I’ve been testing the DJI Neo 2 and it improves on its predecessor in every way — this is the best budget drone you can buy

A dark gray DJI Neo 2 camera drone.

DJI continues to set new standards with every drone it releases, and the latest to join that lineup is the DJI Neo 2, successor to the one-year-old Neo. When I reviewed the Neo, I absolutely adored the little drone that could, and I have been flying it for more than a year now. I didn’t think DJI could pack even more cutting-edge technology into such a tiny drone, and yet it did.

The Neo 2 improves on its predecessor in nearly every way. It more-than-doubles the internal storage to 49GB, introduces 4K/60fps video, a two-axis mechanical gimbal, omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, gesture control, stronger wind resistance, and more. It retains the Neo’s best features, such as the impressive tracking, and delivers the quintessential flying experience for beginner pilots on a budget.
