Just a few hours ago, one of the most trusted DJI leakers, Igor, posted a fresh video showing a new drone prototype being tested by one of the experienced FPV testers at an unknown place.
The video is not that clear due to quality issues, as usual. These kinds of early prototype leaked videos are generally blurry, specifically captured in a way to create sensation while also protecting the identity of the upcoming drone. Still, with the help of AI and image upscaling software, the drone design has become clearer to us, which indicates that the drone that is being tested seems like an early prototype of DJI Neo 3, specifically if you look at the structure of the guard protectors of the drone.
“👉Well, well, well…DJI, what are you doing? Let me think: Neo 3 or Avata 3🫣”
The 16th leaked video has been uploaded, and it created massive excitement among the fans, and yes, a lot of them are claiming that it looks like a budget version of the 360 drone mixed with the Neo design. So there is some possibility that we may have a 360 in late 2026 or early 2027.
Why the Guard Pattern Doesn’t Match Avata 3 Drone Expectations
Recall our earlier report (March 21, 2026): A trusted Chinese source who actually test-flew the Avata 3 prototype told drone creator Mauro Tandoi that the next Avata will feature a panoramic dual-camera gimbal similar to the Avata 360’s 360° viewing angle. The flight feel was reportedly not as sharp as the Avata 2.
Traditional Avata bodies (Avata 1, 2, and the just-launched 360) use rugged cinewhoop designs with smaller, asymmetrical bottom/rear vents for ESCs and motors. Nothing like these oversized side grills. The March leak focused entirely on the gimbal upgrade — no mention of a radical body redesign.
Or Is This an Advanced Neo 3 Whoop Drone Body?
The compact size and ultra-symmetric design feel very “Neo.” The original DJI Neo is the palm-sized beginner whoop that’s insanely popular for its throw-and-go simplicity. A Neo 3 with upgraded ventilation for longer flight times, stronger motors, or even hybrid 360° capabilities would make total sense as an evolution.
Some replies to Quadro_News even called it “Neo 360” or compared it to the HoverAir Aqua. The grill pattern is far more Neo-like than Avata-like.
Timeline: How Soon Could We See This?
Avata 360: Just launched in China (March 26, 2026) and now shipping globally.
Avata 3: Still on track for late 2027 per the credible March leak. Early field testing of supporting hardware (like a new controller) fits perfectly.
Neo 3: Not overdue for a quick refresh. No official leaks yet, but DJI loves testing radical ideas on the cheaper Neo line first.
The fact that DJI is already doing outdoor multi-device power testing in April 2026 means development is moving faster than the 2027 timeline suggested.
Bottom Line: Most Likely a Prototype Controller for Avata 3 (or Neo 3 Drone)
We’re leaning 65% toward a new FPV 360 Style budget drone for beginners /whoop controller with those signature grills for thermal performance, and 35% toward an advanced Neo 3 Update. The grill pattern simply doesn’t match any Avata drone DNA we’ve seen.

Well, this is really on top of the rest of the leaks that we have published recently, better to say kind of a breakthrough news that we have spotted – DJI has just uploaded a striking new promotional banner for the DJI Avata 360 directly on its official Amazon US storefront. Confirmation from the DJI itself. The banner confirms the product name, the “8K Flagship 360° Drone” positioning, and the bold tagline “Above It All, See It All.” This is the clearest visual proof yet for US buyers — the banner is live right now on the official DJI store page on Amazon.com. The release date is on March 26, 2026. Now waiting to get more confirmation about the shipping date of the upcoming drone
Below we have the price comparison. If you have missed our previous post comparing it to the Antigravity price with Avata360, even before that, take a look at the first hands-on report and reviews that have popped up for the Avata 360, which are very exciting, as well as a revolutionary upgrade over the drone while using it for the first time..
This is the most unique part of the entire drone. Of course, it has a full 360 camera, but how does it actually shoot 360° when one lens is facing you? The second camera is on the opposite side.
What I loved most: the camera actually rotates during takeoff and landing. It spins from the 360 position so the top camera moves to the bottom and vice versa. There are little protective feet/pads at the bottom, so when you land, you’re never touching the lens itself. It sits perfectly protected. You can read the first review here of the Avata 360
Prices are based on current official Antigravity bundles (USD) and leaked European Avata 360 figures converted at ~1 EUR ≈ 1.15 USD (mid-March 2026 rates). US pricing for Avata 360 may adjust slightly at launch, but is expected to align closely or be even more competitive.
The DJI Avata 360 comparison that we have done clearly shows that the core specifications [core specs comparison at this page] that we are getting inside the 360 drone are far better than what we have in the Antigravity. Even though detailed comparison videos will be uploaded once the drone becomes official, if you compare and look at the pricing that we have for now, you can clearly see that the Avata 360 is going to cost you a lot compared to the A1. Other than that, we have a dual operational mode — one is the FPV style, and the other is the regular 360 drone, so technically the 360 is more advanced, and the pricing is low.
Why the DJI Avata 360 Matters for US Drone Pilots
This is DJI’s first true hybrid FPV + 360° spherical drone. It combines the immersive flight experience of the Avata series with full 360° capture
This drone gives you one of the widest ranges in terms of dynamic experience, where you can capture in 360° and recompose it later as per your own convenience. Other than that, as a standalone system, the tight shooting experience that you get with this drone is something that is kind of unforgettable with a portable 360 drone, this could be the most versatile drone DJI has ever released under 250 g–500 g class regulations.
Stay tuned — we will update this article once the second pre-order links and full specifications drop on March 30.

DJI Avata 360 is about to become official, and the price is very clear to us thanks to leaks from European retailers. The authentic price sheet just before the announcement has been made available to us by one of the most trusted and authentic sources, Jasper Ellens. Also, we may have a $10 to $15 price difference in the final pricing due to changes in currency values, since they do not always remain the same. And we calculated the price of the Avata 360 kit from the European retailer price list.
Here we are comparing the price of the DJI Avata 360 with the Insta360 Antigravity A1 drone. Now, just after the official announcement of the Antigravity A1, it is not as popular among users as it was hyped up before the announcement. There may be two reasons behind that. The first and foremost is the price, which we are going to compare against the Avata 360, and you will have a clear idea of the difference you have to pay for choosing the Antigravity A1.
Other than that, the biggest factor is the limitation of 360-degree view capture. Yes, it may sound exciting for some users that they are able to capture a full 360-degree view, but some users still prefer to have FPV-style shooting, or they simply want to use the normal front camera. In that case, the 360 video workflow can become a problem for them, since they have to process it, capture the frame, recompose it, and handle the entire editing process.
Why the 360° Drone Battle Matters in 2026
Traditional FPV drones like the DJI Avata 2 excel in agile flight, but 360° models add full-sphere capture for VR. The best part is the new Avata 360 can do both with its rotating gimbal; it can shoot traditional as well as 360 style shooting. Technically, you get true creative freedom with Avata 360. The Antigravity A1 (launched late 2025) pioneered the category with its ultra-light 249g design and Insta360 integration. Now, DJI enters with ecosystem advantages, replaceable lenses, and aggressive pricing.
Yes, we will be doing specification comparison, as well as price comparison, altogether
Prices are based on current official Antigravity bundles (USD) and leaked European Avata 360 figures converted at ~1 EUR ≈ 1.15 USD (mid-March 2026 rates). US pricing for Avata 360 may adjust slightly at launch, but is expected to align closely or be even more competitive.
Bottom line on pricing: Even DJI’s top Premium Combo (~$1,333) costs less than Antigravity’s entry-level Standard Bundle ($1,599). Accessories tell the same story – DJI batteries at ~$91 vs. higher Antigravity extras, and prop sets at just $10.

Who Should Buy Which in the US?
Choose DJI Avata 360 if budget, ecosystem compatibility, or value is your priority. At roughly half the cost for similar bundles, it’s a game-changer for hobbyists, YouTubers, and pros upgrading without breaking the bank.
Choose Antigravity A1 if you need the lightest 360 drone, unique Insta360 editing tools, or don’t mind paying extra for innovation. It’s positioned as luxury, but recent discounts (sometimes 15% off) narrow the gap slightly.
With the DJI Avata 360 launch just days away (March 26, 2026), expect pre-order buzz and potential little bit US pricing tweaks. The price difference makes DJI the clear value leader in the 2026 360° drone race.

The article “DJI Avata 360 vs Insta360 Antigravity A1: Massive Price Difference in 2026 – Which 360° FPV Drone Wins on Value?” was written on 6:48 am, Monday, 16 March 2026,Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
We have the first review of the DJI Avata 360, and this review has been posted before its official announcement. It seems unique and unusual. But yes, we do have the review, so we are sharing some of the important parts of the review here at thenewcamera.com, so you can have an early glimpse of the DJI Avata 360 drone. What did he like and what didn’t he like about the drone?
Design of the DJI Avata 360 – Size, Shape & Comparisons
As you can see when placing it next to the DJI Avata 2, the DJI Avata 360 is a little bit bigger but noticeably slimmer. The Avata 2 sticks up a lot taller, while the Avata 360 has that bigger front bump because of the new 360 camera.
Compared to the original Avata 1, this one is definitely larger, but the Avata 1 was a screamer — super loud — and its battery sat up much taller.
One of the most fun combos I tried? The DJI Avata 360 is paired with the Neo 2. It just looks and feels like a perfect match.
The Revolutionary 360 Camera System on the DJI Avata 360
This is the most unique part of the entire drone. Of course, it has a full 360 camera, but how does it actually shoot 360° when one lens is facing you? The second camera is on the opposite side.
What I loved most: the camera actually rotates during takeoff and landing. It spins from the 360 position so the top camera moves to the bottom and vice versa. There are little protective feet/pads at the bottom, so when you land, you’re never touching the lens itself. It sits perfectly protected.
I really like how compact DJI made the entire camera system is at the front. And yes — full propeller guards all the way around, just like the other Avata models.
Replaceable Lenses – A Huge Upgrade on the DJI Avata 360
Next thing I pulled out of the bag that made me extremely happy: replaceable lenses for the Avata 360. Something every creator wished we had on the Osmo 360. DJI listened — if you crash and scratch the top or bottom lens, you can now simply replace them. Huge win for the DJI Avata 360.
Flying the DJI Avata 360 in Snow & Rain – Weather Confidence
On the second day, we headed out for real flying… and it was snowing and raining heavily all morning. The crazy part? DJI didn’t hesitate at all. They had zero worries about us flying the DJI Avata 360 in the snow or rain.
Of course, the footage wasn’t clear because rain and snow were hitting the lenses, but the fact that DJI trusted the drone so much in those conditions instantly built confidence for all of us. It’s not waterproof or submersible, but their relaxed attitude told us everything we needed to know.
How We Piloted the DJI Avata 360
They gave us the DJI RC 2 controller, and everyone loved it — finally, a standard remote with a built-in screen so you can fly the way you’re used to with other drones.
You can also fly the DJI Avata 360 with:
DJI N3 goggles
RC 3 controllers
Motion Controller 3 (for that immersive FPV experience)
After the first few flights, one thing stood out immediately: the DJI transmission is rock solid — exactly what separates DJI from everyone else. People were pushing the DJI Avata 360 above dense forests, in snow and rain, and the connection never wavered.
When I was down to my last battery and a half, I just did some free flying. The smoothness, the flight characteristics, the overall dynamics — everything feels exactly like you expect from a DJI Avata. Super predictable and confidence-inspiring.
Editing Footage from the DJI Avata 360
Editing is super simple using the same DJI 360 Studio app you already know from the Osmo 360. Just use AI tracking or keyframe options, choose your angles and positions, and export. Easy.
My Honest First Impressions of the DJI Avata 360
Flight-experience-wise, my first impressions are very positive. It just works exactly like you expect a premium DJI drone to work. The transmission in tough weather impressed me the most, and the rotating 360 camera system is genuinely cool.
I’ve now flown the DJI Avata 360 for several weeks here in sunny California too, and the image quality is outstanding. Full specs breakdown, side-by-side comparisons with the Avata 2, Avata 1, and Neo 2 are coming in the full review very soon.
This was the first part of the review – a more intense review on its way and posted later this month

DJI Avata 360 USA Price 2026: Know How Much It Will Cost You in Dollars
New updates on the upcoming DJI Avata 360 drone have emerged. A teaser video was uploaded to DJI’s official X account. That clearly means DJI has now started teasing the DJI Avata 360 via official channels, and the announcement is very near to us. Possibly within a week or two, we are going to have the official DJI Avata 360 announcement.
We have told you a while ago in our article that the DJI Avata 360 and Pocket 4 Standard Edition announcement is expected in March 2026
This post also includes close-up images of the 360-degree drone camera module. Other than that, we also have some authentic, real-world images and packaging box leaks, as well as Avata 360 Pricing and expected arrival time. In this article, we will cover everything.
If you are completely new here, let me tell you that the Avata 360 is DJI’s first 360-degree drone, coming to compete with the Insta360 Antigravity A1. However, the DJI Avata 360 features a rotatable camera gimbal, which makes it a traditional FPV drone like the earlier Avata series. But with a single click, the gimbal rotates and the dual-camera setup gets activated, making it a true two-in-one drone.
Now, let’s talk about the latest updates we have related to the 360 drone.
DJI AVATA 360 Sample Video: Official Announcement Soon
So this section of the page will be updated continuously with upcoming leaks and information. It is very much confirmed that the DJI Avata 360 announcement will happen in the month of March. Not only that, trusted sources like Jasper Ellens are continuously tracking last-minute leaks, so this page will be regularly updated with every possible piece of information we receive—not only from Jasper Ellens, but also from our own sources.
DJI Avata 360 Closeup Images: A Detailed Look at the Design
We are really very much surprised recently, since in the past few weeks we have witnessed a lot of content that is authentic and coming from trusted sources like @MauroTandoi, and all the images we have analysed with cross verification have proven to be 100% real. Starting from the close-up images of the DJI Avata 360 drone camera gimbal, they give us a clear basic view of the camera module.
In these images, you can clearly see the DJI Avata 360 branding alongside the lens placement. Everything is very clear in the close-up images.
DJI Avata 360 drone, revealing a sleek, cinewhoop-style build that’s slightly larger than the DJI Avata 2 (weighing in at around 377 grams for the predecessor). These images highlight the drone’s dual-lens setup, borrowed from the DJI Osmo 360, which enables seamless switching between spherical 360-degree capture and single-lens FPV mode.
The front-facing camera module stands out with its tiltable housing, allowing for immersive 8K panorama video. Close-ups show integrated prop guards for safer indoor flights, omnidirectional sensors for obstacle avoidance, and a compact yet robust frame designed for wind resistance and agility.
All these leaks have given us an absolute idea of how the DJI Avata 360 looks. The best thing that happened recently, and which was also checked by NotebookCheck, is the DJI Avata 360 retail box leak.
This time again, it has been said that it looks 100% real, since the images are not only captured from the front of the box, but also from the side. So obviously, we can have a look at the listed details as well.
DJI Avata 360 Retail Box Leak: What’s Inside the Package?
Before we discuss the packaging box of the DJI Avata 360, a lot of leaked images were shared earlier. Many of those were absolutely fake, but this one seems to be highly legit.
That’s why here at TheNewCamera.com, we always try to share the best set of possible moments and the most accurate information available.
What we have actually seen in the packaging box of the DJI Avata 360, first of all, is very clearly visible that it is coming with a bundle option box. Inside, we obviously get the Avata 360 drone alongside the RC Motion controller and multiple batteries. It’s a complete package for any professional who is willing to buy a two-in-one Avata 360 / FPV drone.
One standout leak shows the “Fly More Combo (Three Batteries)” bundle, which includes the drone, a single battery in the standard kit, and extras like propellers and charging hubs. The design mirrors DJI’s minimalist aesthetic, with clear labelling for easy unboxing.
DJI Avata 360 Hands-On Footage and Early Impressions
Hands-on footage from beta testers has started appearing, including a 16-second instructional video extracted from DJI Goggles beta software. These clips demonstrate battery insertion, activation, and basic flight maneuvers, showcasing the drone’s low-latency O4/O5 transmission system for ranges over 20km. Screenshots from the footage reveal epic 360-degree views and smooth FPV transitions, perfect for creative content creators.
DJI Avata 360 Specs: What to Expect
Based on consolidated leaks, the DJI Avata 360 specs include top-tier features tailored for both beginners and pros. Here’s a breakdown in table form for easy reference:
Camera System: 8K/60fps HDR panorama video, tiltable module allowing single-lens FPV mode for forward-facing views similar to the Avata 2.
Propellers and Design: 4-blade propellers (up from 3 on the Avata 2),
cinewhoop-style frame with full spherical guards for safe indoor flying, and a grey body with DJI branding.
Obstacle Avoidance: 4-6 front sensors (no rear sensors confirmed), enhancing safety during dynamic flights.
Transmission and Compatibility: O4 system for stable, long-range signal; fully compatible with DJI Goggles N3, Motion Controllers, and the DJI RC 2 (introduced with the Air 3S and Mini 4 Pro)—no upgrade to OcuSync O5.
Battery and Flight Time: Upgraded battery life for extended sessions, though exact times remain unconfirmed.
Additional Modes: Smart features like obstacle sensing, follow-me tracking, and automated paths, making it accessible for beginners and pros alike.
These specs position the Avata 360 as a hybrid powerhouse, blending FPV agility with 360-degree capabilities.
DJI Avata 360 Release Date and Price: March 2026 Launch Confirmed
The DJI Avata 360 release date is now pegged for March 2026, starting in China before a global rollout in early April. Originally rumored for February, delays due to supply issues pushed it back, but FCC approval ensures compliance.
Pricing rumors for the DJI Avata 360 draw from Chinese leaks, with estimated global figures mirroring the Avata 2’s launch strategy. Here’s a breakdown:

Updated list of upcoming DJI drones, cameras, and other products set to arrive in the next few months. And here is the catch, in the article below, we have not only discussed the names of the products, but we also have rumored specifications, and specifically, some new features, enhanced camera sensors in Pocket 4 pro, 5G transmission in DJI pro drones, and AI-driven capabilities coming inside future drones as explained in the article below. The DJI roadmap for 2026 we are discussing is fuelled by FCC filings, retailer leaks, and insider rumours.
This in-depth guide explores what we expect DJI to announce soon, covering DJI’s upcoming products for 2026. We have summarised all the past articles we have published here at TheNewCamera.com, SO, lets start exploring the details without losing any time
1. DJI Osmo Pocket 4: Imminent Release for Vloggers and Content Creators
The DJI Pocket 4 is no longer just rumors – it’s here in the real world!. We have real-life footage of the DJI Pocket 4 camera, and this is what the leaker says. The leaker is an official DJI store in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and according to them, a customer holding the DJI Pocket 4 camera visited their store. They had it with them and created a video, which they posted on their official Instagram handle.
This 33-second Instagram Reel, uploaded on February 15, 2026, by the official DJI-authorized retailer DronesKaki, captures the first hands-on DJI Pocket 4 footage outside of China leaks. It’s perfect for vloggers eyeing the DJI Pocket 4 release date, DJI Osmo Pocket 4 specs, and DJI Pocket 4 Malaysia availability. We’ve embedded the video, broken down the highlights, compared it to the Pocket 3, and included the latest leaked specs.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Standard Model Specs, Features, and Leaks

2. DJI Avata 360: 360-Degree FPV Drone Set for March Debut
We are on the verge of the DJI Avata 360 announcement, the 360 drone. We have covered almost all the possible updates and a reliable set of information related to the upcoming drone, but now it’s about to arrive within a few weeks. The drone pricing we leaked back in January still seems valid, and many websites are still re-sharing it. Now, let’s jump into the content to explore all the latest possible details of the upcoming 360 drone.
Camera System: 8K/60fps HDR panorama video, tiltable module allowing single-lens FPV mode for forward-facing views similar to the Avata 2.
Propellers and Design: 4-blade propellers (up from 3 on the Avata 2),
cinewhoop-style frame with full spherical guards for safe indoor flying, and a grey body with DJI branding.
Obstacle Avoidance: 4-6 front sensors (no rear sensors confirmed), enhancing safety during dynamic flights.
Transmission and Compatibility: O4 system for stable, long-range signal; fully compatible with DJI Goggles N3, Motion Controllers, and the DJI RC 2 (introduced with the Air 3S and Mini 4 Pro)—no upgrade to OcuSync O5.
Battery and Flight Time: Upgraded battery life for extended sessions, though exact times remain unconfirmed.
Additional Modes: Smart features like obstacle sensing, follow-me tracking, and automated paths, making it accessible for beginners and pros alike.
A breakthrough in DJI Avata 360 rumours comes from a leaked 16-second instructional video discovered in the DJI Goggles beta software. This low-resolution clip (32×32 pixels) demonstrates the battery insertion and activation process for the Avata 360, signalling that the drone is in the hands of early testers and reviewers. The video also includes the first official box image and a side-by-side comparison with the DJI Avata 2, revealing the Avata 360 as slightly larger than its 377-gram predecessor.

3. DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro: For Pro Vloggers and Content Creators
The DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera is well on its way to the United States of America, as the FCC ID for this new camera has been spotted clearly, signalling a new model code other than the registered model code of the DJI Pocket 4 that we have already published on our website. From the freshly leaked FCC documents, we can confirm the model is listed as “Osmo Pocket 4P” with the specific model number PP-041. The FCC ID is 2ANDR-PP041, granted under the applicant SZ DJI Osmo Technology Co., Ltd., with the declaration signed by Niki Fang, Certification Supervisor, on 2025-12-15
The Pocket 4 Pro camera looks very similar to the Air3S drone camera system. Yes, the Pro 4 Pro does have a dual camera system in it. Although we have one blurry front pic of the pocket 4 pro that we have shared above.
DJI Pocket 4 PRO Arrival Time
DJI Pocket 4 Pro is registered/granted FCC certification on December 22, 2025. The standard 180-day short-term confidentiality period (which often applies to exhibits like internal photos, block diagrams, schematics, and user manuals) would end on June 20, 2026 (a Saturday).
So, we have the DJI Pocket 4 Standard Coming in March 2026, and the DJI Pocket 4 Pro announcement is expected sometime in May or June 2026.
4. DJI Lito X1 (and Lito 1): Compact Drones for Beginners and Pros
Initially, it started with FCC ID leaks, which confirmed the arrival of the Lito Series in the United States of America. DJI Lito 1 and the DJI Lito X1 are the two drones that are already registered in FCC ID and are expected around the second and third quarter of 2026.
“DJI Lito X1 leaks” are heating up, with this sub-250g series positioned as successors to the Mini lineup. FCC approvals in late 2025 confirm global plans.
Rumored Specs & Features:
Design: Foldable, lightweight (<250g for no registration); 360° obstacle avoidance with fisheye optics and infrared sensors.
Transmission: O5/SDR+5G for 20km+ range and BVLOS flights; Wi-Fi 6/BLE support.
Flight Time: Standard battery ~30 min; Plus ~50 min.
Well, it may be DJI’s strategy; they could have leaked it intentionally to create pre-announcement buzz about which product is actually coming under the branding of Lito.
5. DJI OSMO 360 II: Registered at FCC ID
The DJI Osmo 360 II (also known as the next-generation DJI Osmo 360 or Osmo 360 2) is the upcoming successor to DJI’s first dedicated 360-degree action camera. We have spotted its listing at FCCID. Registration was completed on December 9, 2025.
The certification filing confirms DJI is actively preparing a refreshed 360 action camera with modern wireless capabilities, addressing demands for faster workflows in vlogging, action sports, VR, and immersive content. The “Pass” result and non-covered status clear the path for global availability, including the US market.
The sensor is expected to remain the same, with advancement in imageprocessor and overall functionality, the camera is expected to arrive in the first half of 2026.
6. DJI Mic Mini 2S Transmitter: FCC Filings Revealed
So finally, we have a new DJI Mic Mini 2S transmitter, which the TheNewCamera.com team recently spotted. The FCC ID for the Mic Mini 2 registration was also published on December 3rd, 2025, but today, on January 31, 2026, we have spotted another listing for the DJI Mic Mini 2S transmitter. The big thing is that even the DJI Mic Mini 2 hasn’t been announced yet, and we now also have the DJI Mic Mini 2S. So let’s explore the specs and other details we have for the upcoming Mic Mini 2S transmitter via the FCC ID, the possible pricing, and the potential arrival time.
Public FCC records, dated around December 23, 2025, explicitly name the device as the “DJI Mic Mini 2S Transmitter” under model DMMT03. Filed by SZ DJI Osmo Technology Co., Ltd., Obviously, this is a clear attempt to make a possible way to announce the DJI Mic Mini 2S in the United States of America in 2026, and this will be one of the continuous efforts of DJI to keep their products available and updated in the United States marketplace. That’s why they completed the registration just before the December 23, 2025, ban. More details here

DJI Pocket 4 detail box leaked today, and the information is coming from one of the highly trusted sources, Igor Bogdanov (@Quadro_News). The packaging box reveals that the gimbal camera announcement is very near to us. A few days ago, we shared with you the screenshot of the DJI China retailers’ smartphone screenshots, where they have the stock of the Pocket 4 camera. Other than that, just a few days ago, one of our subscribers shared an Amazon Germany premature listing of the DJI Pocket 4 camera, where we also saw leaked specs of the upcoming camera. Now we are going to discuss all together below in a very short and concise way, so let’s jump into the content.
Decoding the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Packaging Leak
The retail box shows us the standard version and not the Pro ( one carrying the dual-lens module setup), and since the image is shared by a trusted source, we do not believe it is anything silly. The standard version is coming.
Shared via X post ID: 2014597722104349118, the packaging showcases the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 in its Creator Combo variant:
Eye-catching “DJI OSMO POCKET 4” text with the signature pocket-sized design, featuring a rotating touchscreen displaying a stunning landscape.
Intuitive NEW controls for zooming in, including a joystick, record button, and microphone grille.
Warehouse clues like the “Do Not Open Till Confirmation” sticker signal pre-launch inventory.
You have clearly seen that all these things written above are clearly visible on the packaging box of the upcoming Pocket 4 camera, and yes, I am really disappointed that only a single-lens-module-based Pocket 4 camera is coming. I was actually expecting that we were going to have the dual-camera-module-based Pocket 4, but later on, for sure, we are going to have the Pro Pocket 4 series camera announcement in the future. But let’s discuss the core specifications of the upcoming Pocket 4 camera that we have already seen via the Amazon Germany listing. Let’s have a roundup of the upcoming Pocket 4 camera core specifications.
Confirmed Specs for the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Standard Model – Amazon Listing Verified
The Pocket 4 camera seems like a subtle upgraded version of the Pocket 3, not much of a difference that we were actually expecting. The standard DJI Osmo Pocket 4 builds on the Pocket 3 with targeted enhancements, and the now-verified Amazon Germany listing (pulled shortly after surfacing) nails the details we’ve covered extensively. This accidental reveal described a vlogging-optimised camera, and recent leaks corroborate it as accurate for the base model:
Sensor: 1-inch equivalent CMOS (listed as 2.5 cm), optimized for superior low-light performance and dynamic range—matching the evolutionary upgrade from the Pocket 3.
Video Recording: 4K/120fps for buttery-smooth slow-motion and high-frame-rate footage, a clear step up from the Pocket 3’s 4K/60fps standard.
Stabilization: Advanced 3-axis gimbal for rock-steady shots, refined for even better handling.
Focusing and Tracking: Fast autofocus with intelligent face/object detection, ensuring sharp subject lock during dynamic vlogs.
Additional Features: Seamless YouTube integration for live streaming and uploads via the DJI Mimo app, plus extended battery life (20-30% boost to over 200 minutes).
The Creator Combo is poised to include creator essentials:
Wide-angle lens attachment
Battery handle for prolonged shooting
Mini tripod/grip
Protective carrying case
New accessories like the “FrameTap” from FCC documents
For a quick comparison:

As from the initial set of comparison, you can see there are not big differences between the two models, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and the DJI Osmo Pocket 4. So if you ask someone who already owns the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 camera, then it’s not the best time to upgrade your camera. You should wait for the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro. It’s going to be a new variant with extra features. Let’s wait for that. But yes, for now, this is a very little subtle change in the core specifications of the upcoming DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera.
Dual-Camera DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro: Specs Confirmed, But Delays and US Availability Issues
Before we move forward, let’s have a look at the leaked core specifications of the upcoming DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro camera. Some people are waiting for the Pro version, but at the very same time, initially what we are getting from DJI is the standard version with a single camera module. Obviously, and here in the standard version, we are going to have some subtle updates, but not a major one that we are actually expecting from the Pro version.
Camera System: Dual 1/1.1-inch sensors (wide-angle + telephoto) with 2x–4x optical zoom, variable aperture (f/1.7–f/2.8), and Hasselblad color science for pro-grade depth, portraits, and low-light prowess.
Why It’s Exciting: Instant lens switching and enhanced versatility, bridging the gap to drone-level filming in a handheld device.
Verification: Backed by X posts from @djirumor and reports from Digital Camera World, including prototype images.
Delays are the catch:
Global Timeline: First, we have to understand that the Pro version is not coming soon, since DJI is going to allow the standard version to get some space. If they announce the Pro alongside the standard, obviously, it is going to affect the sales cycle, and there is a strong possibility it may also cannibalise the sales of the standard Pocket variant. So what we are expecting is that the standard model and the Pro model will maintain a gap of at least 4 to 6 months between their announcement dates.
US-Specific Challenges: The standard model got FCC approval (ID: 2ANDR-OP041) before the December 23, 2025 deadline. The biggest issue is that, till now, we haven’t seen any FCC registration details of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro variant. That clearly means that even if the Pro version arrives after a long gap or even a short gap, it may not become available in the United States of America, since the DJI brand is banned and no further FCC registrations are allowed from the brand after the December 23 ban. So yes, we already have the standard DJI Osmo Pocket 4 FCC ID/certificate, but we don’t have additional registration details, which clearly indicates the Pro variant will remain limited to other countries of the world, not the United States of America.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Release Date
Now, since the retail box of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera is leaked, and we have already seen retailers worldwide stocking the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera gear, the announcement is very near to us. Most probably, we are going to have the official announcement of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera in the month of February – March 2026. The exact date of announcement is not known yet, but yes, as soon as we get that, we will be updating the content. So keep an eye on TheNewCamera.com for further updates.
One thing is for sure: this year, we are also going to have very strong competitors for the Pocket series cameras, starting from the Insta360 Pocket camera. Other than that, we also have the Huawei Robo Cam, But as we all know, Huawei is already banned in the United States of America. But at least we are going to have the Insta360 Pocket camera for sure, and as we have seen in the recently leaked information, which has been exclusively published at TheNewCamera.com, the Insta360 Pocket camera will have multiple camera modules, which you can switch very easily, and for sure they are going to approach every type of photographer as well as content creator out there. So let’s wait for that.
Also, if you’re not heavily interested in the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera, or if you think that the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 upgrade is not worth it and you were actually waiting for the dual-lens-module-based best Pocket Pro camera, then for sure you should wait for the Insta360 Pocket Cam and then decide which camera you should buy.
Apart from all these, we are very excited, and let’s see what happens next. Stay tuned while we are going to cover all the possible updates of upcoming DJI and other pocket-style cameras from different brands.
