Vivitar Skyflow GPS Foldable 4K Drone vs Holy Stone HS720G Drone

The Holy Stone HS720G is the better drone for most buyers. It flies longer (26 minutes vs 18), reaches farther (about 1,000 m vs 320 yards), and has a higher owner rating (4.1 vs 3.7). The Vivitar Skyflow's edge is its 3-axis gimbal and 5-inch touchscreen controller, which give steadier footage and no phone needed. The HS720G uses 2-axis gimbal stabilization plus electronic stabilization, so expect smoother results from the Skyflow in wind, but weaker range and flight time.

  • Choose the Vivitar Skyflow if you want a built-in touchscreen controller and a true 3-axis gimbal for steadier video, and you fly close.
  • Choose the Holy Stone HS720G if you want longer flights, much longer range, and a better-rated drone for beginners.

Questions and answers

Which is better for beginners?
The Holy Stone HS720G. It has GPS auto return, a longer flight time, and a higher owner rating, and its standard controller pairs with a phone app that walks new pilots through setup.
Which has steadier video?
The Vivitar Skyflow. Its 3-axis mechanical gimbal corrects pitch, roll, and yaw, while the HS720G's 2-axis gimbal leaves yaw correction to electronic stabilization.
Which flies longer and farther?
The HS720G. It flies up to 26 minutes and controls out to about 1,000 m, against 18 minutes and about 320 yards for the Skyflow.
Do I need a smartphone?
Only with the HS720G, which uses your phone for the live feed. The Skyflow's 5-inch touchscreen controller shows the feed without a phone.
Is the Skyflow worth stepping up to?
Only if the touchscreen controller and 3-axis gimbal matter more to you than range and flight time. Otherwise the HS720G is the stronger all-round drone.
Which takes better photos?
The HS720G. It captures 4K stills, while the Skyflow records 4K video but takes 3MP photos.
