Thanks for the video. Just one note, "MB/s" would mean megabytes per second, not megabits as it's actually the case. There's quite a difference between the two, 8 times to be exact.
Interesting comparison and for myself it’s the DJI Mini 2 for the better photos and video, plus the Occusync Tx. Line of sight for me as I don’t see a need to go out kms etc..also it will work on my iPad pro with the DJI app...like a big screen TV. So I can see all the buttons and text ok...I use reading glasses..thanks Laurie NZ
Hi LWJCarroll, yes 100% agree - the Mini 2 is the complete package for the vast majority of people. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate your support! 🙏
Nice break down . I noticed one other difference between the mini SE and the mini 2 . The mini SE does not have the front light bar .. also four un mentioned differences between the mini 1 and the SE . The SE is using the upgraded brushless motors , the quieter props , and the mini2 arms (without the polystyrene packing) and the USBC motherboard from the mini 2 . Thanks.
ok I may be wrong but it sounds like the se is basically the mavic 2 but without all the cool Software. But shares the motors props arms and the mother board.
@@sheiladavis2304 Pretty sure you mean the Mini 2? Pretty much but also different camera/sensor, and a couple of other small cosmetic differences (no front light etc).
I am looking to purchase my 1st drone. I nearly pulled the trigger but saw your Mini 3 teaser videos and now I’m back on the fence. I went for a drive with the family today and kept on thinking what this place and that place would look like from above… so tempting to just go v2… November-ish feels like a long time to wait.
I have a mini, a mini 2, and Air 2. Get yourself a mini 2 to start. Don't worry about anything else you'll be happy. Unless you're the type that needs the newest thing. There's always going to be a new drone. And if the mini 3 comes out and you want that, Dji has a trade up option on their website.
Totally agree with the comments below - get the Mini 2. The Mini 3 may or may to come out this year, affected in a big way by the lack of microchips. Even if it does come out, you would have had many months of enjoyment with the Mini 2, including get alot of flying experience, which means you will be able to make an even more informed decision about wither or not the mini 3 is worth upgrading (for you). Go for the Mini 2 mate.
because the accessories for The Mavic Mini and The Mini 2 are all or mostly all compatible with the Mini SE I would get The SE for that reason alone. I have plenty batteries for both Mini/Mini 2 so I wouldn't need a fly more combo when purchasing the SE
Looking at the SE, the Mini 2 and the original Mini my person opinion is that the SE was released to get rid of excess original mini's. Right now if I was to purchase a Mini it would have to be the Mini 2. But with the rumours around that the Mini 3 will be dropping in a couple of months I would wait till the Mini 3 is released. Two reasons: 1. Old stock of the mini 2 in shops will probably be discounted 2. The SE is now old technology compared to the Mini 2.
Yes all very good reasons to wait. If you were dead keen to get going though, I wouldn't wait. Then if/when a Mini 3 comes out, you would have already had a few months at least of enjoyment, plus more experience flying, then you would be able to make an even more informed decision as to whether the Mini 3 was right for you. It's all personal choice in the end, but all of your reasons are very valid. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment 👍😊
Thanks for the video. I had the Mavic Pro and just found it too complex for pleasurable, quick use. I'm excited about the SE and watched a few videos on it and have just ordered it. It seems easy to use, offers decent quality, good flight time and its so cheap it ridiculous (paid $485 New Zealand Dollars). It will be great for my 9 year old too as its easy to fly. Who really needs to fly further than 4k anyway. I wont be to nervous on damaging it either like I was on the Mavic Pro when I owned it which just added to the stress of owning/using it.
I totally agree with you for all the reasons you have listed! Yes with the bigger, more complex, and more expensive drones there is alot more pressure - more pressure not to damage, to use all of the features so you don't feel like you have wasted your money. I love the simplicity of the smaller drones and you do get alot more pleasure flying them as a result. I love your comments - if you are ok I might include them in a future video?
@@tjridez6331 Thank you so much - I appreciate that. I just thought that it was just such an accurate comment that summed up perfectly much of what I was feeling myself. Thank you - and enjoy the Mini 2! Thank you for replying 🙏
thanks for the comparison although still kinda confused as to if its worth upgrading to mini 2 instead of buying SE for batteries, transmutation radius and the upgraded controller. I mean what is the difference in the two controllers?
I would definitely consider the upgrade. The range alone is worth it, and the controller supports that. The controllers are quite different if you compare them.
I am wanting to purchase the Mini 2 (new to drones), but recently there have been so many rumors of a Mini 3 or 2s. Should I just bite the bullet and get the 2 and then in a few years upgrade to the 3, 3s, 4, or whatever it turns out to be? I’m thinking just have fun now and save up again for something a few years down the road.
Yes mate, I would go ahead and get the mini 2 - it is a fantastic drone for the money, and look, even if a Mini 3 comes out in the near future, at least you would have had several months of enjoyment with it. Plus you would also have gotten the experience as well, which means you can make an even more informed decision about whether the Mini 3 or other drone is worth it for you to upgrade. go for it now, you won't regret it.👍
oh, doesn't the mini 2 also have a zoom on the cam of 4x where the SE cam can not zoom ? which is a huge feature, no ? and Question, is the 31 max flight time refer to just One battery, if flying in the more eco friendly way ? or do you have to have the 3 battery package to get 31 mins ?
Great video, this is the first proper comparison video of the mini se to mini 2 that provides real world applications. But surely the price difference of almost 150% for the mini 2 can’t be worth it for the transmission stability alone? How bad is the enhanced WiFi especially in NZ, where the drones can come as FCC, and must remain in VLoS which for this drone is ~500m?
Thanks for that - I appreciate it! To be honest the signal is not too bad. It is like a lot of places - line of sight is important. Plus if you fly in more urban situations then yes you will get interference. between the two though I find theta line of sight is more important - I still get drop outs on my mini 2 if the line of sight is not great.
It's definitely on the list of countries that will get it - as per below plus other comments I have had is that it is available for pre-order so they will get it but they don't have stock yet.
Because the accessories for The Mavic Mini and The Mini 2 are all or mostly all compatible with the Mini SE I would get The SE for that reason alone. I have plenty batteries and lights, ND filters, Landing gear etc, for both Mini/Mini 2 so I wouldn't need a fly more combo when purchasing the SE
Good job mate, thanks for the video I just subscribed to learn more on you. Looking for great starter drone for me to get a good video on the beefarm I work at here in New Zealand. Cheers
I watched a video of yours about how easily the transfer of pictures and videos are from the mini 2 to a iPhone and then onto Instagram. I was curious about the process of doing that with the SE. I have never owned a drone but want something that I can use on family vacations, taking shots of the outdoors around my community and just for a fun hobby. So I am torn between the mini 2 and the SE and haven’t found much info on transferring pics and video with the SE. Thank you
Is NZ a CE or FCC country ? (I have read different reports) As in the original MM the transmission freq limitations were different (CE or FCC) it seems it will be the case on the SE... Which model is being sold in NZ ?
Thank you for watching. My advice would be get the Mini 2. I WOULD suggest the Mini 2 flymore, but if you don't want to do that, still get the mini 2. If you find you need a little more gear later, like another battery you can. You will get better performance from the Mini 2. But seriously, highly consider paying a bit extra for the flymore combo if you can.
The only difference that I care about is the price. The SE is $299 US and the Mini 2 is over $400 US. I want to find out if I am any good with drones before I sink a lot of money into one. If I upgrade, it will be the Mini 3 or something along this quality.
Why would the range be a big deal to people when you must remain in LOS of your drone, like it wouldn't be that far away until you can't see the drone anymore. Or does line of sight mean as long as nothing goes inbetween you and the drone then you can go as far as you like and doesn't matter if you can still physically see it or not?
Hi Brad, you're right, depending on the jurisdiction you are in, most will say you need to keep you drone in line of sight at all times, without the aid of anything like binoculars etc. So yes given that the best you could do would be a few hundred metres, the extended (transmission) range of the drone in this sense is a moot point. However for most of us we take the long range as a sign of signal strength, meaning that in normal use situations (within a few hundred metres) you should have a very good signal. Some drones do suffer from poor connection strength, even at short distances like that.
Wow this is so cool .. I'm keen on buying the latest one .. a personal demo would be awesome. Can I book that in with you. I live approx 2 1/2 hours from you :)
I have to say… I bought the mini SE and used it enough within the return period to realize it’s not it. It’s more of a kid’s drone. It doesn’t go very far at all without losing signal, and the battery life just isnt the best. It took me 2 hours for a full charge and in less than 20 minutes it was already down to 30% charge. I returned it in exchange for the mini 2. Am waiting for it to get delivered for me tomorrow
Mini 2 battery probably isn't that much better. Nothing is so damn small people will think it's a toy anyways.... The transmission and camera will have you thinking otherwise. SE is a great beginner drone but the mini 2 can actually be used professionally
my opinion is that the mini 2 is the perfect drone. For starters and mid people. The SE is just the pro max version. Just like apple. Publicity stand. I prefer the mini 2. (I piloted both.)
@@GetBusyLiving Thanks for your vids :) I'm afraid of buyer's remorse as there are so many potential improvements for a Mini 3 - some of these I'd think would be fairly realistic: - collision avoidance - active track - 4K 60fps - improved low-light image - better wind resistance - longer max battery life - higher quality image transfer - maybe even optical zoom Will have to see, may try and see if there is going to be anything by the end of the year and if not then probs go Mini 2.
Next time yall do a comparison video, please make a simple table with the specs side by side at the end of the video to summarize it. It will help people have an apple to apple view in a single page.
Just sharing actually not sure how the price there in NZ but where I am from there is just a $10 difference. For the fly more combo for both drones. But thanks for the details.
I have a 12 year old son that loves to fly drones, he wants to shoot some footage with a drone and post it on youtube for a hobby, he says that the "mini se fly more combo is good" I dont know what that means so can you please check what it is since im not that tech savvy? thanks.
The Mini SE is over-priced, by 33% I have the Mini 2, and believe it is also OVER-PRICED. Won't be getting another DJI , DJI "PUSH" / "SET" the price (too high) , and competitors come "close to" / "just below" with their prices ( which is too high for the quality of their drones) MJX 16 Pro is A great alternative Thanks for your review.
Yes, so true. Here in Malaysia, the mini se is at RM1349 whereas mini 2 at RM1899. It's a very large number for many of us where our country min wage p is only RM1200 per month. As a student, I patiently waiting for the right time and price to buy used drone in the second hand market :')
Yes totally agree re the signal. I love showing people how easy these things are to fly - I think if more people knew then more would get one - they are scary for alot of people until they actually try it.
@@GetBusyLiving I remember the days when I learnt on a racing drone and only assistance was gyroscope and that's it, my heart was beating so hard then I flew the first dji mavic and I was like wow I feel like I am telling the drone what to do more than actually flying it
@@Cobrabird No I think you should go ahead and get the Mini 2. The Mini 3 is still speculation at this stage and there are no real indications it is coming anytime soo. anyway, if it does, you would have had a few months at least, of experience with the Mini 2, which will give you enjoyment plus allow you to hone your skills as a pilot. Plus you will be in a better position to know if it is worth upgrading to the Mini 3 or if the mini 2 is fine for your needs. My advice, buy the Mini 2 today.
It's highly possible mate, but no-one really knows at this point. To be honest i don't mind what they call it, as long as it has some upgrades I mention here ruclips.net/video/gEE1YTmAw8k/видео.html
@@GetBusyLiving I saw that as well, but personally I’m betting on a 2S, not that it really matters in the end. Still loving the mini 2 with no regrets.
It wasn't a complaint, just pointing out the difference between the two drones. I think you're missing the point mate, 99% of people don't fly their drones to the 4km or beyond, it's more about the extra signal strength that this capability gives you when you fly your drone 👍
@@GetBusyLiving Yip, fair point. It was pointed out as a comparison. To clarify my point, 4km vs 10km range is a moot point in just about every country in the world due to legal restrictions which require only flying within line of sight. Which, for a drone this size would be a max of 500m if you have really good eyes, and I think that is good for reviewers to point out rather than give newbies the impression that they can go that far.

Do u think they'll be a price crash on the mini2 when the 3 comes out?
No I don't think so, it will still be a very popular option for people
as a fellow kiwi thanks for all the mini se vids and now im on the train to getting one
Oh you're very welcome mate I glad I could help!
So with 101 in NZ you can not fly further than visual distance, is the Distance on the SE vs the 2 really a major problem?
No not really a major problem, it's just the signal strength in areas of high interference will be better (generally) on the Mini 2.
oh, doesn't the mini 2 also have a zoom on the cam of 4x where the SE cam can not zoom ? which is a huge feature, no ? and Question, is the 31 max flight time refer to just One battery, if flying in the more eco friendly way ? or do you have to have the 3 battery package to get 31 mins ?
No you can get (max) 31m from each battery 👍
Great video, this is the first proper comparison video of the mini se to mini 2 that provides real world applications. But surely the price difference of almost 150% for the mini 2 can’t be worth it for the transmission stability alone?

Thanks for that - I appreciate it! To be honest the signal is not too bad. It is like a lot of places - line of sight is important. Plus if you fly in more urban situations then yes you will get interference. between the two though I find theta line of sight is more important - I still get drop outs on my mini 2 if the line of sight is not great.
Thanks for this detailed comparison. I’ll suck it up for the Mini 2😄
So I wonder if they use the mavic mini 2 motors or the weaker mavic mini motors..
Well they say they use the Mini 2 shell which helps with wind resistance, so i suspect it still has the Mavic Mini motors.
Hi mate. Another great entertaining information video. Mate i want ask what region is Australia under ? 🤔🤔👍
Australia is on the Pre-order / coming soon list @$459
It's definitely on the list of countries that will get it - as per below plus other comments I have had is that it is available for pre-order so they will get it but they don't have stock yet.

Oh wow that's interesting. Could you fly them at exactly the same time and try and test it? Don't crash!
I fly my DJI mini mini se recently I notice that it only fly 50 meter maximum while I set it to 200 meter maximum distance . What’s wrong?
Are you in ATTI mode (not connected to satellites)?
my opinion is that the mini 2 is the perfect drone. For starters and mid people. The SE is just the pro max version. Just like apple. Publicity stand. I prefer the mini 2. (I piloted both.)

Waiting for a Mini 3 hopefully this year
Go ahead and get the Mini 2 mate - you won't regret it!
@@GetBusyLiving
Thanks for your vids :)
I'm afraid of buyer's remorse as there are so many potential improvements for a Mini 3 - some of these I'd think would be fairly realistic:
- collision avoidance
- active track
- 4K 60fps
- improved low-light image
- better wind resistance
- longer max battery life
- higher quality image transfer
- maybe even optical zoom
Will have to see, may try and see if there is going to be anything by the end of the year and if not then probs go Mini 2.
Thank you for info.

I have a 12 year old son that loves to fly drones, he wants to shoot some footage with a drone and post it on youtube for a hobby, he says that the "mini se fly more combo is good" I dont know what that means so can you please check what it is since im not that tech savvy? thanks.
It would be perfect for him.
@@GetBusyLiving awesome, thanks.
The Mini SE is over-priced, by 33%
I have the Mini 2, and believe it is also OVER-PRICED.
Won't be getting another DJI ,
DJI "PUSH" / "SET" the price (too high) , and competitors come "close to" / "just below" with their prices ( which is too high for the quality of their drones)
MJX 16 Pro is A great alternative
Thanks for your review.
Yeah I guess that's the ability you have when your products are in demand - just like Apple right?
Thanks! You're very welcome! 👍
Yes, so true. Here in Malaysia, the mini se is at RM1349 whereas mini 2 at RM1899. It's a very large number for many of us where our country min wage p is only RM1200 per month. As a student, I patiently waiting for the right time and price to buy used drone in the second hand market :')
Can I use mini se battery in mini 2 ?
Yes you sure can!
can i use dji mini 2 battery in dji mini se ?
Yes, however the Mini 2 battery is slightly heavier than the battery that comes with the SE, so technically you won't be under 249g any more.
And if still photography is your bag ... jpg on both, but no raw on the SE.
Yes that's true! 👍
👍🏼
Hi Just Me Droning, thanks for tuning in! 👍
My mini se just sank in the ocean, I retrieved it, but it costs the purchasing price to fix it, I'll buy the mini 2 now
Oh dear! Enjoy the Mini 2!
My SE fly only max for 400meters not 3km like was writed in technical haracteristics
Yeah those stats are always in the very best controlled conditions.
I can't find another mini SE battery. All I see are mavic mini batteries
Where are you looking?
I really want to purchase one but there is no money yet
Hopefully soon!
@@GetBusyLiving Thank you
Both are just as easy to fly and if not mini 2 is easier as its signal is more reliable
Yes totally agree re the signal. I love showing people how easy these things are to fly - I think if more people knew then more would get one - they are scary for alot of people until they actually try it.
@@GetBusyLiving I remember the days when I learnt on a racing drone and only assistance was gyroscope and that's it, my heart was beating so hard then I flew the first dji mavic and I was like wow I feel like I am telling the drone what to do more than actually flying it
@@farkoffcnt Such a great feeling right!? 😊
Great content :-)
Thanks Cobrabird, I really appreciate that! 🙏
@@GetBusyLiving new subscriber here and looking forward for more of your videos. Keep safe sir!
@@Cobrabird Thank you! And the same to you! 😌
@@GetBusyLiving Thanks, BTW, I am thinking of buying Mini 2 this month, do you think the mini 3 will come out soon?
@@Cobrabird No I think you should go ahead and get the Mini 2. The Mini 3 is still speculation at this stage and there are no real indications it is coming anytime soo. anyway, if it does, you would have had a few months at least, of experience with the Mini 2, which will give you enjoyment plus allow you to hone your skills as a pilot. Plus you will be in a better position to know if it is worth upgrading to the Mini 3 or if the mini 2 is fine for your needs. My advice, buy the Mini 2 today.
I personally wouldn't get the mini se, cause it uses a wifi system instead of the ocusync transmission.
That is the main reason I waited for the Mini 2 and didn't get the Mavic Mini.
Nice video again
Oh wow - that is super kind of you to say! Thank you so much! 🙏 I really appreciate your support 🙏
Or dji mini 2s 😜
Haha the 2S - I like that! 👍
Rather than a mini 3, it will likely be a mini 2S, if you follow historical events. Just sayin.
It's highly possible mate, but no-one really knows at this point. To be honest i don't mind what they call it, as long as it has some upgrades I mention here ruclips.net/video/gEE1YTmAw8k/видео.html
@@GetBusyLiving I saw that as well, but personally I’m betting on a 2S, not that it really matters in the end. Still loving the mini 2 with no regrets.
@@RV_There_Yet Good to hear mate!
@@RV_There_Yet you might be right.... I don't see it being THAT much of a major improvement
so confusing 🥴🤣🤣🤣
Oh I'm sorry I confused you - do you have any questions!?
@@GetBusyLiving no no.. its quiet funny when you confused with mavic mini, mini 2 and mini se 🤣
WTF man, why are you compare Mavic Mini? The title is about Mini SE and Mini 2.👎
I cover it all! 🤣
Mini SE Poor signal...lame product..only can fly 500m
😕
Dude, pretty irresponsible to complain about 4km transmission range when you aren't supposed to fly them beyond line of sight legally.
It wasn't a complaint, just pointing out the difference between the two drones. I think you're missing the point mate, 99% of people don't fly their drones to the 4km or beyond, it's more about the extra signal strength that this capability gives you when you fly your drone 👍
@@GetBusyLiving Yip, fair point. It was pointed out as a comparison. To clarify my point, 4km vs 10km range is a moot point in just about every country in the world due to legal restrictions which require only flying within line of sight. Which, for a drone this size would be a max of 500m if you have really good eyes, and I think that is good for reviewers to point out rather than give newbies the impression that they can go that far.
