DJI Air 2S review: The user-friendliness, compact size and image quality of the Air 2S make it one of the most appealing drones around
Superb image quality ; Portable and lightweight ; Easy and safe to fly ; Good battery life
Non-adjustable aperture ; Rotors sometimes in shot
Expert review by : Derek Adams (t3.com)
The DJI Air 2S is a true game-changer, excelling in portability and features, and enabling you to shoot hi-res video and stills like a real pro. Here's our review
Sensational camera and shoots in 5.4K ; Four-sided obstacle avoidance ; Light and compact to carry ; Quiet in flight
Licensing is a bit complicated
The new DJI Air 2S is a sensational camera drone in every respect, from the quality of its ungraded camera to the plethora of advanced in-flight features. If you’re in the market for an affordable compact drone that flies beautifully and shoots...

The DJI Air 2S packs a serious punch thanks to its 1-inch sensor – it's now the best drone for most people.
1-inch 20 MP sensor Great image quality Small and lightweight
Controller isn’t foldable Image edges slightly soft No adjustable aperture
By combining the DJI Mavic Air 2's compact design and the Mavic 2 Pro's image quality, the Air 2S is now the best all-round drone you can buy. It delivers several new features over the Mavic Air 2, including a large 20MP 1-inch sensor and digital zoom,...

DJI's portable drone packs a serious punch. Read all about it in this comprehensive review.
1-inch sensor offers super pictures ; Advanced obstacle avoidance ; Portable and easy to carry around ; Great battery life ; ND filters in the Fly More combo are a nice touch
Rolling shutter effect is quite bad when moving quickly ; 4K/60 crops heavily into frame ; QuickShot shoots at Full HD ; It's not exactly cheap
The previous Air 2 sought to bring high-end features into a smaller form factor - and the Air 2S ups the ante further. Its 1-inch sensor offers great stills photography, while video capabilities outshine some more expensive drones.

Possibly the best consumer drone ever
Excellent camera ; Compact and portable design ; Simple setup and controls ; Packed with safety features
Rotors creep into shot sometimes ; No aperture adjustment ; Slightly lower battery life than Air 2
The best all-round camera drone on the market

The Air 2S is just worth the price rise over the Mavic Air 2 if you'll use its new capabilities such as shooting 10-bit video.
Expert review by : John Velasco (digitaltrends.com)
It's less than a year since the DJI Mavic Air 2 was released, but the DJI Air 2S makes a bold statement in being the best all-around drone in the market.
Captures sharp images ; Strong details from its 5.4K video ; Pro level clips with Mastershots ; Fun and safe to fly
Camera can sometimes hunt for focus

The DJI Air 2S is a small folding drone with a premium 1-inch sensor camera, 5.4K video, and a number of automated flight and safety features, making it a pro-minded alternative to the more affordable Mavic Air 2.

Large sensor ; Compact ; High-quality footage ; Responsive controls
Lacks following capabilities ; Some propellor intrusion
With its large sensor, 5K video, and adjustable gimbal responsiveness, the DJI Air 2S provides a smooth ride and high-quality footage. While the device itself is just medium in size, it still handles nicely in less-than-ideal weather conditions, and...

With only a few tiny setbacks, the DJI Air 2S is a fantastic drone for shooting professional-quality aerial video. With only a few tiny setbacks, the DJI Air 2S is a fantastic drone for shooting professional-quality aerial video.
