If you’re looking for a beginner-friendly camera drone, or want to trade up from a bargain-basement model, the DJI Mini 4K camera drone is perfect. It’s easy to use, offers excellent performance and video quality and has enough user-friendly features that it’s a breeze to fly.
You can get the DJI Mini 4K camera drone in Amazon’s Prime Day sale for $239. Or grab the DJI Mini 4K Fly More combo for $349.
The DJI Mini 4K camera drone is a great buy at the best of times, but at $60 off for the standard model and $90 off for the Fly More Combo package, this is a brilliant Prime Day drone deal. DJI is one of the world’s best-known drone-makers and they’ve knocked it out of the park with the 4K.
The standard bundle comes with the drone and remote but the Fly More Combo package includes a carry case and two extra batteries for a total of three, giving you up to 93 minutes of flight time. We gave it a massive five stars in our DJI Mini 4K review and think it’s the best lightweight drone for beginners. And if you’re after a bargain, check out the other Prime Day deals on offer.

We awarded this drone five stars in our DJI Mini 4K review, calling it “easily one of, if not the best sub-250 g drones available at this price point.” And now it’s up to $90 off, there’s no excuse to snap this portable gem up.
Aside from its impressively low 249g weight, the DJI Mini 4K is a superb all-rounder, easy to fly and, if you clip in your phone, you can watch its live feed as you fly. It can happily handle wind resistance of up to 21 mph and while it doesn’t boast obstacle avoidance, it does have downward sensors so it should land safely.
Its auto and manual camera controls mean you either snap and forget or tweak its settings to your heart’s content. You’ll get 21 minutes of flight per battery, but with the DJI Mini 4K Fly More Combo bundle, you can switch out the additional batteries for up to 93 minutes of flight time.
Or if this isn’t for you and you’re looking for a more powerful drone, the 3-camera DJI Mavic 3 Pro is worth investigating.

✅ Buy it if: You’re a beginner after a lightweight drone that can deliver excellent quality 4K video, with a respectable battery life. At $60 off or $90 off for the Fly More Combo, this is an absolute steal.
❌ Don’t buy it if: You’re a more seasoned drone flyer looking for a powerhouse or are prepared to pay more for better image quality and performance. The Holy Stone HS900 is $419.99 this Prime Day and is still suitable for beginners. And the 3 camera DJI Mavic 3 Pro is a higher-end drone, though it’s got a price tag to match.
