Spark is the cheapest for sure.
And a very nice starter drone.

The Mavic Air gives you 4K footage with 100 mb/s bitrate and more flight time.
The Mavic Pro gives even more flight time, better connection (for long range) but the bitrate is less.
Both have a better gimbal system.

All are great drones, but the Mavic Air and Mavic Pro have more advanced options.

So it does depend on what you want / need

Which one best suits your needs within your budget?  

I never buy looking to meet future needs that I think I might have.  By the time I really need whatever (4k, 30minute flight, 1 inch sensor) there will be better solutions available.

*21 min flight time depending on weather
*2.3 miles range depending on location
*12.3 megapixel camera
*100 mb bit rate for less buffer time on videos
*Camera quality difference
*New flight modes/Quickshots
*internal 8GB storage (expandable with a Micro SD card up to 128GB)
