrieve.

Range is heavily limited when using a smartphone to navigate, only 50 meters. You need a dedicated DJI controller to go out further. Realistically with the small battery onboard, you'll be limited to around 2km range before needing to return, or risk losing it.
I personally think the Potensic Atom SE deals are more attractive in this $140-$150 range however.
You need to go up to the $200-$350 range to start seeing drones with decent battery sizes that can get you higher and farther, with better cameras. I really like the Potensic Atom 2 refurb deals we've been seeing pop up lately on eBay. I picked one up a week ago and I'm having a blast with it. You can't find a more feature-packed drone with a 3-battery kit for $205 unless you're combing Facebook Marketplace. Skyrover makes some great drones too in the $300 range as well, with very nice 60fps 4k cameras that previously were only available on high-end $500+ dones.
It's really too bad the FCC isn't accepting new foreign-made drones for import, like the new Atom 3. I feel like it's going to just feed a black market because no one makes competitively-priced drones in the US.
