You took completely different pictures and videos to compare… Air 3 quality was in beautiful water with whales while Mavic 3 was out during cloudy conditions muddy water. Cmon, man…
You make a good point, I will be aware of this for future videos.
I’m surprised you gave the Air 3 the win in stills. You did say the M3C might have a slight edge bc of the sensor….but too many RUclipsrs are saying the Air 3 shoots 48mp stills without actually explaining it’s not true 48mp. A lot of folks out there with the Air 2S/Mavic 3 and the Air 3 have said how much better the photos are out of the bigger sensor drones.
Agree. All though I truly appreciate this RUclipsrs videos I think some of it comes down to wanting people to buy the 2s with their affiliate link
I think that the M3C can capture better images and videos due to the larger sensor but it is not a significant improvement. I don’t know if the extra price can justify this upgrade for most people.
I have both Mavic 3 Pro and the Air 3. Both are amazing, but I using the air 3 more, just because it’s more portable. The only thing is that because the air 3 doesn’t have variable aperture. So you really have to really use the filters. Also I have noticed that the battery life is better than my mavic 3.
Great feedback, thank you for commenting 👌
Really helpful; thanks mate
Thank you.
Going to upgrade my air2s to air 3
Awesome! I have some drone deals and bundles that will save you some money: linktr.ee/danstubetv
As a frequent global traveler, I need combination of small form factor drone like the Mini for international, as well as an Air 3 for the more local travel, all at the best possible price. With that, for $2,308 I purchased the DJI Mini 4 Pro with one RC2 controller, and an Air 3 fly more combo with the cheapest controller. The idea is to leverage both drones with the use of one updated RC2 controller. Best bang for the buck for someone who travels a lot.
Nice one mate! Great combo. Check out my drone deals and resources here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
I enjoy the Classic for the simple one camera operation......no switching back and forth to a second camera. I do find the 3X zoom very good on the Classic.
That’s good to hear. Thank you for sharing 👌
I had an air 2 up until the weekend just gone and have now been forced to consider an upgrade.
I'm tied between the 2s (i still have 2 of the cross compatible batteries), the air 3, Mavic 3 classic and maybe the Mavic 3.
Im a very keen photographer (landscapes, astrophotography, railways and wildfire) and have a picky eye for detail from a high resolution sony mirrorless camera.
I was content enough with the air 2 but it did struggle in lower light.
The larger sensor of the air2s intrigues as does the hasselblad camera in the classic.
The dual cameras also are appealing as I do enjoy wildlife photography.
Also conscious of pricing so decisions to be made
That is a tough one, I would suggest watching some more videos and considering your options more. I have some drone deals here that might help: linktr.ee/danstubetv
As of right now the drone only package of the mavic 3 classic is 1800 aud, 100% gonna be my next upgrade as i already have a DJI rc controller
Nice one! You’ll love it, check out my drone deals here: linktr.ee/danstubetv

Merci beaucoup pour la vidéo informative frère 🙇🏼♂
I just crashed my drone into a tree recently and was struggling with this decision 😵💫 this video definitely helped me decide. I’m going for the air 3
Awesome! I’m glad that I could help, check out these deals and combos: linktr.ee/danstubetv
@@DansTubeTV will do. Just got the air 3 and it’s amazing 👌🏽
Little bit of bias towards the Air 3 - not as bad as other affiliates - still a very well put together review 👍🏻
I think that the Air 3 is the better drone for most people. The Mavic 3 Classic has the better camera but having 2 cameras with different focal lengths is a major advantage in my opinion.
I meant the bias was apparent throughout, not just about the cameras. For example, at around 8:50 you say the “while the Air 3 is still a respectable…” implying the opposite for the Classic (which is really an insignificant 175g) this type of negative connotation goes on subtly from start to finish in favour of the Air 3. Fair enough, you’re here to make money - but without the bias would still be informative and less manipulative.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to decide between purchasing a new DJI Air 3 or a used DJI Mavic 3 Classic and could use your help.
Here are the details:
**Option 1: DJI Air 3 (new)**
- Price: 1650 Euros
- Includes DJI Care Refresh, potentially extending the warranty up to 3 years
- Brand new with all the latest features and technology
**Option 2: DJI Mavic 3 Classic (used)**
- Price: 1350 Euros
- Includes the Fly More Kit
- Only 2 hours of flight time, so it’s almost like new
- Up to 2 years of warranty (1 year remaining, extended to 2 years if not replaced)
- Also includes DJI Care Refresh
**Important factors for me:**
- **Image quality**: I plan to take a lot of photos and videos, including vertical shots, so high image quality is crucial.
- **Longevity**: I want the drone to perform well for at least the next five years.
- **Usage**: Initially for hobby use as I travel a lot and want to document my experiences. I also consider using it professionally to earn money.
- **Usage environments**: Mainly in wild areas like forests or while riding a motorcycle. Since this will be my first drone, I want a reliable and high-quality drone for the future.
- **Future-proofing**: The Air 3 is the newer drone with the latest technology and better connectivity.
- **Upcoming travel**: I will be traveling a lot in a few months for two months and want to capture those experiences.
I was initially set on getting the Air 3, but now I'm considering if the Mavic 3 Classic might be a better choice. The Mavic 3 Classic has been on the market for a while and is priced similarly to the Air 3. Should I wait for the Mavic 4 instead?
Which drone would you recommend in my situation and why? Are there any important factors I might have overlooked?
Thanks for your help!
That is a hard one! I think that the Air 3 takes the crown for your needs. The 70mm camera on the Air 3 is amazing, battery life is great, vertical video options are great and you get some of the newer tracking features. I have some deals here, including an Air 3 bundle: linktr.ee/danstubetv
😮I own the Mavic Air 2S (pro work) and the Mavic Mini 3 Pro (IG/RUclips).
And I fly recklessly on an Air 2(for fun/photography).
Im trying to decide between the Air 3 or the Mavic 3 Classic.
I enjoy the characteristics of the Air 2S with its better video image quality, control, and speed. Its just an all around great drone. And I love it.
I also enjoy the portability of the Mini 3 pro and the vertical filmming. So I carry that one around mostly and use indoors, plus vertical. Only one battery too. Forces me to practice withthe other two.
I'm particular to better image quality but I also like the 2nd camera on the new air 3. Gives more versatility in creativity.
I guess the question is...
the jump in image quality good enough on the Air 3 from the Air 2S (including on the 2nd camera).
*The vertical is cool too!
OR
is the Classic undeniably better looking and the controlable aperture more pro.
I feel like unless I'm shooting a funded film, I can get away with the Air 3 footage for anything, including professional work (real estate, short films, etc).
Any insights anyone? Feel free to jump in if you own the Classic or Air 3.
I love the Mini size, I love the Air size, but realistically the Mavic 3 isn't really that big either.
Please help.
I'm most likely gonna sell the Air 2. Use the Air 3/Classic for pro work, the mini for IG/RUclips, and fly the Air 2S reckless and for photography.
Hit me.
It is a hard decision. I think that the Air 3 has the edge here, the improved range, RC 2 controller and dual camera system has it for me. I love the 70mm camera on the Air 3. Check out my drone deals, they might help you to decide: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Thanks for sharing! I prefer Mavic 3.
It has a great camera system 📷
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO
No worries at all. Thanks for watching 👀
Mavic 3 classic vs Air 3..get the Air 3 specially if your just posting on instagram and other social media, but if the choice is between the Mavic 3 Pro vs Mavic 3 Classic get the Mavic 3 Pro.
Great comment, thank you for sharing your thoughts 😁
mavic 3 pro have c2 zertification
Mavic 3 classic have c1
🙏🏻
Super video - thank you! That makes our decesion much easier between Air 3 and Mavic Classic for our uses: mainly real estate videos ...!
Great! Glad that I could help, which one did you decide on? I have some epic drone deals linked here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
To be honest, couldn’t make a decision so far. Better camera of Mavic 3 classic, or more flexibility and newer technic of Air 3
..?
It is a hard decision. The adjustable aperture on the Mavic 3 Classic’s larger camera system is a big selling feature as well 👌
@@DansTubeTV that’s absolutely true and exactly the point, I can’t make a decision so easy. But as it is the first drone, I tend to the Air 3 (high range option, much cheaper in a comparable package, dual lens system).
Maybe in one or two years - after having enough praxis in flying - the Mavic will have comparable options …?
Yes, good plan! You will be happy with the Air 3 😍🚀
I don't know which to buy Mavic 3 or the Air 3 , I'm leaning towards the Air 3 , because of the price but I feel like I'll be losing so much with the bigger sensor of the Mavic 3. Help me lol
I honestly think that the extra focal length on the Air 3 is worth the trade off when comparing it to the Mavic 3 Classic. If you’re looking to get the Mavic 3 or Mavic 3 Pro then I would recommend the Mavic 3 Series. I’ve got some awesome drone deals and combos here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Thank you so very much for making this long awaiting video God will bless and protect you more
I appreciate you 🙏
Great video mate!!
Thank you for watching 👀
Time 12:59 / 14:47 Why there are so many overexposures in the frame? On my Air 2s never had overexposures like this.
I don’t know, something was playing up 😞
YOOO CONGRATS FLR 50K!!!
Yay! Thank you 🙏 You are the first person to congratulate me 😍
@@DansTubeTV an honour 🫡
This video helped me make a hard decision. Thank you.
No worries at all, what did you decide on? Connect with me on my other socials: linktr.ee/danstubetv
I went with the fly more Air 3 combo. And included the Freewell split ND filter set. Got very close to going with the Mavic classic but the new Occusync 4 and the telephoto lens steered me toward the air.
Owned quite a few starting with the Phantom 3 advanced when they were new. Then the original Mavic Pro (off brands in between)
So this will be newer technology either way. Thank you.
I have the Mavic Air 2S, + the 2 Pro and they are good and reliable. Both have 1" sensor and I thought both the quality of the photos and videos is great enough. I thought I did not need the Mavic 3 Classic. Nevertheless I bought it and I'm blown away by the quality of photos and video! It is so much better. However I don't like the controller of the classic and air 2s. It does not have the extra antennas like the mavic2 pro that gives me better range in my forested area. So I'm more interested in the new controller with antennas, but probably have to wait until it is compatible with the 3 Classic. Also the waypoint on the 2Pro I found it much better and easier to handle. Actually I never really liked the DJI Fly app even though it has improved quite a bit. The Go4 app has a clearer layout, much better so see what is going on. The Icons on the fly app are so tiny I need a magnifying lens to see them
Great points! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
Not looking for an argument but some paper facts need to be aired(excuse the pun) 100% omnidirectional avoidence, judging from the A3 manual is tenuous, given the 6 sensors and their angles of coverage. Your previous review of the A3 is evidence of the A3 inability to avoid some fine and heavy obstacles. Overseas, in many cases, suggests the same issues with avoidance. In comparison the M3, you and other reported a much better result. Perhaps due to it having 8 sensors and a much wider field of view than the A3. C'mon Dan some better research please.
100%. I want to know how it can see small things directly above it. It can’t imo
Great feedback, thank you for sharing.
There are a couple RUclipsrs who are really disappointed with the Air 3 on active track.
@@ronarmour8909 I too have watched as users in the US and the EU struggle with the A3. The common denominator seems to be that they are all flying in wooded areas, from heavy scrub to tree lined roads and paths. How can a drone carrying such sophisticated flying technology loose the tracking target so easily. What exactly does "Occusync, APAS, and the like actually achieve with the A3. As I understand it the drone does not fly using Virtual Sticks.Which makes flying using waypoints more reliable. It uses a combination of visual and IR sensors coupled with the GNSS system to maintain its location and the targets. Yet, target loss is all too common. One can only hope future upgrades will fix this. I'm staying with my A2S till DJI fix this. OTOH those who only fly in open spaces will be entirely satisfied. As I am banging on so much about this drones shortcomings, I should make it very clear that I am trying desperately to like the A3. It ticks all the boxes, except for the stuff I'm on about.
mavic 3 classic or air 3 which one is the best ?
That is a tough one. I think that the Air 3 slightly gets it with the 70mm lens, it opens up unlimited creative options that you can’t replicate with the Mavic 3 Classic with digital zoom. Check out my drone deals here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Hi, I have the mavic 3 .. should i sell it and get the Air 3 ? What's your opinion?
No don’t mav 3 is much better
I am Trying to get one but too much for me
The Mavic 3 is the better drone. Stick with that one 👌

Air 3 has been awesome
It is such an awesome drone!
Sold my mini OG half year ago , the image qualtiy was pretty bad and broke down if you tried to Edit it at all , ordered the air 3 yesterday and cant wait to see how much more workable it Will be. You can take photos in raw right ?
You will LOVE IT! You can certainly take photos in raw.
@@DansTubeTV tried it out this morning it was amazing , giant Leap from my old mini
Not once did you mention Dynamic range. you kept saying terms like larger system. Your a noob. this is misinformation.
Fair enough 👍
70mm telephoto lens of air 3 v.s 3x optical zoom of Mavic 3 classic. Which is the best or it is the same?
The 70mm is better in my opinion. The lens gives a different perspective and due to the focal length being native to the lens instead of cropped and zoomed, the quality is nicer.
Mavic 3 classic doesnt have optical zoom right ? I thought only digital.
Yes, only digital zoom on the Mavic 3 Classic.
does the 3x optical zoom of mavic 3 classic same of the 70mm of air 3?
No, the 70mm lens is recording at 3x natively. The perspective looks different and the quality is better than using digital zoom.
Bangladesh 🇧🇩♥️♥️🇧🇩🇧🇩
Thanks for watching 👀
7:31 umm… the mavic 3 classic should absolutely dump on the air 3 with photographs. Even the 2s does in good lighting
Absolutely dump is a bit of a stretch. The M3C has the better camera but I would recommend the dual-camera system on the Air 3 to most people.
If theymake the AIR 3 compatible with my RC-PRO I will buy it. And I do not need OCS 4 range OCS 3 would be OK just cut out the 5.1gHz and it should be good to go.
Yeah, let’s hope that they make it compatible. Thanks for watching 👀
It now works with the RC Pro
That is the MAVIC 3 that is compatible not the AIR 3
@@ronarmour8909where did you find this? I can't seem to find it on official sources
I have the classic but will get the A3.

If you do inspections with drone you don't use a mavic 3 classic. Dont be Silly. You have specific drones for that. 🤷🏿♀️
Not always, it depends on the company and if they are doing inspections internally or outsourcing to an external company. I know a few people using the Mavic 3 Classic for inspections within their company.

Thanks for watching 👀
The bigger sensor is the winner here. Nothing more to say. All the talk from other so called drone experperts and reviewers on youtube about 2 sensors and updated technology on the Air 3 is crap, maybe for people that do not grade and only share on tiktok and youtube shorts it would be the better option but nothing more on the professional side.
Yes, it does look like the Air 2S has the edge with the 5.4K. Most people don’t need 5.4K though, and most people’s system can’t play it back.
