DJI Cuts Support for Hundreds of Products, Including Popular Drones

DJI has quietly updated its list of products that have reached the end of their service life or are scheduled to lose support in the near future. The list of over 100 products includes popular drones.

DJI has expanded its list of unsupported and soon-to-be-unsupported product models. Affected products include drones, covering early era Phantom and Mavic models. At the end of the service suspension period specified on the support page, these products will no longer receive official repair, spare parts, customer service, or firmware updates.


No Parts, Repairs, or Updates Provided

The updated support page mentions 111 products, including various drones ranging from early Phantom models to older Mavic models. If you have been using DJI drones for recreational or professional video shooting for a while, there is a high probability that your product is on this list. Even if your device works, you should definitely pay attention to when official support ends for your model, especially if you have an older version.


Products DJI Has Dropped Support For

The list includes many drones that reached the end of their service life in 2025. The Phantom 4 Advanced and Phantom 4 Pro, released in 2016 and 2017 respectively, ceased to be supported by DJI as of June 1, 2025. The Mavic Pro Platinum, announced in 2017 with a platinum-colored casing, reached the end of its service life on April 30, 2025. Mavic Air, one of DJI’s most popular consumer-class drones, was added to the unsupported list on January 1, 2025. Another entry-level drone, DJI Spark, and the professional-grade Mavic Pro were removed from the company’s support cycle on October 1, 2024.

Meanwhile, other members of the Phantom 4 series, the Phantom 4 and Phantom 4 Pro Obsidian Edition, have been on the unsupported list since July 2023. DJI also ended official support for the Phantom 3 series, including the Phantom 3 Advanced, Phantom 3 Pro, Phantom 3 Standard, and Phantom 3 SE, in January 2023. Other consumer drones such as the Phantom 2 (2.4G) and Phantom 3 4K have not received official support for over three years. While a few industrial drones lost support in February 2024, several are scheduled to be finally phased out in January 2026.

DJI states that upgrading to newer models will ensure consumers benefit from the latest technologies and customer service. According to the company, ending support for older models provides more resources for new product development.
