The cons are forgiven for the size, the bonus is incredible mobility and the ability to quickly launch and land, plus the remote control is more convenient than the Mavic Pro remote control. If there was a choice now, to take a Mavic Pro or a mini 2, I would take a mini. Since now, when there is a choice - to launch a mavic or mini, I often choose mini. And it's easier to carry around with you. PS. Mavic is almost abandoned. There have never been situations where it would make sense to lift it instead of a mini. When the weather is a concern for the mini, the mavic is also scary to lift.
