Our Take
The DJI Mini 4 Pro packs professional-grade camera technology into a sub-249g body that requires no registration in most countries. With a 1/1.3-inch sensor, 4K/60fps HDR video, omnidirectional obstacle sensing, and 34-minute flight time, it is the most capable lightweight drone on the market.

- Exceptional image quality from a compact sensor

- Strong wind resistance (Level 5) for a small drone
Where it falls short
