Final call! It's the last day of this year's October Prime Day sales. We've seen some fantastic discounts on our favorite tech already, such as TVs, laptops, home appliances, and more. Here at Tom's Guide, I review the best drones, so it's my job to find you the best deals on the likes of DJI, Potensic and HoverAir.
If you've been thinking of getting a drone, now is your last chance to do so before Black Friday. My favorite deal is the one on the DJI Neo for $159 at Amazon, which is currently 20% off its retail price of $199. If you want a non-DJI drone that takes great selfies, check out the HoverAir X1 which is just $265 and a whopping 34% off at Amazon.
There are many more deals for you to take advantage of, and I'd recommend snagging them while you can as we may not see them again until Black Friday. So, without further ado, here are the seven best drone deals this October Prime Day. For more great discounts, be sure to check out our Amazon Prime Day deals live blog right now.

The HoverAir X1 is a great selfie drone as it can fly without a controller or a smartphone — all you need to do is press the buttons on its body, and it'll record short-form videos. My colleague enjoyed using it a lot and appreciated its surprisingly good obstacle avoidance and subject tracking features such as follow, rocket, and more. This combo includes a storage bag, a charging hub, and a USB cable.

Featuring 32GB of internal storage, the HoverAir X1 Pro is a lovely little drone that can capture 4K/60fps and FHD/120fps slow-motion footage. It's extremely easy to fly, and in my HoverAir X1 Pro/ProMax review, I noted that the drone offered awesome hands-free shooting capabilities, going toe-to-toe with the DJI Neo. This combo includes a charging hub, a case, extra batteries, an adapter as well as USB cable.

The DJI Neo costs very little to begin with, and I recommend it even at its full price, so this deal is too good to pass up. In my DJI Neo review, I praised this drone for its lightweight, compact and minimalistic design. It can shoot 4K footage at 30fps, take detailed stills, and remain stable in tricky conditions. Easy to control with the RC-N3 controller or the DJI Fly app on a smartphone, the Neo makes drone photography more accessible thanks to its low price point.

We have all been preoccupied by the launch of the DJI Mini 5 Pro, but that doesn't mean the other DJI Mini drones should be ignored or underestimated. The Mini 3 is highly capable, boasting the ability to shoot vertical video, 4K/30fps horizontal video, a 38-minute flight time, and more. The Fly More Combo includes a shoulder bag, a DJI RC controller, as well as a charging hub and extra batteries.

The DJI Mini 4K features some pro specs. Not only can you capture 4K/30fps footage, but you also get access to QuickShots and panoramas with a 31-minute flight time. The drone also features a smart return to home and stable hovering, making it the ideal drone for beginners and drone enthusiasts. This deal includes a DJI RC-N1 controller.

The Potensic Atom 2 is even better than its predecessor, as it can capture 48MP stills. In my Potensic Atom 2 review, I noted that it records stable, smooth 4K/30fps video and features advanced, accurate AI subject tracking, along with a new, easy-to-use controller and app. It features an AI Night Mode that reduces grain when shooting in low-light conditions. It’s also lightweight yet sturdy. This deal includes extra batteries and a carry bag.

The Potensic Atom SE Fly More Combo includes the drone, an extra batteries, the controller, and a carry bag. The drone weighs less than 249g, so you don't need to register with the F.A.A. in the U.S. or the C.A.A. in the U.K. The Atom SE is a great starting point for new drone pilots.
