no.
the DJI screen is, i seem to recall, 1080p at the best of times.
the SD card can record video up to 4k.....
conflicted: Phantom 4 Pro + (with 5.5” display) vs the Phantom 4 Pro

What I meant was downloaded and saved, not displayed. Sorry for the confusion.

I'd like to know what the battery life on the remote is like with that screen.

Reports from current owners are you can fly 10 new P4P batteries (max) before you would have to charge the controller back up to 100%.

To be fair, the video is shot in overcast conditions and flat light rather than direct sunlight. However, even the off angle view is still quite readable from the side. Impressive!

How clear is your Ipad 2? I've got the Ipad air for my Phantom 2 Vision + and it just seems a bit pixelated to me. Is your cell service turned on as well as your GPS on the pad?

Should bring it out here to Arizona for testing. I'll show them what 'direct sunlight' looks like.
You don't have lightbridge on that P2V. You need to see an iPad Air2 using lightbridge. It's a big improvement over wifi technology. It's quite good for clarity, pretty consistent 720 HD resolution, but it could be brighter, for sure. The upcoming 7.9" CrystalSky display looks very interesting, 2000nit! Yowee. If that's true I'll be getting one.

In addition to the 5.5" 1000 nit CrysalSky, there are apparently two 7.9" CrystalSky displays, one said to offer 1000 nits, and the other 2000 nits. If the 5.5" is $500, and the 7.9" 1000 nit version is $800, the 2000 nit version 7.9" has got to be really pricey.
Based on the given availability I'm thinking (having a hard time) maybe to order P4P instead of P4P+...
question: can the standard P4 controller charge an iPad Air 2?
I like the built in screen it's easy use, one button, one device to charge and not taking care if each and every device is fully charged.

Another question related to the P4P+ RC with its SD slot...is the main purpose that you can insert the SD card from the drone with the pics and Videos in order to review/edit them within the app on the built in screen?
If so, you would be not possible to do the same with the standard RC in combination with an IPad as there is no SD slot?

Vendors are saying that they expect the P4P+ units in by the end of next week. That doesn't seem like that much extra a wait to get what you really want.
You never know if that really will become reality so quick
It would be good to know already the future pricing for the CrystalSky the small and larger screen? As those can be used most likely for future models...the integrated one is maybe only for the P4P as the RC itself will most likely not work on any new a phantom series in the future :-(
As the P4P would be my first DJI drone, how do I get the recorded pictures and videos from the drones SD card on my iPad (no SD slot) and the DJI Go 4 app for any review??

You buy a cheap adapter like these: iPad SD Card Reader | eBay
Regarding the original question: pro+ vs pro: I have been flying Inspire, Phantom 3 and 4 all with an iPad air. As much as I like the size of the iPad I find it virtually impossible to view the screen without using a Hoodman visor to block out the light. The combination of a relative lack of brightness and a highly reflective screen on the iPad makes it difficult to use, even on cloudy days. The Hoodman is an excellent accessory that successfully addresses this issue BTW. I have ordered the P4P+ because of the claimed brighter screen. I think I would trade size for brightness. I also like the simplicity of having the integrated screen and not having to attach a Hoodman visor. If I find that the smaller screen is just too small I may exchange for the regular Pro and continue to use my iPad/Hoodman combination and wait until the Crystal Sky monitor becomes available and then consider it.
The Phantom 4 Pro+ controller should work with the Phantom 4 Pro, Phantom 4, Phantom 3 Pro, Phantom 3 Advanced. It may even control the Mavic Pro (certainly via WiFi, but not sure with OccuSync)
The CrystalSky controller is backwards compatible as well. Since the Phantom 4 Pro+ controller has similar specs to the CrystalSky controller, there is ZERO doubt that both controllers will work with many future models of the Phantom and other DJI drones.
