What’s our conclusion?

DJI would not have made the second version worse than their first version!…..would they?

Not a chance!  The only reason why you’d choose the Mini 1 over the Mini 2 is if you needed to save a few bucks! Yes. The Mini 1 is cheaper now.  That’s about it!  The Mini 2 allows you to fly more comfortably, for longer, with better quality, and faster with the option of great Intelligent Flight modes!  It’s a great drone that you can fly ALMOST anywhere.  Just don’t be an idiot!
