Drone enthusiasts, the DJI Mini 5 Pro has arrived, impressing many, but unfortunately, it's unreachable for U.S. buyers. So, what's the next best thing on the market?
In the ever-evolving world of drone technology, three models stand out: the DJI Air 3S, the Potensic Atom 2, and the DJI Mini series, specifically the Mini 4 Pro and the upcoming Mini 5 Pro. Here's a breakdown of these drones' key features and differences.
DJI Air 3S: A Prosumer's Delight
The DJI Air 3S, priced at $1,099 on Amazon, offers exceptional low-light performance, thanks to its noise reduction technology. It captures video in 10-bit D-Log M or HLG profiles, boasting a dynamic range of up to 14 stops. Its dual-camera system allows for wide-angle and medium telephoto shots, and it features a 1-inch sensor and next-gen obstacle avoidance. The Air 3S also offers 42GB internal storage.
The Air 3S, remaining the reviewer's favourite drone, slightly outprices the Mini 5 Pro but serves as a great alternative for those seeking a more advanced model.
Potensic Atom 2: A Budget-Friendly Option
The Potensic Atom 2, priced competitively, is a budget-friendly drone option, weighing less than 250g. It records smooth 4K/30fps video and captures 48MP stills. The Atom 2 introduces upgrades such as an improved controller with a mobile mount. While it does not feature obstacle avoidance, the surroundings can be seen clearly on screen.
Advanced AI subject tracking and an easy-to-use controller further enhance the Atom 2's appeal.
DJI Mini Series: Accessible and Affordable
The DJI Mini 4 Pro, priced at $1,157 at Adorama, weighs less than 250g, making it accessible to most pilots, especially beginners. Its footage is stable and smooth due to its three-axis mechanical gimbal. The Mini 4 Pro takes stunning 48MP photos and records 4K/60fps and slow-motion FHD/200fps footage.
The Mini 4 Pro, provided as an alternative in the USA before the Mini 5 Pro became available, features improved low-light performance. It also boasts omnidirectional obstacle avoidance.
For those looking for a more affordable alternative, the Mini 4 Pro's predecessor, the Mini 4 Pro, is a great choice.
In conclusion, each of these drones offers unique features catering to various needs and budgets. Whether you're a beginner or a prosumer, there's a drone to suit your requirements in the DJI Air 3S, Potensic Atom 2, and DJI Mini series.
