# DJI Neo – Ultra‑Portable Creator Drone
The DJI Neo is designed for effortless airborne capture — weighing just 135 g, it can take off and land from your palm, making it extremely portable and easy to carry.
With a take‑off weight of approximately 135 grams, the Neo falls under drone class C0 in many jurisdictions, which can simplify regulatory requirements in some regions. Its compact dimensions (130 × 157 × 48.5 mm) further enhance its portability.
The onboard camera uses a 1/2‑inch CMOS sensor, shooting up to 12 MP still photos and 4K/30fps video (4:3 format) or 4 K/30fps in 16:9 with EIS active. Ultra‑stabilisation features such as RockSteady and HorizonBalancing keep footage smooth even while following subjects or on the move.
The drone supports subject tracking (SmartTracking, DirectionTrack) so it can follow you or another subject automatically. It also includes six QuickShot modes (Dronie, Circle, Rocket, Helix, Spotlight, Boomerang) for dynamic cinematic shots with minimal effort.
Although compact, the drone is built with full‑coverage propeller guards, making indoor or near‑people flying safer. Flight time is up to ≈ 18 minutes under ideal conditions (17 minutes when guards are fitted) and max horizontal speed up to 16 m/s in manual mode. Transmission range (in interference‑free conditions) reaches up to 10 km under FCC standard (6 km CE) using OcuSync 4.
If you’re a vlogger, traveller, creator seeking a drone that is super portable, easy to launch, and captures 4K video with subject tracking — the DJI Neo is a compelling choice. It fits in a small backpack, be used with minimal setup (even palm take‑off), and delivers decent image quality and creative modes for fun aerial capture.
