+1 for the Smart controller.
It's much brighter than the brightest iPad, which makes a huge difference IMO. It's also much more compact, has HDMI out, micro SD slot, much better temperature resistance, etc.
Anyone worried about the Android OS based on unrelated experiences shouldn't be - it was specifically chosen for it's flexibility and stability, and it is a custom version designed to run the Go4 app and not much else. It's very fast/responsive and I have not seen so much as a stutter in all my time using it. You can easily see the screen in full sunlight as well. Anecdotally speaking, the only issues I have ever had flying DJI drones have been with iOS devices - that doesn't mean much, but it's an equal data point. Also consider that the VW/Audi group chose Android to underpin the infotainment in all of their new cars, where reliability, customization and speed are the top priorities - helps put things in perspective
