We’re not sure on a specific release date yet but Xiaomi has confirmed that there will be two models of the Mi Drone. One which is just 1080p for 2,499 Yen ($380/£259) while the 4K model is 2,999 Yen ($456/£310).
Most Xiaomi products don't go on sale straight away so we expect it to be available for pre-order soon and possibly get a June release date. That's our prediction but stay tuned for the official details.
Xiaomi Mi Drone specs and features
As expected, the Mi Drone is a quad-copter so has four propellers at the end of arms. Xiaomi says the design is inspired by the dragonfly.
One of key features of the Mi Drone is the camera which is 360 degree and sits underneath the main body like most rivals. Xiaomi has confirmed that the camera is using a 12Mp Sony sensor, Ambarella image processor and that the drone supports 4K video recording 3840x2160 and you can shoot in RAW and also 1080p at 60fps. See below for sample photos.
You’ll control the Mi Drone with a new controller which looks like the existing Mi Bluetooth controller. You’ll need to attach a smartphone to get a video feed from the camera. Based on pictures Xiaomi has posted, the Mi Drone can circle round an object, fly directly to a certain point or even follow the path of a road.
Features of the Mi Drone, other than photo and video, include automatic takeoff and landing. Xiaomi says the drone will automatically stop if you fly it into a restricted area. Using GPS, the Mi Drone will automatically fly back to where it took off if it gets out of range.
