DJI Neo 2

DJI’s latest mini drone, Neo 2, has just launched globally, and it’s already stealing attention for what it can do without a remote. Weighing only 151 grams, the new entrant in the Neo drone lineup is light enough to toss into a backpack but smart enough to take off from your palm, follow you using gestures or voice commands, and then land back on your hand when you’re done. It’s the ultimate pocket-sized flying camera built for travelers, families, and first-time drone users who want cinematic footage without fumbling with joysticks.

DJI’s new Neo 2 drone — the one designed to make flying as easy as taking a selfie — is officially going global on November 13, according to a teaser now live across the company’s international social media channels.

DJI’s latest Fly app update (v1.19.0) has arrived, and it’s bringing plenty of fresh smarts, especially for the company’s newest mini drone, the DJI Neo 2. The update not only enables full compatibility with the Neo 2 but also introduces a batch of intelligent flight features that make piloting easier, smoother, and a lot more fun.

For years, one thing has stopped most people from ever buying a drone: fear of crashing it. No one wants to see a shiny new gadget nosedive into a tree seconds after takeoff. DJI’s new Neo 2 aims to erase that fear completely. And in doing so, it might just become the first drone anyone can confidently fly.
