I like that there are no side-to-side obstacle avoidance sensors. As a real estate photographer, sometimes I have to take off and land from cramped locations (out of public view - sometimes neighbors get upset when they see a drone flying around). When landing, I can crab sideways into my landing area without setting off the sensors and land without having to completely disable obstacle avoidance. And yes! In 2023 this is STILL a great value and the best choice for professional photography and video in my space.
@@scottyaaa They say that the Air 2S can fly 18.5 km on a single battery, and as far as 12 km from the controller. Personally, I cannot attest to this because I never fly very far. The drone is always within eyesight.
I just got this drone. I need to go fly it. LOL. Seems like a killer drone!! Hopefully I don't lose it like I did my mavic pro. May it RIP. Losing power at about 300 feet in the middle of a forest is no good.
I had this drone for like a month before I used it. I was scared it'd crash lol. I'm new to all this. Worked out pretty well. The obstacle avoidance system definitely saved it from crashing into trees. Good luck!
Thank you for this 'no-nonsense' detailed features review. I just skipped through 4 other channels' 'reviews' that drove me away with their attempts to create annoying Netflix dramas.
I just bought the DJI mavic air to about 4 months ago. It was my first drone. I mostly got it for photography and found my pictures to not be what I bargained for. As soon as I unboxed 2S yesterday and put up in the sky I could see a difference immediately!! I have to say the differences between these drones on paper looks good but when you actually do a side-by-side comparison of the images afterwards it is just substantial how much better this one is especially if you're taking stills. That wanted sensor is perfect for doing photography! And not only that I did some video of my wife t-shirt business As We Lay them out on the ground and we did an advertisement in the clarity is just superb. The only problem is that I'm having is with both drones not going past about 3,000 feet. I live in the United States and I've tried every single setting period from automatic to 2.4 gigahertz to 5.8 gigahertz manual
All DJI drones are programed with max flight height of 500m from take off, including the FPV, regardless the drones are capable of flying much higher, DJI does not want you hit anything up in the sky. Legally speaking tho, in most situations you are not suppose to fly higher than 122m.
Your videos look amazing! One note for you: it's megaBITS per second, not megabytes. They're two completely different measures. A lowercase b as in Mbps is bits; an uppercase B would be MBps as in megabytes but that's rarely if ever used. You'd more commonly see MB as an abbreviation for MegaBytes without the "per second" attached. Summary: Mbps is megabits per second.
I made a huge error in judgement and crashed my Air 2 into swift river. I just replaced it with the 2S and it's significantly better primarily with the camera (as if the Air 2 wasn't enough). The upper sensor the 2S has may have prevented the crash with my Air 2. Nice video!
The units you refer to as Mega BYTES per second is actually Mega BITS per second. 1 BYTE = 7 or 8 BITS depending on hardware & engineering. A MEGABYTE is 7-8x larger than a MEGABIT. When looking at abbreviations...the BYTE gets an uppercase B whereas the BIT gets a lowercase b. MB/s vs Mb/s. Big difference.
Saving starts now if I'm hoping to bring the Air 2S with me on my next travel! How good it must be to be able to fly this drone on picturesque locations!
IMO, you and one other Tuber do the best drone reviews. You’re informative, concise and comprehensive enough for a non-techie guy like me, thanks Jeven.
Thanks Jeven, really appreciate your in-depth content. It inspired me to buy a DJI Air 2 for work, I own a real estate firm. This drone definitely was a step up . Thanks Bro👍🏿
I almost hit the add to cart on this drone, everything look great so far with this drone with 1" CMOS 20MP sensor, new OcuSync (2.4/5.8GHz), etc. except for the active tracking - sensing system failed! I was waiting for this drone for my biking but after watching the test run by DC Rainmaker, I therefore conclude that Skydio still the best in market for obstacle avoidance technology.
Not in the least bit excited for the 2S but way more excited to consider a DJI Pocket 3 with a 1 inch sensor since DJI tends to pair them together and leap frog them. In the order of Mavic Air/OSMO Pocket, Air 2/Pocket2. So lets hope for 2S/Pocket 3 to continue the tradition of sharing the same sensor. And with that Moaz screen competition, lets see if DJI will use that accessory port to include a flippy screen and a 1 inch sensor!!!!
would love to see DJI bring into their controller lines some type of control lock for when your alone trying to get a shot and just need to pocket the controller or put it into your bag
If it only had sensors on the sides i will definitely buy it! It something that i really want in this drones! You worry less about crashing and avoid reapairs
Really, really important point indeed. Entirely possible that the sensor can't do 60fps without cropping which would be why the Pro with its Hasselbleh sensor can't do 60fps.

I bought the mavic air 2 a month or two ago. Great drone, loving it. Maybe should've waited for this one but I believe everything happens for a reason lol
Agree! I purchased mine a2 a month ago and honestly didn't know they were coming out with a new one a few days after. Had no clue it was gonna be almost the same price as the air 2!
Just ordered my own. Very familiar with Multi-Rotor Drones. Very nice. The Hex-copter 6 blade is the largest, with 15" props. Love the Splash Drone. Well, keep up the good work and looking forward to flying it. 30 in my collection. 500 R/C Aircraft too. Have a Great Memorial Day. AKA: Captain Morgan.
The flying characteristics out of the box are amazing. Sensors? I don't use them because in general they hinder flight and I also shut off the volume so that I and anyone else around me don't have to listen to beep, beep, beep, beep.... The only time I would use the sensors is if I ever used an intelligent mode.
We dont need to upgrade to change air2s . We know the mavic 3 will open soon asap. You know, when air2s shoot with 4k/60fps, the camera shoot with little bit crop. Means, not 1". That is 1"/1.7.
Jeven, awesome review on the Air2s. Very informative and honest review. I have Phantom 3 4K and DJI spark. Definitely thinking about upgrading since mind are antiques now. Haha!
Smart move to wait for the Mavic 3 to show up. I myself have a M2P, Mini 2 and Phantom drones. I rather getting a Kawasaki Ninja 400 motorcycle, while waiting for the M3P to come out but I heard that it will come next year.
@@carlad2640 Sony is currently the only producer of 1" sensor. They sell it to anyone wants to buy it, like DJI, Panasonic and even Canon. All Sony sensor are named "IMX xxx" where xxx is a number.
That's what I just pondered. It sounds like a glitch. It's 60p, but not the full 5.4K. So with less resolution, it shouldn't need to crop to compensate.
Super Awesome video. I so want to get one but I just got my Air 2 less than 6 months ago. Thanks Jeven for making lots of great shots and showing everyone the new things that you can do with this awesome new product. --chris
Great video mate, and someone who like me, that still shoot 1080p 60fps, i choose to pick mini 2 and mavic air 2. about 1 inch sensor upgrade, i think that more like MFT to APS-C kinda upgrade, not like MFT to Fullframe.
Man, I'm so torn. I just picked up a Mini 2 for a two-week trip to Hawaii. I love the small size. But now I'm wondering if I should upgrade while it's still in the return period. The Mini 2 is so grab-n-go and the A2S will take more room in the luggage and just carrying around in general. But it has some great features (minus the 4k/60fps crop).
Hi Jeven, though I am a huge fan of your channel; I must say that the 2S can not hold a candle to a Skydio when it comes to Mountain Biking. However, I do look forward to your video on "tracking." As always, thanks for all your informative videos. Jg
The fact that it zooms 2x at 4k 60 is confusing to me... I still have time to return my drone, but am not sure if I want to give up 4k 60fps in a wide view.
Nai. Sticking with my air 2. I'll wait until the version 3 gets near the skydio active track level, then off goes the air 2 to a happy budget friendly individual from Craigslist.
Thanks again for the info. I went ahead and got the drone and I love it for the most part. I'm really unhappy with the "follow me," I'm finding it fails about more than 50% of the time when I'm on my motorcycle.
Thanks for all your work and tutorials Jeven, it’s amazing. I have a question about the 4k60 crop issue on this drone. Has this been fixed with a firmware update or is it a hardware limitation? I’m interested in purchasing this drone but wanted to know if it was corrected. Not a deal breaker but I would like 4k60 to work properly.

Reason number 11 to get the Air 2s, because the GPS on the Mavic 3 sucks.
Between dji mini 3 (non pro) and dji air 2s, which is best overall?

Wow super excited about the future drones from DJI. This is incredible.
Great review, mate. Thanks for shining light on the 2x crop in 4K 60fps.
Leave it to DJI for making "this is the best DJI drone" a very arguable statement.
But no mission capability...
@@teejaystudio Go look somewhere else, when did DJI advertise these drones for "mission capability" you're looking at the wrong market
@@teejaystudio what even is "mission capability"? Are you using drones for military strikes? 🤣
I got it! It's amazing. Fly and capture like a pro!

literally sitting at home waiting for the delivered notification 😭😭 so hyped
FYI DJI has acquired hasselblad...so the DJI one inch sensor you mentioned is indeed a Hasselblad one inch sensor.
FInally a quick concise review< thanks chief.

That Drone is enticing, but I'm going to hold out and see if they release a Mavic 3 pro, my 2 pro serves me well enough for now.
agree my friend 😎😎

Perfect drone if it had side sensors.
It doesn’t have them but it’s still omnidirectional. I have it and honestly the side sensors don’t matter and would just be a waste of money
Ording it like now now. It will keep me busy for 3 years at least. That 10bit is all I need.
Very good video Jeven.
Thank you very much!
Preciate the video. Well put together and very informative. Keep posting!!

Master shots 😤
Love my Air2S!!
Worth adding that actual sensor diagonal is nowhere near 1 inch. Sensor dimensions: 13.2 x 8.8mm
3:19 megabits, divide by 8 for megabytes
Guys, there is no Dji or Hasselblad sensor. All the sensors are provided by Sony. This is the same type you can find in a Sony RX100, for example.
Where did you get this info? I do believe btw as I think theh provide the sensor to Nikon too.
@@carlad2640 Sony is currently the only producer of 1" sensor. They sell it to anyone wants to buy it, like DJI, Panasonic and even Canon. All Sony sensor are named "IMX xxx" where xxx is a number.
Yep. Gonna buy this. Good vid.
Is the crop issue when shooting 4k 60 possibly something DJI might fix with a software update?
That's what I just pondered. It sounds like a glitch. It's 60p, but not the full 5.4K. So with less resolution, it shouldn't need to crop to compensate.
i hope so!✔
I hope no glitch for 60p with 5.4K resolution. It's not compatible. Am I right.

A variable aperture is what we need.
I'm sure we'll see it on the next Pro that comes out
data transfer rates are measured in "bits." It should be megabits per second. megabytes would be insane rate but that's a storage unit.
