Is the Mavic Air 2 Worth it?

i've been looking around for a drone and found a relatively cheap Mavic Air 2
is it still worth it in 2024?
also, i've seen a lot of battery problems too
like a lot of battery swelling up like its the Ronin M all over again
i don't want to spend wayyy too much on a newer gen drone but I also dont want a drone that has incendiary grenades for batteries

Personally Id look for a second hand Mini 3 instead,    the only battery issue they have is the tabs.    Apart from that its a rally reliable drone.

yeah that's probably what im gonna get since it's pretty cheap new
though not having active track and sensors is a minus
might just get the mini 3 pro
thanks

I've got both the Air 2 and Air 2S and to date I have not had any battery problems whatsoever.  If you can pick up the Air 2 for relatively cheap then it is still a good buy in 2024.  If you want a really portable drone then you could find a good used Mini 3 Pro for sale.

Depends on how much you will use those features,   personally I have the pro but never use active track and fly mostly with the sensors turned off as they have issues in low light etc.
