DJI Mini 3 and Mini 4K discounted in October Prime Day deals

Amazon and several UK and U.S. retailers are offering steep discounts on DJI's compact drones during the final days of October Prime Day sales, with the DJI Mini 3 widely available at about 20 percent off and the DJI Mini 4K also reduced at select sellers. The Mini 3 is being sold on Amazon in the United States for roughly $335, down from a $419 list price, while some UK retailers are advertising comparable reductions with the model and controller bundles priced around £389. One retailer also listed the Mini 4K at a 20 percent discount on the promotion's final day.

The discounted Mini 3 targets entry level and casual users with a compact package that weighs under 249 grams, a designation that typically exempts hobby flyers from U.S. Federal Aviation Administration registration and Remote ID requirements. The drone records 4K HDR video at up to 30 frames per second and captures 12 megapixel stills using an 11.3 inch sensor and an f/1.7 aperture, according to product listings and technical summaries. It offers features aimed at beginners such as GPS Return to Home, precise hovering and automated takeoff and landing, plus True Vertical Shooting for social media formats.
