DJI officially launched two new beginner-friendly drones, the Lito 1 and Lito X1, on April 23, 2026. These models are designed to cater to entry-level users and effectively replace DJI’s Mini series as the company’s primary offering in the beginner segment [1][2].
Both the Lito 1 and Lito X1 are lightweight, weighing under 249 grams, and feature a foldable design, enhancing their portability [3][1]. The drones are equipped with omnidirectional obstacle detection and ActiveTrack subject tracking, providing users with advanced navigational capabilities [4][1].
The Lito 1 is equipped with a 1/2-inch CMOS sensor capable of capturing 48 MP photos and 4K video, with an f/1.8 aperture [4][5]. In contrast, the Lito X1 features a larger 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor, also 48 MP, with an f/1.7 aperture. It supports HDR video with up to 14 stops of dynamic range and 10-bit D-Log M [4][1].
Both drones offer up to 36 minutes of flight time with the standard Intelligent Flight Battery [4][6]. The Lito X1 includes 42 GB of internal storage, providing ample space for media capture [4][3]. Additionally, both models include smart shooting modes such as QuickShots, MasterShots, Hyperlapse, Panorama, and ActiveTrack [4][2].
Pricing for the Lito series in Europe starts at €339 for the Lito 1 and €419 for the Lito X1. The Fly More Combo packages are available at €479 and €579, respectively [4][1]. As of the launch, the Lito series is not officially available in the United States [3][7].
