only 90 day warranty. Adding a 2 yr geek squad protection plan is additional $300 making it around $885 with it which negates the saving because brand new on sale is currently $900. I don't mind refurbished for lower priced items. But it's risky for a drone (especially fpv) at this price & without protection plan. $585 would be a cool price for this drone though.

Tempting but this is no "certified dji refurbished" - so have these been crashed and then repaired by geeksquad? Drones aren't always the best to get refurbs on as if anything goes wrong while you're flying then it will crash/damage whatever is below it..

Also geek squad refurbished, so basically just used. Who knows what it's been through.

Appreciate the share, OP. I was about to go for it assuming free returns, but it looks like they have a 15% restocking fee for drones. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/help...00050014.c


Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

First off - this is a great price for an incredible piece of technology!

Just a quick warning... If this isn't certified refurbished by DJI, you might end up with a drone that's locked to the previous owner that returned the device's account. DJI has a system that's pretty similar to Apple where you register the drone to your DJI account. When you sell it (or return it), if you don't unregister the device the next owner won't be able to use the device. It's basically there as a protection so your drone doesn't get stolen (or if you crash it somewhere). You can reach out to DJI and try to convince their support to reach out the previous owner, but it looks kind of painful and seems to take ~1week to resolve if they manage to help you through it. If you check the reviews of other "Geek Squad Certified Refurbished" DJI drones like the mini 3 you'll see people are hitting this issue.

Source: Bought one used from B&H Photo that a previous owner had returned and couldn't use it. I ended up returning it and buying a brand new one because the process to resolve looked painful/unreliable. I also have 3 other DJI drones - I just never noticed because I had never sold any previously. Only DJI (or the previous registered owner) can resolve, so if DJI wasn't that one that refurbished you might run into this problem. Just a heads up!

yes restocking 15% fee is there for drone. You can do return if there's anything wrong with it, so make sure you test the hell out of it.

FYI: I don't know that I understand the whole story but from the DJI website:

"From early 2021, DJI has discontinued support for their apps including DJI Fly, DJI Mimo and more on the Google Play Store. Unfortunately for Android users, this means that you are no longer able to download DJI apps via the Google Play Store."

My understanding is that DJI has some sketchy permissions requirements and Google told them to knock it off and they instead opted to no longer have their apps on the play store. You have to download them directly from DJI. That means you have zero protections. They can do whatever they want on your phone. I find that troubling. What was so important that they were doing that they were willing to pull the app from the Play store instead of improving the permissions?
