Is this the worst Mini 2 review ever?

Not only has it taken Wired two whole months to knock up a copy-paste review, it’s not been fact-checked at all. I usually expect a lot better from them!

AFAIK, the 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor is not “new” at all, it’s exactly the same component as the Mavic Mini just with extra modes firmware unlocked.

The controller is not “unchanged from the previous model”. It’s completely different in form factor and appearance and definitely can’t be described as “light” being 60% heavier than the previous one and weighing 2.5x the (sans battery) drone itself!

They don’t mention the two ground sensors and also manage to include two stock photos of the Mini 1 (even including the wrong controller).

Pathetic!
