Differences between the different DJI minis

Questions & Answers
1

I am looking into buying my first drone. I am confused by all the various DJI mini versions. I have been Googling but am going round in circles.
I think for me the main contenders are the DJI mini 2, the DJI mini 2 SE and the DJI mini 3. It seems to me that mini 2 SE is cheaper and older than the mini 2? The mini 3 has collision detection whereas the mini 2 and 2 SE do not?

I will definitely go for the fly more version of whichever model I choose.

I would be grateful for advice or links about the differences between the models esp the mini 2 and the mini 2SE.

Thank you

This page, Consumer Drones Comparison - Compare Mavic Series and Other Consumer Drones - DJI, enables you to select models of interest and see their specs side by side.

And DPR did a comparison last year, DJI's Mini, Mini 2, Mini 3 or Mini 3 Pro – which lightweight drone is right for you?: Digital Photography Review.

And there will be other suggestions too!

The links above will help, but the SE is newer (they did similar with the original mini SE). The SE has Less resolution on the camera mainly. From the 1 series to the 2 series the signal is far better (why I upgraded). The 3 is a great drone, but I have a 2 and no desire to upgrade. Some.good deals second hand too for the mini 2. And yes you’ll want the fly more whichever you get!
