DJI Mavic Air Vs DJI Phantom 4 - Cause I Wouldn't Get A DJI Mavic Pro Right Now

Get Them Here:

The DJI Mavic Air is an amazing drone, and the DJI Mavic Air is even more amazing when you realize its better than the DJI Phantom 4. A few year ago the DJI Phantom 4 was bleeding edge technology, but some how DJI managed to cram even more technology into the DJI Mavic Air. Personally I wouldn't get a DJI Mavic Pro right now because I Feel the second generation DJI Mavic Pro will be released in the next 6 to 8 months. So if you're looking into a drone right now I would look into either the DJI Mavic Air or DJI Phantom 4.

Why would I buy a Mavic Pro 2 if I can have a 4k flying camera that fits in my pocket for half price :D

Now this is the video comparison I've been wanting to see. I just got my Mavic Air in, and my buddy has the original Phantom 4 like this one. He claims my camera is not as good as his. He bought his P4 for $1400 back then. I'm super happy with my purchase as the Air is an incredible tool for it's near micro size! Awesome comparison

"If you're getting landscape shots consider the Phantom 4..." Isn't EVERYONE getting landscape shots?

Thanks, really helpful seeing i just sold my phantom 4 for the air. Confirms that it was a good purchase !

This was the most helpful and concise review I have heard, and I have listened to many. Good job, thanks for your effort!

Are you absolutely blind to quality or did you just mix them up in the b roll? The P4 has much better image quality it’s not even a close competition. Phantom4 is flatter colors because it captures more raw data for you to color grade. Or you can directly change the color profile in the app before you capture. The air is likely pre saturated because DJI knows most air users aren’t color grading.

It’s like comparing a great point and shoot camera in manual mode to a decent cell phone camera.

Thanks for a great video... I have watched alot ot videos trying to decide on what DJI drone to get for my specific purpose. This video helped alot. Keep up the great work.

I still have the phantom 4, not gonna upgrade since its a bigger drone, it's more robust, longer time in the air, faster motors 30FPS is enough for production only 2 sensors, I'm flying in the air, not in the woods. what do u guys think​?

[PhilTheThrill]

I really appreciate this video and you helped me pick the right drone for me. The DJI Mavic Air is clearly the one for me!

[ontherun]

Exactly the review I was looking for - and super helpful too. Thanks!

I had a guy tell me you can't shoot professionally on a Mavic Air. I've done footage every bit as good as a P4P with my Mavic Air. Plus, when shooting in dense woods (or real estate surrounded by trees), that Phantom isn't going to fit in there.

[CineDecodificado]

For the same price which would you pick?

[lakeside]

can you tell me where you bought your phantom 4 from

[Jpilgrim]

Magic air is a nice drone for the price but the longer flight time, MUCH greater signal range, and very close camera capabilities really lean in favor of the pro. 7km vs closer to 2km of the air in real world scenarios is a big deal to a lot of people. I'm used to a TBS discovery with an LRS system and 2.4 analog video so I don't think the air will come close to satisfying my long term flight needs.

the mavic air looks like a more finished picture. i want a flat profile and low contrast when i edit. does mavic air have dlog or dcinelike? i would keep the p4 or p4pro and have mavic air for fast and fun social media sharing

[RichThul]

I have a Phantom 4 and the controller will not charge along with 2 of the 3 batteries I have for it. Would you suggest getting a new controller for the Phantom 4 or get the Mavic Air. Right now my Phantom 4 is useless without a controller so any recommendations would be helpful. Thanks in advance and thanks for making the video it was a useful comparison.

[procinemax]

Where is the place this shots were taken? The name of the city...

[TAPPChannel]

dont you have that gimbal issues after newest updates?? Or you dont do that updates on P4??

[sacharriolamarino]

I f...ing loved this review, seriously, very good stuff... so useful and entertaining.
