Every creator who films on the move knows the sinking feeling: you check the footage back home and the audio cut out halfway through the interview, or the wireless connection dropped for thirty seconds at exactly the wrong moment. DJI’s answer to that specific anxiety is the new Mic Mini 2S, a wireless microphone small enough to double as a jacket accessory, but built this time with its own memory to fall back on when the signal doesn’t.
A backup that lives inside the microphone itself
The core upgrade here isn’t really about sound quality in the traditional sense, it’s about insurance. Each Mic Mini 2S transmitter packs around 14.5 GB of onboard storage, enough to hold up to 28 hours of audio recorded directly on the mic itself, independent of whatever camera or phone it’s paired with. Lose the wireless connection mid shoot, and the recording simply keeps going locally instead of vanishing.
That local recording also supports 32-bit float capture, a format that gives editors far more room to rescue a clip after the fact. Rather than needing to manually watch gain levels during a shoot, sudden volume spikes, a shout, a slammed door, a burst of laughter, become fixable in post rather than ruined on the spot.
Disguised as an accessory, built for noisy environments
DJI has leaned further into the mic’s stealth design too, offering swappable front covers that make the roughly 12 gram transmitter look more like a small pin or button than recording equipment. That’s not purely cosmetic. Alongside the new recording capability, DJI has added two tiers of AI powered noise reduction, one tuned to quiet indoor hums like fans or air conditioning, the other built to cut through noisier outdoor settings such as traffic or wind, exactly the kind of environments where a barely visible microphone tends to get used most.
Built for more than a single voice
A single receiver can now pair with up to four transmitters simultaneously, double the previous generation’s limit, opening the Mic Mini 2S up to interviews, roundtables and multi guest podcasts rather than just solo pieces to camera. It also stays compatible with transmitters from earlier Mic Mini generations, and connects directly to a number of DJI’s own Osmo cameras without needing a separate receiver at all.
What it costs
The DJI Mic Mini 2S is on sale now. A single transmitter and receiver set carries a recommended price of 899 kroner, while the two transmitter bundle, which adds a second mic and a charging case, costs 1,599 kroner.
