Right now there are some very decent deals in The Netherlands for the MP fly more combo.
Around € 1050,-
Not the DJI store, but a valid Dutch retailer with NL warranty and so on.
That makes the price gap with Chinese sellers less big.
Plus: not having warranty is a pain if something happens that is DJI's fault.
(like a faulty camera, battery etc. etc. )
So yes, you can save some bucks, but you are also taking a risk.
I personally would not buy care refresh. That is like an insurance and you still pay some money. So you essentially have paid for about 1/4 new drone.
I know that is less than the whole price, but still.....
And now for they buying part.
If you are really serious about photography / videography, you won't get it with any of the Mavic drones so far. Small sensor, cheap lens.
But, if you can live with ok quality footage and know how to shoot with these limitations, the current Mavics will get you there.
The MPP is not worth the money if you ask me. 'Just' 3 more minutes and lower noise (which you can also get with the low noise props, sort of).
So that would leave you with MA / MP.
In my opinion the main plusses for MA are
1. the bitrate.
(BUT it seems to have a less sharp lens and more distortion (now that might be solved by a software update, but I'm not sure if DJI can fix that).
2. the gimbal seems better protected. 3. Price
The MP has:
1. more flight time,
2. more flight modes (home lock, course lock, waypoints etc. )
3. AND seems to have a better camera.
What you can do: buy MP / MA now, learn to fly and what your real needs are.
After that decide if MP2 is worth the upgrade for you.
