The first difference is the price.  The Phantom 3 Advanced weighs in at £899 and the Phantom 3 Professional at £1159, the difference being £260.

So, now you know how much you’ll save or extra you’ll spend, let’s tell you the differences between each model (there’s not that many really) and what you get for your £260.

DJI Phantom 3 Advanced films in the following resolutions and frames rates:-

  • FHD: 1920x1080p 24/25/30/48/50/60
  • HD: 1280x720p 24/25/30/48/50/60

The DJI Phantom 3 Professional films in the following resolutions and frame rates:-

  • UHD: 4096x2160p 24/25, 3840x2160p 24/25/30
  • FHD: 1920x1080p 24/25/30/48/50/60
  • HD: 1280x720p 24/25/30/48/50/60

As you can see, the main differences here are that the Phantom 3 Professional will shoot video in 4k at 24/25fps and then 3840x2160p at 24/25/30fps whereas the Phantom 3 Advanced stops short at 1920x1080p at upto 60 frames per second.

So, all in all, unless you want or need a 4k solution you might be better off with the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced.

The only other minor difference between the two is the power of the Battery Charger.  For some reason the Phantom 3 Advanced Battery Charger is 57W and the Phantom 3 Professional is 100W, so expect quicker charge times from the Phantom 3 Professional.
