DJI Mavic Air 2 Review

Superlative battery life ; Strong image and video quality ; Obstacle detection and avoidance ; Automated shots ; HDR video and Raw imaging ; AirSense transponder

Video profiles limited to standard and flat ; App-based editing limited to 1080p output ; Remote omits EV control wheel ; Not easy to get Raw images to your tablet or smartphone

With a compelling mix of imaging, stability, and safety features, DJI's Mavic Air 2 is the best drone you can buy for under $1,000.

Review: DJI Mavic Air 2 | Take Off For Drone Video In 4K DJI Mavic Air 2

DJI Mavic Air 2 is a flying camera that gives you a whole new perspective.

Robust flight characteristics and very easy to fly. Very good video quality in 4K, sharp still images in good light, and several useful flight modes.

Image noise when shooting in low light. No zoom and it does not withstand rain.

DJI Mavic Air 2 costs more than Mini 2, but can do more and has a better camera. It is the drone you should choose if the image quality is important, but also if you need the range and flight characteristics of Air 2. It is very easy to fly, and...

DJI Mavic Air 2 review

An improved camera and flight time make the DJI Mavic Air 2 the best camera drone under $1,000.

I still think the DJI Mavic Mini is the best drone for most people, as its small size and low price make it more accessible for the masses, but the DJI Mavic Air 2 is the best drone for those who don't want to spend more than $1,000, but want to...

DJI Mavic Air 2 review

With 48 megapixel stills and 4K video at 60P – the aggressively-priced DJI Mavic Air 2 drone looks like it will fly off the shelves

Stunning 60fps 4K video ; 1/2 inch sensor ; Nimble in the air ; AI Tracking

No side or top sensors ; Internal storage could be bigger ; App feels a little limited

The DJI Mavic Air 2 is a massive improvement on its predecessor (and for action fans the best Mavic full stop). It has a better camera, great range and far better flight times. The software has some niggles, but the AI is impressive, and the drone...

DJI Mavic Air 2 review

The DJI Mavic Air 2 is the best drone for beginners and hobbyists, thanks to a series of major upgrades.

DJI Mavic Air 2 initial review: All the power, none of the bulk

DJI's latest drone, the Mavic Air 2 is one of the most advanced flying machines it's launched to date, and it's still very compact

On first impressions the DJI Mavic Air 2 doesn't just seem like a highly capable compact drone, it's also one of the most advanced drones DJI has made for consumers. It's got some serious power, all in a package that folds up to fit in virtually any...

DJI Mavic Air 2 review

Air 2 the throne

Tiny but crammed with features ; QuickShot modes work brilliantly

Legislation requires you to register any drone over 250g with the CAA

A great drone for beginners and serious snappers alike, it’s arguably the most accomplished drone in the current DJI range

The Mavic Air 2 has some serious upgrades over the original Mavic Air including the ability to shoot 4K60 video. It's smart, easy to fly and well priced.
