This literally looks like a clone of the mini 4k? Even the box/packaging Is the software on the phone the same too?

Yeah that's why I included the description, this is a well-known alternate white label DJI brand to dodge the US Chinese drone ban. I believe the UI of the app is nearly identical as well, you can find comparisons on YouTube

FYI, I bought one two days ago, it just shipped today from Malaysia via DHL Express. I have no idea if it will get here by Christmas, seems like it should...maybe. Also, it is an (authorized) clone of the DJI mini, and it seems like you don't have to deal with geofencing with this version.

-no front LED
-remotes not compatible
-batteries not compatible
-the shell looks identical to the Mini 2 but with a 4k camera

Manufacturer web site: https://www.cogito-techs.com/
Note that the batteries are unavailable: https://www.amazon.com/stores/pag...416F289192

Refurb mini 4k with 1yr warranty for $239:
https://store.dji.com/product/dji...ished-unit

Since you cannot use DJI software, batteries or controllers it's not the same hardware. I don't get why anyone would buy this compared to a refurb mini 4k. I have not seen anything other than guessing that this is connected to DJI somehow. Since it is made in Malaysia, it's not off the same production line as DJI. I wish there was a DJI alternative (I miss you Parrot!) but a no-name drone should have a lower price than this.

So other than the hardware, software, the manufacturing site and accessory compatibility it's exactly the same as DJI.

Edit: I really dislike companies not being open about who they are. Old versions of the Cogito home page start with, "We are a Hong Kong-based startup company working on innovative products..." but the current version seems to have removed all reference to being a China based company. (Hong Kong is part of China and no longer independent in any way.)
