    It shoots like a pro but can be easily controlled by a rookie. A lot of user friendly features. This may be a beginner drone but it does a lot of the things more expensive drones do. Super light weight. Excited to take it on trips.

    DJI has made this incredibly easy to fly. The remote display is high quality and easy to navigate. The camera shots from above offer great new perspectives for vacation shots and even family gatherings. The drone takes no time to get used to with many of the processes automated. I highly recommend this drone.

    Love the DJI Mini 3. The photos/videos are crystal clear and this drone is so easy to fly. I took off one star for no obstacle avoidance but didn’t feel the need to go to Pro.

    I bought the DJI Mini 3 a little over a month ago and I absolutely love it. This is my first drone so I was pretty intimidated at first but DJI made it simple for me to take my first successful flight. It drove me to get my Part 107 License and now there’s no limit to what I can do with it.

    I recently purchased the DJI Mini 3 from Best Buy, and I am absolutely impressed with the performance of this little drone. As a drone enthusiast, I've had previous experiences with older models, but the Mini 3 has raised my expectations to a whole new level. Compact Design and Portability: The Mini 3 continues DJI's tradition of creating incredibly compact drones. It's amazing how all the power of flight and advanced features fit into such a small device. Portability is unmatched, making it perfect for travel or outdoor adventures. Exceptional Flight Performance: Flight performance is where the DJI Mini 3 truly shines. Stability is remarkable even in moderate wind conditions. The precise positioning system allows for safe and confident flights, while obstacle sensors ensure smooth and collision-free navigation. Camera Quality: The camera quality of the Mini 3 is astounding for a drone of this class. Images are sharp and vibrant, and the ability to record in 4K resolution adds a professional touch to aerial footage. Intelligent capture modes, such as QuickShots, deliver impressive results with minimal effort. Intuitive Controls: The user interface and controls of the DJI Fly app are intuitive and easy to learn, even for beginners. The stable connection between the remote control and the drone provides a smooth and responsive piloting experience. Battery Life: Battery life is quite impressive for a drone of this size. I can get about X minutes of flight time on a single charge, which is more than enough for capturing multiple photos and videos. Conclusion: The DJI Mini 3 has exceeded all my expectations. It's the perfect drone for enthusiasts of all skill levels, offering an incredible combination of portability, performance, and camera quality. If you're looking for a compact and powerful drone, the DJI Mini 3 is the right choice. Pros: Exceptional portability Stable flight performance 4K camera quality Intuitive controls Impressive battery life

    Game changer for drone beginners

    Video quality is amazing. I've never been the greatest at flying other models (all were the connect your phone type), but this here..super easy to operate, both drone and camera! All thanks to the absolutely amazing controller!! Think I might be a professional now. Or not. The durability is also top notch! Flew it into a house and it kept doing it's thing! The range on it is pretty well too- granted I only flew it a block away. The battery quality may be good, but I was flying it under the scorching Texas sun and it drained within 10-15 minutes. So I'd advice purchasing an extra battery if you too like the oven type of weather. This drone definitely creates some strong rotor downwash as well- perfect for cleaning high ceiling fans. Overall, I would highly recommend!

    This is the first drone I’ve ever owned, and I’m obsessed! I’ve had it for almost a year now, and I’m consistently amazed by the footage it captures. It has handled everything I’ve thrown at it, including far distances and fairly high winds (15mph+)! I’m amazed at what it can handle for its size. The remote with the built-in screen is a game changer, especially for beginners. My ONLY complaint is the battery life. I’ve noticed that a full charge can drain fairly quickly depending on the conditions. In some cases, I only get about 10–15 minutes of flight time. That said, it’s not a deal breaker for me—it’s manageable as long as I have a backup battery on hand. The pros far outweigh the cons in my opinion, especially for the price. Highly recommend.

    Great for beginner drone pilots. You will find you NEED additional batteries as the single battery with this will only let you fly for a little while, then you'll need to recharge. The batteries are inexpensive. Be sure to get a memory card for both the controller and the drone. Format them in their respective devices before first use and each time you use them AFTER you've downloaded the photos and videos. This drone is very easy to fly and takes stunning photos and videos. Be sure to get your drone license before you fly. I got mine through Pilot Institute's website. And check your area with the FAA's B4UFly to make sure you are not in controlled airspace. I use Pilot Institute's Air Aware - it is an overlay program for the B4UFly that makes it easier to use.

    I bought this as my first drone. Didn't want something larger that required registration. This mini 3 is below the 250 graml limit. Very easy to learn how to fly. Took some practice to get the camera settings where everything didn't look like it was a "white out". Very happy with the drone.

    The DJI Mini 3 is one of my favorite things i own. It is easy to pilot, the connection & battery life is good, and overall is really worth it. Although, the DJI Mini 3 does not have more advanced features, like obstacle avoidance, or tracking. If you want those, buy the Mini 3 Pro or Mini 4 Pro
