DJI updates the Mini 2 with 4K video and more. The DJI Mini 2 is the upgrade creators have been waiting for. The Mini was launched in October 2019, and notably, the consumer drone weighed only 249 grams, which is significant because it allows users to fly the drone without needing to register with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as it falls below the weight of what's considered to be a commercial drone (250 grams).
