DJI Mini 3 - Best Valued Beginner Mini Drone

Mini 3 is on sale at Costco for $429, with controller, 64 gb SD card, and nd filters.

Why my mini 3 drone do not have tracking mode ?

You should unbox the mini 3 from costco i see not alot of people unboxing only mini 3 pro.😊😊

My Mini 3 doesn’t have the Pano mode. Please help

Very happy that the Mini 3 can now shoot in 48mp. Seems like an amazing drone for the price. Cant wait to get it

Thanks for the info. I an upgrading from a Spark to Mini3. After watching a Mini2 in action, impressed with longer flight time. Doing mostly still vacation photos selling point was camera looks up and flight time.

Man… I don’t even have a drone I’ve been waiting for years but am too poor…

after 6 months still the best video that compares similar models side by side. thanks a lot!

If you use the controller that connects to your smartphone you can get better cell service the higher the drone gets.

The sensor size is not slightly larger though. It goes from a 6.16x4.62=28.46mm^2 size sensor to a 10x7.5=75mm^2 size sensor. This is 2.6 times the area, so 2.6 times more light captured, not even taking into account the also hugely improved aperture, you gain another 1.5 stops more light. In the end, the mini 3 will be able to capture 6.5 times more light on its sensor in the same exposure. More light = less noise and more dynamic range.

Great video bro am learning about my drone today first fly

Nice just got my drone today Dji mini 3

Fantastic review

is the battery the same ?mini 3 and mini 3 pro?

I cant wait for my mini 3 to arrive…I am a first time flyer😅

Impression or is the mini 3 quieter than the mini 3 pro?

I went to a mini 3 from an original Air my god what a difference. Just miss the collision detection a little.

amazing video so concise and amazing audio clips for the sound, everythign i was looking for, i love this video, i will use ur referral link later if i buy haha

Love your videos

bought the mini 3 and have had it for a month... now i want the 3 pro... i should have just gotten the 3 pro to start with LOL now i have to muster up another $800 for the pro

Not worth buying because very bad batteries and nothing even near 38 minutes as advertised

Do we have hyperlapse on Mini 3?

Another blind drone. So sad! Expencive and stupid ?

Great video buddy. Looks like I'm back to wanting a drone again. Mini 3 Pro is looking like the best one to get thank you

Why do you like the RC Controller over the standard controller with a cell phone? I have a Samsung Galaxy S22+ - it has a larger screen. It has a brighter screen. I can run other apps on it like Litchi. Is is simply the time saved connected the phone to the controller?

The main feature if Love for a small compact drone for travel and adventures is the active track which is why I sold my mini 2 and looking to get the mini3 Pro so I always bummed out when it was not included…I have to r Air2s for most of my drone shots ..but it’s too big for my mountain biking so I’m still leaning on the mini3 pro or wait for a mini 4 pro or mini 4 with active track and bigger sensor ..

It should be mini Se 2

You are the best, I like the way you take ur time n explain everything

Hdr video

They should make dji mini 2 pro with sensors

Mini 2 is the best value for a beginner IMO.

Why do y’all exclude the original mavic mini?? It’s part of the DJI mini line up and yeah it’s over a few years old now but come on. Y’all can’t exclude the one that started it all

Just wish I could have one of the DJI drone as a Christmas gift but it feels impossible to my parents who can't afford it 😢😢 back here in Nigeria I am currently using by mom's phone for comment. My name is Emmanuel.

Excellent explained
But wondering who gonna buy this while we have the best alternative like mini 3 pro.😢

Thanks Aldryn

I wish I could have one of these insane drone.

Is there timelapse for the mini 3?

I'm waiting for a second gen fpv, the big one that goes 90mph that thing is so badass

Mini 2 is both a better value
And a better beginner drone, the price difference is huge

Would you consider the mini 3 pro an upgrade over the air 2s?

Awesome review as always Aldryn 👍🏻💪🏻

I still think the mini 2 is the top beginner drone.

I didn't think they were going to gate keep the frame rates and dcine. without those options this is mostly just a sensor and lens upgrade. I know it's objectively better in other things as well like flight noise and flight time but I don't value those very highly for a new pilot who's still learning imo.

If this Mini 3 uses Ocusync2 just like the Mini 2, then maybe DJI will open up the RC Controller to the Mini 2. Do you think that might happen?

Great Review. Lots of choices in the Sub 250 Minis

Isn’t the largest pixel size the reason why Mini 3 performs better than Mini 3 Pro in low light?

Any for sale

Can the Dji mini 2 battery be used on the Dji mini 3?

hyperlapse

Hello Aldryn. Thank you for your excellent overview video on the new Mini 3. They've packed a few more good options into the new drone. Your video and image comparison on this drone is excellent. The Mini 3 sure has outstanding imaging. Thank you for another fantastic video review and comparison of the new DJI Mini 3. Take Care.

Mini 2 owner here. While I love the idea of a M3 or M3P, I will wait until the SDK is published so Litchi and Maven can fully function on a more expensive drone.

Good for DJI in continually improving their product line - pretty cool stuff. There is some scuttlebutt that suggests DJI will not be releasing a SDK for the M3P. Hope that is not the case.
