Aftermarket props

I choose to stick with OEM props.
They are the most important part of our drone.

This I do not know...I didn't get the care refresh with my spark but I would imagine that it probably would
There would be know way for DJI to know what props you are using so no effect of DJI Care coverage.
OEM props are pretty cheap so I stick with DJI anyway. But when somebody comes out with LOW NOISE props for Spark I'm all in!!!
I seen some low noise props on Amazon and they had high reviews.... So they are out there but I don't know anyone that has tried them
If you've found low-noise props for the Spark on Amazon (or anywhere else) please post a link
All the low-noise props I see on Amazon are for the Mavic
Just search on Amazon...Dji spark low noise props

Here are some more by a different manufacture

Thanks. I searched Amazon many times and those never came up. Not today either. Lol
But they look like the same design -- so I suspect vendor BS to get sales. True low noise props have a tapered edge.
Worth a try. I'll let you know

There is no difference in control, noise or performance with non original props. Been using them since I bought my Spark
So I got those replacement props that were supposed to be "low-noise" according to the Amazon description...
Disappointed to find they are exactly the same as standard props. Nothing special. Just as noisy.
The Amazon description from the manufacturer is just false advertising to stand out from the glut of replacement props. Lessons learned: be suspicious of Amazon vendors that don't allow reviews or allow Q&A for their products. And don't take recommendations from forum posts unless they have actually used the product.
In the meantime...
Still looking for bona fide low noise props for Spark. Wouldn't that be nice to not make such a harsh sound?
I kinda figured that that's why I didn't order them..... The size of the spark props I don't think there is a way to make them any quieter probably the reason we can't find them. I would report their false advertising to Amazon and they will do something about it... Also heard through a employee at Best Buy ( a big electronics store where I live ) that sells all dji drones that dji is getting ready to release Spark 2.
We always recommend against using third party accessories on your drone. First it can void the warranty and second you dont know how in depth their testing was and the part could potentially damage your drone. All in all, stick to official DJI Parts
Spark - 4730S Quick Release Folding Propellers (Part 2)
When you send in your drone for warranty work the props (and battery) are usually removed. There is literally no way for DJI to know what props you used during flight.
Props generally don't just fail - they get damaged from impact. All brands including DJI are equally frail in that regard.
But if somebody prefers original DJI they are less expensive at Best Buy than the link you provided.

Even cheaper at Amazon ... $19 for two pairs. Of course, that's in US dollars, and I suspect @officialdrdrone's prices are in CAD. With the current exchange rate, @officialdrdrone's price is less than US$10.
But I'm happy with the Anbee props, with 4 pairs @ US$14.
