DJI Action 2 Review | Trusted Reviews

The Action 2 doesn't feel like an action cam in GoPro's shadow, or one made in the GoPro mould – and for that DJI should be commended.

Compact size ; Clever magnetic modular design ; Extra wide field of view ; Effective horizon levelling EIS

Prone to overheating ; Poor performance in low light ; Add-on modules not waterproof

The DJI Action 2’s video performance may be respectable rather than groundbreaking, but its pioneering magnetic mounting and mod system not only works brilliantly – it also serves to set it apart from all its rivals in the action cam market. This is a...

DJI Action 2 review

Anything but a GoPro knock-off – but is that a good thing?

Premium, smart modular design ; Smaller than rival action cams ; Class-leading horizon leveling ; Wider FOV than Hero 10 Black ; Punchy AMOLED display

Overheating limits clip length ; Muted default color profile ; Uninspiring low-light performance ; Extra modules aren’t waterproof ; No external audio source recording

DJI Action 2 initial review: King of the mods

DJI is taken a very different approach with its new Action camera

Solid build ; Magnets are strong and secure ; Very compact camera unit ; 4K video up to 120fps

No expandable storage without a module ; Gets quite warm when recording 4K ; Touchscreen interface is fiddly

DJI's Action 2 has taken things in a different direction compared to its first action camera. It's nothing like a GoPro and - instead - introduces a premium metal build and a clevel modular design. It's not cheap though, and the fact you have to snap...

Goondu review: DJI Action 2 innovates but is still lacking in some areas - Techgoondu

The DJI Action 2 scores high on versatility in various outdoor scenarios though its low-light image quality can be improved.

DJI Action 2 Review

Tiny, go-anywhere form factor ; Magnetic mount and snap-on accessories ; Effective digital stabilization ; Up to 4K120 video ; 12MP photos ; Waterproof to 33 feet ; Works as a webcam

Front screen option pushes price high ; Overheating is a concern ; No card slot or charging port on main camera module ; Front screen and battery aren't waterproof

The DJI Action 2 reimagines the action camera in a modular form factor with support for magnetic mounts. It's innovative, but falls a little shy of dethroning GoPro.

DJI Action 2 Review

The DJI Action 2 is an action camera that innovates with its modular design to give GoPro a run for its money.

Class-leading portability and style ; Smart accessories add functionality ; Stable app experience

Clarity falls behind GoPro Hero10 Black ; Not waterproof with modular battery ; Overheats with high-resolution filming

The DJI Action 2 is a strikingly small, rich-looking action camera whose design is unmatched when it comes to portability and premium styling. While it can't beat the GoPro Hero10 Black's video quality or utility, it's nevertheless a fantastic addition...
