Which drone should a DJI Mavic 2 Pro owner upgrade to?

[onur53]

I’ve been using the Mavic 2 Pro for hobby purposes for 5 years, but now I want to upgrade to a new drone. I’m torn between the DJI Air 3S and the Mavic 4 Pro. Which one do you think I should choose? If I go with the Air 3S, will I regret not getting the Mavic 4 Pro? I’m very interested in new technologies

There's a few comparison videos on YouTube, well worth a watch, but the overall consensus was to go for the Mavic 4 Pro, but it's very expensive, good luck

If you get the Mavic 4 Pro, you certainly won't regret not buying the Air 3S! LOL!
The Mavic 4 Pro runs circles around the Air 3S, unless you are married to the 24mm field of view.

I had the Air 3S before I replaced it with the Mavic Pro 4. Both of these drone are very good drones but the M4P is going to cost you a lot more money overall especially if you add RC Pro 2 controller. There is no question that the M4P is the better drone because of having three lenses to use and if you are into photography this is the drone to buy. The RC Pro 2 is a must have as well a the 240W charger. Good luck with your purchase of a new DJI drone.

You've not mentioned why you want to upgrade to a new drone which may affect the answers.

Since still photography is the main use of my drone if I was upgrading from my Mavic 2 Pro I'd go for either the Mavic 3 Pro (which is C1 in Europe, the Mavic 4 isn't) since they have the larger sensor size.

I think that is a question for your checking account. I bought the Air 3s as my first drone but I was certainly considering the Mavic 4 Pro but it’s not available in the US. I love technology as well so I vote for the M4P with RC 2 Pro.

I've had a Mavic 2 Pro for 6 years.Really satisfied with the stills.The temptation for me is longer flight time and better night photography.If you can swing it the Mavic 4 sounds great with all its advancements.The Mavic 3 will give you some enhancements over the Mavic 2 so money is the deciding factor.

yeah...it has become pretty expensive to upgrade to the 'top of the line'

I'm not planning on it yet because I'm happy with my Mavic 3 and Mini 3 Pro

but if I did go for the Mavic 4 Pro, I'd definitely spring for RC Pro 2 over the RC Pro, even though it adds $1100. In for a penny...right?

but I still wonder about the Mavic 4 vs the Matrice 4E. For a similar Combo the Matrice is $1000 more, but it does have that RC Plus 2 E controller and there are a lot of features on that RC. You also get 1 year of Care Enterprise Plus for that extra grand.
