Buying decision

Should you buy it?

Buy the Mavic 3 if you find one at a good price and want a big-sensor drone: reviewers praised its excellent Four Thirds camera, adjustable aperture, 5.1K and 4K/120 video, long battery life, improved safety features and a handy telephoto backup. Skip it if you'll rely on the zoom, because the telephoto camera has a disappointing sensor and digital zoom looks soft. The base model has only 8GB of storage, and newer Mavics improved on it.

Best for

Photographers who want a big sensor at a used or discounted price.

Not for

Anyone who relies on long zoom.
