DJI officially unveiled the DJI Neo 2, the new version of its popular handheld drone platform, in Taiwan today. The device stands out with its larger camera sensor, increased battery life, and enhanced security features.
Camera and security innovations introduced with the DJI Neo 2
The most significant improvement in the DJI Neo 2 lies in its imaging system. The drone is equipped with a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor, significantly larger than the 1/2.3-inch sensor in the original Neo. This new sensor significantly improves low-light performance and overall image quality.
Furthermore, the upgraded camera can now capture 4K video at 60 frames per second (60fps), double the 30fps limit of the original model. Content creators gain professional color editing capabilities thanks to 10-bit HDR support and a D-Log M color profile.
On the security front, omnidirectional front-facing sensors, upward and downward-facing cameras, and Time of Flight (ToF) infrared LiDAR sensors have been added. These sensors provide much more accurate obstacle detection than standard vision sensors, especially in low light.
In addition, the battery capacity has been increased by 12 percent to 1606 mAh. This increase increases flight time to 19 minutes. Weighing just 135 grams, the drone remains exempt from registration requirements in most regions.
Another interesting feature of the DJI Neo 2 is its removable OcuSync 4.0 receiver module. Without this module, the drone connects to smartphones via WiFi, providing a range of 50 meters. With the receiver attached, the range extends to 10 kilometers and is compatible with the DJI Goggles N3 or RC-N3 controllers.
The DJI Neo 2 was initially released in the Asian market. According to leaked information, the European launch is scheduled for November 13, 2025. However, due to increased regulations and restrictions in the US, it remains unclear whether the drone will be available in the US.
