Air 3 overview
The DJI Air 3 is a 48 MP 1/1.3-inch camera drone with a built-in lens, announced by DJI in July 2023. It has been followed by the DJI Air 3S; both are still sold.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits flying near trees and buildings, long flights, and colour grading. It is a weaker pick for flying without registering.
No store we track in the United Kingdom lists it today. It is listed in the United States, Europe, Australia and Singapore.
Worth comparing it with the DJI Air 3S, DJI Mini 4 Pro and DJI Mavic 3 Pro.
