Hurry – Prime Day could be the last chance to grab a DJI drone deal if you’re in the US, seriously

A $90 discount for the Essential Combo is a decent, record-equalling saving for this rugged action camera that was released in 2023 with superb-quality 4K video with excellent stabilization. It has been replaced by the Osmo Action 5 Pro which delivers a few decent upgrades, but I think the older model is the better bet for most people given the new low price. You get a camera that is waterproof down to 18m and a handy magnetic mounting system. Still not sure? Read how the Osmo Action 4 convinced me action cams are better than mirrorless for vacations.

I tested the Mini 4K and would recommend it in a heartbeat to first-time pilots. It's a stripped-back version of the Mini 4 Pro for less than half the price. The current sale prices for the Mini 4K is a record-low, although sadly the Mini 4K Fly More Combo is back up to full price ($449) having dropped to $359 earlier in the sales. I've included the link just in case that bundle, which includes two additional batteries, charging hub and carry case, comes back before the sale finishes.

The DJI Mini 3 is small and lightweight, making it perfect for beginners and those wanting to get started with drone photography and videography. It's more affordable than the Mini 4 Pro (although you won't get some of the advanced features, such as collision avoidance), but pricier than the Mini 4K. The $60 discount makes the drone more affordable than ever, while the bundle with the RC controller costs $479 (was $549) and the Fly More Bundle is $619 (was $719).

The sale prices which were available earlier in Prime Day week are gone, but I've kept the Neo in this guide for one reason – it's still available at Amazon, where elsewhere it's out of stock. The sale price, for DJI's answer to HoverAir's innovate X1 selfie drone, was $169 for the standard bundle – it's worth checking the link to see if that deal returns. There's also the Neo Fly More Combo for $289 which includes an additional battery and charging hub – again it's back to full price having dropped to $229 earlier this week.

The best drone overall for most falls to a new low price at Amazon. The Fly More Combo with two additional batteries provides over 100 minutes of flight time. OK with a single battery? The standard bundle is also on sale for £549 with the screen-less N2 controller, or for £689 with the RC 2 controller, via the same Amazon link.

Price check: £779 at the DJI store

Over £200 off is a massive discount and the lowest-ever price for DJI's rugged action camera from 2023 that shoots superb 4K and is waterproof up to 18m. It has been upgraded by the Osmo Action 5 Pro, but that model is much pricier now. It was the Osmo Action 4 convinced me action cams are better than mirrorless for vacations and it remains one of the best models available today.

DJI's latest action camera is one of the best out there, with some seriously impressive features for serious users. We gave the Action 5 Pro 4.5 stars in our review, praising its excellent 4K video quality, high quality build quality which features dual OLED screens, class leading 20m waterproofingwithout case and long battery life. It also works seamlessly with DJI's wireless mics. Rivals have higher resolution video, but DJI has doubled down on 4K quality. The record-low price for the superb action cam in Price Day was £237, but just £12 more is still a fine deal.

I tested the Mini 4K and would recommend it in a heartbeat to first-time pilots. It's a stripped-back version of the Mini 4 Pro for less than half the price. The current sale price for the Mini 4K in the UK equals the record-low. The above is for the Fly More Combo with two additional batteries, a charging hub and a carry case. However, there's the cheaper standard bundle available too, for just £225 (was £269).

DJI's answer to the HoverAir X1 selfie drone was the Neo, which boasts more flight control options, including FPV for which you'll need an additional headset. However, HoverAir's X1 has the edge for tracking skills and image quality, but not by a lot. The Neo is the cheaper of the two – the above deal is for the Fly More Combo which includes an additional battery and charging hub. Don't need those extras? You can get the standalone bundle for just £139 (was £169).
