    Mavic Pro bought in China - Warranty in Europe?

    Another side note: Perhaps the money saved from buying in China would cover the cost of buying Refresh so you have piece of mind as well as a good price! Also - after thinking about this... I NEVER discussed about getting care refresh when initially buying the Mavic. Care Refresh was...

    Mavic Pro bought in China - Warranty in Europe?

    That could be a possibility but I'm just reporting my experiences. In any event, I HIGHLY recommend the Refresh. I feel the Mavic is not completely stable and the numerous reports of flyaways are not inconsequential - I always have in the back of my mind that the drone might misbehave during...

    Mavic Pro bought in China - Warranty in Europe?

    DJI never asked me for an invoice - so they never saw my Shenzhen CN invoice. When I needed the repair service, I went to the Care Refresh webpage and they asked for my login information (which was done when I was back in New York) as well as the Care Refresh policy number (and that had a...

My friend at DJI (I didn't buy from the factory store where she works) told me that I MUST activate the mavic in my home country...

    DJI Care Refresh. Is it for you???

    Having a Mavic just replaced under Care Refresh, I am a bit biased for this "insurance".. The $100 plus $79 deductible to cover a $1000 drone was more than well worth it! I accidentally dropped too low and hit the top of trees and down it tumbled. Broke an arm as well as completely severing...

    Mavic Pro bought in China - Warranty in Europe?

    Well I bought my Mavic in Shenzhen back on Feb 8th. I also bought the care refresh warranty too. The DJI employee (she works at the flagship store) told me not to activate the Mavic until I got back to the HOME country where I will be using it. For the care refresh, I just gave my CHINA...
