There is quite a bit of controversy regarding whether or not Blade 720 Drone is a scam or legit.

Official Site: Blade720.Pro

Created less than a few weeks ago, Blade 720 Drone has endured a sincere sum of scrutiny from the online drone community about being a ‘scam.’

To learn more regarding the Blade 720 Drone “Scam” along with the shady entity who is backing this misleading Blade 720 Drone campaign we invite you to read our unbiased review.

What is Blade 720 Drone?

Blade 720 Drone is marketed as a highly discounted performance foldable drone.

Allegedly retailing for $199.98, the Blade 720 Drone is reflecting a 50% discount per unit and can be purchased for $99.99.

Features

  • Foldable
  • 10 minute battery life
  • Speed of up to 12 meters per second
  • Top transmission range of 2km
  • Altitude Hold Mode
  • Anti-Collision System (allegedly prevents drone from ground or in-flight collisions)
  • 3D VD Mode (joystick to better control your drone)
  • High-quality video (this is been a complaint amongst consumers)
  • Panorama Mode
  • USB Charging Port

While most cameras are 4K compatible this day and age, according to consumer feedback the Blade 720 Drone camera is more along the lines of 720p.

Additional consumer reviews also state that the Blade 720 Drone reflects a flight-time of only 8 minutes, possesses a range less than 75 feet while the speed is HIGHLY exaggerated.

We tried to verify the authenticity of MDE Commerce Ltd through a Malta Business Registry but unfortunately the page lead us to a 404 Error Page.

According to OpenCorporates, MDE Commerce Ltd. was incorporated on June 4th, 2018 and is filed under Company Number C86613.

MDE Commerce Ltd is the same ‘corporate entity’ behind the MadDeals, MegaDeals and EcoCharge Hoaxes – all of which reflected highly discounted consumers goods like a Maxclean robot cleaner and an eco-chargeable battery pack.

Shipping & Returns

It it obvious that the return policy regarding Blade 720 Drone was taken from a different site and implemented into the framework on their policy.

“Perishable goods such as food, flowers, newspapers or magazines cannot be returned.”

Since the only item for retail is a Blade 720 Drone, it obviously doesn’t fit.
This is the same return policy found at EcoCharge.Pro, a known retail hoax pretending to offer eco-chargeable battery packs.

Evidently a much bigger network is overseeing a wide number of select discount retail opportunities such as the EcoCharge, MaxClean Robot Cleaner and the Blade 720 Drone.

Blade 720 Drone Reviews

Shared below are some reviews we found regarding Blade 720 Drone at the UKClimbing Forum:

“I’d definitely say scam.  Photos seem to be very slightly photoshopped images of a DJI Mavic, the returns page talks about them not accepting health and personal care items back.”

“Somewhat bizarrely, the Terms of Use has a range of irrelevancies which rather suggest a cut-and-paste from an unrelated site. Personally, I would’t touch it with a bargepole. “

“my uncle bought one of these for my brother for his birthday. He likes nature photography and video and we thought this would be an inexpensive way to dip his toe into drones.  Now, I can’t officially call it a scam, because a piece of electronic equipment did show up at his house.  Remember another adage: You get what you pay for.  Cheap is the right word for this thing.  Our first indication should have been the 720p camera.  I mean 4K is pretty much standard now. This camera isn’t even good at 720p. The image stability is awful, the focus is soft, and as far as we can tell, it’s a fixed lens. On top of that, their other claims are bogus too. The range is less than 75 feet. The speed is nothing like 50Kph and we flew for about 8 minutes in absolutely calm conditions.  Because it only has a USB charger it takes a long time to prepare for another 8 Minute flight, so if you did decide to buy this cheap toy, I would buy extra batteries. It’s light enough that when it fell to the grass it didn’t break, but I wouldn’t want it to fall onto concrete.  I would tell your kids to do their research, and be ready to pay a little extra.  I will say that all three of us agreed that we would have had a great time if not so frustrated with the drone.  We’re looking into getting a better one. My brother lives in New Brunswick on the St. Lawrence, and there are lots of great opportunities to get some good shots.”

We are unable to find any other feedback pertaining to the Blade 720 Drone.

Domain Insight

Blade720Drone.com was privately registered on July 12th, 2019 through the NameCheap, Inc registrar.

During the time of writing this review (July 31st, 2019), Blade720Drone.com failed to reflect any web rankings with SimilarWeb, a market intelligence website.

We suspect that Blade 720 Drone is making rounds through social media outlets, or that is atleast how the operators affiliated with the unverified MDE Commerce Ltd. corporation in the past have lured consumers into their site.

Is Blade720Drone.com a Scam?

Blade 720 Drone appears to be operated by an entity who is responsible for retail hoaxes in the past that have yet to deliver on the promises of their merchandise.

With that being said we do not believe Blade 720 Drone is a scam BUT it is certainly a deceptive retail offer that should be avoided.

Blade 720 Drone Review Conclusion

If you were looking to purchase a drone through Blade720Drone.com just remember the adage that you get what you pay for.

Affiliated with MDE Commerce LTD, who is responsible for a handful of retail hoaxes that we know of, the items that you see featured for sale aren’t likely worth your time or money.

While consumers report receiving theirs products, they tend to fall drastically short of the claims presented amongst many affiliate websites along with their own sites.

With these facts in mind we do not recommend the Blade 720 Drone for those looking for a worthwhile drone.

Verdict: Blade 720 Drone Should Be Purchased at OWN Risk!

    Bought 3. They work; but aren’t anything special. But definitely misleading advertising for sure. Should of done more research as I could bought the “Eachine E58” for about 65 CAD (about half the price from the blade website)

  2. Robin

    Why do they use so much footage of a DJI Mavic Pro if the “Blade 720” is so much better – and ALL the footage in the AD of the controller is a Mavic controller! It’s a SCAM!!

  3. Paul Comber

    Well well….. Glad I searched for the product name (drone*720) and found you guys. Things that make you go hmmmm! After reading others comments I can see tricksy hobbit way of it (The advert.) Got me intrigued so I read their blog and watched the accompanying video and to be straight up it got me thinking about owning one. So after leaving a rather large comment in their ‘contact us’ field I clicked on the affiliation link and guess what? The same distribution mob I have just been reading about in comments here above. Wow! Thankyou so very much. Your site just saved me money I don’t have plus a lot of stress I wouldn’t have needed. I’ve bookmarked this site and I’ll make sure I check in before I make future purchases via the internet. Good work people. Cheers.

    I again ordered the blade 720 got it within two weeks it looked alright flew not bad flying not in windy situations it has no sd card reader also would not link to my phone via the Jy UFO app so a lot of misrepresentation it is Eachine e58 they’re just taking advantage of people who can’t afford atop notch drone with a cheap knockoff so buyer beware I am in the process of trying to get the card reader and if all else fails my money back

    I have learnt how people selling products online just lie to your face and always check for online reviews and on Amazon before clicking to buy. And oh glad I’m did on this one. Like many I thought it’d be great to support someone who thinks like what was portrayed. And I’d never owned a drone so thought I’d buy one. Thanks to this site and other non biased reviews I saved my self $99. Thanks guys!

    You tube should be accountable for their advertisements so should Facebook Google and any other platform. They make billions in profits and should be responsible for any of their users losses.

  7. Charles Kim

    thank you all for your reviews. I was suckered in by the youtube video and wanted to support these guys… what a bunch of A-holes… I’ve cancelled my 2 drone order and waiting holding my breath for a refund.
