Although battery life has not been extensively leaked, an apparent 30-minute flight time is in line with its predecessor, the DJI Air 2S. While the rumored price of around 7,500 yuan (approximately $1,060 / £860 / AU$1,625) might be higher than previous models, the DJI Air 3 could still be seen as the ideal choice for those seeking a compact, all-round drone.
The DJI Air 2S received widespread acclaim upon its release in April 2021, earning a five-star review and securing a top spot in the best drones list. However, subsequent releases such as the DJI Mini 3 Pro and the improved DJI Mavic 3 have pushed it down the rankings. If the DJI Air 3 incorporates an additional telephoto lens along with other enhancements like Ocusync 3.0 Plus transmission and improved high frame-rate video options, it could potentially reclaim its position as the leading drone in the market.
