If I buy the app now, will I get Mini 2 and SE support in the future? Litchi is on sale at app store now for $20.99.

People around you may have weaken immune system (or live with one). Wear a mask in indoor settings if you have cold symptoms.

Probably but no one really know. 4.16 API for iOS has not confirmed yet. Thx for reminder, the app is on sale at Playstore too for $20.

Think twice before buying and keeping it. The novelty of flying a drone wears off very quickly. The drone will spend most of the year sitting in a drawer.

The main reason I'm holding off from the mini SE is because of the range issues I saw in the reviews. Especially if you're around buildings etc... Enhanced wifi just wont cut it.

if you fly it in the city then you must get occusync. I tried to fly the SE from my street 3 streets over and got signal interference warnings non-stop and even lost the connection for a couple of minutes. Also the jerky video will drive you insane when the signal is week on the SE.

Actually the drone is super fun to fly too.

It is missing "Follow me" which is is a big thing to be missing, so make sure you understand what that means before you buy it.

I managed to crash my mini2 within 3 weeks - DJI repair in Ontario is NOT user friendly. Be warned.

Just a head up with everyone with a Pixel 6/6Pro, the DJI app does not work with with the new Pixel phones.
It does not show a live view of the camera feed, just a black screen.
They are aware of the issue, but no fix yet.

Not sure if its related or not, i had similar issue with my sony xperia phone, replacing the micro sd fixed the issue for me.

Saw some reports online that the next DJI Mini will be called the 2S, not the 3. Also supposedly coming out in late winter/early spring. Was tempted to buy the Mini 2, but decided to wait until news comes out on the next one.

Don’t know why people wasting money on DJI drones; it’s about to become like Huawei in North America as the USA has placed DJI on their Entity list. American companies and investors are forbidden to provide tech, funding or do any business with DJI.

Is it worth buying now? Or better to wait for the new version?

Also, is the best price for this drone?

Since Google is not in the mainland Chinese market, I'm guessing they don't sell Pixels at all in China and DJI probably cares very little about supporting the Pixel phones.
