DJI Mic Mini 2 Now on Sale Globally With Ten Magnetic Cover Colors Starting at €33

DJI launched the DJI Mic Mini 2 worldwide on April 28, 2026, delivering the second generation of its entry-level wireless microphone system with interchangeable magnetic front covers, faster transmitter charging, and vocal tone presets borrowed from the DJI Mic 3. Five configurations go on sale today starting at €33 for a standalone transmitter, with the top-tier bundle landing at €89 in Europe and £89 in the UK. The Mic Mini 2 is not launching in the United States, where it has not yet received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification.

As DroneXL reported when DJI posted its “More Than Sound” teaser two weeks ago, the Mic Mini 2 targets content creators who want a capable wireless audio system without stepping up to the Mic 3. The new model keeps the same 48 kHz 24-bit audio, 11.5-hour transmitter battery life, and compact clip-on form factor as the original DJI Mic Mini that launched in November 2024.

New Design and Audio Features

The most visible change is the magnetic front cover system. Every Mic Mini 2 transmitter ships with an Obsidian Black and a Glaze White cover as standard. The top-tier bundle includes all ten colors. DJI also sells the covers separately, including a limited Time Series set designed by illustrator Victo Ngai in four abstract patterns: Dawn, Surge, Blaze, and Glimmer, priced at around $45 for a set.

The transmitter body changed from the original’s faceted shape to a flatter profile to accommodate the magnetic system. Weight increased slightly from 10g to 11g. DJI has redesigned the clip to rotate, allowing the mic to point toward the sound source whether worn upright, inverted, or on the side.

On the audio side, the Mic Mini 2 adds three vocal tone presets: Regular, Rich, and Bright. These arrived with the Mic 3 in August 2025 and are now filtering down to the entry-level line. In independent testing by Engadget, the differences between the presets were subtle in practice. The system also includes two-level active noise cancellation (Basic and Strong) and automatic anti-clipping, carried over from the original.

Transmitter charging time dropped from 90 minutes to 70 minutes. Receiver battery life holds at 10.5 hours, and the charging case extends total runtime to 48 hours. Range is 400 meters (1,312 feet) with the standard receiver and 300 meters (984 feet) with the mobile receiver.

The Mic Mini 2 is compatible with DJI’s OsmoAudio ecosystem, connecting wirelessly without a receiver to the DJI Osmo Action 6, Osmo 360, and Osmo Pocket 4. Transmitters also work with the original Mic Mini receiver, and the Mic Series Mobile Receiver supports the Mic Mini 2 alongside Mic 2 and Mic 3 units.

Five Configurations at Lower Prices Than the Original

The pricing is a steep cut from the original Mic Mini at every tier. The original launched in November 2024 at €59 for a single transmitter, €89 for a transmitter and receiver, and €169 for the full bundle. The Mic Mini 2 cuts those figures across the board:

• Transmitter only: listed at €33 (availability may vary by market at launch)
• 1 TX + 1 RX: €59
• 1 TX + 1 Mobile RX + Charging Case: from €54
• 2 TX + 1 Mobile RX + Charging Case: €79
• 2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case (all 10 covers): from €89 / £89

The top-tier bundle is down at least 41% from the original’s €169 launch price. That positions the Mic Mini 2 well below the Rode Wireless Go III and Hollyland Lark M2 at comparable or lower spec points.

Features DJI Is Keeping for the Mic 3

The Mic Mini 2 has no internal storage and does not support 32-bit float recording. Both remain exclusive to the Mic 3, which starts at $219 for a single transmitter-receiver combo. Timecode synchronization is also absent. For solo recording or multi-camera professional workflows, the Mic 3 remains the appropriate choice. The Mic Mini 2 sits firmly in the prosumer tier.

DJI Mic Mini 2: No US Launch at Release

The Mic Mini 2 is not on sale in the United States today. DJI has not received FCC certification for the device, following the same pattern as the DJI Osmo Pocket 4, which launched globally on April 16 and also skipped the US. As DroneXL noted when the Hong Kong listing appeared last week, DJI’s position on the FCC’s Covered List since December 2025 has now extended beyond drones to consumer audio hardware with no national security profile. US buyers have no confirmed purchase path at this time.

DroneXL’s Take

The pricing story here is the one worth paying attention to. I’ve been covering DJI’s audio lineup since the original Mic Mini first appeared in FCC filings back in 2024, and a 47% cut on the top-tier bundle is not a routine second-gen adjustment. DJI is clearly holding position against a budget wireless mic market that has moved fast. Hollyland, Rode, and a long tail of sub-€30 options have all pushed into the space the original Mic Mini owned. The Mic Mini 2 answers with a lower floor and a color story that has nothing to do with audio and everything to do with shelf appeal.

The absence of internal recording is worth noting because DJI teased the DJI Mic Mini 2S on the same day as this launch, confirming that feature is coming to the Mini tier later in 2026. Anyone who specifically needs onboard recording should wait for the 2S before buying in.

The US situation keeps getting harder to explain with a straight face. A €33 microphone with no data transmission function or persistent connectivity caught in a national security review framework built for drone hardware is the clearest indicator yet of how broadly the FCC Covered List designation is being applied. When and whether DJI resolves its FCC status remains an open question with no confirmed timeline.
