The two items are not really comparable. The Parrot is a cute toy for playing with. And the Phantom is an entry level Photo FPV quite capable of using to pro standard.
It’s like asking what the worlds best vehicle is. One will say Rolls Royce. One will say Lambo. So on that advice I will buy one or both. Only to find that I have to make loads of trips to shift my 20 tons of coal 400 miles….
Much better results with the Phantom. But with upgrades you can pay nearly 10 times as much.
Couldn’t find the “EDIT” Button.
I have the Phantom and it took me about an hour to get the first flight. That included charging the batteries. Instructions are not the best, but in my opinion adequate. Fabulous results though and very easy to fly.

And these are out of the box PLUS GoPro 3 Black. But WITHOUT the gimbal etc. could really do with the gimbal, but that is almost the same price as the Phantom. Getting one though.
