Mini 3 The Latest DJI Drone Review – Why Should It Be Your First Drone?

As we already broke the news to our readers that DJI is going to release Mini 3 drone next few days, it’s finally here and surprisingly very affordable. We will go down to describe each of its specs and features in detail below. Mini 3 is nearly as good as Mini 3 pro with for a lot less price tag as its counterpart is. I think this is what makes it every drone lovers prime purchase this week. Being a sub-250 grams drone it made me fall in love at the first touch. No joke this drone is best for a christmas or new year gift. So if you have not purchased Mini 3 pro due to higher price tag, you can directly go for mini 3–the best dji drone with loads of greater things in the parcel.

All these sub-250 drones are always a pleasure to have. They strip most of the worries of the drone lovers as they are already following the guidelines even without carrying about them.

Here are the greatest things we loved in new DJI Mini 3:

1- CMS sensor – 1/1.3
2- Apeture – f/1.7
3- The HDR video qaulity was great recording at 4k/30fps it does not matter what time of the day or night is.
4- Vertical video shooting for social media in amazing quality
5- New 4-in-1 technology to enhance the photos quality from 12MPs to 48MPs due to its new pixel technology.
6- The fieldview is much deeper and sharp, highest resolution and of course almost no image noise it does not matter how low the lights are. 7- The image quality is that good on the new DJI mini 3.

We have just mentioned the top of the line things which really make a big difference despite the price cut.

Flight Time

The intelligent batteries let us enjoy the 48-minute long flight. While we can use the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus and extend the flight time to 51-minutes. But due that the its weight might go over 250-grams so that’s up to you how and what exactly do you want to do with this drone. We were happy with the sub-250 grams with Intellight Flight Battery and do not want to bother with the plus battery at this time. So more than half an hour of time is not bad to get the desired footage captured and photos taken on its camera without disturbing its weightclass.

Mini 3 Transmission System at 10 km Distance

Let’s talk about Mini 3’s transmission system. It comes with a 02 digital video transmission system and we get 720p/30fps live feed from the exnteded range of 10 km. It’s transmission is also very reliable from the DJI which is done through their new anti-interference technology. The 10.7 m/s of DJI Mini 3 is good enough for this drone to hover steadily in place and deliver very stable images in various conditions. Mini 3 does not have tri-directional avoidance which we saw in the Pro version previously.

Mini 3 has QuickShots like the pro version of this drone which is a complete suite for auto-piloting and defined paths. It helps you capture the most iconic cinematography on your drone that comes way cheaper than its predecessors. It also allows us to capture the landscapes and do the vertical shooting for social media. In every possible way Mini 3 is totally a drone for everyone not just those who could shell more than a couple of thousand dollars.

It’s a boon for the new users. Every beginner can try it without giving it a second thought. There are reasons for that. For instance it has Auto-Take-off and easy to execute auto RTH feature that takes away the pains of getting it back once it’s in the air. So it does not matter if the battery runs out or the transmission has been lost. It could manage to get back on its own.

New DJI Mini 3 Price

DJI Mini 3 is way affordable as compared to its peers. Having RC-N1 already we can easily opt to go for the new Mini 3 drone and spend a few hundreds more on that. Otherwise it’s cool that way. But the RC-N1 upgrade with a Mini 3 drone would come only in 2023. While with the RC-N1 remote controller we can get our hands at DJI Mini 3 today at $559. The flymore combo options cost a couple of hundreds extra that also gets us many accessories that come with package. With just under $900 we can get everything in the package including the DJI Mini 3 drone, DJI RC Remote Controller, shoulder bag, Two-Way Charging Hub, and two extra batteries.
