Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: DJI Go4 at 3.0 against X's 1.8. DJI Go4 also leads on ratings volume (6.6K vs 10) and review sentiment (24% vs 0%). X's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
