What keeps coming up against it

Owners who have crashed a Mini 4K in RTH situations consistently point to the same cause: the drone has no proximity sensors and will fly into an obstacle head-on rather than stop or reroute. This is confirmed by multiple accounts of crashes into rocks and structures after signal loss triggered a return-to-home.

More detail
What owners praise, where they are split, and the follow-up timeline

What owners praise

Nothing with a clear majority yet. Owners who raised these subjects were split, or too few to judge.

Nothing has a clear majority against it yet. Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.

7 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
