Hi, i was wondering if it would be more worth it to get the Air 2s fly more combo or just the bare air 3 (they're both around 1K USD)
Very helpful Terry. Thank you!
When do you think they'll make the controller compatible with the mini 3 pro?
Your videos are BY FAR the best, most informative, quick, smart...all the above. Thank you for helping me pick out my first drone
Best comparison video from anyone yet. Love your energy man. I got the air2S for now, but air3 defo coming soon. Keep em coming
This video was dope. Really good info! I’ve seen a number of drone comparison videos, and most channels are just mimicking whatever trendy talking points are on UA-cam at the time. The way you break down pros and cons shows how experienced you are with drones. Can’t wait to grab the Air 3!
I appreciate that so much!
Seriously great video! As someone who owns both the Air 2S and the Air 3, I'm now contemplating selling my 2S. I love all the comparisons, especially to the 1 inch stacked sensor on the Sony camera. This is the best detailed video I've seen on this. Would definitely enjoy an Air 3 vs Mini 3 Pro. Anyway you earned a subscription from me!
Your low light video comparison sold me on the air 3!
Same here but also the amazing battery life 04 transmission feature proof drone
Great review and thanks for the Lightcut info as well. Upgraded from the Air 2S to the Air 3 for all of the reasons stated. Excellent video!!
Love your content , you put it forward so easy that I get what I need , again thanks
Great Video!! Best air 3 comparison I’ve seen! Thanks!
Fabulous review. Thorough. Answered all my questions. Just what I needed. Thank you
Very helpful comparison bro. Keep up the good work.
Hey, thanks for a great video. Planning on updating my drone and was gonna choose between the Air 2S, Air 3, and mini 4 pro. I think I can now forget about the Air 2 - mostly for the night mode on the others. Also great to see videos in this post of the city I was born and raised in!
You can also plug in a usb cable WHILE THE Air 3 IS OFF, and download your images!
I'm Trying To Hold Out For The Air 3s....But after watching this it makes it Even harder. Thanks for video great info!

Never saw a comparison of the Air 2S 20 Megapixel photo to Air 3 48 Megapixel. The Air2S was clearly better 20 Megapixel vs. the Air 3 12 Megapixel. Thanks for your terrific content.
Been saying this in so many of the sponsored comment videos because they mostly left pictures out of it and literally no replies.
G’day from Australia, beaut video Terry, well done mate. Still think I will hang on to my Air 2 S for the time being.
Great Video! Thanks for in depth comparison of the Air 3 and the Air 2S!
If you have the Air 2 I’d upgrade, if you have the Air 2s flip a coin 😅 and if you have the Mini series get a Air 3. Great video boss man!
Great review as always! Once the Air 3s drops, I'll have to make the hard decision of choosing between that and the Pro 3.
Great review lots of information, i subbed
Great review, i got all the info i need to make a decision. Thank you.
Great information 💪🏾
Just to be clear, have you received the Air3 for free from DJI?
He would have to state if he did.
Seems like he received it for free
Hey man, just wanted to pop in and say a quick THANK YOU for all the good videos and inspiration the last year - discovered you through one of Peter Lindgrens videos, the first one he mentioned you in, happy accident, been following your channel since, and thanks to all the inspirational videos from you, Peter and some of the others I follow I *finally* finished my first video a couple of days ago and actually presses publish, after almost two years of starting and stopping and starting again. So just wanted to say a big THANK YOU, your videos *do* make a difference (despite what comment svin might say), and you have now created another youtuber, so thank you and have a wonderfull day :)
I appreciate that so much!!
Great video!!! I don't have an Air 2s but have an Air 2 and a Mini 3 and I am making the jump to the Air 3.
I have owned all the Air series drones and thought they could not better the Air 2s and was blown away with the 1 inch sensor and had feelings about the smaller sensor like many people. I sold my Air 2s when I bought the Mavic 3 Classic and ordered the Air 3 straight after the DJI launch. Apart from the lower resolution from 5k to 4k the quality is fantastic , because of rules in the uk the signal strength has been reduced but Ive never lost signal but the signal bars went from white to orange and brought the drone back as it was my first flight. It is a great drone to combine forces withe Mavic 3 Classic. good review Bro.
Lovely video. Thanks!
Those intro’s and little bits here and there are just getting better and better - looks like you’re having loads of fun making those :) Audio might feel really tricky to understand at first, until you realize it’s basically the same as video: get a strong signal/good lighting, manipulate it to put focus on certain aspects of the audio/video, just different tools doing the same :)
I appreciate that so much!
Thank you Terry. Great review.
As of yesterday evening, DJI released an update for the RC Pro for compatibility with the Air 3!!!. Great video, new sub.
Great video. Thanks.
well done!! Extremely informative....
Great review
Explained perfectly Thank you for my justification of upgrading from A2s to A3
Well done
Wow, when you showed the low light shots of the Air 3 vs. Air 2S! You could really tell hope much more light the Air 3 sensor is gathering and so much cleaner!
I was skeptical about the 48Mb photo mode on the Air 3, but you again showed a fantastic example on how the Air 3 is better! The 40 minute flight time would be wonderful when taking hyperlapses ❤
Thank you so much for going so in depth on the Air 3! I will definitely get the Air 3 as a upgrade from my Air 2S. But I would love to save $$$$ and get the Mavic 3 Pro!
I love how your Air@ has scratches on the rotor..nice touch of reality.
Great review, Sir!I just bought a boxed drone only Air2s to upgrade (for $550) from my Air2 I've had since release. Honestly, the Air 3 looks so bulky, drone and batteries. Most of all, I like the Air2s's wide 22mm FOV. It just looks fantastic. I like that it has he forced simplicity of a single camera. Had the Air 3 been of the same form factor as the Air 2 and 2s, I would have jumped on it. Wathing Harmen Hoek videos, i am inspired by the portability. And, about to be sailing in Croatia, I am not as worried about crashing the Air 2s into water as I woud be the Air 3.
Alway love new @TerryWarfield videos. Fan-freaking-tastic infotainment.
Bravo!
Waiting for the A3s or a mavic 4 pro just imaging stock back lit sensor in a 1 inch or a 4 third sensor its worth the wait

Just subbed your channel! Great content. Northern Cali? I'm out here in the CV!
very fine review TW!
Great review! Definitely, the air 3 is an upgrade over the air 2S, in pretty much every way. That being said, camera is king and, while the air 3 is better, I don’t think that difference is that significant for me.
I shoot almost everything in 5.4K so I can reframe if I need in post. For me, I would probably rather go Mavic 3Pro, for that for that 4/3 sensor, and all the other bells and whistles that the air 3 got from it.
Great comparison and appreciate the time you put into your videos!
Valid! 5.4k is a big deal for a lot of people for SURE! That’s why I mentioned it so many times
I changed air3 from air2s. I'm very satisfied so I'm using it well especially telephoto lens and longer flight time
I currently use the Air 2S and the crop in 4k60, plus locked out intelligent flight modes in 4k60 is kind of a dealbreaker for me at this point. Does the Air 3 have a crop and are you able to use flight modes like orbital, active track in 4k60?
Amazing 👍👍👍👍
I think you are spot on with your assessment. I didn't get the Air 2s, I had the Air 2 though. The only thing I've noticed, the Air 3 is way more sensitive on the stick input. Way easy to overshoot the shot. But it is a beast, that is for sure!! Excellent comparison!!
You can adjust sensitivity in settings, should not be a problem as you indicated.
@@photographyinflight4183 that you can as I’ve found plunking around in the settings. Much smoother now. Thanks!!
Thats was a realy good review.... but very very fast...
From the Netherlands and my English is near perfect, but man .. do you go fast...
Anyhow, your review made the differents for me and i changed my mind from Air 2s to air 3.
Thanks alot :)
I’m literally subscribed to every drone reviewer out there. I am literally going to cancel all of them and quit wasting my time. All I need is you brother. Your able to put 258 gb on a 64 gb chip. Dang good. Many thanks
Just Got the air 2s used for 500. Works perfect. I couldn't pass a deal like this. Great vid.
That is a DEAL! Congrats!!

Another important thing to discuss will dji release the sdk for air3 ? Its released for air 2s that gives some advantages if you want for example 3d mapping.
I would consider getting the air 3, but having trouble getting past the lack of autonomous flying with drone deploy, or Map Pilot Pro type software. Dji wanting you to get there enterprise series!
Upgraded from air2s to air3 . Only issues I’ve found is the fly more combo setup is more bulky than the old air 2s combo plus its missing a charging block!
Planning to buy Air 2s now.....is it will be alright?
Air 3 also has a heat sink with a built in fan. I live in alabama and july is so hot here u almost cant fly past noon till the sun goes down with most drones.
Sickyyyy
Bro 😎 I need ur view on this I want to know which of these drones can best handle surveying
Thank you for your comparison. Which one is quieter?
Air 3
Hi Terry. On my Air 2s when I am doing video and turning different directions at times I pickup my blades on the left or right side that shows up on my video. Is this issue solved with the Air 3?
Air 3 is 24mm vs air2s 22mm. You never see the props in the air 3 shots
Case closed…The Air 3 cameras definitely look better.
Wow…this video has tons of valuable insights! Thx! 👊🏽
I honestly think the AIR2s wins in picture quality. The image from the AIR 3 looks so blocky and sharpened - kinda reminds me of the look the og Mavic had - you can especially see that on the rocks or the trees.
Quite fair comparison, but you are not mentioning with low light (but still day), 48Mp mode in Air3 is adding significant noise to the pictures and creating artifacts and wrong colors. IMHO Air2s for photos is still preferable overall apart from night shooting.
Air 3 in good light with 48 mp are better than air 2s. Air 3 low light and night mode in 12 mp is better than Air 2s. The only way the Air 2s would be better is if you choose 12mp during strong light vs the Air 2s in strong light.
I prepared dji air 3 when it comes to camera is the best and photography and videography is so very fascinating🙏❤️👍
Is the camera in the air 3 the same as the action 4?
I'm curious from a filmmaker perspective in a niche category, how do the two compare when shooting 10-bit dlog/hlg in terms of how much you can pull and manipulate in post without losing information (such as thru Davinci Resolve), as opposed to the pre-baked quality out of the drone?
From surveying n mapping perspective which of these two drone can best handle surviving
@@kostouch5496 Air 3 doesn't have an SDK released by DJI yet, so presently you can't use mapping/etc apps or any third party apps with it until DJI does.
The Air 2S can use multiple options including dronelink and dronedeploy.
The decision for me was actually quite easy. I had (emphasis on had) an Air 2S for about a year until I lost mine on vacation last year. I made a catastrophic mistake totally my fault and crashed into a Georgia pine on the side of a mountain. I couldn’t even get to the spot where it crashed. To this day I am not sure if it fell or it’s still stuck in that pine tree. So since I just got my tax return I decided to get an Air 3 instead of just replacing my Air 2S. I liked the idea of better transmission for longer distances, the 3X optical camera, more battery life, and especially 360 obstacle avoidance. The Air 2S was a great drone and is now a much cheaper option if price is your main concern. But for me I’m happy with my decision to upgrade to an Air 3.
Since the Air 2S is compatible with the RC Pro controller, I'm not upgrading any time soon. Plus its smaller, and it shoots 5.4K video, which is what I do with a drone , shoot video. Plus the RC Pro has a 1000 nit screen. I rather have the 1000 nit screen than, two cameras.
Shout-out to that synthwave bgm 💪
Haha
Today just got air 2 s with fly more pack and rc pro controller, clouds of extras in stealth propellers and hard case, 11 charge cycles per battery and all that for £675 only
Thank you for sharing your video!!! I have air 2S and I think I’m going to upgrade. Fly safe and keep the videos coming..
fool
I pick up a brand new air 2s (flymore), one charge on all 3 batteries for 450.00 back in Feb.
1/1.3" is .769........3", or a little over 3/4" of an inch. I hear people call it 1/3" sensor all the time. It's fairly close in size to the Air 3 sensor, which explains the performance.
I own 5 DJI drones. I love my AIR 2s, that being said, I just ordered the AIR 3 fly more combo with regular controller, since I own a Mini 4 Pro with RC 2 Controller, & can use the RC 2, on both my Mini 4 Pro & AIR 3. DJI did an update, & you can now use the RC Controller, with the AIR 2s. I also bought the Integra goggles and Motion 2 Combo for FPV flying, with my Mini 3 Pro, Mini 4 Pro, & AIR 3 . DJI hands down, makes the best consumer drones. I wish Autel wasn't getting out of the consumer drone market, because they were catching up to DJI.
They had a lot of work to do on the software side
RC Pro is obsolete now. It’s O3 tech and the next gen is O4. I own this remote and had to buy the new RC2. Frustrating not to mention the new goggles v2 and motion control 2 to fly Air 3 with.
You are a goat. i am wondering between mavic 3 classic and air 3 but i think i will go for air 3 from my air 2. fu... it . i take it
Honestly, when it comes to camera theres nothing about the air 3 that takes it besides the low light imaging.
The aircraft is better and longer lasting and all that so that's a big advantage but when you can pick up an air 2s for $500-$800 if money is an issue id definitely go for the 2s
Air 2s is all the drone most people would need. It's been rock solid.

@@tedgayer336copy past copy past 😂
This was the best comparison video I've seen yet. You killed it. Thank you
Dji should have produced the 2S with same type of camera it has, but with electronic variable aperture. Also with a battery durability of 45 min. And ocusync 4. It is basically the only middle size drone, and that is attractive.
O4 transmission, 70mm camera, no question, Air 3 all day.
Do you have any evidence the Air3 sensor is different from the Mini3Pro one? It is not reported anywhere in the datasheet.
Found the answer from another reviewer (DC Rainmaker) with official slides from DJI.
Great detailed review and comparison of the DJI Air 2S and the newest DJI Air 3, mate! I really needed to hear that the tracking features and mastershots are still working even on 4K/60. Thanks for including that! You just forgot to include the battery pack feature where if you already used the three of them, the batteries can intelligently transfer their battery power to the one that has the most power left in it and be usable again for another flight. Cheers Terry!
There is something special about the color science on the Air 2S for me. Haven’t tried the Air 3 yet, but i upgraded to the Mavic 3 and colors are awful, both in photo and video
The Mavic 3 colors are awful? Not trying to be funny but there has got to be something wrong somewhere in your workflow. The Mavic 3 colors especially out of the Main camera are breathtaking! I’ve had them all, Mavic 3 wins hands down for me when it comes to color reproduction and image quality
I fly the Air2S at this moment. Next year the new EU rules will applied to drones and that might be the moment to go for the Air 3(S
I was on the fence waiting for the C1 retro marking for the Air2s.
Since I clearly understood it will never arrive I bought the Air3 and it has been a great choice.
Maybe in a year we will see an Air3s, but in one year I can fly more than 1000 km on my drone, so if needed I'll upgrade again.
Around the time I got my 2S the 3 was not available yet. Had I know I had waited. No regrets. I don't fly above people and buildings.
C1 will be there end of January for the Air 2s
Good morning! Based on the presentation that you gave on the DJI Air 3, I anticipate purchasing it within the next week or so. You did an outstanding job articulating what Air 3 can and cannot do. I always enjoy your expertise without all of the unnecessary hype. The drone has what I believe will make some amazing adventures for me along with my Mini 3 Pro. Unrelated to the drone, it is just so nice to hear commentary without the cussing and filthy language. I appreciate that you recognize that you have viewers that can understand what you say without the expletives. Keep it up.
Air 3 👌
My opinion : on a 4k TV screen , image quality of the air 2 S will be better
Air 2s is 799 now
Better than the mavic 2 pro?
In most ways, yes. The m2p has an adjustable aperture which is HUGE
I totally disagree. The first Air3 I sent back as there was heaps of noise in the raw images. And chromatic aberration is off the scale. Worst with 48meg images. Before the replacement drone came I had a call from DJI. They informed me that they were having problems with images in raw. Now if your not knowing what raw is Google it. DJI did say they are working on it and hope to have it fixed. There are lots of other Photographers like myself who are peed off with the results they are getting. I ended up purchasing Topaz denoise just to get rid of the noise. Let me remind you that this happens with still images. I noticed your test was conducted in jpeg. Jpeg, the drone will apply its own noise reduction, but the dynamic range is a lot less. So I hope you do a test with raw images and see for yourself the difference. Otherwise, it's a great video.
Could you share the link to download live cutter app
Just search it up on your phone’s market lol.
Another reviewer, pilot institute, showed how the air3 12mp photos are better in low light and the 48 mp photos are better in good light. Clearly the Air 3 48mp are better than the Air 2s.
DJI Air 2s is now $799 for those that were on the fence..Thinking about making that purchase 🤪

No air 3 vs standard m3
what about photos?
There are a bunch of photo samples in the video
stripes look blue here
Air 2 got smaller sensor than air 2s and now air 3 got smaller sensor than upcoming air 3s or air 3 pro.
A-3 A-3 A-3!!!!!
The Air 2S is 2.5 year old technology. Of course the Air 3 is better in EVERY way. It's the Cadillac of drones I think. For it's money
Air2s has SDK 🎉
