DJI Mic 3 First Hands-On Review
As a DJI Mic 2 user, my first impression of the Mic 3 was, “It feels more like a perfect, mature evolution than a simple feature iteration.
1. Battery ComponentsDJI Mic 3 Drone Battery
The system consists of three parts: two transmitters (TX) with built-in batteries. One receiver (RX) with built-in batteries. One charging case with built-in batteries, used to charge and store both the transmitter and receiver.
2. Standalone Battery Life (fully charged without returning to the charging case)
Transmitter (TX): Up to 6 hours.
Receiver (RX):DJI Mic 3 Drone Battery
Up to 6 hours.
Please note: These are official lab results. Actual battery life will vary depending on usage settings. For example, enabling the transmitter’s “Intelligent Noise Reduction” feature increases power consumption and may reduceDJI Mic 3 Batterylife to approximately 5 hours.
3. Overall Battery Life (Used with Charging Case)
Recharge the depleted transmitter and receiver by placing them back into the fully charged charging case. The total battery life of the entire system is astonishing:A total of approximately 18 hours.
This means that even if you’re shooting intensively all day, you’ll rarely need to search for a power source; the charging case is always ready to keep your devices powered up.
Experience: Once activated with a single button, the system significantly reduces constant ambient noise (such as air conditioners, fans, and street background noise), making vocals stand out more clearly. This is like a high-quality software noise reduction plug-in, a lifesaver for those recording in noisy environments or those who prefer to avoid post-processing.
4. DJI Mic 3 Drone BatteryCharging Time
Charging the transmitter/receiver using the charging case:
A full charge takes approximately 1.5 hours.
Charging the charging case:
A full charge takes approximately 2 hours using the included USB-C cable.DJI Mic 3 Drone BatteryHighlights and Notes
Easy Battery Life, Shoot as You Want:
For most shooting scenarios (such as daily vlogging, interviews, and event recording), 6 hours of standalone battery life is more than sufficient. Simply return the device to the charging case between shots for automatic charging and shutdown, returning it to a full charge the next time you remove it. This truly provides a seamless “pick up and use, put down and charge” experience.
Newly Designed Receiver for Elegant Direct Plug-In:
Experience: The receiver is no longer a “block” design, but a slimmer “clip” design. It features foldable USB-C and Lightning connectors, allowing it to plug directly into phones and tablets without cables, creating a truly “all-in-one” connection. This significantly reduces bulk and eliminates the problem of loose and tangled cables. It also retains a 3.5mm audio jack and USB-C port for camera connection and charging.
Improved Sound Quality and Audio Recording Performance:
Experience: The built-in microphone’s sound quality is already excellent (32-bit floating-point recording ensures a wide dynamic range and prevents clipping). The Mic 3 features further optimized internal structure and algorithms, resulting in even richer, clearer sound. A new “Voice Priority” mode intelligently focuses on the vocals, reducing ambient noise, bringing them closer and clearer during recording.
Charging Case andDJI Mic 3 Drone Battery Life:
Experience: The charging case features a more refined design and a better feel. Simply place the entire system in the case for both charging and storage, making it incredibly convenient. A single charge is officially claimed to last up to 7 hours.DJI Mic 3 Drone Battery
Total battery life with the charging case reaches 21 hours, more than enough for a full day of intense filming.
