High-End Drone Filming & Stock Footage 4K+
Safety also sees a major upgrade. The drone features omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, with wide-angle vision sensors offering accurate detection from all directions. This makes the NEO 2 significantly safer for beginners and efficient for advanced pilots flying through tighter spaces such as alleys, forests, or architectural structures.
DJI’s intelligent modes remain strong: ActiveTrack, FocusTrack, QuickShots, and Smart Follow 2.0 perform smoothly, making automated shots simple without sacrificing dynamic movement.
Battery life averages 23–26 minutes of real-world flying, depending on wind and recording settings. While not class-leading, it provides enough endurance for travel shoots, fast location scouting, and compact productions.
User Opinions
Global user reviews highlight the NEO 2 as a reliable, well-balanced drone ideal for everyday creators. Pilots appreciate the improved stability and wind resistance, stating that it performs confidently in conditions where smaller drones struggle. Many note that the imaging quality is excellent for its size, delivering crisp photos and natural colors.
Users consistently praise the omnidirectional obstacle detection, saying it makes flying around trees, fences, and rooftops more comfortable and dramatically increases safety for newer pilots.
On the downside, many mention that battery life is “good but not great,” and some users report moderate noise in low-light video footage. A few also note that while 4K/60 looks fantastic, additional frame-rate flexibility would make it even more appealing for cinematic shooters.
Overall sentiment is strongly positive: “a perfect daily drone”, “stable and trustworthy”, and “ideal for travel content and social media creators who need high quality without complexity.”
