What’s special about DJI’s new mini drone?

The popular drone maker just announced the Neo 2 model in its home market of China. This release also arrives just ahead of the DJI Neo 2’s global release, which is tipped for November 13. The Neo 2 is slightly larger and heavier than the original Neo, measuring 151 grams in weight (160 grams with the Digital Video Transmission Module attachment).
