DJI Phantom 4 vs Mavic: which should I buy?

Choose the DJI Phantom 4 for its larger, stable camera platform and classic flight feel; pick a Mavic if you want a compact folding drone that travels far more easily. The Phantom is bulkier but rugged, while Mavics win on portability and newer features. For travel most buyers prefer a Mavic. Compare both across sellers on shopfox.

Does the DJI Phantom 4 have obstacle avoidance?

Yes, the DJI Phantom 4 has forward and downward obstacle sensing, while the Phantom 4 Pro adds rear and side sensors for near five-direction protection. This made it one of the safer drones of its era. It lacks the omnidirectional systems of newer models. For confident flying the Phantom 4 Pro's expanded obstacle avoidance is the version to seek.

How long does the DJI Phantom 4 fly?

The DJI Phantom 4 flies about 28 minutes on a full charge, with the Phantom 4 Pro rated around 30 minutes. Real-world flight with wind and 4K recording runs a little shorter. Its 5870mAh battery is large but aging on used units. Because it is discontinued, check battery health and compare Phantom 4 offers across sellers on shopfox.
