I picked up a Mavic Pro when they first dropped years ago, but had to leave it behind when I moved back from Australia. A year later I finally had it shipped to me, but the batteries didn’t survive that long break. Can’t get them to charge at all now.
So yeah, I’m in the market for a new drone. I don’t really want to drop a huge amount on the Mavic 3, so I’m looking at something in the middle ground like the Mini 3 Fly More Combo or maybe the Mini 4K Fly More Combo. I’ve read through this forum and it seems like the Mini 3 is better overall than the 4K version, but wondering if that’s the best choice for someone like me who mostly takes photos and does a few video clips here and there.
There’s just so many different models and prices now, I’m really stuck figuring out what gives the best value for what I need.

I recently went from the original Mavic Pro to the Mini 4 Pro. I mostly shoot photos too, and I’ve been super happy with the switch.
I’ve had my eye on the Mini 4 Pro too, but the price is a little out of reach right now… I’ll have to really weigh it up. It does seem like the best overall pick though.
Honestly, none of the Minis are a true upgrade over the original Mavic Pro if you’re looking at specs alone. But depends what you value—portability vs power.
