Black Friday DJI deals 2023: Sales still available on Avata, Mini 3, Osmo Action 3 and more
The DJI Black Friday 2023 sale is over, but a few bargains remain
The DJI Black Friday deals event is now over, and sadly most of the best bargains are no longer available. There are still a few tasty discounts from the industry leader of the best drones, especially if you're in the UK. DJI has more strings to its bow, too, including some of the best action cameras, gimbals for mobile and remote mics, which also feature in this article.
For the 2023 Black Friday deals event, the DJI Avata Pro View combo kit – which is comprehensive bundle to try your hand at FPV flying – fell to a record low price of $999 at B&H Photo (US) and £859 at Amazon (UK). and that deal lives on, plus you can still grab the Osmo Action 3, which is one of our favorite action cameras that was recently updated with the Osmo Action 4, prcied $319 at Amazon US for the Creator Combo, or it's £259 at Amazon UK for the Standard Combo.
As DJI finished its sale, the prices on Amazon and other sites have followed suit, increasing to pre-sale prices. I've checked all the best prices after Cyber Monday and kept the best deals still available, below.

Black Friday DJI drone deals still available (US)
DJI Avata pro view combo kit (with Goggles 2 + RC Motion 2): was $1,428 now $999 at B&H Photo
DJI's pricy introduction to first person view drone flying is the small, intuitive and fun DJI Avata. It's more affordable now with a generous 30% discount ahead of Black Friday at Amazon. Compared to the chunkier DJI FPV that can fly at staggering speeds, the Avata is slower yet more agile, plus it has a better camera. If the thrill of piloting is stronger than the desire for a conventional camera drone, then the Avata, complete with DJI's Goggles 2, could be for you.
DJI Air 2S Fly More Combo (refurbished): was $1,299 now $749.99 at Best Buy
The Air 2S is one of our favourite drones – check out our five-star review that describes the Air 2S as "one of the best all-round drones you can buy" with stellar image quality from its 20MP 1-inch sensor. There's no noteworthy deals for a new Air 2S in the US just yet, but a certified refurbished version of the Fly More Combo – that adds two additional batteries, a three-battery charging hub, a shoulder bag and a set of four ND filters to the standard kit – has a sizeable $550 off at Best Buy.

DJI Osmo Action 3 Creator Combo: was $379 now $319 at Amazon
Recently updated by the Osmo Action 4 which is now one of the best action cameras, a price drop of the Action 3 was inevitable, like for this Creator Combo kit that comes with an additional battery, 32GB microSD card and carry case, and is currently cheaper than the Standard Combo that lacks those extras. The updated model has a larger sensor and better low light image quality, but the two models have many similarities and so the Action 3 is a great deal now.
DJI Mic: was $329 now $249 at Amazon
Any filmmaker worth their salt knows the value of high quality sound, and the DJI Mic is a fuss-free wireless kit that's an excellent pairing with DJI's own action cameras, like the new Pocket 3. This kit comprises two transmitters, one receiver, plus a charging case, and is the first accessory I'd pick up for life with a shiny new DJI video camera.

Black Friday DJI drone deals still available (UK)
DJI Mini 3 Pro (DJI NC): was £709 now £569 at Amazon
The DJI Mini 3 Pro received our best drone 2023 award, and our Mini 3 Pro review billed the sub 250g drone as “the best compact drone you can buy” with punchy 4K video and tri-directional obstacle avoidance. It has since been updated by the Mini 4 Pro that delivers omni-directional obstacle avoidance and improved video features like 4K up to 120fps and D-Log M flat color profile. However, our Mini 4 Pro vs Mini 3 Pro article concludes that for most people the Mini 3 Pro is plenty enough, and it's price has come down at Amazon for the regular (NC) remote controller kit.

DJI Avata pro view combo kit (with Goggles 2 + RC Motion 2): was £1,249 now £859 at Amazon
DJI's pricy introduction to first person view drone flying is the small, intuitive and fun DJI Avata. It's more affordable now with a generous 30% discount for Black Friday at DJI's own store. Compared to the chunkier DJI FPV that can fly at staggering speeds, the Avata is slower yet more agile, plus it has a better camera. If the thrill of piloting is stronger than the desire for a conventional camera drone, then the Avata, complete with DJI's Goggles 2, could be for you.

DJI Air 2S: was £899 now £669.95 at Amazon
The Air 2S is one of our favorite drones – check out our five-star review that describes the Air 2S as "one of the best all-round drones you can buy" with stellar image quality from its 20MP 1-inch sensor. Since being updated by the Air 3 earlier this year, it gets a tasty price drop in this standard kit deal, while the Fly More Combo costs £919 via the same deal link.
DJI Mini 2 SE: was £309 now £259 at Amazon
This is an excellent discount on what is arguably one of the best beginner-friendly drones on the market – and one that offers good value too. Weighing just 249g and feature-packed, including a max flight time of 31 minutes, it's easy to use and you won't even need to register it as it's below the weight limitations. The cost shoots up for the Fly More combo, which costs £379.

DJI Mic: was £289 now £219 at WEX
Any filmmaker worth their salt knows the value of high quality sound, and the DJI Mic is a fuss-free wireless kit that's an excellent pairing with DJI's own action cameras, like the new Pocket 3. This kit comprises two transmitters, one receiver, plus a charging case, and is the first accessory I'd pick up for life with a shiny new DJI video camera. The discounted price is also available at Currys.
DJI Osmo Action 3 Standard Combo: was £309 now £259 at Amazon
Recently updated by the Osmo Action 4 which is now one of the best action cameras, a price drop of the Action 3 was inevitable, and the price for the Standard Combo has dropped by £50. However, the Adventure Combo that comes with an 'Extension Rod' (selfie stick) and two extra batteries with battery case charger is the kit we'd go for. During Amazon Prime Day in October 2023, this kit fell to £314.42, whereas now is fallen from £399 to £339, so keep an eye to see if this deal price drops again. The updated model has a larger sensor and better low light image quality, but the two models have many similarities and so the Action 3 is a great deal now.

Will there be more DJI Black Friday deals in 2023?
DJI has launched lots of new gear in 2023, and the best deals are on previous-gen gear, especially the now two generations old Action 2 (see deal above). The drone giant has had a busy year launching new gear, including the DJI Osmo Action 4, DJI Mavic 3 Pro, DJI Air 3, and DJI Mini 4 Pro, which leaves the potential for a bargain on recently replaced models for the remainder of the year.
We are seeing the lowest-ever prices on the Osmo Action 3, DJI Air 2S, and DJI Mini 3 Pro, all of which remain excellent bits of gear despite being updated with new 2023 models.
