Score: 79/100Rankings
The Holy Stone HS360D offers a 6 km transmission range and up to 40 minutes of flight per battery, combined with a 4K camera and GPS-based smart modes in a lightweight foldable package. However, its video is limited to 20 fps and it lacks obstacle avoidance sensors. Best suited for hobbyists needing long endurance and range without professional video demands.
The Potensic ATOM SE is a sub-250 g foldable drone that provides 4K video, a wide 118° field of view and up to 31 minutes of flight with a 4 km signal range. It is limited by a single-axis gimbal and occasional app stability issues. Best suited for travelers and beginners needing a lightweight, affordable camera drone.

Professional reviewers and editors commend the ATOM SE for packing a 4K camera, long 31-minute flight time, and robust 4 km signal into a sub-250 g frame, calling it a best-value option that rivals pricier models. However, they note the single-axis gimbal and occasional app stability issues as notable drawbacks compared to 3-axis competitors.
Everyday users consistently praise the drone's portability, high-quality 4K video, and reliable GPS features, especially for travel and social media. Recurring complaints focus on app glitches, slightly shorter real-world flight times, and the limited stabilization of the single-axis gimbal.
Professional reviewers and editors consider the HS360D the top budget drone of 2025, emphasizing its impressive 6 km range, 4K EIS camera, brushless motors, and beginner-friendly GPS stability while noting the low 20 fps video frame rate and missing gimbal as limitations for serious videography.
Everyday users love the long flight time, easy setup, strong range, and sharp 4K photos, but repeatedly complain about shaky video, wind-related drift, and the absence of obstacle avoidance, making it a solid choice for casual flying but not for demanding FPV or professional shoots.
“pretty darn stable”
