Why would the newer and cheaper one be worse? Doesn’t really make sense to me.
I was wondering the same. Some folks here are acting like jerks, though. I ended up buying a used Magic 3 Pro Cine since it was cheaper than new and I didn’t have to deal with tax. The Pro 4’s cool feature is the rotating camera for vertical shots—great for social media—but that’s not always necessary.

The barrel rolls with that camera are going to look amazing though.

Yeah, the barrel rolls are gonna be insane for sure.
If you’re not caught up in the hype, the Mavic 3 Pro is still a beast. It can do about 90% of what the Mavic 4 Pro does, and that’s more than enough for most people’s skill levels.

Weird how they’re almost the same price though.
@Penn
I’d say avoid buying a brand-new M3 Pro unless you find a big discount or a good used one. If you’re paying full price, might as well get the M4 Pro instead.
@Penn
Yeah, it’s probably because they’re still making them or recently stopped. They had a big stock since it was their top drone for a while. The M4P is just replacing it, not jumping a tier. Prices for the M3 will probably drop soon as it gets phased out for the ‘prosumer’ group.
It’s cheaper and it’s newer. Kinda feels like a no-brainer to me.
Mavic 4 for sure. But if you’re after the best bang for your buck, look at the AIR 3S 
Just a heads up—the Mavic 4 Pro isn’t going to be sold in the US.
Totally depends on what you need.
Do you need Apple ProRes?
If yes, go for the CINE version.
If not, the 4 might make more sense.
Honestly, if you’re asking this kind of question, both options are probably way more than you actually need.

That’s a pretty rude take for what was just a simple question. They’re just looking for opinions.
@Zion
Yeah but if you check OP’s post history, it’s kinda all over the place. Could be trolling or just really young.
If this was any other forum, I’d think this was some kind of joke post lol.
