Looking for the perfect travel companion, a jaw-dropping holiday gift, or just an excuse to finally get into drones? The DJI Mini 3 has never been cheaper. Its latest price drop takes this lightweight, feature-packed flyer into record-low territory: a deal that’s hard to pass up, whether you’re buying for yourself or someone else.

If GoPro’s MAX2 360° camera was intended to steal the headlines, the company made sure it didn’t overshadow its other surprises. Alongside the MAX2, GoPro has unveiled LIT HERO, a compact lifestyle camera with an integrated light, and Fluid Pro AI, a multi-device gimbal with AI subject tracking. These two new entries signal that GoPro is not just competing in the high-end 360 world but doubling down on creator tools across the board.

When DJI thought it had the fall spotlight all to itself with the launch of the Osmo Nano, GoPro decided to crash the party. On the very same day, the California-based action cam pioneer pulled the wraps off its new flagship 360° camera — the GoPro MAX2 — boasting the world’s first true 8K immersive video.

When Los Angeles wildfires raged earlier this year, every minute counted. But one tech mogul’s reckless curiosity with a DJI Mini 3 Pro drone grounded a vital firefighting plane mid-mission, and now he’s paying the price.

DJI kicked off fall with the splashy launch of its Mini 5 Pro drone, but US fans were left out, since the highly anticipated aircraft never made it stateside. Today, though, American creators finally get a win: the brand-new Osmo Nano wearable camera has officially landed, and unlike the Mini 5 Pro, it’s available to buy right now!

Uber is officially going airborne. The company just announced its first-ever investment in drone delivery, teaming up with Israeli startup Flytrex to make food orders literally drop out of the sky. Pilot programs are expected to kick off in select US markets before the end of 2025.

If you fly a DJI drone in the United States for professional purposes, buckle up: the Federal Aviation Administration’s new draft rule, FAA Part 108, could dramatically alter the way you operate. On paper, Part 108 is meant to finally normalize routine beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) flights at scale, a move many in the drone industry have been waiting for years. But as written, it could shut out much of the existing DJI fleet, or any other non-US-made drone that American pilots actually use every day.

DJI has released a new firmware update for Osmo 360, expanding the camera’s creative toolkit in some meaningful ways. Firmware v01.02.07.20, along with the DJI Mimo app v2.4.8 for iOS and Android, introduces new low-light video options, audio upgrades, and even a privacy safeguard — subtle but practical changes that reflect how people are using the camera in real life.

DJI has brought its A-game to the new Mini 5 Pro, and drone fans everywhere are excited. Bigger sensor, better obstacle sensing, and incremental boosts in flight performance put it on many pilots’ wish lists. But there’s a catch — the new DJI drone isn’t officially coming to the US. For American flyers, that raises a dilemma: Do you wait it out, try importing, or pick it up overseas, or stick with the proven Mini 4 Pro that’s already available at home? And with questions around whether the Mini 5 Pro truly weighs in under 250 grams, the decision matters even more for recreational pilots. Let’s break it down.

DJI isn’t slowing down. The company just pulled the wraps off its new Mini 5 Pro drone — though, frustratingly, not in the US market — and now it’s already teasing another big release. Scheduled for September 23 at 8 a.m. EDT, DJI’s next reveal is billed under the tagline “Own the Moment.” And if the teaser video is any clue, the mystery product looks very much like the long-awaited Osmo Nano camera.

Drones are buzzing over Helsinki’s West Harbor this week, but they’re not there for stunning skyline shots. Instead, they’re keeping a close eye on traffic.

If you’ve just unboxed DJI’s brand-new Mini 5 Pro, your first stop isn’t the skies — it’s the settings menu. DJI has already rolled out the drone’s very first firmware update, unlocking a set of features we knew were going to be there, but needed this patch to go live.

DJI just dropped the brand-new Mini 5 Pro, starting at $769. But here’s the thing: it isn’t officially available in the US. So while Americans wait (and wonder) if it will ever hit store shelves, here’s a drone deal you can actually buy today. The DJI Mini 4K is back on sale for Amazon Prime members for just $249, down from its usual $299.

DJI has rolled out Fly app version 1.18.0, bringing one major addition: support for its newly launched Mini 5 Pro drone. Released today, this update officially makes the Mini 5 Pro compatible with remote controllers, including the DJI RC-N3, DJI RC 2, and DJI RC Pro 2. Pilots selecting one of those controllers will now be able to use the Fly app seamlessly with the newest drone to be added to the DJI Mini series.

DJI has finally unveiled its long-anticipated Mini 5 Pro, but for the first time in the Mini series’ history, the company is admitting the drone might not live up to its signature promise: staying under 250 grams. And that small change could cause big headaches for recreational pilots worldwide.

DJI has done it again. The world’s biggest consumer drone maker just unveiled the Mini 5 Pro, and it might be the most advanced “mini” drone we’ve ever seen. Think big camera power in a palm-sized body: the kind of device that makes you want to pack your bags, find a scenic overlook, and start filming like a pro.

DJI announced its teaser for the “Pro in Mini” release event for this Wednesday. The expectation is that it will be the announcement of a refreshed DJI Mini drone, the Mini 5 Pro. However, if you’re in the US, you will have likely only seen DJI’s social posts and nothing else.

It’s release season again, and DJI has just teased another product the company will be announcing this Wednesday at 8:00 AM ET. While the company still wants to maintain secrecy ahead of the launch, we have a pretty good idea of what is coming, per leaks over the last couple of months.

When you think of the Vatican, you imagine centuries-old art, sacred rituals, soaring architecture. But this weekend, St. Peter’s Square got a futuristic makeover: over 3,000 custom drones danced and painted the sky with light, recreating Michelangelo’s masterpieces, honoring the late Pope Francis, and bringing together music, tech, and faith like never before.

If you own a DJI Mini 4 Pro, Air 3S, Mavic 4 Pro, or any of DJI’s popular camera drones, you know that battery management is key to maximizing your flight time. But what happens when your drone charges too slowly, or worse, won’t charge at all? DJI has released detailed guidance to help drone pilots choose the right charger, troubleshoot battery issues, and keep their gear in top shape. Let’s break it down so you can get back to flying with confidence.

If you missed IFA 2025 in Berlin, you should know that DJI is turning heads at one of the world’s biggest tech shows, scooping up multiple “Best of IFA” awards from top media outlets. And more wins are expected!

DroneDeploy just hit a major milestone, and it could reshape the future of construction, inspection, and site management for drone pilots everywhere. The reality capture leader has officially reached break-even, meaning it’s now fully self-sustaining. Instead of chasing profitability, the company can plow every dollar it earns straight into product development, and its first move is big: a $15 million strategic raise dedicated entirely to advancing its AI and robotics offerings.

DJI has just released a new firmware update, version v01.00.09.00, for its high-capacity portable power station, the Power 1000 V2, bringing “improved stability” and fixes for several “known issues.”
