DJI Mini 5 Pro Black Friday deal on AliExpress drops to €579

The DJI Mini 5 Pro is the brand’s newest model in its category. Even though it has only been on sale for a few months, it is already included in Black Friday deals - and the price cut is anything but minor, coming in at close to -45%. Be aware that stock is limited.

Black Friday on AliExpress: up to -45% off the DJI Mini 5 Pro

This year, Black Friday is also running on AliExpress. That is a first for the retailer, as it does not usually join in with this kind of special event. However, it has decided to make an exception this time - and it has gone all in.

With the promotion taking place from 20 to 28 November (until the evening), AliExpress is targeting the biggest names in consumer tech. The discounts are positioned as “premium”, just like the products involved, and they can reach as much as -50%.

Among the standout offers, the DJI Mini 5 Pro drops to an exceptional price of €579 instead of €999 when you use the code FRBF80 or BFFR80. As with any Black Friday operation, speed matters if you want to save money - and that is true across all e-commerce sites, including AliExpress.

Delivery, warranty and limited availability

Given that the discount on the DJI Mini 5 Pro is as limited as the stock itself, the smartest move is to act quickly so you do not miss out on this rare opportunity. The same logic applies across the wider catalogue, which is why it is best not to wait if a product catches your eye at a low price.

On the DJI Mini 5 Pro specifically, AliExpress is sticking to its usual approach. Shipping is free and fast, and the drone is even dispatched from France, which helps reduce waiting time further. You also get a two-year manufacturer’s warranty - the same cover you would receive if you ordered directly from the official website - alongside the very sizeable saving available to the quickest buyers.

DJI Mini 5 Pro: a new gem from an iconic brand

As the latest entry in its range, released in September 2025, the DJI Mini 5 Pro is an ultra-light, foldable drone. Weighing 249 g, it stays under the 250 g threshold - a key limit that allows piloting without any certification requirement. That makes it a fit for virtually anyone, whether you are just starting out or already highly experienced.

On the specification side, DJI has delivered a meaningful refresh with the DJI Mini 5 Pro. It features a 1-inch CMOS sensor that can capture 50-megapixel photos and record 4K video at up to 120 frames per second. The end result is highly convincing, with footage that is smooth, detailed and well suited to modern formats - including vertical video for social networks, for example. On this model, the gimbal can now rotate through 225 degrees, enabling more creative and flexible shots with more dynamic camera movement.

One of the DJI Mini 5 Pro’s biggest innovations is its advanced omnidirectional obstacle-detection system, which now includes a forward-facing LiDAR unit as well as multiple 360-degree vision sensors. With this technology onboard, the drone gains extra safety and a more effective return-to-home behaviour, even when conditions are challenging. The Nightscape mode, paired with the LiDAR, improves navigation at night (or in low light) and lowers the risk of accidents. These features will appeal to beginners and make the drone much easier to get to grips with.

For creators, the DJI Mini 5 Pro offers a wide selection of intelligent modes, including MasterShots, QuickShots and Waypoints, which automate camera movements to help you produce complex, cinematic sequences with minimal effort. In addition, the ability to shoot HDR 4K/60 fps and record 10-bit footage using the H.265 codec promises image quality that sits close to a professional level. The drone also includes 4K/120 fps slow motion and the Med-Telé mode (equivalent to 48 mm) for tighter framing or zoomed-in shots without sacrificing quality.

Battery life is another strong point: maximum flight time can reach up to 52 minutes thanks to an optimised battery - an impressive figure for such a compact drone. Compatible with multiple controllers (DJI RC 2 and DJI RC N3), it supports a video transmission range of up to 20 km under the FCC standard (10 km under CE), while keeping latency low. Ease of use is further improved with QuickTransfer up to 100 MB/s over Wi‑Fi 6, a remote wake-up function, and the ability to manage your images through the DJI Fly app.
