Congrats Engadget, this review was more informative and to the point than 95% of the influencer "reviews" flooding TH-cam about this drone!
Yeah its pretty bad how shilling dji dronetubers have become
this is getting better and better, I can’t keep up. take my money
love the advanced testing of the capability of the sensors.
can't wait to see what I can do with my new but refurbished 4pro Drone.
Thanks very much for the superb review. Very professional and HELPFUL for making a purchase decision. Keep up the great work!
Top-notch review. Sweet, short, and to the point.
You can fix a lot of the issues with lighting within the photos you take in post.
This drone is a great tool
Just setting mine up!
Still rockin' my Mini 2.
Still rocking my Spark
I got my mini 1. It still is awesome. Hopefully it keeps ticking!
Me too. Mini 4 looks tempting tho but may wait abit.
@@neilwhitley7540 yeah, that price tag is 2x the mini 1
Well I'm going to upgrading to the new Mini 4 pro.....😊 Still love my Mini 2 though. Great review, have subscribed 😎 👍🏻 🇬🇧
Looks good
Hi, would I be able to use all the possible features on RC N2 that RC 2 offers along with the mini pro 4? For eg: would I be able to use active 360 tracking on N2 controller, etc? Thanks in advance!
yikes why is the video so sharp then grainy what setting was this to avoid
Very nice drone. I would buy it if I had places to fly it. Currently, have the Original mavic Air & and still works great.
Mini 4 is the best for travel
How does the zoom compare to the DJI 3 Pro? I’ve heard photos are 2x whereas they used to be 4x?
My biggest complaint about the mini 3 pro was it’s inability to “follow” me from the front while traveling backward to get good shots of the front of me. Can this do that with the improved obstacle avoidance? Or does active track still only follow you from behind?
Still rocking the mavic 2 small compact and good image
Hello
I have Q1 drone its wifi showing on iphone but not showing in android mobile any solution?
Is the air 3 obstacle avoidance better than this or about the same? As far as hitting branches and such?
quick question. When you were running among trees the image from the drone lost clarity and crispness, got sketchy and flickery. My imagination? My computer? or is this real? I've seen this happen with GoPro imagery for motorcycle filming by riders. In those videos it's beyond annoying. What happens with the DJI Mini 4 pro? Thanks
I think it's crazy that it informs about electricity when it should be able to have enough to get home. But there are far too many rules in Denmark about where to fly. We even live less than 5 Km. From an air station and zero flight
how's it for taking pictures?
It's all so good to learn to fly in a large room or hall teach
I've been close to pulling the trigger on a Mini 3 Pro after the photographer taking photos of ym home let me fly his for about 25 minutes. I thought it was great. But the upgrades, like avoidance detection and new controllers, have me ready to go all in on a Mini 4 Pro.
Obstacle avoidance is disabled when flying in sport mode and in low light situations. It all comes down to what you need the drone for and the time of day that you'll be flying it.
Yeah for photos a cheaper mini 3 pro will get you by
any idea what the minimum speed is? I miss the "tripod mode" with the super slow speeds. Also are the slow motion settings still able to use the D-Log or HLG modes?
5:35....what about the smart controller! The OG? Compatible with the mini 2 as well
hello. I have the Mavic air 2 and I am considering selling it to buy the mini 4 pro. Will it be worth making the change?
@3:30 There was a Jimny :)
Hi my friend i bought a mini 4 pro and i was wandering if i buy the goggles 2 will that work? Thanks
Not at the moment due to the Ocusync 4 limitation
Does active track support 4K60 now? Instead of just 4K30?
good question.
Hello! If I fly the drone manually, do the sensors still do their job? Or are they only active in quickshots and active track? If a bird approaches the drone, will it avoid the collision? Thank you!
Definitely active when flying manually as well.
@@stevetdent Thx!
It's not active if you fly in sport mode
Also these drones don't avoid birds well since there's no sensors on the top upper portion or the rear of these drones.
@@seyanbryan520 Thank you!!!
This is off-topic, but where was this shot (for example 4:49 and 5:59)? Looks like a lovely region to travel to!
Never mind. Briare, France 🙂
5:20 not appears. It’s confirmed that batteries are backwards compatible. The only problem is that M3P batteries are heavier than the M4P so not legal to fly with
Does active track support slow motion shooting? 60fps? 50fps? Why do reviewers never go into this?
No I don't think it does
Worth upgrading from dji Mavic pro?
1:07 - Not in the EU. Unfortunately, every drone that has a camera (even under 250 grams) needs to be registered, and the operator as well. Starting in 2024, there will be no advantage to owning a 250-gram drone (Mini series) or a 720-gram drone (Air 3). The rules will be the same.
I thought it was depending on when the drone was released, if released before 2024 the old rules still apply? I may have misunderstood though
I’ve never had one before and am planning to buy one very soon , is it hard to control ?
2 mouths ago i bought the mini 3 pro. It's pretty user friendly and I am comfortable flying it now. They are amazing. I am going to buy the mini 4 pro and sell my mini3
Have 8 interchangeable mini and mini 2 batteries. Technically I can fly in perpetuity. I wish they could decide on one battery for years into the Mini series to avoid the fly more package. However 40 minutes in the air is a extremely long time.
The 40min is based on perfect conditions. It's more like 28 minutes before it auto returns to home.
Yeah the newer mini 3 battery seems to be the new standard.
Its bullshit when you have tons of mini 2 batteries
What's the name of that church, nice shot
Does the mini 4 pro have a stacked sensor like the air 3?
No
Will the mini 3 pro fly more batteries fit the mini4 pro ?
Yes
Does Mini 4 battery work in Mini 3?
No
🔝 drone if you don't have it, the investment is not worth it at all. For the videos on my TH-cam channel I will continue to use the DJI Mini 3 Pro 💪
Those so-called "Swooping Movements" -when setting "Camera Motion" to Fast can be stress-inducing. I put Care Refresh replacement insurance on this one, a)because it's only $79 USD vs. $239 for my Mavic 3 Pro, and b) makes sense since I am more willing to put this one in risky situations than my $4500 investment in Mavic 3 Pro & RC Pro Controller. The drone mostly handles obstacles well, but in "Fast Camera Motion" I nearly stroke out around obstacles, while the little guy "swoops away" and peeks at me, cheekily, between tree branches.
Does this guy live in Europe?
So in this video all footage is very stuttery and not smooth at all. No idea if that came from your side or from DJIs side, but for a video showcasing its quality it'd be best to get the best possible results...
What is the price?
8:45
👍🏾
DJI will not be happy until they take all my money I see lol. Quick question do the batteries from the Mini 3 Pro work with the Pro 4? Also I have ND filters for the Mini 3 I'm hoping those work with the 4 as well. If batteries and filters work I'll make the upgrade to have the one controller that's gonna be used from here on.
Yes and yes
Yes on battery but the mini 3 battery is 3 grams heavier which puts this drone over 250 grams. And No on the ND filters. They changed them slightly.
@@TheSaint226 that sucks on the filters. I just bought a the newer set and now I gotta buy some new ones.
“Budget choice”???
Mini 2 Pro & 3 Pro pilot here. These videos are very stressful for me to watch.
@@stevedent2092 nope nope nope.
"if you can afford them" - after spending nearly 1K on a drone.
Camera is still not even close to Air2s and almost the same as DJI Mini 2. That`s a point buying this "new" model?
that was a very brave belly button reveal
You need ND filters 100% if you want professional cinematic clips
Also Autel nano IS the closest competition but the tracking sucks and the drones closer to 560 USD noe
Mini 3 batteries will make the mini 4 weigh 251grams. Caution.
20 km = 12 miles huh…..
So I can spy on my Ex gf house so is 6 miles away huh? 😂
JUST kidding
Why does everyone call it DGI its D "J" I 😂
The Chinese is 大疆. The second character leads with a sound that indeed sounds a lot like the letter G to a foreigner.
Max altitude 120 m, no thx.
can go up to 500
can you buy me one please
Ehhhhh. ...passss! I just don't see any real value upgrading from a mini 3 pro to a 4 pro.
Year hit the water with any of them and there fried. No they will become a drone when they become water proof. Dont waist ya money
This drone is pure JUNK do not buy. I have had 2 defective drones in 3 days. Screen freezes in flight arms get lose after a week of use. Pure JUNK. Stay away.
6:05 that is the Jumpman logo for sure
🙄So basically it’s the same model of the normal mini 3 ,but with active track sensors 360 degree.🤦🏽😂😂😂😂
I’ll stick with my normal mini 3 .
You have a Samurai? 🫡
