In a recent report, we are really very much surprised to see that DJI has already covered 43% of the global 360° camera market share with their only single announcement, the Osmo 360 camera, so now you can imagine how impactful the DJI technology and their reach in the consumer base is, just with a single announcement. They have covered a large segment of the market.
If you talk about action cameras, the latest Q3 2025 report from Jiuqian Consulting shows DJI grabbing a massive 66% of the global action camera market. The GoPro camera market remains limited to 18% and Insta360 is around 13% only.
“Action Camera Gold Ranking.” The Osmo 360? It’s been #1 in “Outdoor 360° Action Camera Sales” for 49 straight days.
Why DJI Owns the Game Now: Action & 360° Market Domination Exposed
So now it’s time to do some fact-checking. We have collected all the possible statistics of the recent sales made by DJI and all thanks to Jiuqian Consulting for bringing out these numbers to us that clearly show how much people are inclined towards buying a DJI Osmo 360 or the action camera when compared to GoPro or Insta360.
| Category | DJI Share | GoPro Share | Insta360 Share | Other |
| Global Action Cameras (Q3 2025) | 66% | 18% | 13% | 3% |
| Global 360° Cameras | 43% | N/A | Implied <40% | ~17% |
| China EC 360° Cameras | 49% | N/A | Suppressed | ~51% |

One thing you have to keep in mind is that we are not talking about DJI drones. We are talking about action and 360 cameras, and the stats say, as we have already mentioned, that people are more inclined to get a camera. Maybe they are more reliable. Maybe they have their own ecosystem where you can easily integrate wireless mics without putting any external receiver at the same time, with durability, and at a price. All this combines as factors combine to make people buy the DJI products.
So whatever report you see is not an accidental report, DJI has worked in the past like no one else, and they have developed a cohesive ecosystem synchronising possibly most of the technologies with each other, and that’s why maybe people are preferring it more compared to others.
Spotlight on the Osmo 360: DJI’s Game-Changer
Now, all this started with the announcement of the DJI Osmo 360. It just created a new sort of wave, and it was quite unexpected that most of the Insta360 users, or maybe those who have never tried 360 video before, are going to buy 360 cameras in that use capacity or numbers, so it’s kind of a shift of a consumer base from one brand to a different brand. What is the exact reason behind it? The lower price than competitors, cohesive ecosystem, or the introduction of a large 1-inch sensor inside the 360 body — it can be any of that or all, these are the contributing factors behind the massive success.
The market is open to everyone, and just before the introduction of the Osmo 360 camera, the Insta360 accessories cameras were leading the market since there was no other option available at that time, but once DJI entered, it covered 40 to 50% of the market share in just a single sort of announcement. So, I personally think that Insta360 should take some extra care of their 360° cameras. Otherwise, they have to face a lot of hurdles in the near future due to a shrinking market share.
The Fallen Titans: GoPro and Insta360 Under Siege
The original action camera maker — better to say the father of the action camera — GoPro, they had almost all the market at the beginning, but started falling as soon as DJI entered the space. It all started back in 2010 when GoPro had introduced the first action camera in the market by claiming all the 100% space of the action camera for more than a decade. Now the situation has arrived that the entire consumer base remains limited to only 18% of the market share, as per the initial report we have from Q3 2025.
So why is GoPro falling off so rapidly? There are two big reasons behind that:
- The first and foremost reason is the thermal nightmare in the new Hero 13 action cam; the users of the Hero 13 are heavily disappointed due to the overheating issues.
- The second biggest reason is the lack of innovation. The Hero 13 does offer 5.3K recording at 60 frames per second with HyperSmooth 6.0, but it is not a revolutionary update, and all these are available for $400, whereas in DJI, we have cheaper options in DJI, which are already connected with an ecosystem and have no heating issues.
- Service and support, so a central solution like DJI care for users
So, at the end, DJI is the most popular brand among its users, GoPro should learn from previous mistakes and get back in the market asap. I was a big fan of GoPro myself, but now I am using Pocket 3 and Action 5 Pro as my latest travel kit cameras. Another thing to look forward to is whether the company will actually enter the interchangeable lens mirrorless camera market, which has been rumored many times.
