DJI Mini is yet another example of DJI's mastery of the drone market. This is the loveliest, most desirable little camera-equipped drone ever to snap from the air. Smooth, fast, eminently controllable and stupefyingly small, DJI Mavic Mini shoots exceptio...
Easy to start flying, Stable, reliable manners, Extremely light and compact, Impressive battery life, No FAA registration required
No obstacle avoidance, No 4K video, Lackluster video transmission system
Only if this is your first drone. Otherwise, stick to DJI's more expensive and feature-rich options.Editors' RecommendationsDJi's Mavic Air 2 packs 4K 60FPS video and obstacle avoidance for $800 Best cheap drone deals for April 2020: DJI, Potensic, and mo...
Absolutely dinky, No CAA registration needed, Fantastic stabilisation, Great battery life
No 4K capture, No object tracking, Limited image control
The Mavic Mini definitely won't be for everyone. If you want maximum control over your footage, have no qualms about registering your drone, need 4K capture at 60fps, are OK with spending the best part of a grand and consider object tracking a must-have...
For some people, the Mavic Mini will be the perfect drone. It doesn't need to be registered and is DJI's most affordable model yet. It shoots decent photos and videos for the price, too.For others, there will be too many compromises to make it a good buy...
Most affordable DJI drone, Great 3-axis stabilisation, No need to register with authorities,
No 180-degree camera tilt, No object tracking, No 4K capture,
For what it is - a 249g drone that captures 2.7k video and fits in the palm of your hand, nothing comes close to the Mavic Mini. Its footage is stable, battery life exceptional and the drone is portable too. We would have loved 4K capture, object tracking...
Much more affordable than any previous DJI drone,Easy to fly,Smooth footage,QuickShot modes are fun to use,Battery life is decent for the size
GPS/Location didn't work for remembering take-off point,It won't like strong winds,QuickShot options limited compared to bigger models,Slow charging batteries
On first looks, the Mavic Mini seems like a lot of fun. Not only does it correct the issues we had with the DJI Spark - namely the stabilisation, lack of folding arms and steep price point - but it's more fun too.The basic drone kit costs £369, which is s...
Incredibly compact, Easy to fly, Long 30-minute flight time
No lateral object avoidance sensors, Lacks follow-me and hyperlapse modes
It certainly has its weaknesses, then, but for such a small, lightweight drone, the Mavic Mini delivers big time. It shoots detailed colour-rich video – although I'd love the option to shoot at higher bit rates – it's responsive and predictable in flight...
Smart, collapsible design, Incredibly stable video capture, Impressive battery life
No 4K or 60fps 2.7K video, No object tracking, Micro USB charging (not USB-C)
The DJI Mavic Mini is a featherweight foldable drone – just 249g – and yet it still manages to offer the incredibly stabilized video and reassuring build quality that DJI is known for. There are fairly tolerable compromises: it doesn't have object trackin...
Abstract: Drones: They're amazing, they're fun and they're hella expensive. Here's a tip though: You can get cheaper drones if your budget is stretched. The only problem though is going that route is rife with compromise. Sometimes the camera has fewer pixels per s...
