Gadget freaks new toy is way too cool to be true!

 Are there any gadget freaks out there? Already have that latest smartphone, new sleek Macbook Air, the best speaker to pair it with and headphones to die for? Well, let me tell you guys how to spend that extra money on the coolest toy ever! 

 I got to know about this toy called AR Drone 2.0 from Parrot company, based in USA from a friend who received this gorgeous masterpiece for his birthday last year. I am not that into gadgets and technological stuffs because I only use the basic ones such as hand phone and laptop. But this toy really will makes you feel like buying just because of its over the top features.

 AR Drone 2.0 basically is like any remote controlled helicopter toy that you know of, but with high technological design and advance featured in it. From Parrot official website, the toy can fly as high 50 meters and can capture HD videos and photos with its inbuilt 720p HD camera! It has a big memory that can keep hours of video recorded and pictures. With its robust design, this toy can handle any flip or hover during each flight. 

 The most interesting past is that this toy does not have any specific remote controller but uses that owner's smartphone to control its movement! Both gadget needs to be synchronized first before can be used together. Not just that, you can keep track with your toy using GPS. This means that if you are that good, you can control its movement by monitoring the GPS whenever it is too far from you. Still think this is just an ordinary toy? Play this Youtube video to be blown away!



                   

 The first model for this toy came out in 2012 and there were few critics about the battery life span because it only last for 10 minutes. That company took all the critics as a challenge to come out with the latest version of this toy. According to techradar.com, Parrot's representative said that the new improved quadrotor helicopter will come out soon with battery life span double than before!

 My experience playing with this toy was amazing..........until we crashed the helicopter on a building! That toy didn't survive the crash and need to be repaired. Until now, we still haven't got the chance to play with it again because my friend is just too lazy to send it back to the shop. Oh well, let this be a reminder to everyone, DO NOT PLAY LIKE A PROFESSIONAL IF ITS YOUR FIRST TIME BECAUSE YOU MIGHT CRASH YOURS TOO!


If i were a gadget freak, this toy is definitely going to be in my birthday wish list! <3
