Mini 3 vs Pro re: photos

[bburnett15]

I know the mini 3 pro can shoot 48 MP photos, but i see you have to select the 48 MP option. Both the mini 3 and the mini 3 pro have the same size sensor So my question is to those of you who have utilized the 48 MP option: are you seeing a significant upgrade in quality/resolution or is there increased noise that kind of makes it a moot point?

I own a Mini 4 Pro which has the same options, a real 12 MP sensor ( I suppose, I didn't look at the specs but know they are close) which can create artificial 48MP images.

During the day the 48MP will look slightly better, but at night it is better to just shoot at 12MP.
