Which is better for travel?

The Mini 4 Pro. It weighs under 249 g, folds small and avoids registration in many countries, while the Mavic Air 2 is heavier and needs registration in most places.

Which has longer flight time?

The Mini 4 Pro, up to 45 minutes with the Battery Plus versus 34 minutes for the Mavic Air 2.

Is the Mini 4 Pro worth the extra money?

Yes for most shoppers. It adds obstacle avoidance, HDR vertical video, a screen controller and longer flight time. The Air 2 only makes sense at a clear discount.

Does the Mavic Air 2 avoid obstacles?

Only forward and backward. It has no side or upward sensors, so the Mini 4 Pro's omnidirectional avoidance is safer near trees and buildings.

Which is better in low light?

Neither is strong. Both use small sensors, so shoot near sunset or use the Mini 4 Pro's HDR mode to hold detail.
