DJI has had a fantastic year so far, and we haven't reached the end yet.

The first drone I ever reviewed here at Tom's Guide was the Neo, so it holds a special place in my heart... which it now has to share with the Neo 2, simply because the second-gen drone is incredible. I've spent the last couple of weeks putting the Neo 2 through a battery of tests, and comparing it to its predecessor — and there's a clear winner.
