To send your smartphone to aerial journey all you need to do is to slot your smartphone into the PhoneDrone Ethos. The smartphone shell is also a high tech smartphone case to keep your phone safe during the flights.

To help it fly, the drone is attached with 4 powerful propellers that can help it reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour. The battery can be charged via a USB and gives a flight time of around 15-20 minutes per charge. Features:
