The DJI Neo, the company's cheapest camera drone, is now cheaper than it's ever been.
Amazon has cut the DJI Neo to $169, a $30 discount off its $199 list price, which price-tracking site CamelCamelCamel logs as the drone's all-time low. The 135-gram drone launches straight from your palm, flies without a controller using the DJI Fly app or voice commands, and can also pair with a remote for more precise control. It shoots 4K UHD video with DJI's stabilization and level-4 wind resistance, and beginner-friendly extras like Subject Tracking and eight QuickShots modes handle a lot of the framing and camera-move work for you. Full-coverage propeller guards are built in, which matters more than usual for a drone aimed at first-timers still learning to avoid obstacles.
This is an early Prime Day price cut, arriving a week before Amazon's sale event officially starts, which fits Amazon's now-familiar pattern of leaking discounts to build momentum before the main event. At $169, the Neo undercuts most of DJI's own lineup, using a low price and a near-zero learning curve to pull newcomers into the ecosystem before they eventually trade up to pricier models.
If history is a guide, expect this price to get matched or beaten once Prime Day proper begins. Record-low claims rarely survive a real sale unchallenged.
