I've been writing about drones for years – I'd say I've written the book on the subject but that'd be forgetting the other book! Not that anyone needs me to blow my own trumpet – the point is that as an enthusiast, professional, and reviewer, I know a lot about drones – and I enjoy them.

Now we're being bombarded with offers for discounted drones, it's difficult to sort the good from the bad, and this year it's especially challenging because several different sides of the US government also seem to be lending their opinions on the matter too.

That's actually good news for prices, though, as some of the best drones – from the biggest brands – are being reduced in price thanks to the uncertainty. So on this live page I'll be sharing the latest good deals, and details about whether they're safe to buy! At the top here are some of the best deals I've seen so far, but keep watching for live updates below.

There has been a lot of movement on pricing in the UK around the DJI Neo. This drone – still incredibly giftable – remains cheaper than the Neo 2, and has most of the same features, so if you're buying for someone, there is much to be said for it. Many recipients would prefer the Neo and three batteries than the Neo 2 and one battery, I assure you.

In the USA, the Neo 2 isn't officially available yet, but that doesn't mean the discounts haven't made it.

The reason I recommend the Neo series of drones is that you can buy the drone relatively cheaply, and if it goes down well (it will) it can be upgraded later with a traditional remote control or even a floating wand controller and FPV goggles. It is also very safe because of its lightweight caged design.
