Amazon drones can now deliver smartphones, AirTags and more


Amazon can now deliver a bunch of new item types via drone. The company has received FAA approval for some smartphones, earbuds, video doorbells and more.

Newly-available items include Apple iPhones, AirTags and AirPods, in addition to Samsung Galaxy smartphones, Ring doorbells and Alpha Grillers Instant Read Food Thermometers. These deliveries will typically arrive within an hour, assuming the package is under five pounds and the customer lives in a drone service area. The drones can get into serious trouble when trying to navigate foul weather, as shown by recent crashes that forced the company to put the platform on hold for a while.
