The DJI Mavic Mini is a perfectly timed masterstroke on DJI's part. It tackles drone law changes across the US and UK head-on, while also delivering great video quality in a premium, compact body.
Smart, collapsible design Incredibly stable video capture Impressive battery life No registration needed
No 4K or 60fps 2.7K video No object tracking Micro USB charging, not USB-C
The DJI Mavic Mini is a masterful balance of portability, price, image quality, and convenience. Its featherweight, foldable design means you can fly it without needing to register it first, and despite its size it still manages to offer remarkably...

DJI's first 'toy drone' is tiny, affordable and lots of fun. What camera features does it offer and what specification lacks though? Here's our review
Much more affordable than any previous DJI drone ; Easy to fly ; Smooth footage ; QuickShot modes are fun to use ; Battery life is decent for the size
GPS/Location didn't work for remembering take-off point ; It won't like strong winds ; QuickShot options limited compared to bigger models ; Slow charging batteries
If you're after an easy, affordable way to get into the world of drones, the Mavic Mini is a superb option. Considering its size and how inexpensive it is, the performance and features on offer are fantastic.

Light enough to go unregistered
Absolutely dinky ; No CAA registration needed ; Fantastic stabilisation ; Great battery life
No 4K capture ; No object tracking ; Limited image control
Dinky drones don’t come more feature-packed, and bigger drones need to be registered, making the DJI Mavic Mini a drone in a league of its own

DJI continues its world domination for consumer drones: the Mavic Mini offers a lot in a sub-250g package for a very reasonable price.
Expert review by : Drew Prindle (digitaltrends.com)
DJI's Mavic Mini is the lightest and cheapest addition to the Mavic line -- but it's light weight and low price don't come without some compromises. It's also missing a few notable features that made previous iterations of the Mavic line so great
Easy to start flying ; Stable, reliable manners ; Extremely light and compact ; Impressive battery life ; No FAA registration required

The Mavic Mini takes everything DJI has learned about flying cameras and crams it into the smallest drone from the company to date. At just 249 grams, it's light and incredibly portable. It still flies like a champ and comes with a solid camera for the...
Small yet capable in the air ; Solid camera performance with some caveats ; Stellar battery life
Video link a little flaky at times ; Lacks some core camera features ; Fewer smart modes

The DJI Mavic Mini is a lightweight drone that you don't have to register, but spotty connectivity makes it hard to recommend wholeheartedly.
Expert review by : Mike Prospero (tomsguide.com)
The Mavic Mini is the best drone for most people.
matter is the Mavic Mini’s $399 starting price, ease of use and its half-hour endurance, more than enough flight time for you to get your fix.

With a nip and tuck, the DJI Mavic Mini Drone has the ability to sidestep new regulations whilst retaining the flagship image quality. Read our review here.

Drone flying is neither easier or more fun than with DJI Mavic Mini Combo.
Super easy to fly, good video quality, good battery life and many setting options for both amateurs and advanced. Lots of fun for the money.
Does not have 4K video. Image noise when shooting in low light.
The small DJI Mavic Mini drone is so easy to use and easy to fly, that anyone can make it happen. The drone is not only very fun to fly and film with, it can also be used for useful things. The controller is easy to relate to, and the DJI app is well...
