I'm guessing this is different for you living in Dubai, but did you insure your drone? State Farm here in the US offers it as part of a personal articles policy for $60/year which seems like a better deal than the one from DJI.
No insurance, although no crashes yet after 2000+k’s.
I’ve got a single CPL I bought for $20. Only issue is it’s slightly too big, i.e. it touches the side of the gimbal arm when it rotates/calibrates when you turn the Mavic on, hence have to take it off and put it back on whenever you change the battery. The PolarPro ones are quite slim so you can leave them on without any issues. Apparently the DJI ones are quite fragile and break very easily.
