Drones beta · DJI
Owners who already fly DJI drones keep the Avata 360 as part of a wider kit. They value that it shares goggles and controllers with the rest of their DJI gear.
The most-raised point is how well it fits an existing DJI setup. One owner switches between the Neo and the Avata 360 in the same goggles and enjoys both. There are too few accounts for the site to give this a verdict.
One long-time DJI customer objects to the custom batteries. DJI stops selling them after a couple of years, which leaves older drones redundant or unsafe to fly. Only one owner raised this, so it is too few to judge.
The DJI Avata 360 is a small, first-person-view (FPV) drone. It has two cameras that record 360-degree video, and you fly it with goggles. It is meant for people who want close, immersive flying shots and the freedom to choose the frame after the flight.

At about 455 g it weighs more than 250 g, so in many countries you will need to register it and may need a basic drone test. Expect about 20 minutes of real flying per battery, so buy spare batteries if you plan long sessions. Shooting in 8K 360° lets you pick your angle when you edit, which makes it harder to miss a shot. The 20 km range is a best-case test number; local rules usually require you to keep the drone in sight.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
Most of the people talking about the Avata 360 came to it from other DJI drones, starting with smaller models like the Neo or Mini and working up. The part they still enjoy is that it slots in next to what they already own. One owner flies the Neo and the Avata 360 through the same goggles and moves between them easily. Another bought the combo with the N3 goggles, motion controller, charger, three batteries and a carry bag, and was happy with the price for everything included.
The adjustments are mostly about the brand rather than the drone itself. One US owner says DJI's insurance was withdrawn there once tariffs came in, so they fly carefully. Someone weighing the drone-only option hopes the goggles and controllers they already have will work with it, but they have not confirmed it yet, so that question is still open.
The one owner who talks about durability says they have never crashed or broken any of their DJI drones or accessories, the Avata 360 included. They put that down to flying cautiously. The longer-term worry is about batteries: one owner expects DJI to stop selling its custom batteries after a couple of years, which would cut short how long the drone stays useful.
There are very few long-term accounts here. Most owners only bought the Avata 360 recently, and nobody describes months of flying, repairs, or batteries wearing out. On this evidence we can't say yet how it holds up over time.

Nothing with a clear majority yet. Owners who raised these subjects were split, or too few to judge.
Nothing has a clear majority against it yet. Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
3 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
The same owner, asked again at each point. Fills in as owners answer.
Two questions: how long you have had it, and anything you would like to say about it. Then we ask again as it ages. This helps our mission.

Before you buy one used, ask the seller: how old it is, whether it was ever repaired and by whom, and whether any of the parts above have been replaced. Ask to see it run. A receipt tells you the warranty start date; most makers honour the term only for the first owner.
