In the month of September, the DJI Mini 5 Pro announcement is already there, but just after that, a lot of products are in the announcement pipeline and we have listed all of them here. Just before that, we published the updated list of products that are coming in July 2025, and this article focuses on the latest leaks, confirmed specifications, and the rumors we have related to DJI’s upcoming products.
The DJI Mini 5 Pro is officially coming on September 18. Other than that, we have fresh details on the Pocket 4 camera, Osmo Action 6, the DJI Neo 2 drone, as well as the Avata 3. Along with that, we also have very interesting information related to the DJI 360 drone. So, this is a kind of comprehensive, well-sourced insight.
1. DJI Mini 5 Pro
Now, as September 2025 unfolds, we have several drones in the announcement pipeline, and we are also hearing some regulatory challenges like the potential US drone ban. We wrote an article back in July 2025, covering all the latest and upcoming action cameras, as well as DJI drones. In this update, we are focusing on the latest leaks, confirmed specs, and rumours we have related to the upcoming DJI drones in 2025. As we all know, the DJI Mini 5 Pro is about to arrive on September 18th. In addition to that, we have a list of DJI products coming, which includes the Osmo Action 6 camera, the DJI Pocket 4, the DJI Neo 2, and the Avata 3 drone. So let’s explore the updates we have related to these upcoming products.
DJI Mini 5 Pro: Announcement before September 18
The DJI Mini 5 Pro was expected to arrive in August, but now, as per the insider information we have and the embargo lifted, it all points towards a September 18 full-fledged announcement. On September 18, DJI will lift the embargo on the DJI Mini 5 Pro drone and the shipping will start on the same day by sellers, although the announcement may happen one day before that, maybe on September 16th or 17th. The DJI Mini 5 Pro is one of the first under-249 gram drones that features a large 1-inch sensor as well as an advanced obstacle detection system. So let’s see the major specifications of the Mini 5 Pro.

2. DJI Pocket 4: New Leaked Images, Price and Specifications Updates
Now we have two different sets of images of the Pocket 4 gimbal. The first one, where you see the screen, is coming out of China, where you can clearly read Pocket 4 branding but no camera was visible; the image was shared via Weibo.
On the latest leaked image (below) of the Pocket 4 camera, better to say early prototype, we can clearly see a dual-lens setup-based camera. Both of the camera modules look completely different in size. The left one is noticeably tinier, akin to auxiliary sensors we generally see in smartphones or DJI drone multi-camera module units, for specialised functions. This asymmetry suggests not a symmetrical stereo pair but a main–auxiliary duo.
The main housing around the cameras of the new prototype seems to be compact, potentially even slimmer than the Pocket 3’s module when compared. That means DJI has managed to have a dual setup without excessive bulk. At the very same time, the device shown in the image looks fully functional—no extra wires or tapes seen on the body—which clearly indicates it’s a fully developed product or final prototype.
That’s why we have said: Will DJI risk their video quality performance/compromise in image quality by downsizing or replacing the larger sensor?
Now, not only these two, we have one more prototype image being published by Focused Media, which features a DJI prototype with a flat-style front camera that resembles the dual-camera setup, accompanied by a back display screen. So that’s quite unusual since till now you did not have any extra back screen on the Pocket series.
It’s really too hard to discuss the Pocket 4 specifications when you have multiple different types of prototypes floating in the market. In general, DJI tests several prototypes of the product before its official announcement. The source who shared early specs of the Pocket 4 camera also shared his thoughts that DJI is willing to expand the Pocket series, but this will not happen soon.
Our trusted source shared the DJI Pocket 4 specification, and we do believe him, since he recently shared embargo-related details of the Mini 4 drone.
Accessories: Osmo Magnetic Quick Release, ND Filters, Microphones
Design: Compact, Lightweight, Pocket Electrotouch
3. DJI Osmo Action 6: Fall 2025 Release with Enhanced Imaging and Durability
We have a lot of images of the Action 6 camera: images from the FCC ID, the first hands-on image of the camera as well as its retail box are also leaked. DJI will use a large 1-inch sensor in its upcoming Action 6 compact camera. The recent FCC leak reveals a larger camera housing—likely a move to accommodate a larger 1-inch sensor inside. DJI has been incorporating larger sensors into its products to enhance overall quality, including low-light performance, dynamic range, and colour reproduction.
When the DJI Action 6 is coming: On or before October 2025, the announcement of Action 6 is expected.
DJI Osmo Action 6 Price
The DJI Osmo Action 6 is expected to be priced somewhere around $329 to $429 for the standard combo.
DJI Action 6 Specifications
Sensor: 1-inch CMOS for superior low-light and dynamic range (13.5+ stops).
Video Resolution: 8K30, 5.3K60, 4K120 for slow-mo.
Frame Rates: 8K30, 4K120, 1080p240.
Colour and Bit Depth: 10-bit D-Log M/Flat profiles for pro editing.
Stabilisation: RockSteady 4.0 with AI-enhanced HorizonSteady 360°.
Other Features: 47GB built-in storage (odd number for marketing, like Action 5 Pro’s 47MP photos), Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6, USB-C video out (but no native DisplayPort), improved waterproofing (18m without case), and dual OLED touchscreens. No optical zoom—instead, digital super-wide FOV modes.
Battery: 1950mAh for 4+ hours at 4K.
4. DJI Neo 2: Beginner-Friendly Drone Eyed for Late 2025 Debut
The good thing about the DJI Neo 2 drone is that it is already registered with the FCC ID. FCC ID is actually a milestone for every product—once it’s registered, he Drone maker is bound to be announced within a specific time period. Now, since we already have a lot of information related to the DJI Neo 2. Recent information from tipsters reveals an announcement in November 2025. Another set of information suggests that DJI is bound to announce the Neo 2 drone before January 15, 2026, since after that, the embargoes and FCC ID deadline will get over. And then there is no point in announcing Neo 2 officially after that. So the exact time frame of arrival of the DJI Neo 2 drone is from November 5th to January 15th. Stay tuned for now—if we get any further updates related to the upcoming DJI Neo 2 we will post them on our website, TheNewCamera.com.
DJI Neo 2 Specifications
Launch Date: November 2025
Camera: Upgraded 1-axis gimbal for 4K30 video
Flight Features: Palm takeoff/landing, AI tracking, 6 QuickShots
Stabilization: RockSteady and HorizonBalancing
Weight: ~135g, C0 classification
Transmission: O4 up to 10km
Durability: Full propeller guards, Level 4 wind resistance, larger battery
DJI Neo 2 Price
Standard Combo: $229–$329
Two-Battery Combo: $279–$379
Three-Battery Combo: $329–$429
Motion Fly More Combo: $429–$529
5. DJI Avata 3: FPV Powerhouse Slated for Q4 2025 with Pro Upgrades
Several test images of the DJI Avata 3 have been leaked—or it’s better to say these drones that look very similar to the DJI Avata 3 images have recently leaked and were published on our website. The big confusion for us right now is that the DJI Avata 3 style drone is showing an extra camera on the top, so maybe this is a kind of different prototype, or maybe an Avata 360 version. But that’s really a very exciting moment for us.
The DJI Avata 3 leaks are not new. The first image of the DJI Avata 3 drone surfaced on May 24, 2025, and here it is.
One thing is for sure: this time, the camera gimbal is excessively large, maybe due to the presence of a large 1-inch CMOS sensor inside it.
6. DJI 360 Drone: Emerging Rumors of a Panoramic FPV Hybrid by Late 2025
Just after the announcement of the Insta360 Antigravity A1 drone—although not available to the public right now, and sales will officially start in January 2026—a competitor will emerge from DJI. From the recent leaks, we have seen an Avata-style drone with a large gimbal-style structure in the front with multi-dimensional cameras. So there is a huge possibility that in the first part of 2026, or maybe as early as December 2025, we will see a DJI 360 drone.
Recently, as per an article published in a Chinese local magazine sourced from Weibo, the drone will use the same Osmo 360 1-inch sensor-based 360-degree cameras for high-quality video recording.
DJI 360 Drone Rumored Specifications
8K/50fps panoramic video for ultra-high-resolution immersive footage.
120MP panoramic photos with 10-bit D-Log M colour grading for professional post-production.
Flight Time: 25–32 minutes
Features: Omnidirectional sensing, AI stitching, immersive FPV modes
Weight: ~200g with guards
Transmission: O4 low-latency
These are the latest updates we have regarding the upcoming DJI products, which include drones and action cameras. At the same time, the ban risk is also present, and we have addressed it in this article. So if you are planning to buy a drone, better get yourself one before December 2025. Right now we have very good offers on the DJI Mini 4, as well as the DJI Avata 2, which is also available at its lowest price.
So that’s all for now. Let me know for which camera or specific drone you are waiting, and also share your thoughts—do DJI products deserve a ban, or should we have the freedom to use the best available in the drone industry?
Would you like me to also standardise product naming (like always writing DJI Avata 3 instead of sometimes DJ I Avata 3) so it’s fully consistent across the whole article?

Too good to be true, the main excitement reached its peak when I saw the teaser sent by one of my subscribers. To be very clear, it’s a reseller of DJI products in Brazil and not an authorized dealer, so it is not a directly DJI-owned store, but it is backed by Multilseller status, and it also distributes DJI drones in the region. Located at Av. Brigadeiro Faria Lima, No. 1811, 15th floor, Zip Code 01452-001, São Paulo – SP (CNPJ 59.717.553/0001-02, Registration 112.159.766.117). Now, if you can see the Instagram post, he has clearly posted the teaser that got me super excited. It starts with “He Has Arrived” and in the next line you can read “the most anticipated DJI drone in recent years,” which is obviously true, and it is described as the new generation of technology. If you go through the teaser, it says “availability only on September 17th,” so they are urging you to take advantage of this particular special launch at the DJI Brazil Store.
Okay, this is just an addition to the recent developments and a lot of leaks—just part of those leaks suggesting a mid-September rollout. Although the dates are a bit varying since we have the embargo being lifted on the DJI Mini 5 Pro on September 18, we got many screenshots related to that. So, if we consider all these factors, one thing is sure without a doubt. We can expect the official announcement of the DJI Mini 5 Pro drone between September 16 and 18—it can happen anytime in between. Since on September 18 the embargo will finally lift, and all those who are testing the DJI Mini 5 drone are going to publish their reviews and videos live on YouTube and on their websites. So prior to that, DJI has to make an official announcement.
Breaking Down the Teaser: What It Reveals
The Instagram post coming straight from the Loja DJI reseller features a really great, dramatic black background, and obviously, a drone is being hidden under the cloth to create suspense and build anticipation. Now let’s talk about the key highlights:
Launch Date: The date has been clearly mentioned: “Only on September 17th.” This may also suggest it could be the date for regional availability, pre-orders, or a full reveal.
Pricing Hint: “It arrives with a similar price to its previous version.” This clearly states that the drone will cost the same as its predecessor.
Special Conditions: The shop is encouraging potential buyers to have early access / register themselves for exclusive deals, bundles, or priority shipping—common for regional launches.
Hype Language: Described as a “new generation in technology,” which obviously echoes leaks already known to us, like the new 1-inch sensor and LiDAR, positioning it as a significant upgrade.
While the teaser doesn’t name the “DJI Mini 5 Pro” outright, the context of ongoing leaks and the reseller’s focus on DJI drones make it a clear reference to this model.
Context from Recent Leaks: Building Toward the Announcement
The Loja DJI teaser doesn’t emerge in isolation; it’s part of a broader wave of leaks that have ramped up in early September 2025. Trusted sources, such as DroneXL / Jasper Ellens, are already discussing a mid-September announcement of the drone and the embargo ending on September 18, 2025. As we have reported, blind pre-orders are already underway in regions like Australia and China.
Expected Specs: What Makes the DJI Mini 5 Pro a Game-Changer
Take a look again at the confirmed specifications of the DJI Mini 5 Pro drone. We have summarized the specifications of the drone below:
Up to 52 minutes with Plus battery (3,350mAh); ~36 minutes standard; 20km O3+ video transmission.
Safety Features
Omnidirectional obstacle avoidance; forward-facing LiDAR for night operations; ActiveTrack modes for sports like running and cycling.
Additional Tech
AI-powered editing in DJI Fly app; compatibility with RC2/RC-N3 controllers; ND filter sets (ND8/32/128).
Pricing and Availability
Base Model: Around $799–$850 USD, including basic controller.
Fly More Combo: $999–$1,299 USD, with extras like additional batteries and RC2 controller.
Why This Teaser Matters: A Signal of Global Launch
Finally, we are getting some sort of official confirmations that fill the gaps—between speculative leaks and official confirmation. Without a doubt, if you look at the specifications of the Mini 5 Pro, it is one of the most advanced sub-249g drones of DJI yet. We are keeping an eye on further developments. Stay tuned, stay updated.

It looks like someone is testing out the next Avata drone in the wild. We are getting different names for that Avata 3 or DJI 360, since the design of the drone matches with Avata, with new style of camera setup, it looks like a completely new type of prototype from DJI. Even as we have previously published the DJI 360 drone, after a long-term discussion with our website editors, we have compared the previous leaked images of the Avata 3 drone. We are very much sure it’s the Aata series drone
Latest Leaked Images of the DJI Avata 3
Now we have the recent images from the Chinese regional websites of what appears to be a prototype of DJI. As usual, before the announcement, DJI does rigorous testing of their product. The drone is very compact and cinewhoop-style frame; at a glance, it looks very much similar to its predecessor, the Avata 2, but as you guys may have noticed, the new image shows a heavy and large gimbal size in the leaked image compared to what we have in the Avata 2.
To get a clear view, we have further upscaled the images with the help of the available set of AI tools we have. While upscaling the image, it clearly shows a 360-degree style camera on the top of the gimbal. Now that really sparks a debate whether it’s truly the DJI Avata 3 or maybe an entirely new model, which may look like the DJI Avata series but it’s a 360 drone, or better to say it’s a new DJI 360 drone.
When we tried to enhance the leaked pic more, with the help of available AI, this was the result
The pic above you see, contains both the un-enhanced original image in the inset, and the enhanced pic shows a 360 camera in the gimbal.
Now, in one more shot, we can clearly see the DJI controllers. It suggests that it does have obviously seamless connectivity or compatibility with its existing ecosystem as well as to give users a FPV-style experience.
This is the old pic of the Avata 3 drone shared by Igor Bogdanov on May 24, 2025
Stay tuned for more updates ..
Stay tuned, and we will update you soon as we get any new information related to the DJI 360 drone or any other upcoming drones or cameras.

The DJI 360 Drone, a lightweight panoramic drone and rumoured to be the DJI official entry into the 360-degree aerial capture market, will and without a doubt, it will directly challenge the existing Insta 360 anti-gravity A1 drone. We’ve compiled the latest and most comprehensive information about the DJI 360 Drone. Most of the time, sources of a call this Drone the DJ I Mini 360, so don’t get confused with these two names (DJI 360 Drone / DJI 360 Mini Drone). After the official entry of DJI into the 360 camera market, now with the announcement of Antigravity A1, Insta360 has entered the drone space, now a bit very obvious that DJI will be preparing for a 360 drone announcement in the next few months. Now, let’s explore If you are looking for DJI 360 Drone rumours, you have come to the right place
Initial hints suggest the announcement is expected in December 2025 or in the early months of 2026.
Insta 360 antigravity A1 was announced back on August 14,20, 25. But it will officially arrive in January of 2026 for users. Before that, Insta 360 is carefully testing out its drone, while collaborating with worldwide Drone lovers and creators. The main aim of the company is to get feedback from them and to scale up their performance before it officially reaches the hands of their consumers. So they want to make it as smooth as possible.
Pricing Expectations
We are keeping the price figure of the DJI 360 Drone very competitive, according to the Insta360 Antigravity A1 Price.
Bundle Tier
Inclusions
Estimated Price Range (USD)
Standard Bundle
Drone + Grip controller
$1,099–$1,299
Fly More Combo
Standard bundle + 2 extra batteries + spare props + carrying case
$1,299–$1,399
Creator/Pro Kit
Fly More bundle + creative mounts + ND filters + editing software voucher + premium case
$1,400–$1,599
Enterprise Add-Ons
Pro Kit + commercial extras (e.g., SDK access, extended warranty)
$1,600–$1,899
very clever pricing strategy that we are getting right now, which is expected to be implemented in the new release by DJI. At the very same time, the DJI ecosystem is already rich and has too many accessories and options for users, it would be highly interesting to see how anti-gravity even and the DJI 360 Drone compete against each other.
The DJI will follow its Mini series philosophy when creating its first 360-degree drone, ensuring it remains lightweight and weighs under 240 grams. It is highly essential to comply with the FAA registration exemption. The DJI 360 Drone will feature an integrated 360-degree camera, inspired by the DJI Osmo 360 camera. The same 360-degree tech controls will become available in your hands via the RC controller and DJI goggles.
Sensor Size: Well DJI 360 drone will use a Dual 1-inch sensor, as of the OSMO 360?. Well, we are waiting for confirmation on this, but having dual large sensor-based optics and dual sensors themselves may create a wait management challenge for the entire DJI team.
Despite the sensor size, it will be a massive leap in DJI’s traditional video-capturing capability. The new DJI 360 Drone will allow users to preserve the entire data in one go, and later on they can edit, reframe the entire footage in the DJI Mimo app or studio software.

The biggest power-packed features of the DJI drones are actually their intelligent flight modes, apart from the camera core specification. Even in the new Mini 5 Pro drone we are getting, omnidirectional obstacle sensing powered by six vision sensors, a 3D ToF depth sensor, and downward-facing lights for precise low-altitude hovering, it’s a bit obvious to see the new age obstacle avoidance feature in the DJI 360 drone. New AI modes for the DJI 360 Drone will also be introduced alongside the official announcement

Max Flight Time: 36 minutes with the standard 2,785mAh battery, up to 52 minutes with Intelligent Flight Battery Plus (exceeding 249g threshold)

DJI will include the DJI RC 2 controller and FPV goggles in the kits, as we have mentioned in the price section of this article.
What to Expect Next and Final Thoughts
As we approach the year-end, specifically in December 2025, we will keep an eye on DJI’s information channels (which include official and non-official sources ) for teasers and leaks – perhaps at events like CES 2026, it is an excellent platform for DJI to showcase their new 360 Drone during the event. Stay tuned at thenewcamera.com for LIVE updates related to DJI’s upcoming Drones and action cameras.
UPDATE: September 8, 2025
We recently got confirmation over the sensor size, according to the source who has sent is leaked images of the upcoming drone, the DJI 360 drone will carry 1 inch sensor inside it.

So, finally, the DJI Mini 5 Pro is coming on September 18, 2025. The date has been confirmed. We have received an exclusive tip from a reliable source confirming that yes, it is coming on the very same date. This also aligns very closely with the wave of mid-September rumors that have been floated earlier and yep, there are some leaks with the websites pointing towards the September 16 announcement. Although DJI hasn’t made any official announcement yet, looking at the latest set of leaks related to the DJI Mini 5 Pro we have the recent box leaks, specification details, as well as pricing information, which sums up the entire picture of the upcoming DJI Mini 5 drone.
The Leaked Release Timeline: September 18
The tipster has shared a snapshot of what appears to be an internal product memo from the DJI Camera Department, stating a “release date” of 18/09/2025 for the DJI Mini 5 Pro drones and accessories. SKUs are listed as “various,” with a memo link marked “HERE” (likely pointing to internal details). And at the same time, since it’s an “internal product memo,” it could be pointing out the shipping date, and the announcement may happen a few days earlier.
Now I have added this line that, despite this coming from a trusted source who has shared the real pic of an internal memo, most of the websites like the Drone Radar or Quadro News are pointing towards the September 16 reveal. So there is a high probability that September 16 may be the announcement date and from September 18 the shipping will start. But again this is what we have right now, and we are sharing it with you—whatever the information we have, nothing hidden, full transparency.

The DJI Mini 5 Pro and the DJI Mini 4 Pro are the two most exciting under-250-gram drones in 2025. If you talk about the best drone in the under-250-gram category, then without doubt, these two are among the best, but which one is best among these two? As we all know, the Mini 5 Pro has already become very popular among drone lovers, although the drone is not easily available on Amazon.com or B&H Store, even after its announcement, due to some regulatory/ongoing ban issues, so in an in-depth comparison on TheNewCamera.com, we have tried to bring out the best possible comparison between the two with all of the available core specifications, and it will surely help you to decide the best DJI drone for 2025 without a doubt. So let’s jump into the comparison.
Overview: DJI Mini 4 Pro vs Mini 5 Pro
The DJI Mini 4 Pro is not new; It was announced back in September 2023. At that time, a 1/1.3-inch sensor and 4K 60FPS HDR video recording were more than enough, and omnidirectional obstacle avoidance. Overall, it was a great sub-249-gram category drone, which is still quite popular.
The new DJI Mini 5 Pro was officially announced on September 17, 2025. It does carry some of the biggest updates that we have ever seen in a sub-249-gram category drone, such as a large 1-inch sensor, the introduction of LiDAR for advanced obstacle avoidance tech, and up to 52 minutes of flight time while using the Plus battery feature.
If you compare the price of the drone right now, we are a bit surprised since most of the accessories whose prices are confirmed come at almost the same price range, with a slight price increase. We have already done the price comparison of these two drones in our previous article. Now, let’s have a look at the performance capability, flight capability, and the major differences between the features of both drones.

Deep analysis and specification comparison
1. Camera performance:
DJI Mini 4 Pro:The Mini 4 Pro uses a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor (48 MP) that delivers excellent 4K/60fps HDR video and 1080p/200fps cinematic slow-motion, with 10-bit D-Log M and HLG for professional colour grading. Its f/1.7 aperture and 2.4μm pixels perform well in daylight but struggle in low light, so the drone struggles to perform well at night. Yes, the noise is very clearly visible after ISO 3200, and when you are using the D-Log due to the sensor size limitation, the latitude we get in the video file is limited. With the help of the gimbal, it does support true vertical shooting, which is perfect for social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
DJI Mini 5 Pro: The camera of the Mini 5 Pro features 1-inch 50MP CMOS sensor with f/1.8 aperture, superior low-light performance (better noise control up to ISO 12800), 14-stop dynamic range, and 10-bit D-Log M/HLG color profiles,a major jump in terms of low light performance, as well as dynamic range when compared to a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor. DJI Mini 5 Pro supports 4K video recording at 120fps or even 5.4K/30fps, similar to what we see in the DJI Air 2S. A hybrid autofocus (phase + contrast) and 12-bit RAW could greatly enhance detail. The gimbal tilting up to +90 degrees allows unique upward shots, and onboard audio recording is an added option.
Analysis: All the features make the DJI Mini 5 Pro one of the best cinematic drones that fall under the 249-gram weight class.
2. Flight performance comparison
Mini 4 Pro: Offers 34 minutes (standard battery) or 45 minutes (Battery Plus), a 20 km range (OcuSync 4), and 35.8 mph max speed, which is really impressive. It can handle wind speeds of 23.9 mph with ±0.3 ft accuracy (vision) or ±1.6 ft (GNSS).
Mini 5 Pro:36 minutes with standard battery combo and up to 52 minutes of flight time with a Plus battery and a 25 km range (OcuSync 4+ with multi-beam). Vented motors as well as new propeller design suggest improved thrust, cooling, and less noise while hovering compared to the previous generation, potentially increasing wind resistance to ~26.8 mph.
Analysis: The Mini 5 Pro offers slightly extended flight time despite the fact the drone has now become more power-hungry after the update of the large one-inch sensor, improved image processor, and improved stability in windy conditions, making it ideal for adventurous creators. The Mini 4 Pro remains reliable but is outclassed here when compared with the new DJI Mini 5 Pro.
3. Obstacle Avoidance
Mini 4 Pro:The Mini 4 Pro uses omnidirectional avoidance with binocular vision sensors (0.5–18m range) and a 3D ToF depth sensor, enhanced by APAS for smooth navigation. It struggles to detect objects at night and uses an infrared sensor to help land perfectly.
Mini 5 Pro:LiDAR alongside omnidirectional sensors — from the leaked images, it’s very clear that the drone has dual front-facing LiDAR units for advanced obstacle avoidance as well as ActiveTrack 6.0 for better tracking.
Analysis: Introduction of LiDAR sensors inside the new DJI Mini 5 Pro makes it the best. The obstacle avoidance no longer remains limited like the Mini 4 Pro — it has become more advanced and safer for consumer use.
4. Intelligent Features
Mini 4 Pro: Already advanced at its time, the drone includes ActiveTrack 360°, MasterShots, QuickShots (Dronie, Helix, etc.), Hyperlapse, and Panorama modes. SmartPhoto enhances HDR, and Cruise Control maintains steady speeds.
Mini 5 Pro: Mini 5 Pro’s advanced set of features includes ActiveTrack 6.0, enhanced MasterShots, and onboard audio syncing with the DJI Mic. The Mini 5 Pro features AI-powered tracking improvements and a “48mm med-tele mode” for lossless zoom.
Analysis: Obviously, the Mini 5 Pro drone stands out with its updated core specifications. The most important upgrade apart from the camera itself is the advanced LiDAR obstacle avoidance syste,m as well as advanced AI-based tracking, making it a perfect choice for vloggers and social media creators.
5. Design and Portability
Mini 4 Pro: Folded (148 x 94 x 64 mm) and unfolded (298 x 373 x 101 mm), it’s compact and travel-friendly at <249g.
Mini 5 Pro (Rumored): Similar dimensions, maintaining <249g for regulation-free flying (C0 class, Open A1). Leaked images clearly show a larger camera module and vented motors.
Analysis: Both drones excel in portability, but the Mini 5 Pro’s advanced tech in the same weight class shows remarkable improvement in the engineering of the drone.
6. Price Comparison
Mini 4 Pro: Base (RC-N2): $759 USD
Fly More Combo: $999 USD
Accessories: Standard battery ($99), Battery Plus ($145), propellers ($9), ND filters ($55).
Mini 5 Pro (Rumored): Base: $799–$899 USD
Fly More Combo RC2: $1,099–$1,299 USD
Accessories: Standard battery ($69), Battery Plus ($99), propellers ($19), ND filters ($55).
Yes, the accessory prices are slightly higher. We were expecting a bit of a price jump in the drone pricing but the leaked European price suggests it will fall in the same pricing category, so despite such massive hardware updates, you don’t have to pay extra when compared to the DJI Mini 4 Pro.
