    General info

    is weather-sealed (splashproof)
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The device is protected with extra seals to prevent failures caused by dust, raindrops, and water splashes.
    is dustproof and water-resistant
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
    volume

    1978.37 cm³

    1555.4 cm³

    Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
    weight

    430 g

    249 g

    We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
    The minimum temperature at which the device can perform to the optimal level.
    The maximum temperature at which the device can perform to the optimal level.
    height

    64 mm

    202 mm

    The height represents the vertical dimension of the product.
    thickness

    168 mm

    55 mm

    The thickness (or depth) of the product.
    width

    184 mm

    140 mm

    The width represents the horizontal dimension of the product.

    Performance

    The maximum duration of an uninterrupted flight. The average flight time for a consumer drone is between 10 and 25 minutes.
    The longest distance the drone can fly from its controller.
    The maximum speed the drone can reach. Commercial drones are limited by law to 44.7 meters per second (100 miles per hour).
    Obstacle detection
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    Drones with obstacle detection use various sensors to detect objects in front of them in order to avoid collisions. Newer models have obstacle detection sensors on all sides.
    Intelligent flight modes
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    Intelligent flight modes allow you to set specific parameters for flights, such as specifying a flight path that the drone will follow or setting the drone to follow a moving object.
    Return to Home (RTH)
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The Return to Home (RTH) is an automated flight function that enables the drone to come back by itself to the place it took off from.

    Cameras

    The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
    maximum ISO

    3200 ISO

    3200 ISO

    With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.
    shoots raw
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    A raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. Raw files are so named because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.
    movie bitrate

    100 Mbps

    40 Mbps

    The higher the movie recording bitrate the better the movie quality with more and crispier details and less compression artifacts.
    video recording (main camera)

    2160 x 30 fps

    1530 x 30 fps

    The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
    Field of view (FOV) is the part of the world that a device can view and record. A wider field of view allows you to capture more of the action.
    has a built-in HDR mode
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    It can automatically shoot pictures with a higher dynamic range (HDR).
    has a serial shot mode
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The burst mode, also called serial shot mode or continuous shooting mode, allows you to shoot multiple photos in a row.
    has a CMOS sensor
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    CMOS image sensors are slowly replacing CCD sensors, due to reduced power consumption and better image quality. They can be very compact and cost relatively little to produce.

    Battery

    battery power

    2375 mAh

    2600 mAh

    Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
    charge time

    Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (DJI Mavic Air)

    1.5 hours

    The time it takes to fully charge the battery.
    has a removable battery
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.

    Features

    has an external memory slot
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    The device has a standard memory slot (such as an SD or micro SD card slot) that enables you to extend the built-in internal storage with affordable memory modules, or easily retrieve data, such as photographs, from the memory card.
    has GPS
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    GPS enables global positioning, useful in map, geo-tagging or navigation apps.
    has a gyroscope
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    A gyroscope is a sensor that tracks the orientation of a device, more specifically by measuring the angular rotational velocity. Initially, they were built using a spinning rotor to detect changes in orientation, like twisting or rotation.
    internal storage

    8GB

    Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (DJI Mavic Mini)

    The internal storage refers to the built-in storage space available in a device for system data, apps, and user-generated data. With a large amount of internal storage, you can save more files and apps on your device.
    supports a remote smartphone
    DJI Mavic Air
    DJI Mavic Mini
    This technology allows the users to use their smartphone as a remote control for the device.
    has a compass
