DJI Neo 2
#4 in Mini & Nano Drones · Rated 4.0
Pocket-friendly selfie-style drone with 4K and LiDAR-like sensing (where available)
DJI Neo is a palm-sized, ultra-light drone designed for quick, social-ready clips. The original Neo (135 g) and its successor Neo 2 offer a balance of portability and camera performance, with 4K video and improved subject tracking. Neo 2 expands sensing capabilities with a mix of vision-based and LiDAR-inspired features and adds a two-axis gimbal upgrade over the first model. It’s positioned as an accessible option for casual creators who want reliable auto-filming, built-in safety features, and easy hand-takeoff. While it trails behind the Mini line in camera specs, its ultra-compact footprint makes it a compelling everyday carry in many regions.
