DJI has already bowled us over this year with the launch of the DJI Mini 3 Pro, but it has another big launch planned for today – and the rumors suggest we could see a new DJI Mavic 3 Classic drone.
The intriguingly-named ‘Explore Vivid’ is scheduled to kick off today at 9am EDT / 1pm GMT, which works out as 12am AEDT on November 3. And you’ll be able to tune in on DJI’s official YouTube channel.
So what exactly are expecting to see? The latest leaks suggest a cheaper version of DJI’s flagship consumer drone called DJI Mavic 3 Classic. And the event’s teaser image certainly seems to back that up, showing the signature Hasselblad camera that appears on the current DJI Mavic 3.
But there are a lot of unanswered questions. For starters, DJI’s teaser doesn’t actually show a drone, which has led some to speculate (or perhaps hope) that we’ll instead see a sequel to the DJI Pocket 2, a pocket vlogging camera.
The leaks so far suggest otherwise, but will the rumored lack of a telephoto lens on the DJI Mavic 3 Classic be the only difference from the current Mavic 3, which we rate as one of the best drones you can buy? And could DJI have some extra surprises up its sleeve?
Join us as we count down to what could be a massive launch for fans of aerial photography and videography…
Hello, I’m Mark (TechRadar’s Cameras editor) and I’ll be your co-pilot for today’s big DJI launch. I’ve covered and tested DJI drones for years going all the way back to the original DJI Spark in 2017, so I’m looking forward to seeing exactly what lands today.
The event’s ‘Explore Vivid’ doesn’t give away a huge amount, but that Hasselblad camera in the teaser poster does point towards a new drone, like the rumored DJI Mavic 3 Classic. So if you’re in the market for a new flying camera (or are just interested in where they’re gliding to next), pull up a seat and join us as we count down to take-off.
