DJI has announced a new drone series called Lito.
New entry-level series with two models
The Lito series consists of two variants: Lito 1 and Lito X1. Both models are aimed at the entry-level segment and weigh less than 250 grams.
Lito 1: aimed at beginners
The Lito 1 is the base model. This drone is an accessible option for beginners and the spiritual successor to the Mini 4K. The device films in 4K and offers 42 GB of internal storage. The Lito 1 features a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor. The aperture is fixed at f/1.8, and the camera performs best during the day. You have the necessary tools to get the most out of your aerial shots and achieve creative effects. These include AEB (bracketing), burst mode, panorama photography, timelapses, interval shooting, and hyperlapses.

Lito X1: for advanced users
The Lito X1 is aimed at users who want more than just basic functionality. The Lito X1 features a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor and, thanks to the larger sensor, offers a wider dynamic range. Thanks to the larger sensor, the camera also performs better in low light. Recordings can be made in 4K at 60 fps with HDR or 4K at 100 fps (slow motion) without HDR. It is also possible to film in Portrait mode, with a resolution of 2.7K. Finally, the X1 offers HDR video and 10-bit D-Log M.
DJI further expands its product range
With the arrival of the Lito series, DJI is once again adding a product line to its consumer offering. In addition to existing series such as Mini, Neo, and Flip, an even broader spectrum of drones is emerging, ranging from simple to slightly advanced.
A brief summary of all new DJI drones under 250 grams:
