A powerful flying camera anyone can take anywhere

Editors' note: DJI is currently experiencing manufacturing and shipping delays for the Mavic Pro. The current estimated shipping time is six to eight weeks from placing an order.

There have been several kinder, gentler camera drones this year -- from the large PowerVision PowerEgg to the compact Yuneec Breeze -- but the DJI Mavic Pro is the only one to combine high performance, lots of automated flight modes and obstacle avoidance in an ultracompact body. Add in DJI's assortment of safety and ease-of-use features and you've got a drone that anyone can take anywhere.

One of the few complaints I've had about the company's Phantom models is that they aren't particularly travel friendly, mainly due to the camera and gimbal position and the fixed landing gear. The Mavic doesn't have these issues and its propeller arms and the props themselves fold up so there's no need to remove them.

The smaller size -- of both the drone and its controller -- and decidedly un-Phantom looks make it more approachable and less obtrusive. The thing is, you still get nearly the same performance as you would from the company's top-of-the-line Phantom 4. It'll cost you about the same, too: $1,000 in the US, AU$1,700 in Australia and £1,100 in the UK.

The Phantom 4 has a higher maximum speed and can withstand stronger winds, and its camera has a wider field of view. The Mavic Pro is basically better in every other way, though. For example, its new OcuSync encrypted transmission system, gives you control up to 4.3 miles (7 km) away and streams video at 1080p. The Phantom 4 has a max range of 3.1 miles (5 km) and streams at 720p.

Also, while it might not have the power to cut through really strong winds (DJI says it can handle winds up to 19-24 mph or 29-38 kph), it was able to keep the camera stable and fly steady in 10-15 mph winds and still get between 22-25 minutes of flight time before it landed itself. It does wa rn you when the winds are too strong for its motors, too.

Like the drone itself, the controller is very small, but still has a monochrome screen for important flight data and physical camera controls. Want to see what you're shooting? You can connect a phone and mount it just below the control sticks. Getting your phone in the mount is a bit of a pain and requires you to remove any case you might have on it, but it does mean your phone isn't blocking your view of the controls.

Joshua Goldman/CNET

DJI added a switch to change from RC to a Wi-Fi mode, so you can quickly launch and control the Mavic with only your phone at distances up to 80 meters (262 feet) with a top speed of 4 meters per second (13 feet per second). It's nice to have for things like quick selfies, but using the actual controller is better.

Technical comparison from Honor 8 single and dual-camera imaging

Honor is known for delivering the best quality standards when it comes to affordable products. Over the years since it's inception, we have seen the company grow in the sense of establishing a connection with its user base. It's about offer innovation in the hands of consumers at a groundbreaking price. This time around for their latest flagship handset, the company might have priced it little higher than what was expected by the industry experts, but there is a valid reasoning that company thinks it's users would understand.

It is the look, feel, and performance of their Honor 8 handset which is so much fantastic that it's all worth it. You might have read our detailed review of the handset couple of weeks back when the company launched the handset in the country. Now today we are talking in detail about the camera technology this new Honor handset uses to challenge even the best of the smartphone cameras that have come out this year. Below you can read what the dual camera setup is and how does it work, it's all explained in the simplest manner we could have.

Hardware

As you know by now that Honor 8 comes with a dual camera setup, the company being the first to introduced the dual camera setup on their Honor 6 Plus had the required expertise to improvise and modify camera output. And that is what company has done on their Honor 8. Taking some queues from Huawei P9, which is their parent company's smartphone. The latest flagship from the young mobile brand has outdone many camera imaging setups currently available in the market.

Out of two lenses, one allows for rich color output, while other offers monochrome feature, which is said to offer more light and increased sharpness to the output. Using best of both world's Honor 8 manages crisper and more detailed photos that are possible. The Monochrome setup means that second lens lacks bayer filter which is used in a camera to produce color images. This enables the monochrome lens to capture three times more light and thus helping in creating better outputs in low-light photography. On top of relying on capturing more light, the secondary B&W sensor is also helpful in playing with depth of field. Thus offering to create impressive bokeh effect outputs.

Software

As you launch the camera app, you can swipe to the left or right to view options if you don't want to just, point and shoot. When you swipe towards left it will bring up the menu where you can adjust the size of the image, turn on location services, add grid layout, etc. While talking about accessing Auto, Pro, HDR and Panorama, you can switch between them quickly. The camera is incredibly easy to operate, even with little efforts you can expect impressive outputs.

Such ease and quality earlier only hoped on expensive camera setups, but Honor has tried to bring it to their smartphone, and I would tell you that they have most certainly succeeded in doing so. Another interesting thing about the software is that the Pro setting is quite intuitive, once you start playing and understanding (if not already) with aperture, focus and white balance, then you will definitely enjoy having this phone with you on every step of your life.

Verdict

Honor has tried to achieve what many smartphone brands are trying to do for the past couple of years. And why we believe that this young brand has achieved the feat of offering greatest camera setup under an ideal pricing. The reason can be seen in the outputs which you can see in the gallery above as well as in our detailed review. Once you take the handset in your hand for a spin, then you will realize how easy it is to capture amazing shots when you have such a beautiful camera setup in your hands.

That is the main difference between a single and a dual camera imaging setup; you get to have so much depth of field and details within one shot. It can be said about moments in life. You may never know when the precious moments arrive, and when they arrive wouldn't you like to be enabled with the best camera in your hands. Yes, you do!
