I feel like there are a lot of short, fake reviews for this product. Most people agree this drone/brand is a market leader for technology, price, and value. If you never have flown a DJI drone before, you should watch some youtube reviews. The intelligence in the brand is far and above any drone, I have worked with. All of the drones take advantage of the same technology, so you get some really high-end features for a mid-priced drone. Key things I like:
- Amazing compact, it is extremely small and light to travel with, even with extra batteries
- Sport Mode is amazing to play with if you have the space, 37mph one way the turning on a dime, AWESOME!
- I flew 1.2 miles from my controller before losing video and triggering the auto return to home, with 40% battery when landing.
- It has a ton of crash deterrent and recovery features; start in beginner mode, watch the short training videos, don't fly in urban or crowded areas and you will have a great time
There are no complaints I really have for this drone... The only complaint I have is it is hard to do a side by side comparison of the drone models on the company's website. Youtube had some great comparison of the features which is normally around camera quality, drone hardware size effecting battery and flight duration but does not affect the underlying technology features.
Finally, if you are worried about crashing, you can buy insurance for the first 48 hours of activating the drone from DJI. Replacement is reasonably priced.

A marvel of engineering and designMavic Air was built to go wherever adventure takes you. Inheriting the best of the Mavic series, this ultraportable and foldable drone features high-end flight performance and functionality for limitless exploration |
3-Axis Gimbal CameraThe Mavic Air is the most portable DJI drone to house a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, with its angular vibration range reduced to 0.005°. Set in a triangular formation, gimbal dampeners help create even steadier shots. |
32 MP Sphere PanoramasIn addition to Horizontal, Vertical, and 180° panoramas, the Mavic Air stitches 25 photos together in just eight seconds to create crystal-clear 32 MP Sphere panoramas.1 View them from an immersive perspective with DJI Goggles. |
4K 100 Mbps VideoThe Mavic Air shoots video at an incredible 4K 30 fps, recording at 100 Mbps to capture every second with UHD quality. |

|---|---|---|---|
Slow-Motion VideoWith support for recording 1080p 120 fps slow-motion video, the Mavic Air captures all your epic high-speed adventures. |
HDR PhotosNew HDR algorithms help you obtain the right exposure settings intelligently, according to lighting conditions. Overexposed or dark areas are processed for more natural transitions between highlights and shadows, while DSP acceleration allows for more efficient shooting. |
Geometric EleganceExpressing geometric precision, the Mavic Air's arms fold flush against its aerodynamic chassis. Magnesium alloy brackets reinforce the seven onboard cameras, rear vents dissipate heat efficiently, and the primary gimbal camera is recessed for better protection. |
3D Foldable DesignAs tall and wide as a smartphone when folded, the Mavic Air is an ultraportable drone that stretches the boundaries of what's possible for a device its size. |

ActiveTrackActiveTrack can sense up to 16 selectable subjects simultaneously,2 letting you choose the right tracking subject. With higher tracking precision and broader scenario applications, ActiveTrack follows targets even when they're running, jumping, or cycling. |
