If you missed out on the recent Memorial Day 2023 sale, don’t worry. Many of those killer deals are back — at least in terms of DJI sales. That sale morphed right into another 2023 DJI summer sale — this one in the name of Father’s Day.
Between now and June 18, 2023, which is Father’s Day, DJI is running a major sale on its drones and action cameras. And even better is the fact that some of these discounts are even steeper than those offered for the Memorial Day 2023 sale, meaning procrastinators might actually have won out by missing that sale and instead shopping this one.
Here are the top deals running as part of the 2023 DJI summer sale:
20% off the DJI Air 2S and Air 2S Fly More Combo from the 2023 DJI summer sale
We’ll start with the top deal of the entire DJI Father’s Day 2023 sale, and that’s an incredible 20% off both the DJI Air 2S and Air 2S Fly More Combo. Here are how those prices break down on either product:
For Fly More Combo:
- Original price: $1,299
- Discounted price: $1,039
- Savings: 15% off ($190)
- Deal deals: Now through June 18, 2023
For basic Air 2S kit:
- Original price: $999
- Discounted price: $799
- Savings: 15% off ($150)
- Deal deals: Now through May 31, 2023
This is an even steeper discount than what we got for the 2023 Memorial Day drone sale — when both versions of the DJI Air 2S were being offered at just 15% off.
Not only is the 20% discount great, but the drone is great overall, still holding strong with the top spot in my guide to the best camera drones under $1,000.
The DJI Air 2S has the perfect combination of new and wildly innovative tech, a high quality camera, a seamless flying experience, smart safety features AND a reasonable price tag, mostly all thanks to its 1” sensor offering 20-megapixel photos and 5.4K video and a larger pixel size of 2.4μm. The Air 2S drone launched in April 2021.
This sale runs through June 18, 2023.
7% off the DJI Mini 3 Fly More Combo with DJI RC
- Original price: $858
- Discounted price: $798
- Savings: 7% off ($60)
- Deal deals: Now through June 18, 2023
Sure, 7% discount isn’t the most doorbuster of deals, but here’s why it’s still a ‘big deal.’ The DJI Mini 3 is among the newest drones in DJI’s lineup, meaning finding it for a discount of any kind is rare.
This drone weighs less than 249 grams and offers an incredible 38 minutes of flight time. Find out why drones under 250 grams are such a big deal.
The DJI Mini 3 launched in December 2022 at $559 for the base model (or as low as $469 if you already have a controller). With that, it’s landed a spot in my guide to the best DJI drones under $500, depending on your financial gymnastics.
But the reality is, you’ll usually pay a far-higher $858, because you’ll almost surely end up buying the DJI Mini 3 Fly More Combo, which gets add-ons like a shoulder bag, Two-Way Charging Hub, and two extra Intelligent Flight Batteries. That’s also the configuration which gets you the far-superior DJI RC.
The good news is that $858 comes down to just $798 as part oft he 2023 DJI summer sale. This deal is available now and rungs through June 18, 2023.

- Original price: $999
- Discounted price: $899
- Savings: 10% off ($100)
- Deal deals: Now through June 18, 2023
This is the same discount offered last month for the Memorial Day DJI sale, but it’s still a good one. The DJI FPV drone launched in March 2021 with a going rate of $1,299 for the combo. But these days, you can get it for just $999. And now through May 31, you can get it for an ever-lower $899.
The FPV is the predecessor to the DJI Avata drone, but that’s only made both drones hotter than ever right now. Deciding between this drone and the new kid on the block, the Avata Check out my guide to DJI Avata vs DJI FPV.

- Savings: 23% off ($90)
- Deal deals: Now through June 18, 2023
If you’re not interested at a drone at all, there’s still a DJI summer sale product for you. DJI’s Action 2 competes with GoPro as a high-quality, magnetic action camera. The camera includes a 1/1.7-inch CMOS sensor that records up to 4K/120fps video with a super-wide 155° FOV.
It’s an ideal product not just for action sports like biking or snowboarding (or even underwater sports with the waterproof case), but also for taking on spontaneous adventures, whether it’s a trip out to the park or on a hiking adventure. Don’t worry about breaking it either, as it’s ultra durable.
