Please see my detailed review of DJI Mavic Pro here: www.ifanr.com/7... Please see update information about the softer image of Mavic Pro: • Mavic Pro: the Myth of...
Very informative, odd that the P4 looks sharper during the day but the Mavic is sharper at night. Either way, it's very impressive how well the Mavic performs given the size/weight reduction.
Best review so far especially with the honesty in tracking! So many other videos test tracking whilst on foot which for the most part the Mavic wont be doing. Cant wait to get ours soon to heighten the standard of our videos!

Very good review dude, thank you. Please show more of the Active Track and Smart feature performance. Seen every review and example of the Mavic I can find, yours is really one of the best. Thanks for taking the time. SHOW US MORE!
Can you make the tracking more aggressive so it can track faster moving objects? Any settings for that? I wonder if it can track flying objects? How about objects not just below but above with the sky in the background. Thanks. BTW, best review video.
So everyone blames the first reviewer, not fo focus with the mavic. But we see now, the P4 has definitly a much better picture quality in daylight. I don't like the picture of the mavic. But would like to see if you get a P4 like picture with sharpening in post? But the quality at night is incredible with the mavic. Hadn't expect that big increase in quality! :)
Thank you for the test ! Refreshing to see a review and not "I am a poser and here is my new toy" video ! The sharpness of the Mavic at night time is astonishing, it cannot be the optics so i bet it has lower noise and thus less agressive denoising, do you agree ? Would it be possible to do a comparison at low light (no matter can be indoor) with manual settings to step up the brightnedd +3 EV to see the noise difference and remaining dynamic range of Mavic vs. P4 ? Thanks anyways ! Nils
Great review definitely I was sold when I saw the presentation and put my order on the 1st of oct because there was a huge congestion on their online store for several days and I waited for it to be with less congestion I hope people start getting their drones the following weeks ahead. Mine is staying pending for shipping so I hope my order change status and show me what carrier is it leaving since it says pending for shipping
we all are and DJI is not being cool about giving you a specific date, I think its because they don't have manufacture enough for the orders they were expecting.
Hey, how much weight can the Mavic hold? The p4 is rated at around 2lbs, but how about the new Dji drone? Please do a video, and thanks for this comparison!
looks like Hong Kong... so I guessing DJI employee.. great review in my oppinion.. the clarity on the zoom is so much better then the P4 I had a P3A so I am convinced..
Hi odinblog, I have a question for your review. The field of view comparison, you first show the Mavic, then the P4, and then both together. The Mavic shot at 1:11 you see the boat to the left and 1 tall building to the right. The P4 shot at 1:15, you see the boat to the left and 2 tall buildings to the right. In the comparison, at 1:21 you show the P4 image, with the Mavic shot on top with at black square - as if the P4 is not much wider than Mavic. My question is : Are the 2 separate shots, ( 1:11 and 1:15 ) shot from the same location/distance? For me it seems like the P4 is much wider, than it shows in the comparison shot. The comparison shot at 1:20 doesn't seem legit. Thanks.
You are right. when i finish my work, I found the FOV comparison did not accurate enough because I've tried to locate the starting point base on the swimming pool. the accurate FOV comparison is here: ifanr-cdn.b0.upaiyun.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/dji-mavic-fov.jpg
the most informated review withount any words! By the way have you tried the distance? how sharp is the turns compare to p4 in sport mode? Does it comes with usb-C cable for the phone? Thanks you!
-By the way have you tried the distance? Yes, distance is similar to P4. I have tried 2km flight at a mid-interference (P3: 2km) area, and 4.4km (RTH because of insufficient battery)(P3: 6km) flight at a low-interference area. -how sharp is the turns compare to p4 in sport mode? Same -Does it comes with usb-C cable for the phone? Yes, there is a normal (the big one) USB port behind the remote and you may plug your USB-C cable there.
CAN YOU USE THE MAVIC AS A HANDHELD CAMERA? Yes and no. Using the wifi setting, you can hold your phone in one hand and the Mavic in the other to shoot video on the ground, but the arms in the back of the drone need to be folded out. If you don’t fold them out, they will interfere with the compass, which messes up the gimbal heading. from myfirstdrone.com/mavic/ultimate-dji-mavic-pro-faq-every-question-answered/

This is better than just repeating the same things 20 other reviewers have already said. And none of the others have done such a thorough comparison. This is great! I especially love the field of view comparison. The only thing missing is a test to see if sharpening in post can bring the sharpness of the Mavic closer to the P4.

mavic camera at night is to die for. i'm getting this as soon as i can.
I saw 100 review
This review is
best of best!
thank you
so am I. best review on RUclips!
This is the kind of review everyone is waiting for! Thx
Thank you
To me Phantom 4 seems a bit oversharpened, you can clearly see this in the 7xdigital zoom
agree
I agree as well. I always turned down the sharpening on my P3P and did the sharpening in post.
*DJI is having an amazing deal for the DJI Mavic Pro:* click.dji.com/AGQRq67ty8SgMHpQnOWu?pm=link&as=0004
Finally! Hand held footage. Good comparisons. Thank you.
but a little bit disappointed about the footage of handheld, 😂
***** Yeah, but at least you can.
if you go on 120 fps, in slow motion, i think will look pretty nice:D
Very good review. Easy to understand and to the point!
A very interesting comparison. The video quality of the P4 at daylight is much crisper but at night surprisingly the mavic is much better.

Straightforward and precise. Awesome review and comparison!

2:36 is the demo of active tracking
love that mavic pro night
Just a great review, thank you for this.
I ordered mine a month ago. Hopefully, Mavic will arrive soon!
Thanks for the great review! It's the best overall comparison so far. It would be nice to see a little bit more of video comparison though.
thanks
at night Mavic seems better, but with sun.... Mavic is bad compared to phantom 4....a sight worse
One of the best tech review. Thank you!
Thank you
I want the mavic pro because of its size and video quality. Also you can use it as a handheld gimbal still folded up
great review.can't wait to receive my order !!!
thank you. I have ordered one, too.
the rare, you already have them both??
Thanks I was wondering if the Mavic could be used as a handheld given it's small size.
Wonderful comparison. A+
the BEST review so far:) Good job!
AMAZING comparison! Thank you!!
Excellent review! Thank you!
thank you
thanks for the comparison !
Just like iPhonedo's review, Mavic seems to be significantly better at low light/night shots than P4
Can you make the tracking more aggressive so it can track faster moving objects? Any settings for that? I wonder if it can track flying objects? How about objects not just below but above with the sky in the background. Thanks. BTW, best review video.

But the quality at night is incredible with the mavic. Hadn't expect that big increase in quality! :)
Really good review, I liked how you used the phantom 4 as something to compare to, but didn't make the whole video about the comparison. Well done
Thank you for the test !
Refreshing to see a review and not "I am a poser and here is my new toy" video !
The sharpness of the Mavic at night time is astonishing, it cannot be the optics so i bet it has lower noise and thus less agressive denoising, do you agree ?
Would it be possible to do a comparison at low light (no matter can be indoor) with manual settings to step up the brightnedd +3 EV to see the noise difference and remaining dynamic range of Mavic vs. P4 ?
Thanks anyways !
Nils
Mavic is F2.2 but Phantom 4 is F2.8, that why Mavic is absolutely better than Phantom in low light situation.
the best comparison I've. +1 abo. may I ask: for what would you go? p4p or mavic pro?
Great review definitely I was sold when I saw the presentation and put my order on the 1st of oct because there was a huge congestion on their online store for several days and I waited for it to be with less congestion I hope people start getting their drones the following weeks ahead. Mine is staying pending for shipping so I hope my order change status and show me what carrier is it leaving since it says pending for shipping
I'm waiting for its shippment, too.
we all are and DJI is not being cool about giving you a specific date, I think its because they don't have manufacture enough for the orders they were expecting.
ifanr's review, professional!
thanks
Great review!!
Best review i've seen yet!
Thank you
can't decide I like phantom 4 footage but at night I like the mavic pro
Pretty awesome review to see the comparisons. Guys, it looks as though we have a winner here. #MavicMagic
thank you
Great work guys !
thanks
Great review
Can u tell us what setup did u use at night for both Drones? Thanks!

I'm thinking about getting a drone Which one should I get
The Best!!!

thanks
Excellent review!
Thank you
Hey, how much weight can the Mavic hold? The p4 is rated at around 2lbs, but how about the new Dji drone? Please do a video, and thanks for this comparison!
nice music
looks like Hong Kong...
so I guessing DJI employee..
great review in my oppinion..
the clarity on the zoom is so much better then the P4
I had a P3A so I am convinced..
I come from a chinese tech media.
Great review thanks!
thanks
its all ok thanks
Thank you for the excellent review
You are welcome.

Thank you.
odinblog You should clarify this in the video description at least. The comparison shown in the video will mislead lots of people.
Not exactly the same time to prevent the drone from interference, and mostly I flew Mavic first and P4 after 15-30 mins.
Nights video DJI Mavic Pro - better, daylights - Phantom 4.
I loved u guys office!! Where is it located? I live in HK as well
professional!
on the minute 1:11 how is the music name? or the style?
Amazing Review!
Can you do one of Mavic vs Spark please?
the most informated review withount any words!
By the way have you tried the distance?
how sharp is the turns compare to p4 in sport mode?
Does it comes with usb-C cable for the phone?
Thanks you!
-By the way have you tried the distance?
Yes, distance is similar to P4. I have tried 2km flight at a mid-interference (P3: 2km) area, and 4.4km (RTH because of insufficient battery)(P3: 6km) flight at a low-interference area.

Yes, there is a normal (the big one) USB port behind the remote and you may plug your USB-C cable there.
Thanks! and one more question, in there any difference you can noticed in video quality transfer to your device on distance?
mylorik Not so much unless you are using 1080p streaming. If the signal is bad, it will change it to 720p automatically.
the night shots with the mavic, were they graded or not.?
Great review, thanks! One Q please: which video software did you use to cut this video? Looks nice.
Final Cut Pro X
thank you, damn I got windows....
Great review, I saw so many reviews. But they always forget te focus on the mavic, so it looks that the mavic is bad.
But with this review, wow.
Shame DJI delete anyones comments they dont like from their pages. They dont seem to like honesty!
Well done and thank you for this review
thank you
How much is it
nobody has tested the lag of direct camera in any video on youtube !!!!
Will you also do a comparison test of the Intelligent Flight features?
I've tested the ActiveTrack function here, thanks.
Pretty awesome review, very technical but the music is a bit cheesy, very boring.
What the name of the song at 1:11? Thanks
as a handheld gimbal you are holding it folded? can you turn it on while folded? can we see a video of it?
CAN YOU USE THE MAVIC AS A HANDHELD CAMERA?
Yes and no. Using the wifi setting, you can hold your phone in one hand and the Mavic in the other to shoot video on the ground, but the arms in the back of the drone need to be folded out. If you don’t fold them out, they will interfere with the compass, which messes up the gimbal heading.

myfirstdrone.com/mavic/ultimate-dji-mavic-pro-faq-every-question-answered/
The arms have no sensor and you can turn on, or disarm your Mavic (take your own risk 😂) .... even I don't recommend to disarm.
music ?
Can I use my Ipad mini with the Mavic controler ?
yes, you connect it to the usb on the remote
And looks like I'm the second comment to my initial first. I was SOOOOOO close!!! :-P
which camera settings have u used to capture the videos? from 1.12? is it possible to make it Sharper before post production? thank you!!
all default settings. I'm not sure either it is possible to make is sharper b4 post production but I will test it later on.
are there any colour grading or video shaping for both drone?
no
Does the Camera/Gimbal function with the arms folded? thanks for the video
Yes, it does work.

Hi, please let me know if it is possible to use FPV goggles with mavic pro. I've a fatshark dominator V3. Tks
I did tried but Fatshark is incompatible with Mavic.
to me the phantoms camera is more wide, but looks bad to the mavic.
FL Movie Production Yup your right. The phantom has a larger FOV.
Bravo 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼👈🏻
thank you
Phantom
I got the phantom 1 , phantom 2, phantom 3, phantom 4 pro.inspire 1 and 2 , i got the mavic pro, mavic air, sparky, mavic 2 😎
So which one is the best?
Mavic Pro
The p4 still much better anyway.
not really good try
广州黄埔村啊
哦,那是客村,哈 😂
Mavic wins
Mavic pro eat the phantom 👊🏼
wtf why mavic is better at night conditions? xD
commentary? not much of a "review" you just showed samples
myusernameisthisduh More like comparison.
This is better than just repeating the same things 20 other reviewers have already said. And none of the others have done such a thorough comparison. This is great! I especially love the field of view comparison. The only thing missing is a test to see if sharpening in post can bring the sharpness of the Mavic closer to the P4.
Josh Levinson I agree
thank god for mute
Best review so far especially with the honesty in tracking! So many other videos test tracking whilst on foot which for the most part the Mavic wont be doing.
Cant wait to get ours soon to heighten the standard of our videos!
