[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 79661, member: 10850"] The refurbs have the same warranty but they are [B][I]definitely[/I][/B] [B][I]not new - [/I][/B]most were previously owned and returned broken thru DJI Care (or defective and returned thru the warranty program). A small number were open-box returns that may have been flown a few times and can no longer be sold as new. DJI repairs them, "tests" them and then resells them as refurb. It's not uncommon for a refurbished unit to be delivered to its second owner with issues that slipped past their tests. These can be returned under warranty but it's a hassle. It happened to me and other members on the forum. There are good reason why they are cheaper -- used, broken/defective, repaired, re-sold... less reliable than brand new. Still a good deal but some lemons mixed in. [/QUOTE]
