Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First and last DJI product I ever purchase. Let's start: 1. Updates typically break something on the camera or app. This in turn requires time to "find a solution", patch, and repeat. 2. They have downgraded the device via firmware patch. The have made the rocksteady image a lower quality that does not stabilize as much. The only reason I bought this was better stabilization than the Go Pro Hero 7. Now it is worse. 3. The device requires activated. Yes. Before you can use the device you have to go through a lengthy process to activate it which requires setting up a DJI account. 4. Requires too many permissions. To connect the camera to your phone you have to give the app access to location, bluetooth, and wifi. This in turn renders your phone unable to connect to the internet since the camera uses it. You do not have an option. If you wanna use bluetooth OR wifi you're out of luck since it requires both. So just a short scenario for the above point: you took a nice video you want to share on the social media of your choice. Turn on wifi. Turn on bluetooth. Turn on location. HOPE that the app finds your camera as it is notoriously unreliable, then HOPE that after the app finds it it can actually connect. From there you have to use the obtuse DJI app that never let's you know of transfer has started to your phone because of how buggy it is. Now after all that you then get to go back through, turn off wifi, turn off bluetooth, and turn off location. I wish I was making this up but sadly I'm not. The Osmo Action and the Mimo app that is required is a prime example of one of two things: 1. Someone with an idea of a product but zero idea on how to do it. 2. Someone wants to gain access to as much as your device as possible to mine all the information they can. And let's face it, DJI has been around long enough to know the game so let's guess which scenario is more likely.
