The magnetic properties of van der Waals magnetic topological insulators MnBi2Te4 and MnBi4Te7 are investigated by magneto-transport measurements. We evidence that the relative strength of the inter-layer exchange coupling J to the uniaxial anisotropy K controls a transition from an A-type antiferromagnetic order to a ferromagnetic-like metamagnetic state. A bi-layer Stoner-Wohlfarth model allows us to describe this evolution, as well as the typical angular dependence of specific signatures, such as the spin-flop transition of the uniaxial antiferromagnet and the switching field of the metamagnet. In micron-size magnets, the single-domain switching-field astroid are however partly truncated by the nucleation of domain walls along the easy-axis direction.
