With its DJI Mini 3, the brand wanted to offer a compact drone designed for those who are starting out in aerial video, but who also have a limited budget. A drone which also presents very good value for money, and which can be found with a 30% discount for Black Friday in advance.
Within the catalog of drones designed by DJI, we find both models designed for aerial video professionals and affordable, more general public references, which stand out in particular for their compact format that is easy to handle. The DJI Mini 3 falls into this category. And if it is less complete in its Pro version, it has solid arguments to convince amateur videographers, such as its ability to film in 4K.
The strong points of the DJI Mini 3
- Un drone compact
- Images filmed in 4K at 30 fps
- Good autonomy
Instead of 579 euros, the DJI Mini 3 with its radio control is currently on sale at 329 euros. It is also found at 439 euros instead of 629 euros with its radio control equipped with a screen.

Lightweight, easy to handle
It is its compact format and its lightness that allow the DJI Mini 3, which lives up to its name, to stand out from many competitors. This drone weighs less than 250g and measures just 14.8cm high, 9cm wide and 6.2cm deep when folded. We will still be careful not to fly it in the middle of strong gusts of wind, its light weight making it much more vulnerable to these phenomena. Note also that this contained weight prevents you from having to hold a flight license (compulsory for drones weighing more than 250 g), but training never hurts.
Otherwise, the drone comes with an RC-N1 radio control which requires the use of a phone in parallel to operate and view the images captured live on the DJI Fly application. If you prefer to have a screen directly on the radio control, you will have to go for the model accompanied by an RC radio control, which is more high-end and therefore equipped with a screen.
Well-detailed aerial videos
The DJI Mini 3 may be much more affordable than its Pro version, but it is still equipped with the same camera as its big brother. It is equipped with a 1/1.3 inch 48 megapixel CMOS sensor and a wide-angle lens opening at f/1.7 equivalent to 24 mm. The drone can therefore capture 12 megapixel photos thanks to the pixel binning. And on the video side, it can film in 4K at 30 fps. Certainly, the Pro version does better with 4K at 60 fps, but the quality of the video and the richness of details offered by the DJI Mini 3 still remain more than satisfactory.
The DJI Mini 3 also integrates the O2 transmission system limited to 10 km and provides several shooting functions, such as QuickShots (Drone, Rocket, Circle, Spiral and Boomerang) and Panorama mode. The Timelapse modes and MasterShots shots, available on the DJI Mini 3 Pro, are however absent, but amateur videographers already have plenty to do with the options already included. Finally, the DJI Mini 3 clearly makes up for it with its autonomy: 38 to 51 minutes of flight here compared to 34 to 47 minutes of flight for the Pro. Net advantage for the DJI Mini 3, therefore.
