If DJI added a cell signal capability to the drones, they could call them phones and avoid all the tariffs. Yeah, I'm a genius.

Since we don't know the language of the tariff, we can't say either way but here's something to consider. The tariff might be on goods FROM China and not necessarily goods manufactured in China. So, if it's that's the case, one could, feasibly, buy ANY item made in China, while vacationing in...

Signed DJI goggles. It was at the end of the video.

The Mini 4 Pro bundle had the batteries with the drone but in a separate box. Inside the box was a big battery.

In reality, I'd be surprised if it cost DJI more than $150 to make a drone.

Unlikely that drones will be exempt. Phones are exempt because Apple "convinced" Trump that the consumer base won't pay triple for iDevices. They had to allow Android phones because of monopoly laws. Electronic components are exempt because someone reminded someone of how so many US industries...

Lost on a distance test, this Mini 4 Pro was found after TWO YEARS

Call me crazy but the $1150 that I paid for my Mini Pro 4 was my absolute limit on price for something that can malfunction and disappear. But I'm a cheap bastard. I didn't even pay that much for the car I've been driving for the last 6 years.

There's a very real possibility that if you order from DJI direct, and they send the drone from China, you will have a bill waiting for you before it will be delivered.

I thought they were also eliminating the $800 exception.

China absolutely does not care about the continuing trade with the US at this point. The US is only about 15% of the China trade market and they can absorb that by doing trade with other countries that are also being hit with US tariffs. I'm not an economist but I don't see any way this won't...

Battery came loose? Maybe wasn't seated properly?

104%

And it was flying illegally.

And, unfortunately, so many more who will screw over 100 people just for another dollar on top of their pile.
