DJI Upcoming Products Late 2026: Air 4, Avata 3 and More

DJI has already delivered an impressive wave of its product announcements globally till July 2026, but now what next? In this article, we are going to discuss the next set of announcements from DJI. Yes, we do know that DJI is facing some limitations and bans in the United States of America. But not to worry that much since we do have XtraMuse, which republish the rebranded DJI cameras and drones under their name, and the fact is the XtraMuse products also support the DJI ecosystem, so what you get is only the name changed. The rest of the things remain the same inside the product.

Existing pre-2026 authorised models (and some with prior approvals) remain available through retailers and importers, with software update support extended through at least 2029.

Let’s have a look at the set of upcoming cameras and drones from DJI

Major Upcoming Releases: Late 2026 (US Outlook)

Now, in the second half of 2026, as per the initial set of information, DJI will focus on prosumer drone refreshes. Expect China-first launches with delayed or limited global/US reach, Since we know that DJI is facing a BAN issue in the USA and if the situation continues, the supply chain of Newly announced drones will remain halted

1. DJI Air 4 – Most Likely Major Mid-Range Drone

Expected US/Global Window: September–November 2026 (Q3/Q4), subject to change.

Status & Leaks (Cross-Verified): May 2026 leaks from Igor Bogdanov (early documents) and Chinese flight-app sightings confirm active development and testing. Prototype images showed premium design elements (thicker arms, top sensors). No official information is out as of now.

Rumoured Specs:

  • Possible sub-250g version (easier regs in many areas).
  • Dual 1-inch sensors for excellent low-light/dynamic range.
  • Enhanced omnidirectional avoidance and efficiency.
  • O4 transmission system.

US Availability & FCC: No new public FCC filing noted yet – official US sales are expected to face major restrictions. Gray-market or importer options may emerge post-global launch, but expect higher prices, delayed stock, and no full warranty. Compare to current Air 3S (still viable for many).

Pricing Estimate (USD): $800–$1,200+ depending on combo. Global equivalents will vary.

Recommendation for US Buyers: Strong wait-and-see candidate if you need mid-range versatility. Monitor for any regulatory shifts.

2. DJI Avata 3 – FPV Line Refresh

Expected Window: Q3/Q4 2026 (potentially overlapping Air 4).

As we all know, the Avata 360 is not a true successor to the DJI Avata 2. As per the set of rumours, we have the Avata 3 coming with a larger 1-inch sensor. And this time, we will have a massive update in video quality as well as in dynamic range performance of the Avata 3 compared to the Avata 2, which was using a 1/1.3-inch CMOS image sensor that captures 12 MP photos and up to 4K/60fps video.

US Note: Similar FCC challenges as other new drones. Avata 360’s prior approval doesn’t automatically extend here.

3. A Brand New Series of Semi-Pro Drones

Yes, recently our team has spotted a brand new series of DJI Drones at CMIIT ID, expected to arrive this year (2026) in two of its variants. More information about the dromes is here.

4. Accessories & Supporting Tools (Late 2026)

  • DJI Mic Mini 2 / Similar: Compact wireless audio solutions – often easier certification paths.
  • Potential Osmo 360 II or Gimbal Tweaks: If not already out, targeted for niche creative needs.
  • Power & Enterprise Expansions: Less consumer impact.

These may have slightly better US paths than full drones.

2027 Outlook: Longer-Term Expectations for US Users

Details are thinner, but DJI’s patterns suggest:

  • Mini Series (Mini 6/Pro): Early/mid-2027 weight/camera upgrades.
  • Mavic Flagship Refresh (Mavic 5?): Mid-to-late 2027 for high-end cinema.
  • Osmo Action 7: Sensor/battery/AI improvements.
  • DJI Mirrorless Camera: Highly anticipated first dedicated stills body—timing could slip into 2027.
  • Gimbal & Accessory Cycles: RS/Ronin updates likely.

Regulatory Reality Check for the US: New 2026 – 2027 products will almost certainly face the same Covered List barriers unless policy changes occur. Existing authorised fleet (pre-2026 models) remains flyable with updates. Consider US-made or non-DJI alternatives (e.g., Skydio, Autel where compliant) for long-term peace of mind.

  • Stay informed via thenewcamera.com for US-specific updates.

DJI shows no signs of slowing creative innovation globally. For US users, the landscape requires careful planning around regulations. We’ll continue tracking Air 4 and beyond – bookmark this page for updates!

DJI Mini 4K Prime Day Deals June 2026: Best Amazon Prices & Bundles (No FAA Registration)

DJI prime day deal bnanner img

Amazon Prime Day already started 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 getting an approx 30% price drop over the MSRP price of the Mini 4K drone.

And the best part is 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: 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.

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.

DJI Mini 4K Full Specifications

Category Specification
Takeoff Weight 246 g
Dimensions (Folded) 138 × 81 × 58 mm
Max Flight Time 31 minutes (lab) / 20–24 minutes (real-world)

Intelligent Modes QuickShots, Panorama, Return to Home
App DJI Fly

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.

DJI Pocket 4 PRO Not Available in the USA? XTRA MUSE 2 PRO Early Access Opens Today

 

DJI Avata 3 or DJI Neo 3? Mysterious Dual-Guard Prototype Leaked

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.

DJI Pocket 4 April 16 Launch Confirmed: High-Quality Renders Reveal More Details

DJI Avata 360 Official Banner Revealed on DJI Store Amazon USA

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 

Head-to-Head Price Comparison: DJI Avata 360 vs Antigravity A1 (US Approximate Pricing)

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.

Bundle Tier / Comparison DJI Avata 360 (Approx. USD) Insta360 Antigravity A1 (USD) Price Difference (Savings with DJI)
Entry / Drone + Basic Setup Drone Only: ~$528 Not Available (No standalone) N/A (Antigravity requires full bundle)
Mid-Tier / Fly More with Standard Controller Fly More Combo (RC 2): ~$1,080 Standard Bundle: $1,599 ~$519 cheaper
Motion / Immersive Mid Bundle Motion Fly More Combo (RC Motion 3 + Goggles N3): ~$1,080 Explorer Bundle: $1,899 ~$819 cheaper
Premium / Full High-End Kit Premium Combo (Goggles N3 + RC 2): ~$1,333 Infinity Bundle: $1,999 ~$666 cheaper

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 vs Insta360 Antigravity A1: Massive Price Difference in 2026 – Which 360° FPV Drone Wins on Value?

DJI Avata 360 4G Version: Why It’s China-Only and Won’t Launch in the USA

 

DJI Avata 360 vs Insta360 Antigravity A1: Massive Price Difference in 2026 – Which 360° FPV Drone Wins on Value?

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

Head-to-Head Price Comparison: DJI Avata 360 vs Antigravity A1 (US Approximate Pricing)

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.

Bundle Tier / Comparison DJI Avata 360 (Approx. USD) Insta360 Antigravity A1 (USD) Price Difference (Savings with DJI)
Entry / Drone + Basic Setup Drone Only: ~$528 Not Available (No standalone) N/A (Antigravity requires full bundle)
Mid-Tier / Fly More with Standard Controller Fly More Combo (RC 2): ~$1,080 Standard Bundle: $1,599 ~$519 cheaper
Motion / Immersive Mid Bundle Motion Fly More Combo (RC Motion 3 + Goggles N3): ~$1,080 Explorer Bundle: $1,899 ~$819 cheaper
Premium / Full High-End Kit Premium Combo (Goggles N3 + RC 2): ~$1,333 Infinity Bundle: $1,999 ~$666 cheaper

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.

Beyond Price: DJI Avata 360 vs Insta360 Antigravity A1 Specification Comparison

Take a quick look at the core specification difference between the two 

Category DJI Avata 360 (Leaked Specs) Antigravity A1 (Official Specs) Winner/Notes

Camera Mode Tiltable/rotatable dual-lens module (seamless 360° ↔ FPV switch) Single-axis gimbal + 360° digital stab Replaceable lenses (~€21) Fixed top + bottom lenses (pure 360° only) No gimbal mentioned Avata 360 – true dual-mode FPV + 360°; protects lenses on takeoff/landing (no extra gear needed)
Flight Time ~23 minutes (leaked) + “bigger/cheaper” battery option 24 min (std battery) 39 min (high-cap battery) Slight edge to A1 (with upgrade); Avata battery still unconfirmed exact
Transmission/Range ~20 km (leaked) ~10 km (FCC) Avata 360
Obstacle Avoidance LiDAR + full omnidirectional Vision/collision sensors (yes) Avata 360 (LiDAR better in low light)
Max Speed Not leaked yet 16 m/s (S-mode) A1 (known)
Wind Resistance Not leaked yet Level 5 (10.7 m/s) A1 (known)
Ecosystem Uses existing DJI Goggles N3 + RC2 (cheaper for current DJI FPV owners) Dedicated Vision Goggles + Grip controller Avata 360 (cheaper entry for DJI users)
Other Features 8K spherical HDR, rotatable housing protects lenses, works with DJI accessories Foldable arms, auto-edit, Deep Track, 20GB internal + microSD, under-250g friendly in most countries Avata more versatile; A1 more travel-ready now
Availability Official launch March 26, 2026 (global April) Available now A1 (buy today)

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.

What Next After DJI Avata 360? 2026 Roadmap – Osmo Pocket 4, Lito X1, Osmo 360 II & More

DJI Avata 360 First Review: Hands-On Flying Experience with the All-New 360 Camera Drone

 

DJI Avata 360 First Review: Hands-On Flying Experience with the All-New 360 Camera Drone

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)

Transmission, Flight Performance & Real-World Flying

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 Official Teaser Video: Announcement Soon

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

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:

Bundle Type Chinese Price (¥) Estimated US Price ($) Inclusions
