I see that DJI is about to release a new budget friendly drone ($300 USD) Its called the DJI Mini SE.
And despite the name, it doesn't seem to be a scaled-down version of the DJI Mini 2. Because while it has a similar design, its attributes seem closer to the original DJI Mavic Mini. The full specs listed are as follows:
