Many streamers and YouTubers use small mics attached to their clothes for better audio, and a black mic looks out of place in most colorful outfits. DJI wants to change that with its Mic Mini 2.
Hot on the heels of the Osmo Pocket 4 launch, the company has launched the Mic Mini 2, a follow-up to the original Mic Mini that launched in November 2024. The big headline? You can now customize the look of your microphone with swappable magnetic covers.
The covers come in obsidian black and glaze white right out of the box, with 12 more colorful options sold separately. Whether you want your mic to pop or disappear into your jacket, the choice is yours.
What’s actually new on the Mic Mini 2?
Beyond the colors, DJI has added three voice tone presets: Regular, Rich, and Bright. These let you tweak how your voice sounds without post-production, which is a genuinely useful addition for solo creators.
The rotatable magnetic clip is also new, allowing you to aim the mic toward the sound source, whether you are wearing it upright, sideways, or inverted.
The core audio specs are unchanged, however. You get the same 48kHz, 24-bit recording, automatic limiting, two-level noise cancellation, and a similar 11.5-hour battery life on the transmitter.
The wireless range still tops out at just over 1,312 feet, and there is still no on-mic redundant recording. That said, DJI has already teased a Mic Mini 2S with internal recording and support for up to four transmitters, coming later this summer.
Is the Mic Mini 2 worth buying?
If you already have the original Mic Mini and it’s working well, it’s not an instant upgrade. That said, the launch price is about 40% less than the original Mic Mini, making it tempting for buyers.
The DJI Mic Mini 2 starts at €59 for a single transmitter and mobile receiver bundle, while the two-transmitter camera kit will run you €99.
One unfortunate catch: like the Osmo Pocket 4, DJI has no plans to bring the Mic Mini 2 to the US due to its FCC certification status. If you are outside the US, it is available now and well worth considering.
