The DJI Neo drone has dropped to its lowest-ever price at Amazon — act fast to save $60. As of Sept. 15, the device is on sale for $139, down from its usual $199, which works out to a 30% discount.
That is the cheapest this drone has ever been, according to camelcamelcamel. The deal is live now at Amazon.
The Drone at Its Lowest Price
The DJI Neo is a small, lightweight machine aimed at beginners who do not want a complicated setup. It comes with eight QuickShots modes for capturing different kinds of footage, so you do not have to control every shot yourself. You can fly it using voice commands, the DJI mobile app, an RC controller, or without a controller at all.
The video camera records 4K footage with DJI’s stabilization technology. The drone has level 4 wind resistance. Full-coverage propeller guards add extra protection when you are moving through obstacles.
Why Now Is the Time to Buy
The sale comes as the U.S. government has placed new restrictions on DJI drones. Those changes apply to future imports, but they do not affect devices already in stock with U.S. retailers.
That means you can still purchase and use a DJI Neo today. The restrictions apply to shipments coming in from abroad, not to drones already sitting on store shelves. The sale is currently live, so there is no waiting period before the price goes back up.
