I like that it has 2 photo format options - jpeg for easier image processing and quicker posting, and raw for higher quality image files and more freedom to edit pictures. In short, Mini 2 is good for beginners and pros alike.

The Mini slowing down when pointing the gimbal 90 degrees down in video mode is a feature as stated in the manual to improve stable shooting but if windy the feature is disabled to improve wind stability. (page 11 of the manual)

I just ordered this drone for $325, fly more kit, never flown a drone in my life. I'm educating myself as much as I can before it arrives. I just hope I don't crash or lose it in the first 15 minutes of flying it :)

Bought the Mini 2 as my next step up from the Ryze Tello drone and as a beginner drone pilot.. Mind = Blown! The Mini 2 is a beautiful piece of kit and is an absolute dream to fly for a beginner. Thanks for your video! 👍

The gimbal pointed straight down might activate a safety feature that makes sure you see what’s in front of you by slowing your drone down

To our new flying comrades, educated yourselves on the drone regulations and have fun. Russ, as always, nice vid. Thank you

This thing is absolutely incredible. I bought the mini for $380 a few months back with the remote and extra battery, props and charging base. If I didn't own a P4P I'd be upgrading to this bad boy.

I was just thinking about how I could play around with the zoom function on my Mini 2, thanks to this video I’ve got Dyna zoom to try out! Nice one Russ!

[BrandoDrum]

I just bought one. I'm not a pro, just use them on vacations. I've had my phantom 3 advanced for 5 years, it still works great. But I'm upgrading because for me this thing is beyond perfect. Heres to another 5 years.

Faruk Mode was spot on. Hilarious!! I watched that clip five or six times. LOL

[Geeksvana]

The Peter McKinnon style had me howling!!! Brilliant review Russ!

[RyanOpelac]

I’m sure there’s some people who are mad because they just bought the Mavic Mini 1 on Prime Day. At least those people got a good deal even though there’s a new release now.

I work professionally, I have a mavic 2 pro, but I just ordered a mini 2 to keep in my every day bag for random fun shots, and to use in special situations where I'm worried I might crash my mavic 2 (never crashed a drone so far fingers crossed). It's nice to have a backup and something smaller than can pull of riskier shots and fit into tighter spaces.

I have seen MANY Mini 2 Reviews, in fact I think all of them, and this is the best review which addressed all the items I am interested in - Video Quality comparison, Wind Resistance footage and comparison and range. I was also interested to learn about the three flaws you found, which we hope will be addressed through an App upgrade. look forward to your review of the updated Fly App.

Sold my Mini a few months ago because I felt like I was getting bored of it, but I've had the itch again and pulled the trigger on the Mini 2 because of this video. Can't wait to try it out!

[norbertcase]

Russ and his funny introductions! Hahaha! This is such a great comparison video! I know the Mavic Mini’s not so bad, but the Mini 2’s just so much better!

[timothysingleton]

Whoever's gonna say that the DJI Mini 2 does not have enough upgrades is either blind or a troll.

[nealdillard]

Being able to shoot raw is a blessing for photo editors. Thank you DJI for this. Add ActiveTrack in the Mini 3 and your job is complete!

[philbohr]

Noob here, got mini 2 as first drone 2 weeks ago. I’m impressed!

[MelvinSanchez]

I was waiting so long for this review, the mini 2 deserved an intro like this 🤙🏼🙏🏼
