Amazon Prime Day — or more accurately, days — is back and bigger than ever. In 2025, the mega summer shopping event stretches across four full days, from July 8 at 12:01 a.m. PT through July 11 at midnight, giving Prime members 96 hours to score deals on millions of items — including drones and photography gear.
Whether you’re an aerial cinematographer, FPV racer, hobbyist drone flyer or someone just starting out, Prime Day can be a gold mine for scoring gear at a discount.
Keep in mind you do need to be an Amazon Prime member to shop these deals. However, you can get in on the action by signing up for a 30-day trial. Or, if you’re a student, you can get Amazon Prime for 50% off the usual price.
Drone Girl’s Guide to 2025 Amazon Prime Day
New for 2025 Amazon Prime Day: ‘Today’s Big Deals’
New this year, Amazon is launching a feature called “Today’s Big Deals,” which will include timed drops and themed sales on big brands. In the tech world, expect drops from big companies like Samsung. New offers could roll out every five minutes during peak times, so it’s worth checking often.
I’ll be keeping an eye out and updating this list as more drone-related deals drop.
The best 2025 Amazon Prime Day drone deals
Here are some of the best drone deals available for Prime Day that I know of so far (and expect more to come!):
30% off HoverAir drones
The HOVERAir X1 Pro and ProMax are a series of lightweight, foldable drones. Both make for some strong alternatives to DJI drones, such as the DJI Neo or the newer DJI Flip. The HOVERAir X1 PROMAX and HOVERAir X1 PRO drones launched in summer 2024 and have been going strong.
Sure, you can buy it now from B&H Photo or directly from HOVERAir, but Amazon is selling them for 30% off as part of their 2025 Amazon Prime Day sale.
Prime Day deals on cameras and gear drone creators love
23% off GoPro HERO13 Black
The GoPro HERO13 Black is the latest in action camera tech, built with aerial creators in mind. Offering 5.3K60 video, 27MP stills, and compatibility with the new HB-Series Lenses, it’s a serious upgrade for drone flyers who want cinematic footage without the bulk.
Launched in late 2024, the HERO13 Black delivers longer battery life, advanced stabilization, and better low-light performance than its predecessor. Whether mounted to a drone or used handheld for behind-the-scenes shots, it’s a top pick for aerial filmmakers.
Amazon is offering multiple versions at a discount (yes, the Polar White colorway is also available at the same discount).
- Standard: $329 (was $429.99)
- Creator Edition: $549.99 (was $649.99)
- HERO13 Bundle: $379.00 (was $479.99)
31% off Echo Dot (5th Gen) + Marvel Iron Man Stand Bundle
This bundle pairs Amazon’s best-sounding Echo Dot with a Limited Edition Iron Man stand — a fun, functional addition to any smart drone studio. If you know Drone Girl, you know I love Disney and Marvel — so I had to throw this one in.
The 5th Gen Echo Dot generally stands out because it offers clearer vocals and deeper bass, ideal for playing music, controlling your smart devices, or managing voice-activated workflows. I chose this specific one purely for the Iron Man stand..
Normally $89.98, it’s $61.98 for Prime Day.
25% off TP-Link Deco AX3000 Mesh Wi-Fi System
Whether you’re uploading 4K drone footage or livestreaming a flying session, reliable internet is key. The TP-Link Deco X55 Wi-Fi 6 Mesh System covers up to 6,500 square feet and supports up to 150 devices with strong, uninterrupted connectivity.
Each of the three nodes includes three gigabit Ethernet ports, ideal for creators with wired editing setups. The system uses AI-driven mesh technology to optimize your signal, room by room.
Originally $199.99, the 3-pack is now $149.98 — and it includes TP-Link HomeShield security features to protect your network.
50% off HANYCONY Surge Protector Power Strip
When traveling with drones, chargers, laptops, and cameras, power access is everything. The HANYCONY Surge Protector packs 8 AC outlets and 4 USB ports into a compact, wall-mountable strip with a flat plug — perfect for tight hotel setups or gear-heavy editing spaces.
This ETL-certified strip includes a 15A overload switch, 900J surge protection, and smart USB charging that automatically detects your device’s power needs.
Normally $19.99, it’s just $9.99 for Prime Day — and it could be one of the best under-$10 upgrades to your drone kit.
