I compared the original 2016 DJI Mavic Pro with the Mini 5 Pro, how far have we really come in 9 years?
Hi,
I still had the original Mavic Pro from 2016, so I thought it would be interesting to see how much DJI drones have actually evolved in 9 years.
I put it head-to-head with the Mini 5 Pro, comparing image quality, flight experience, real-world battery life and a few other things.
What surprised me most is that the old Mavic isn't as completely outdated as I expected in some areas, although the difference in size and modern camera capabilities is pretty crazy.
It's in French, but there are side-by-side shots and comparisons that should be easy to follow even if you don't speak French.
I'd actually be interested to hear from people who owned the original Mavic Pro: what was your first DJI drone, and do you think today's Mini series represents as big a leap as the specs suggest?
Thanks
