DJI Mini 3 drone: On sale for $359 at Amazon

SAVE 14%: As of July 30, you can get the DJI Mini 3 drone for $359, down from $419. That's a 14% discount and $60 off.

Whether you're a hobbyist, an influencer, a real estate agent, or a professional photographer, a drone is one of the easiest ways to capture stunning aerial views and footage with relative ease. The only issue is that drones can be a pretty hefty investment. If you want a good one, you're easily looking at spending at least $500. But if you know where to look, you can often find a good deal. And while we usually don't recommend Amazon for drones, we actually found a legit DJI Mini 3 deal happening right now.

As of July 30, you can snag the DJI Mini 3 drone for $359, or $60 off its regular price of $419. That's a 14% discount. This isn't the lowest price we've seen for this model, but it's pretty close. It was around $329 last June, but since it's still summer and there are plenty of opportunities to capture some amazing aerial views, $359 isn't a bad price.

The DJI Mini 3 has a 38-minute flight time (and you can extend that up to 51 minutes with the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus) and can soar up to 32,800 feet. There’s no registration needed for recreational flying, since it’s under 249 grams. (Just keep in mind that if you buy the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus, it will weigh more.) It also shoots in 4K HDR video, and its true vertical shooting makes it super easy to take photos for social media.

This drone is also Level 5 wind-resistant, so it can stay steady even in windy conditions. And you can easily pair it with your phone for QuickTransfer at up to 25 Mb/s. This means you can use your phone as a remote and preview your shot from up to 10 km away.
