DJI Mavic Air 2
DJI Mavic say their Air 2 drone takes "power and portability to the next level". Here's how they have achieved that big step up.
More advanced features in a compact form
The Air 2 promises smart shooting functions and excellent image quality for incredible aerial photography. Key to this is the improved flight performance which lays a stable and safe base for better results. One of the features that makes this possible is APAS 3.0 Obstacle Avoidance.
Wizardry in the air
Some of the in-flight photographic tricks the Air 2 performs includes 4K/60fps Video, HDR, 8K Hyperlapse, and 48MP still capabilities. All of these numbers add up to superb results.
SmartPhoto for a better photo
One of the standout features of the Mavic Air 2 is SmartPhoto. This combines scene recognition, HyperLight and HDR into one mode for incredible shots.
Take in a wider view
The view from up there is optimised further with DJI’s most advanced panorama mode which promises a higher dynamic range, and vivid and accurate colours.
Stay on track
The new and improved Air 2 features a wide range of intelligent tracking modes (including Active Track 3.0) within the FocusTrack feature which delivers professional results.
Prolong your flight time
To be able to capture all this amazing video and still shots, you need to be in the air for a good period of time. The Air 2 has a battery life of up to 34 minutes, with 10-kilometre 1080p/30fps video transmission.

DJI Mavic Air 2 - BRAND NEW review
I bought the drone about a month ago and its been great. Just for background I have also owned a Mavic Pro and Phantom 3.

DJI Mavic Air 2 review
The best drone for most people, the Mavic Air 2 is a significant upgrade on its predecessor and our new favorite flying camera. It offers improved range, a noticeably longer battery life, excellent 4K/60p video and a whole host of new shooting features, all for the same launch price as its predecessor. Minor niggles aside, it's a superb choice for both stills photographers and filmmakers.- Very easy to fly
- Compact, folding design
- Greatly improved battery life
- Excellent stills and video quality
- Camera feed sometimes stutters
- No screen on the controller

Since learning my mistake the drone ultimately is very high quality. Excellent control and stability, and the images are fantastic.

Not as powerful or fast as the air 2s, but lighter and so legal in more places. Otherwise they're exactly the same feature wise. If you're flying in windier conditions, you may need the extra weight and power, but otherwise this is the drone for you.
DJI Mavic Air 2 - BRAND NEW review
As you can see from this review, my experience with the Mavic Air has been very positive. Just a week with the Mavic Air was enough to decide that I no longer need the Phantom 3 Pro (which I will be selling in the near future) and convince me to move down to something that is far more portable,...
