Overview

• Amazon Prime Air's MK30 drones can now deliver high-value electronics, including iPhones, AirPods, and Samsung Galaxy devices, following FAA approval for lithium-ion battery transport.
• The service is currently limited to College Station, Texas, and the West Valley area of Phoenix, Arizona, with deliveries restricted to packages weighing five pounds or less.
• Customers in eligible areas can receive items within 60 minutes, with a precise five-minute delivery window provided during checkout.
• The drones use advanced mapping and sensors to navigate obstacles and ensure clear delivery zones, dropping packages from 13 feet without requiring QR codes.
• Amazon plans to expand its drone delivery service to additional U.S. cities and internationally to the UK and Italy, pending regulatory approval.
