Buying decision

Should you buy it?

Buy the Air 3 if you want versatile framing in a mid-size drone: reviewers praised its two 48MP cameras, wide and medium telephoto, sharp 4K video with HDR and log options, all-around obstacle avoidance, excellent wind resistance, waypoint missions and a generous 46-minute rated flight time. Skip it if you want the biggest sensor, because the Air 2S had a 1-inch sensor and 5.4K video. The lenses have fixed apertures, internal storage is small, and it requires FAA registration.

Best for

Flyers who want two focal lengths and long flights.

Not for

Buyers who want a 1-inch sensor or a sub-250g drone.
