Ipad mini 2 vs 3 vs 4? Please help

[black_magic100]

First of all, I have gone through several posts on this topic, but I am still stuck on which one to buy. I am an android guy so all it would really be is a drone screen and maybe to watch a few movies on a plane or something here and there. It seems like the biggest difference between the 2 and 4 is the screen brightness which worries me. One thing I have not seen alot about is the mini 3 vs 4. Can you guys please recommend me specifically which model to buy as I don't want to make a mistake. Again, screen brightness really worries me.

When comparing the iPad Mini 2/3 to the iPad Mini 4, you'll notice the iPad Mini 4 is brighter, lighter, a little bit thinner, faster, and has an anti-reflective coating on the screen. Here's a video that digs into the differences:

When outdoors, I don't think either is bright enough to clearly see in direct sunlight. If you must fly in direct sunlight, you're probably going to want to fly in a shaded area or attach some kind of sun shade to block the sun from hitting the screen.

If a device that works in direct sunlight is a must-have, then you might want to look into the DJI CrystalSky. It's certainly not cheap by any means, but it's super bright.

Always wear a black shirt /coat or hoodie, it helps big time to see the screen when its bright out. The anti glare screen helps too.
