WTECH FALCON FX holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SYMA AIR has 44 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of SYMA AIR's written reviews are positive against 0% of WTECH FALCON FX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SYMA AIR ships an update every 6 weeks, WTECH FALCON FX every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
