Do the recently announced DJI 4P Pro camera and the recently announced XTRA Muse 2 PRO share almost the same core specifications? The comparison also becomes more important since we do have only one option available here in the USA. To confirm, are we missing something while picking up the Xtra Muse 2 PRO, or are we making the right decision? The comparison will clear all possible doubts you have related to the Xtra Muse 2 PRO vs DJI Pocket 4 Pro.
So finally, we have a new competitor coming in, and it is now official and will soon become widely available for pre-order on leading United States-based online and retail websites.
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro (also known as Pocket 4P) officially launched in mainland China in mid-June 2026. The Xtra Muse 2 Pro is currently in early access, with a wider US launch expected soon. Here’s a fully updated, cross-verified comparison.

Design & Ergonomics
Both cameras share a similar design and a dual-lens camera-based setup for high-quality videos. Overall, the cameras are the same at the same time.
Why DJI feels slightly more premium thanks to the new zoom rocker and customizable function button, which improve one-handed operation.
The Xtra Muse 2 Pro stands out with two practical improvements that matter in real-world use:
A native 1/4″-20 tripod thread built into the base
A bi-directional flipping screen that works well for both left- and right-handed shooters
The Xtra is also a bit lighter. Many creators consider the native tripod mount a meaningful quality-of-life upgrade.
Image Quality & Dynamic Range
This is the most interesting part of the comparison right now.
Before we jump into the technical terms of the sensors and their characteristics, we have to convey one thing. Both cameras carry almost the same type of sensor and image processor inside them. Even the image-processing algorithms running inside both cameras, responsible for neat and clean video output, implementing IBIS, as well as processing high-quality log files, are very similar. The names are different, obviously, but technically both are the same. So, let’s jump into those technical terms and the differences present in both.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro uses a 1-inch LOFIC sensor on the wide end, which enables up to 17 stops of dynamic range when shooting in D-Log 2. The telephoto uses a smaller 1/1.28-inch sensor at 60mm f/1.8. The LOFIC technology gives the wide lens a hardware advantage in highlight recovery and low-light noise performance.
However, because the two lenses use different sensors, there can be differences in color response and noise characteristics when switching between them. D-Log 2 also locks zoom to 1x only.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro is now officially marketed with up to 17 stops of dynamic range using its 10-bit X-Log 3 profile. The dual-lens system consists of a 1-inch main sensor + a dedicated 3x optical zoom module. Xtra is heavily pushing the 17-stop figure in its marketing and early access materials, positioning the camera as a direct competitor to the DJI Pocket 4 Pro in dynamic range and grading flexibility.
Real-world testing data is still limited, but early low-light and night footage teasers from Xtra look promising, with good detail retention and controlled noise.
Current verdict on image quality: The two cameras are now much closer than previously thought. Both claim 17 stops of dynamic range. DJI has the advantage of LOFIC hardware on the wide lens and more mature color science, while Xtra offers very competitive specs at a lower price.
Video Performance & Features
None of these support 8K but, yes we do have support high-frame-rate 4K recording and 10-bit log profiles suitable for professional color grading. DJI currently has more confirmed details on split frame rates between the two lenses and faster transfer speeds (USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 + Wi-Fi 6).
ActiveTrack-style subject tracking is expected to perform well on both. If you already use DJI microphones or other accessories, the Pocket 4 Pro will integrate more seamlessly.
Price & Availability
This remains the clearest practical difference:
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro: Launched in China at around CNY 3,799. Official US and global availability is still restricted. Grey market options exist but come with support limitations.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro: Early access is currently open in USA. The expected price is in the $6XX range, with early supporters receiving a $60 launch coupon after a $20 refundable deposit.
Pros & Cons
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro
Pros: LOFIC sensor advantage on wide lens, mature color science and processing, physical zoom controls, strong ecosystem, better long-term support and resale value.
Cons: Higher price, limited official availability outside China, potential mismatch between the two different sensors, D-Log 2 restricts zoom.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro
Pros: Strong value proposition, native 1/4″ tripod mount, versatile bi-directional screen, lighter weight, easier availability (especially in the US), expandable storage, matching 17-stop DR claim with X-Log 3.
Cons: Newer brand with unproven long-term support, real-world consistency of 17-stop claim still needs verification through independent tests.
Final Verdict
The gap between these two cameras has narrowed significantly with the latest information on the Xtra Muse 2 Pro.
Choose the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro if:
You want the most refined experience with proven color science and ecosystem support
You prioritize hardware advantages like LOFIC on the wide lens
You can reliably source it through grey market channels
Choose the Xtra Muse 2 Pro if:
You are in USA already connected to DJI eco system
You want excellent specifications at a more accessible price
You value practical design improvements (native mount + screen versatility)
You want easier availability and local support, especially in the US
Our current recommendation: The Xtra Muse 2 Pro has become a much stronger contender. With its 17-stop dynamic range claim via X-Log 3, 3x optical zoom module, and significantly better pricing and availability, it offers very compelling value. Most importantly, the Xtra muse 2 is widely available in USA without any issue.
We’ll continue updating coverage on thenewcamera.com with hands-on testing, sample footage, and India-specific availability information as both cameras become more widely accessible.

Amazon Prime Day is about to start from June 23, 2026, and as we all know, the DJI Mini 4K has emerged as one of the most popular drones ever released, and more than 3,000 to 4,000 units of the DJI Mini 4K drone are being sold on Amazon USA alone. So this Prime Day, we are expecting some massive discounts on the Mini 4K. Still, even before that, some early-bird discounts have already surfaced, so we are listing them here. So keep an eye on this article to have the maximum benefit of Amazon Prime Day Sales, June 2026.
Because the drone weighs just 246g, it does not require FAA registration or Remote ID for recreational flying. This makes it one of the easiest DJI drones to own and fly legally in the US in 2026.
Important Update: Some early Prime Day deals are already live on Amazon. However, the biggest discounts on the DJI Mini 4K and its bundles are expected to appear within the next few days. We will continue updating the prices in this article as the main deals go live between June 23–26. Check the links below for the latest pricing.
Why the DJI Mini 4K Stands Out in 2026
DJI Mini 4K is said to be one of the most affordable and advanced versions of the Mini series of DJI drones. It has been designed for beginners and weighs under 250g, so it doesn’t require any sort of registration for flying. Other than that, it does deliver high-quality 4K video without spending a fortune.
And the standout key features include a built-in 3-axis gimbal that gives you excellent stable video footage on the go. Whether your drone is moving at high speed or staying stable in the middle, you’re always getting very stable footage, which is really impossible from a budget drone available in the USA. Other than that, we are also getting reliable GPS-assisted flight modes and intelligent shooting modes, all packed in a compact body, and that’s one of the biggest reasons for the higher amount of sales of the DJI Mini 4K drone in the United States of America.
DJI Mini 4K Prime Day Deals – Current Best Options
Here are the top bundles available on Amazon right now. Prices are likely to drop further once Prime Day officially begins.
DJI Mini 4K Standard Combo (1 Battery)
Best choice for first-time buyers who want the lowest entry price.
Recommendation: If you plan to fly regularly, the Fly More Combo usually offers better long-term value, especially when it goes on discount during Prime Day.
DJI Mini 4K – FAA Regulations & Legal Flying in the USA
One of the biggest advantages of the DJI Mini 4K is its weight. At 246g, it falls under the 249g limit. As per current FAA rules in 2026:
No registration is required for recreational use.
Remote ID is not mandatory.
You can fly it in most areas without needing an FAA Remote Pilot Certificate (Part 107).
However, you must still follow standard drone rules:
Fly below 400 feet
Keep the drone in your line of sight
Avoid restricted airspace and airports
Respect privacy and no-fly zones
This regulatory simplicity makes the Mini 4K especially attractive for beginners and hobbyists in the United States.

Image and Video Quality
The DJI Mini 4K delivers usable 4K footage for social media, YouTube, real estate, and casual content creation. The 3-axis gimbal does a good job of stabilizing footage even in moderate wind.
However, because it uses a smaller 1/2.3-inch sensor, it has limitations:
Dynamic range is average
Low-light performance is average (noise increases in dim conditions)
Colors are decent but not as rich as the Mini 3 or Mini 4 Pro
For daylight shooting and well-lit environments, the Mini 4K performs well for its price. It is noticeably better than most cheap, no-name drones in terms of colour and stabilisation.
Real-World Flight Performance
Most of us in our team have the same DJI Mini 4K drone. Once it’s fully charged, you get approximately 20 to 24 minutes of flight time per battery, depending upon the wind conditions and the flying style. If you opt for this situation, you are getting a drone that handles wind at normal speeds very well and delivers excellent, stable video footage on the go.
But yes, we have to add one thing here: the drone does not have a proper obstacle avoidance mode that we have in the high-end DJI drones. So you have to be more careful while flying near trees, power lines, or in very tight spaces. Yes, but the GPS-assisted Return to Home works reliably very well.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
No FAA registration or Remote ID required in the US
True 4K video with 3-axis gimbal stabilization
Compact, foldable, and easy to carry
Good wind resistance for its class
Beginner-friendly with intelligent flight modes
Affordable entry into the DJI ecosystem
Cons:
No obstacle avoidance sensors
Average low-light and dynamic range performance
Real-world flight time is lower than lab rating
Older O2 transmission system
Who Should Buy the DJI Mini 4K?
The DJI Mini 4K is best suited for:
Beginners who want their first proper DJI drone
Content creators and vloggers on a budget
Real estate agents looking for simple aerial shots
Travel enthusiasts who want a lightweight drone for trips
Users who want to avoid FAA registration hassle
If you regularly fly in complex environments or need better low-light performance, consider saving for the DJI Mini 3 or waiting for better deals on the Mini 4 Pro during Prime Day.
Final Verdict – Should You Buy the DJI Mini 4K During Prime Day 2026?
The DJI Mini 4K is one of the best budget 4K drones available in 2026, especially if you can buy it during Prime Day at a discounted price.
It offers the right balance of performance, portability, and legal simplicity for most beginners and casual users in the United States. While it lacks obstacle avoidance and has average low-light capabilities, it delivers solid 4K footage in good lighting conditions at a very reasonable price.
If your budget is under $300 and you want a hassle-free drone experience, the Mini 4K is a strong recommendation during Prime Day.
Pro Tip: The Fly More Combo usually gives the best value when it goes on sale.

We were waiting for as much confirmationas we could get over this topic, and now we can confirm and say that yes, the Sony FX3 Mark II is in the announcement pipeline and from the multiple sources, the information that we have received has been summarized in this article. The Sony FX3 is one of the most popular consumer-level filmmakers’ cameras for those who want to have an excellent filming tool without spending a fortune on the CineAlta Series.
Now coming back to the point, new regulatory filings which are straight coming out from China show that Sony has registered a new FX-series model, which is widely believed to be the long-rumored Sony FX3 Mark II, so this does guarantee that yes, FX3 Mark II camera is in the announcement pipeline and once the camera is registered with a regulatory agency, more or less within the next three months, that is on or before September 2026, we will have the announcement of the FX3 Mark II camera if everything goes on schedule.
Shanghai Suoguang (Suoguang Visual Products Co., Ltd.): Exact match. This is the Shanghai manufacturing/registration entity. On April 24, 2026, they registered the ILME-FX* model. They (together with the Wuxi factory) account for the two newest registrations. The earlier A7R VI (ILCE-7RM6 / WW847606) was registered in February 2026 by Japan Sony Corp. So “Soso has now only registered two products” (the April pair) is accurate in context.
Registration Details Leak that made us believe it’s the FX3 II Camera
ILME-FX new model, made in Shanghai by Soguang/Suoguang, WW679476 (or WW679475 in some reports)**: Confirmed. This is the key registration. The ILME- prefix + FX is the standard Sony coding for Cinema Line full-frame models (FX3 was ILME-FX3, FX6 was ILME-FX6, etc.). It has Wi-Fi 6 support. Widely and consistently rumored to be the Sony FX3 II / FX3 successor.

The ILME-FX* prefix is reserved for Sony’s Cinema Line cameras. Combined with the Shanghai manufacturing location and Wi-Fi 6 support, this strongly points to a direct successor to the original FX3 rather than an entirely new model in the lineup.
FX3 II Expected to Retain Compact Form Factor
The early indications that we are getting from the registration details is the compact FX3 Cinema Camera will follow the same run-and-gun philosophy that has been followed since the announcement of the original FX3, which was announced back in 2021. Obviously, just after the announcement, the FX3 series has become one of the most popular series among solo filmmakers for shooting documentaries and commercial projects on a budget. Early indications suggest the new camera will follow the same compact, run-and-gun philosophy that made the original FX3 (2021) a favourite among solo filmmakers, documentary crews, and hybrid shooters.
Battery and Charging
According to the latest registration details, the ILME-FX* model (WW679476) is listed with Sony’s newer NP-SA100 battery – the same higher-capacity battery first introduced with the A7R VI. This marks the first time the NP-SA100 has appeared in a Cinema Line camera registration.
In contrast, the second newly registered model (E-Mount *****, WW721795) continues to use the existing NP-FZ100 battery, along with a lower-power 7.5W charger.
The ILME-FX* registration also indicates support for 30W USB-C Power Delivery charging, which is consistent with the higher-capacity NP-SA100 battery. This suggests Sony may introduce updated charging accessories alongside the new camera.
While the adoption of the NP-SA100 battery should deliver improved runtime, it also raises questions about compatibility with existing FX3 batteries, chargers, and accessories. We expect Sony to clarify this at the time of the official announcement.
FX3 II or FX4? Naming Debate
Recent social media discussion has included speculation about whether Sony might call the new camera FX4 instead of FX3 II.
And this has been started by one of the most trusted sources, Camera Insider, the Twitter account, but what I personally believe here, that is my personal take, that Sony will follow up the regular naming convention, and after Sony FX3, we will have the FX3 Mark II model. If Sony announces the Sony FX4, it will be a step-up model than the FX3 series. And yes, the probability does exist about the appearance of the FX4, since we do have the FX2 announcement in the past, and if Sony wants to continue to explore the possibilities about the expansion of the Sony FX series, then yes, the FX4 does have a strong chance here.
How This Fits Sony’s 2026 Camera Roadmap
Sony has been unusually active with certifications in 2026:
February 2026: A7R VI (ILCE-7RM6) registered
April 24, 2026: ILME-FX* + entry-level model registered
This suggests Sony is preparing multiple launches throughout 2026. The FX3 II is currently tipped for a possible announcement window around August 2026 (ahead of IBC), though this remains speculative.
What We Still Don’t Know
Exact sensor specifications (rumors of a partially stacked sensor for faster readout have circulated but are unconfirmed)
Internal recording formats and frame rate capabilities
Viewfinder or LCD upgrades
Pricing and availability (India/US)
Current FX3 Still Excellent – But Update Is Welcome
The original Sony FX3 remains one of the best compact full-frame cinema cameras available in 2026. The price of the camera is around $4298 at Amazon.com, and only a few units are left in stock. . However, after more than four years on the market, an update addressing rolling shutter, autofocus performance in video, and modern connectivity (Wi-Fi 6, better streaming options) would be very well received.
Bottom Line
Yes, we do need an FX3 II update. The ILME-FX* registration by Shanghai Suoguang is the strongest official signal yet that a new compact Cinema Line camera – almost certainly the FX3 II – is in development. While we don’t have full specifications yet, the manufacturing location, model prefix, and connectivity details align perfectly with expectations for an FX3 successor.
We’ll continue monitoring regulatory filings and credible sources for more details. As always, take all pre-announcement information with the usual grain of salt.

DJI Pocket 3 camera major deals are going on at Amazon USA website, and if you are in the United States of America, then obviously June 2026 does have a lot to offer if you’re planning to buy a pocket gimbal camera at an affordable price, and since Amazon right now is running Father’s Day deals and after June 21, we have another set of Prime day deals coming in, so we will be updating this page regularly to make sure you have the best pricing possible of the DJI Pocket 3 camera.
The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 remains one of the best pocket-sized vlogging cameras available in 2026, under budget. With its 1-inch CMOS sensor, buttery-smooth 3-axis gimbal, 4K/120fps video, and intelligent ActiveTrack, it delivers pro-level footage without the bulk of a traditional camera rig.
Right now on Amazon.com, you can grab excellent deals on both the standard model and the popular Creator Combo – perfect timing ahead of Prime Day (expected June 23–27).
Current Best Deals on Amazon.com (as of June 19, 2026)
Current pricing: Around $539 (save ~$90 off the $629 MSRP)
Includes the full camera + DJI Mic (for significantly better audio), plus extra accessories like a carrying case, battery grip/handle options, and more.
Note: Amazon prices and stock change quickly (especially with Prime Day around the corner). Click the links above for live pricing, any lightning deals, coupons, or bundle offers.
Recommendation for US buyers: Go with the Creator Combo unless you already own good wireless mics. The included DJI Mic makes a massive difference for clear voiceover and interview audio.
Pocket 3 is highly recommended for anyone, those who loves to do vlogging stuff and wants to have a pocket gimbal camera from DJI. The best part is that Pocket 3 is the 3rd generation of the Pocket series gimbal camera from DJI, and available at a budget range. The most important piece of advice is do not save your money in purchasing the standalone version of the vlogging camera. The best thing is to purchase the Creator Combo, where you are getting a microphone which will help you to get clear voice input, and obviously, which is one of the important things for a content creator to have clear audio.
Why the Osmo Pocket 3 Still Dominates in 2026
When DJI launched the Osmo Pocket 3 in late 2023, it quickly became the gold standard for solo content creation. In fact, in several Asian markets, the Pocket 3 reportedly captured over 50% of video camera sales in its category during peak periods — a level of dominance few cameras achieve. Even today, it remains one of the most recommended cameras for creators who want cinematic results without carrying a full rig.
1-inch CMOS sensor — Excellent detail and low-light performance (far better than most phone or action cameras)
4K/120fps + 3-axis mechanical gimbal — Cinematic, shake-free footage straight out of camera
ActiveTrack 4.0 — Smart face/object tracking that actually works reliably
Rotatable touchscreen — Designed for vloggers (flip it for perfect selfie framing)
Pocket-sized portability — Take it on every US road trip, national park visit, or city adventure without thinking twice
Long battery life + easy expansion in the Combo
Bottom Line
These are some of the best prices we’ve seen on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 in months. With Prime Day coming soon, now is a smart time to buy if you’ve been waiting.
We are waiting for the Viltrox mirrorless camera. Still, today, what we have seen in a Weibo post is really surprising: a small yellow plastic camera labelled “Viltrox Toy Camera” has started circulating on Chinese social media. Which is shared by the Weibo account, the photos show a compact device inside a yellow box, complete with retro-style stripes and the marking “1839”.
At first glance, it looks like the long-rumoured Viltrox camera might have finally appeared. However, a closer look suggests otherwise.
It’s a toy and not officially confirmed by Viltrox itself; it looks very much like the Kodak Keychain Camera, which is ultra-popular among Gen Z and newbie bloggers.
What Exactly Is Shown in the Images?
As you can see, the camera is incredible, small, and for sure, this is not made for professional photographers or the rumoured L/Z Mount mirror camera that we are seeing right now.
The Kokdal Keychain-style camera from Viltrox, which we have mentioned above, features a fixed lens, a basic viewfinder, and a simple flash unit on the side. The design has a playful, retro aesthetic with horizontal bands in yellow, blue, and beige.
No Official Word from Viltrox
Maybe these are some early pictures of the upcoming Viltrox tiny kids camera, but for now, we have checked all the official media pages of the lens maker, and we are not able to find any authentic set of information that tells us that Viltrox has officially entered the camera business with this tiny compact camera.
The company has been actively releasing new autofocus lenses (including recent EVO series models) and accessories like flashes, but there has been no indication of a camera body — toy or otherwise — entering production.
How Does This Relate to Existing Viltrox Camera Rumours?
We do have very strong rumours related to the development of the Viltrox Mirrorless camera. This news and information have been floating around for months. The latest speculation, reported earlier this month, suggested a possible Nikon Z-mount model. At the beginning, we got strong hints related to the development of L-Mount-based Mirrorless camera from Viltrox, so its all Chaos for now in the rumour world. All these claims, however, remain unconfirmed and are based largely on forum discussions and a Chinese patent filing.
In the past, Viltrox has clarified that it is focused on lenses and camera accessories rather than manufacturing camera bodies itself.
For now, any actual Viltrox camera body remains speculative. We’ll continue monitoring for credible updates from official sources.

XTRA has finally opened Early Access to the MUSE 2 PRO gimbal camera to those who are specifically waiting for the DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera announcement in the United States of America. As we all know, DJI is facing some sort of ban issues for drones and all that stuff, and despite having the FCC certification for their products (specifically, we are talking about pocket 4p and pocket 4), they are not able to make it to the United States of America. But now we do have a solid option, a solid option and a true alternative to the DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera, which is available for pre-order, and the surprising factor is that the overall cost of the DJI Pocket 4 Pro alternative is less than the recently announced Insta360 Luna Pro.
How to Pre-Book Your Xtra MUSE 2 PRO Camera
XTRA has officially opened Early Access for its upcoming MUSE 2 PRO dual-lens pocket gimbal camera. The brand is offering early supporters a $20 refundable deposit in exchange for a $60 launch coupon and free Priority Express Shipping in the US.
The Early Access Deal
XTRA is running a limited Early Access program with the following benefits:
$20 refundable deposit → $60 Launch Day Coupon
Free Priority Express Shipping (US mainland)
Only 10,000 spots available
This is not a full pre-order. You’ll still need to complete the purchase after launch using the coupon. The deposit remains fully refundable if you change your mind before using the coupon.

Why This Matters: DJI Pocket 4 Pro Availability Issues
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro was expected to be a major upgrade with its dual-lens design (1-inch sensor + 3x zoom). However, like several recent DJI products, it has not received full clearance for official sales in the United States.
Many American creators are now stuck choosing between:
Grey market imports (with warranty and customs risks)
Sticking with the older Pocket 3
Looking for new alternatives
This is exactly where XTRA is positioning the MUSE 2 PRO.
Video: 4K up to 120fps (some reports suggest 4K/240fps slow-motion capability)
Color & Dynamic Range: 10-bit X-Log profile with up to 14–17 stops of dynamic range
Storage: 103–128GB internal storage
Stabilization: 3-axis mechanical gimbal
Screen: 2-inch rotatable/flip OLED touchscreen
Other features: Subject tracking, fast autofocus, compact pocketable design (~180g)
Xtra Muse 2 PRO Price
XTRA has not officially confirmed the final price, but the Instagram announcement mentioned it will start at “just $6XX”. Based on current market positioning and community speculation, $649 appears to be the most likely launch price for the standalone unit.
Here’s how it compares:

Final Verdict
The XTRA MUSE 2 PRO is shaping up to be one of the more credible alternatives to the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro, especially for creators in the United States who are struggling with availability. At an expected price of around $649 (and potentially lower with the Early Access coupon), it offers strong value on paper — particularly with its large internal storage and dual-lens design.
Whether it can match DJI’s software polish and ecosystem remains to be seen. For now, the $20 deposit looks like a low-risk way to secure better pricing if you’re interested in this category.

So, finally, we have a new teaser from XTRAshowcasing the real video quality of the upcoming XTRA MUSE 2 PRO. And not only that, the major specs of the camera have also been revealed in this teaser, so let’s discuss the set of available and updated information about the upcoming XTRA MUSE 2 PRO.
Xtra has just dropped a fresh teaser reel showcasing the XTRA MUSE 2 PRO test unit – and it’s the clearest look yet at what the upcoming pocket gimbal camera can do.
The post was initially surfaced on @xtratech_official on June 11. The short cinematic reel focuses heavily on night and low-light performance while highlighting several high-end features that position the Muse 2 Pro as a serious alternative to the unreleased DJI Osmo Pocket 4P in the US market.
Xtra MUSE 2 PRO Confirmed Core Specification
1-inch CMOS sensor
3X / 70mm dedicated focal Length based Lens
10-bit X-Log 3 color profile
17-stop dynamic range (one of the biggest talking points in the comments)
Strong night/low-light footage performance
103GB internal storage
So all these specifications that you have seen of the upcoming Muse 2 Pro camera, and all these aspects, are confirmed. The most interesting part is the footage that we have seen from the camera, which is also very impressive. So overall, it will be a very tough competitor for the existing Insta360 Luna Ultra camera in the United States of America.
The reel shows smooth gimbal movement in dark conditions with clean detail and controlled noise — exactly the kind of real-world demonstration creators have been waiting for.
Xtra itself calls it “an extra choice” worth keeping an eye on in the crowded pocket camera space.
Latest Launch Timeline (June 2026 Update)
According to Xtra’s previous official communications and recent updates:
US launch window: Summer 2026 (most likely mid-to-late July)
Creator selection program reportedly begins around June 15, and many of the creators have already been selected
Highest chance for official announcement and pre-orders: late June to early July 2026
Shipping to customers is expected shortly after pre-orders open
The Muse 2 Pro is expected to feature a 1-inch CMOS sensor, 3-axis mechanical gimbal, ActiveTrack 7.0, rotatable/flip touchscreen (with improved dual-side functionality), and significantly higher internal storage than the current Muse.
Why This Matters
We all know that the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 / 4P series remains limited in official US availability. Xtra (a US-registered brand) continues to fill the gap for DJI loyal customers who are eagerly waiting for the POCKET 4 PRO, with very similar hardware at potentially more accessible pricing and faster local availability.
The original Xtra Muse already received a major firmware update earlier this year that added direct Bluetooth support for DJI Mic Mini and Mic 2, so now the DJI ECO system supports the Xtra Muse Gimbal cameras, including the upcoming Muse 2 PRO
Would you pick the Xtra Muse 2 Pro over waiting for the DJI Pocket 4P (if/when it becomes widely available in the US)? Let us know in the comments.
