An unboxing video and retail post of the DJI Mini 3 Pro have provided insights about the drone. The official specs and other marketing details of the DJI Mini 3 Pro could be out within days. The latest details come from a YouTube video showing the unboxing of the new drone and its controller.

DJI tweeted a teaser this week for a big announcement on May 10. Remarkably, the YouTube video unboxing of the Mini 3 Pro and the DJI tweet was released on the same day. The video was made by DM Productions and noted that the footage was received from an early recipient of the new drone. The video shows lots of the external features that feature in the new drone. There are several obstacle avoidance sensors in the DJI Mini 3 Pro.

The Controller of the DJI Mini 3 Pro seems to follow the same design as that of the RC Pro. However, it comes with some observable omissions and modifications. There are no visible antennas sticking out in the Mini 3 Pro’s controller, unlike the RC Pro. A few buttons and ports are also absent from the new controller. There could still be some twists in the plot, which was the theme of DJI’s tweet relating to the Mini 3 Pro. It is speculated that the Mini 3 Pro users can switch seamlessly between shooting in landscape and portrait format, which could be interesting. The drone will also be able to shoot vertical content, which is also an added advantage.

A previous leak has stated that the DJI Mini 3 Pro will weigh less than 0.25kg and will cost around $1,000. The camera setup of the Mini 3 Pro is also expected to have substantial improvements over its predecessors. It has a much bigger sensor and the lens offers a wider aperture for its 4K 60fps videos. The DJI Mini 3 Pro is rumored to have a 2,453mAh battery and front-facing avoidance detection capabilities. It will be interesting to see what is left of the details when the official announcement is made on May 10.
