Its time for the two DJI baby's showdown!
Both drones share some similarities while also being completely different. As the Mavic has grown on us at Sphere to be one of our favourites, the Spark just has that special, well...spark!
Just quickly lets compare the specs:

TapFly & Active Track features | ✔ |
Dual Remote capabilities | ✘ |

As you can probably tell by now, the Mavic is definitely a Pro when it comes to the fine details. We do recommend the Mavic to all beginners and aspiring drone experts as it is easy to use as well as having a lot of great features that makes it so popular.
On the other hand, the Spark although lacking in some features that make the Mavic great for both leisure and professional use, is still a tough competitor. The Spark's revolutionary hand gesture control is a function that throws us directly into the space age of technology!
The Spark is almost exactly half the price of the Mavic Pro which is crazy if you think about it as in extreme simplicity, both drones do the same thing, fly and capture.
So who wins? We will let you decide...
