DJI Mini 4 Pro, Folding Mini-Drone with 4K HDR Video Camera for Adults, Under 0.549 lbs/249 g, 34 Mins Flight Time, 20 km Max Video Transmission Distance, Omnidirectional Vision Sensing (Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo (DJI RC 2))

After getting my PArt 107 certificate this was my first drone purchase and I absolutely love it. I was bothered by all the other sellers offering a bunch of extras and jacking up the price. Thankfully, Adorama did do that in their store and I was able to buy the standard Fly More pack minus the ridiculous markup.I purchased Asurion coverage and hope I never have to use it but I had a little reminder when I learned more about the DJI Refresh. I'm not sure which would be better so make sure you do your homework before you purchase because you can only add DJI Refresh within 48 hours of purchasing a new DJI drone. The DJI Fly app will notify you once you have it all activated/installed.The RC-2 controller is what makes this deal sweet. It works with other DJI drones. It also keeps you from dealing with your phone to fly. So no phone batteries dying or notifications/calls while in flight.The only caution I would add is that there are limited instructions in the box. There are videos available that the app points you to. Don't expect to have a huge manual teaching you to fly and operate the drone.Obstacle avoidance does work but with limitations. So be careful. At dusk you will receive a message in the app that obstacle avoidance is disabled due to low light. Believe it and adjust your flying. It also doess not respond to thin objects like wires, thin tree limbs, etc. always keep a visual in it when flying near those objects. Finally... Avoid flying backwards or sideways unless you are in a position to observe the drone in flight and it's surroundings. And definitely don't fly backwards while still zoomed in on a subject/objects. It is hard to hide the distance and if you move back you may be close to an object to the rear of the drone and not realize it.Overall...awesome little drone! Tons of great features.

The DJI Mini 4 Pro is proof that big things really do come in small, foldable packages. Weighing in under 250g, this little beast dodges registration requirements while packing a serious punch in performance.The 4K video quality is stunning—crisp, vibrant, and buttery smooth thanks to the upgraded image sensor and stabilization. It handles low light like a champ, and the HDR capabilities make every shot look professionally edited, straight out of the drone.What really impressed me was the obstacle avoidance. With omnidirectional sensors, it’s like the drone has a sixth sense for danger—making it almost impossible to crash unless you try (please don’t). It feels smart, responsive, and incredibly beginner-friendly while still offering enough power for seasoned pilots to get cinematic.The battery life is solid, the range is more than enough for most needs, and the new ActiveTrack and Waypoint Flight features are intuitive and fun to use. Whether you’re capturing sweeping landscapes or sneaking through tight tree gaps, the Mini 4 Pro handles it like a drone twice its size and price.Verdict: 10/10 – Compact, intelligent, and capable of jaw-dropping footage. The DJI Mini 4 Pro is a dream for hobbyists, content creators, and drone nerds alike!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:The DJI Mini Pro 4 is such a step up from my previously owned DJI Mini Pro 3. The crash detection is so helpful as well as the peg legs for landing. Set up was easy and straightforward. Packaging was beautiful. The drone takes amazing photos. Very happy!

Folds up small, flies like a pro, films like a movie studio. Setup was so easy I assumed I missed a step. Haven’t crashed yet, thank you obstacle avoidance. Family and friends think I’m a drone prodigy. In reality, it’s about 10% skill and 90% DJI technology. It’s small enough to go everywhere, smart enough to fly safely, and powerful enough to make you look like a professional. If you want a drone that delivers serious results without needing a license, this is it. Highly recommend!

I have never been so satisfied with a product and ease of use before. If you are a beginner, this is hands down the best. On the first flight, there is a tutorial on the screen of the controller that teaches you how to launch, fly and land.This drone self launches and lands. Literally, my 3 and 5 yr old were able to launch and land it.I ordered an extra battery, charger, pad and little landing legs. Id highly suggest buying the landing feet too.I have yet to transfer videos to my phone or learn the camera, but the camera is excellent and screen quality is very good.*Id suggest just going all in and buying the package with extra batteries, sd card and accessories.

Had for three days am not an amateur was excited about the omnidirectional sensing and am here to tell you that DJI will not honor their DJI refresh unless you buy the fly plus version even tho the drone comes with all the advertising that it does. Was flying above a river and the aircraft suddenly veered starboard nothing on the port side at all to have the sensors activate more then 40 ft of open water was more then 60 ft off the water in altitude and it slammed into a large beach full of leaves and plummeted into the rapids. I would not recommend buying this drone or anything from DJI I am extremely disappointed in the customer service and the promised stability seems to be a very fault heavy drone as it has on more then one occasion decided to not land no matter what even if I had the sensors off. Clipped my fingers more then once having to grab it from mid air. Have or rather had the Rc2 controller package.The find my drone ability is absolutely useless once it hit the water and said it was at my house more then forty miles away. The video I would have shared of the incident never recorded to the remote as the drone will not save the recording if turned off or loses power which obviously happened instantly.DO NOT BUY THIS DRONE!

The best thing ever.

Awesome range and picture quality. Best of all light enough that you can fly in places heavier drones can not
