so ive been going back and forth on this for like two months now and i cant make up my mind. currently flying a mini 2 and looking to upgrade, mostly for the better low light performance since i shoot a lot of golden hour stuff and sometimes push into blue hour which the mini 2 just completely falls apart at.

the nano+ keeps coming up and the 1/1.28 sensor sounds great on paper but i dont know anyone locally who has one. everything i find online is either a youtube sponsored review or someone who clearly just got it and hasnt really put it through its paces. the obstacle avoidance on the mini 3 pro is probably more practical for where i fly (lots of trees, coastal areas) but the price difference is pretty significant.

anyone here actually own or have owned the nano+ and can give me a real world take? specifically curious about the image quality in low light and also how the autel sky app holds up compared to DJI fly because that part worries me a little

had a nano+ for about 8 months before i sold it, and honestly the low light is genuinely good for the size ? like surprisingly so. shot some dawn stuff over the harbor near me and the noise was way more manageable than i expected. that said the autel app at the time was... fine? it worked but it felt a bit clunky compared to DJI fly, like the UI needed another round of polish. they've pushed updates since i had it so maybe its better now.

the thing that got me wasnt the image quality, it was the obstacle avoidance being kind of inconsistent in dense tree areas. it would see some things and then completely miss others and that made me nervous. if you're flying coastal with open sightlines its probably less of an issue but in trees i was always a bit on edge with it. mini 3 pro is just more confidence-inspiring in that regard in my experience. tough call though honestly.

not exactly answering your question but i picked up a nano+ last spring as my first real drone and coming from zero experience i thought the app was fine lol. maybe if youre used to DJI fly it feels different but i didnt have anything to compare it to and it all made sense to me pretty quick. image quality has genuinely impressed people when i show them footage so theres that
