DJI Mic 3 Leaked - Price, New Features, and DJI Mic 3 vs Mic 2 Comparison

The DJI Mic 3 official announcement is on August 28, 2025, 8:00 a.m. EDT, but just before that, we have all the possible details and images of the upcoming microphone. DJI Mic 3 is the next-generation wireless microphone from DJI. The new generation of microphones offers all the possible pro-grade features that a videographer, professional content creator, or cinematographer may desire. Even though it is useful for drone operators. Now, here in this post we are going to explain the features also, and we are going to compare it with the DJI Mic 2, and just before that, let’s discuss the price of the upcoming DJI Mic 3.

DJI Mic 3 Price

From the available set of information we have, the price of the DJI Mic 3 has been priced very competitively. The complete kit that includes two transmitters inside the box, one receiver, and a charging case — alongside that, you will also have windscreen adapters and magnetic clips to hold them perfectly even if you are wearing some clothes — all these are listed at $309 in the US. This is slightly below the current street price of the already available DJI Mic 2 kit, which sits around approximately $314 on platforms like Amazon.com. Now let’s see the additional set of accessories that includes:

DJI Mic 3 Complete Kit (2 transmitters, 1 receiver, charging case, windscreen adapters, magnetic clips) – $309

What’s New Inside the DJI Mic 3

The new DJI Mic 3 introduces revolutionary upgrades. Now it has the blended portability of the DJI Mic Mini with a professional set of custom-tailored features, and despite all these new enhancements inside the Mic 3, the price point remains almost the same — that’s really a great thing. Now it has been teased with a tagline, “Performance That Speaks.” It offers an enhanced audio processing unit inside it. At the very same time, it also has multi-device support. So let’s have a look at the key features of the DJI Mic:

Multi-Channel Support: You can synchronise up to 4 transmitters to record simultaneously, and these 4 transmitters can be synchronised with 8 receivers. This makes it ideal for multi-camera setups or large-scale productions like interviews or events.
Extended Transmission Range: A 400-meter (1,312 feet) range with dual-band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) auto-switching ensures reliable performance in RF-heavy environments.
Advanced Audio Processing: 32-bit floating-point recording for clip-proof dynamic range, adaptive gain control to balance fluctuating sound levels, dual-level noise reduction for cleaner audio, and timecode synchronisation for seamless video-audio alignment in post-production.
Battery and Design Improvements: The charging case provides up to 28 hours of total runtime, with each transmitter offering 14 hours of onboard recording. Transmitters are compact (14 x 28 x 29 mm, 11.7 g), with physical buttons and glowing green LEDs. The receiver has a 1.1-inch AMOLED touchscreen with rotary controls for intuitive operation.
Additional Features: Omnidirectional pickup, 120 dB max SPL handling, and magnetic mounting options for discreet placement.

So, finally, you know all the major features of the upcoming DJI Mic 3. Let me know which one is your favourite. Let’s compare the DJI Mic 3 versus the DJI Mic 2 and find out the major differences between the two.

DJI Mic 3 versus the DJI Mic 2

Now DJI Mic 3 is actually built on the rock-solid foundation of the DJI Mic 2, which already offers 32-bit float recording and intelligent noise cancelling. However, Mic 3 also offers pro-level scalability and endurance. Let’s explore the major differences between the two in the comparison below:

Feature	DJI Mic 3	DJI Mic 2	Key Improvement in Mic 3
Transmitters Supported	Up to 4 TX	Up to 2 TX	Ideal for multi-person or complex shoots.
Receivers Supported	Up to 8 RX	1 RX (standard)	Syncs audio to multiple cameras easily.
Transmission Range	400 m (dual-band 2.4/5 GHz)	250 m (2.4 GHz only)	60% longer range with better anti-interference.
Battery Life (with Case)	Up to 28 hours	Up to 18 hours	~55% more runtime for extended sessions.
Onboard Recording	14 hours per TX (32-bit float)	14 hours (24-bit) or 11 hours (32-bit)	Consistent clip-proof recording.
Noise Reduction	Dual-level + adaptive gain	Intelligent noise canceling	More precise filtering and auto-balancing.
Timecode Sync	Yes	No	Streamlines video-audio alignment in post.
Receiver Display	1.1-inch AMOLED touchscreen + rotary	OLED touchscreen	Enhanced controls and visibility.
Transmitter Size/Weight	14 x 28 x 29 mm, 11.7 g	46 x 31 x 22 mm, 28 g	~60% lighter and smaller, but likely no external mic input.
Price (Kit)	$309	~$314 (current)	Slightly more affordable.

As you can clearly see, the Mic 3 is custom-tailored for professional workflows. Now, even for drone pilots or filmmakers, if you need multi-channel audio over long distances, this one is efficient for you. However, a small thing that disappoints is apparently the lack of a 3.5 mm input for the external mic. The DJI Mic 2 supports this feature, so users may feel a bit disappointed with the new change.

The DJI Mic 3 is a powerhouse for creators without a doubt, since its features are scalable audio solutions without sacrificing portability or quality. 32-bit float audio, timecode, super extended battery life up to 28 hours with case, and approximately 2x transmission range has been increased. And approximately 8 RX receivers are now being supported with the Mic — so this is a big revolutionary change that we are witnessing inside the new DJI Mic 3. And you’re getting all these advantages at a slightly lower price, which is a big surprise for me that — how is it possible? Well, I am really very excited about the new release to upgrade my studio.

Stay tuned. We will bring more updates related to the pre-orders and where to buy, once the mic gets official on August 28, 2025.
