This has got to be one of the best comparison videos I've seen - direct, to the point, well laid out, and excellent examples to illustrate the results. Really well done, thanks!
Thanks! Really appreciate it. Glad you found it helpful!
Well done young man. Your pace was quick, but easy to understand what you were saying. Your scoring was fair and if a viewer has one of the rating areas of one of these that is most important, he can get the one that wins the point in that area. I already have an Air2s and weight and size is not a problem for me. But if either of those parameters were important to me, I am sure I would be happy with the 3 PRO. And, you are right, the DJI RC controller is worth every penny for it. Thanks
Thanks!!! Really appreciate the feedback and encouragement!
DUDEEE!!!! Please do NOT stop making content! This was so easy to follow through and you really proved your skills with those clips! Looking forward to seeing so so much more.
Thanks for the kind words! Really appreciate it and definitely will keep on making content.
U r the only so details.
Congrats for the precise, clear and unbiased comparison. Content, screenplay, copy write, indoor and outdoor scenarios as well as an excellent edition.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks, finally got the comparison review i was looking for. After months of research from some other youtubers, this is best straight to the point video and comparison. Surprise took youtube algorithm this long to finally show your video.
Wow, glad you found it useful!! My goal is to give the best value for your time. 🙌
One of the best reviews I’ve seen!!!!! Keep up the great work and this video was dope 👏🏼💪🏼
Thanks Will! Appreciate the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it.
this young man deserves a million subs.
Well done , thorough comparison , easy to understand , thanks for the effort , Salute
Good video. My friend has both of these, I have the mini 3 pro. I find the RC controller is a lot more sensitive than using the RC-N1 so even in Cine mode with settings it’s not far off normal which with the mini 2 there was a significant difference. Little tip for you, number your batteries 1-2-3 then when you’re out you know which battery is used and which is next ready to go
Thanks David! I haven't noticed a difference in cine mode speeds when switching between the DJI RC and RC N1 on my both Mini 3 Pro and Air 2S, so I wonder if it could be a difference between the Mini 2 and the Mini 3 Pro. But it could be! And thanks for the battery tip! I've been a bit annoyed by the lack of battery level indicator LEDs on the Mini 3 Pro batteries, but that could definitely help.
Really great video, straight forward, super helpful! Thank you
Thanks Tim! Really appreciate it.
Excellent presentation. I learned so much. Thank you for posting. Please keep up the good work!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Will do. 👍
You forgot Precision Landing. The Air2S has an additional downward camera the Mini3Pro is lacking that allows it to land on a dime if you fallow the takeoff steps property. Also the Air2S has a downward lighting system.
Good point! I left out several differences, because I just couldn't put everything in, and for me being able to autoland on a dime isn't really something I use. But for some people that could make a difference!
Epic review & comparison my man, keep it up!
Excellent comparison, thanks! This is the choice I'm looking at making to start a business so this was exactly what I needed.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful for you!
Good stuff, got lots of info i was looking for. Im not into drone scenery recording. Im into photogrametry and MP matter, which u cleared up and noise
Excellent comparison. Answered all my questions and then some!
Thanks Bruce! Glad you found it useful! 🙌
good breakdown and really well approached
Loved the video, watched the intro several times, impressive!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! The intro was fun to do!
Great video. Excellent pacing and fair point system. I have both and really just need one so I was contemplating returning the Mini 3.
Thanks Juan! Glad you enjoyed it! If you don't feel like the extra features on the Mini 3 are something you need, might as well go with the Air 2S!
Very useful review covering all the bases objectively. Looking to add another drone and this video answers most of my questions. Thanks much.
No problem! Glad you found it useful!
This has got to the best comparison video for these 2. 🔥🔥
Thanks! That's the goal!!!
That is what I call start with the rights foot. Very well done, excellent pace without waste of time. I look the full video.
Thanks! Appreciate it!
I watched this video and was super impressed by the quality. You should seriously have 10x the number of followers. I'm sure it will happen with time. Great job
Thanks! I really appreciate that! Hopefully we'll get there in time!
Amazing video! Very helpful comparison! Thumbs up! Thanks
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Very impressively done. Keep doing what you're doing sir, you got a bright future ahead of you.
Thanks! I appreciate that! Will do. 🙌
Have both. Got the dji rc contoller to use for both. I use the air2s for any wedding video drone work in the US. If i am doing a destination wedding, the mini 3 pro is my go to
Way to go!! They each have their own best use.
Awesome review !! mate, you have covered every point that somebody may want to know 🤘
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
56-year-old and just trying out drones bought a starter DJI Mini 2 SE a couple weeks ago while trying to decide which drone to get for quality. I am looking at these two exact drones as my choice. This video helped me so much and I’m ready to get the next drone already. Thank you for this detailed and straight forward video.
Yeah they downgraded mini2 to the se designation, when possible folks should really look for the regular mini 2 allowing 4k recording. Downloading the Litchi app really opens up the potential a bit closer to the air 2 model but still a far cry from the air 2S, best quality and performance for the money aside from the mini3 pro fits somewhere in between them all as well. Happy flying.
Getting ready to upgrade after I pass my 107. This makes me want to spend the extra money for the Air 2s. Great review. All buisness and I like that. I liked and subscribed. wil look at your other vids as time allows. You have a great YT presents. Keep up the good work.
Wonderful, thorough comparison. I am a new subscriber and look forward to more of your content.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it George!
At first I was skeptical just seeing the intro but I have to say well put together and very well done. I have to agree with all the comments made about both quads. Nice Job.
Thanks! Really appreciate it!
This was great to watch, thank you!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
Perfect comparison. Thank you!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video my boy! Subscribed and wish you luck 😉!
Thanks! Appreciate it!
Awesome video!👏😎 Thanks for making it and sharing 🙂
Thanks Levi! Glad you found it helpful!
I can definitely see where the inspiration for this video and channel must be from but You've done a solid job ! Very good video and information nicely shown. Good job ! 😄
Haha, thanks, really appreciate it Sebastian!
This is the best comparison.. keep going young champ❤️
Thanks! Really appreciate it!
Wow! Finally some content worth a penny! Thanks bro!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Creating quality content is my goal!
Really good test! Great job man! I have now my SECOND Mavic Air 2s. This drone is amazing and really durable. I crash it many times but after one year I totally damage it in crash with tarmac in sport mode. I got new one from DJi. MA2s - best drone ever! 😃
Thx. Great detailed comparison
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!
I agree this is the best detailed comparison video.... A++++
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Good video- i like it because you pointed out the subjects that matters for me as a AIR2S owner and thinking about the need for the smaller drone because of regulations. But i do Love my 1 inch sensor though…
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!! There definetly are some tradeoffs to getting the smaller drone, but if it makes it so you can fly more, I'd say it's worth it!
wow the best comparison ever! a ton of points nobody else even talked about... subscribed with notifications on!
Thanks!! That's my goal 🙌
@@flyingfilmmaker just bought my air 2s flymore bc of this video!!! Owe many thanks to you
Awesome! Have fun with it!!
fantastic. love your efficiency
Thanks!! I like watching efficient videos so I try to make mine that way too.
Great comparison! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I just found out about this video by swiping through Google News' recommendations. Nice footage, good editing, and sound effects. Overall, you did a tremendous job. Congratulations! Keep up the great work.
That's great!! Thanks so much, I really appreciate it! 🙌
the main reason for me for the Mini is the vertical gimbal feature which is VERY nice to have when u do a lot of social media posts. And as u can buy the Mini Pro also without any controller and it can be used with the Standard controller of the AIr2S as well its a great option for a second Drone to have for social media and travel.
Yep, that is a very handy feature. I actually did exactly that, just got the Mini 3 Pro without controller and used it with my AIr 2S controller. But after a while one of my controllers broke, so I decided to get the DJI RC and now I use my second RC N1 as a backup.
Great comparison, thanks! Wonder how the mini 4 competes here, I think it goes par on par in some categories.
Nice and unbiased video💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Thinking about getting the air 2s, your video was very helpful.
Thanks!! Glad you found it useful!!
Best comparison I've ever seen!
Thanks!! I really appreciate it!
perfect comparison
A lovely concise presentation finally. The sub 250g is a winner where tight regulations apply, but this video is making me think now.
Yep, the Mini 3 pro is a great drone! But in some areas it does struggle.
thank you for your video! it is very informative!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
No bullshit straight to the point video. Well done mate!
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m just getting into flying drones. I have a relatively cheap one right now so I can learn to fly it. However I feel I will want to upgrade so I’m able to film some cool things. That of course will be a completely new learning curve. Great video! I’ll be watching some more of your videos to learn.
Yep, that's the way to do it! Keep going and soon you'll be getting epic shots!
Excellent review.
Awesome comparison. Thank you for the detail and work you put into making it!
I started with a Mini 3 Pro for real estate photo/video and love it, except for what you showed in the video - high winds cause the camera to jostle too much to be reliable in my area. I debated between the spendy Mavic 3 classic and Air 2s and went with the Air 2s and love it. It handles those ground winds at up to 40 mph gusts even when getting up to 400 feet. Video quality is great too…the only thing I miss about the Mini 3 pro is the ability to take vertical photos and video with just the two of the shutter - no extra editing required. Changing props on the Air 2s is much faster too. Again, awesome video…I wish I would have found it before buying!
Thank you! Really appreciate it. Glad you found it helpful! The Air 2S really is amazing in high winds. I have yet to change the props on my Mini 3 Pro, but I wasn't too thrilled with having to screw them off if/when I need to.
I'm buying my first drone, and then later on, I'm going to start a aerial drone photography business. I'm having a hard time choosing between the mini 3 Pro and the air 2s. Would you recommend the air 2s for me?
What a great video. I've been trying to decide between these drones for a while :)
Thanks Nick! Glad you found it useful!
Excellent comparison
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, thanks! And i really mean it. I’ve been considering to buy my first drone since last year to capture my family holidays. Your video really helps to give me option outside of DJI minis. I know I’m a beginner at drones, but I know a thing or two about photography. I want my purchase future proof and gives me the best value of my budget.
Thanks! So glad to hear that it was helpful!!
Wow, nice video. I just found your channel and subscribed. I have the Air 2S but am most likely getting the Mini 3 Pro too, due to the noise factor and being able to fly it in areas where the Air 2S might be a bit too loud. Great comparative video, you nailed it. Bravo!
I have both, the AIR 2S Fly More Combo with RC Controller, & Mini 3 Pro with RC Controller..you can buy the Refurbished Mini 3 Pro with RC Controller for $729 from the DJI Store. That's what I did & I will always buy refurbished from now on. You literally couldn't tell the difference between new and Refurbished. The batteries & accessories are brand new with zero cycles, same 1 year factory warranty & with refurbished you can still get the Care Refresh Plan.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Noise is really a big factor!
Holy shit!!! That's a hell of channel! +1 subscriber! I really loved your videos.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good comparison video. I had both and kept Mini 3 Pro over the Air 2s because of its size, weight, and less noisy. M3P is more compact and fits in my travel cases better. Caveat, other than to film real estate, I don’t use drones for other professional reasons. I’m also in SoCal where the weather is mostly good conditions to fly, so the m3p usually does not have an issue here.
Amazing review mate🙌🏽
Thanks man! Really appreciate it!
This is very helpful, thank you!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
@@flyingfilmmaker It really was! I went with the DJI Mini 3 with a fly more bundle, so far the footage I've got with absolutely no editing in post has blown me away. Friends and family can't believe it's footage that I've taken myself, so I call that a win! I also find the controls incredibly easy to manage, and I'll definitely be getting out and filming with this quite a bit all summer long! Thanks again for the review, it helped me finally make the purchase.
Obrigado pelo conteúdo, Abraço de Portugal
Obrigado! Que bom que você gostou.
Nice, concise presentation. Great pacing. All the relevant parameters covered. Useful information in the lower thirds. Overall, incredibly helpful. Subscribed.
Thanks Tim! Really appreciate it! Glad you found it useful!!
Great review!
Great vid! You deserve more subs for sure !
Thanks ! Really appreciate it. Definitely working on that!
...thank you very much..... Greetings and blessings from South Germany.. 👋🙂
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! I have grandparents in Germany, so I've been there several times! Beautiful country!
First comparison I’ve seen where the author shows the same shot/video or image when comparing color profile or resolution! Good job!
Hard to compare if it’s a completely different shot.
Not sure which I’m going with yet at this point
Thanks! Yep, that is pretty essential to being able to make an informed decision! Either will be a great drone! 🙌
Great video
Thumb up
Well put together review, Well done Sir. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤜🤛
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Nice information
great honest review !
Thanks!
great info, thanks
Thanks! Glad you found it useful!
I noticed slightly better range when using the NC-R1 controller with the Mini 3 Pro rather than the DJI RC controller. It's not a big difference but I do get better performance from the NC-R1 and think that might be where the added range of the AIR 2S comes from in this test.
Both test were using the same RC N-1 controller.
great review :) good relevant information thank you :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
SUBSCRIBED. great content!
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
I am not sure why your Mini 3 was stopping so much on active track. I did an extreme active track test on my channel and as you can see it works so well following me on a bike on a trail. Great video and information 👍
Naše gore list, bravo top primerjava!
The is a awesome comparison bro. New Subscriber!
Thanks! Appreciate it! And thanks for the sub!
Great video!
Thanks Justin!
Thank you so much 💓 sir from India 🇮🇳 😘😘😘
Good comparison, both are good drones. And a lot of it comes down to how important a sub 250 gram drone is to you. And how important vertical video is to your workflow. If either one or both are, the Mini 3 is the clear choice. I tend to use the Mini 3 Pro with the plus battery more than the Air 2s because of the extend flight time. But don't get me wrong, the Air 2s is still the better drone in many ways, especially for flying in high winds. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Good summary of which is better for what.
Which is the better drone for beginners?
Good comparison. I do favor the Air 2s more since I own one. The biggest thing I seen with the Mini 3 primarily for me, was it was quieter, and the longer battery life stood out the most. I don't really care about the gamble rotating 90 degrees or not. I just would rather use my iPhone or even a tablet for watching what my drone was doing whether it was the Mini 3 or Air 2s. I currently own the Mini 2 as well and the Avata.
I have seen a couple videos where people have literally just let the drone hover and I have never seen either of these drones pull off the times to the "Tee" of what they claim. However; longer flying times is also a plus and I know those times are more of an upsell than actual flight times of you using it in a normal matter and the deduction is only a couple minutes less at the most.
Good Video Young man!
Thanks! Good points!
Awesome video just what i wanted to see ta
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!
hatsoff amazing comparison dear brother
Thanks!! Glad you liked it!
I bought my Air 2S when it first came out, so I have had it a while. Instead of upgrading the drone, I upgraded the controller and got the RC Pro controller. It was expensive, but it is the best controller out, and it is super bright, plus it is a regular Android device so you can load extra apps on it. It is worth upgrading to the RC Pro, instead of upgrading your drone. It turned my Air 2S into a beast of a drone.
Great video!
I own both drones and Mini Pro 3 has been used most lately, because it’s so silent. Just wonderful to fly. But it struggels in wind, as you mention.
Thanks!! The noise levels are a big plus on the Mini 3 Pro. Really enjoy it as well.
I agree. Have both too and find the Mini 3 flown more. For me is the lack of fear if something happens to the Mini 3, where if it happens to the A2S, I’m really hurt. I guess that is why I fly the M3 more. I could “lose” it.
Hi when u say struggling in wind how much wind speed are we talking about? I bought 3 pro but i feel like to change to air 2s after seeing its struggle and other comparison
@@pratikpinoakawolverine it struggles mainly with strong wind (12 m/s and up) in gusts, since it's so light.
My Air 2S is solid in the same kind of wind.
@@NiklasKrog thanks brother but flight time of 2s is low with even advance battery plus right?
Wow this is actually really professional
Thanks!
Great Video!
Thanks!
Great information!
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!
Awesome comparison, cant wait for your comparison of Air2s vs their nevest Air when it comes out.
Thanks! I'm definitely looking forward to getting my hands on an Air 3 when they release it!
@@flyingfilmmaker xD Did you see the leaks? Gonna comment on them?
@@SiRedCat certainly have! I don't know if I'll make a video on the leaks, but it sure looks like it's shaping up to be an awesome drone!
Love the video.. I been trying to upgrade my Mavic Air 1. I think I'll get the air 2s.
Solid choice!
Great video and comparoson! The Air 2S will be my first drone! 🙏🏼❤️
New follower here! 😎
I also do aerial videography with DJI Air 2S some of them in my channel, and I learned a lot from your channel. thank you so much!🤞
