Creative Image: Starting from Pocket 4 PRO, Standard Pocket 3, and Standard Pocket 4
The DJI Osmo Pocket series has revolutionised handheld content creation, and many professional content creators today utilise the Osmo Pocket 3 camera, which features a 1-inch sensor and 4K video recording capabilities, along with advanced AI autofocus tracking.
According to recent leaked images, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 appears to show two different prototypes being tested in the wild alongside the Pocket 3. Now, these two distinct variants of the Pocket 4 appear to have two different types of cameras.
One variant features the long-rumoured dual-lens setup, a larger camera module with a heavier head, which can be clearly seen and noticed. The other variant has a single camera module with clearly visible buttons below the display screen and appears to be less portable.
If you remember the leaked picture from the Barcelona shoot, it actually resembles the single-lens Pocket 4 variant, which features a single camera unit with dual buttons below the display.
As of December 19, 2025, no official announcement has been made by DJI; however, leaks suggest a potential announcement in early 2026.

Leaked Prototypes Spotted: Pocket 3 Next to Two Pocket 4 Variants
The Leaked image provides the clearest picture of the DJI Pocket 4 camera yet, but interestingly, we are witnessing two different variations of the Pocket 4 camera, which are very clearly visible. Both prototypes are being tested in the wild, as seen above.
- The Middle Device (Reference): It is very clearly visible that the middle camera is the Pocket 3, and we can clearly identify it by the rotating mechanism, the type of screen, and the standard camera unit that we have seen multiple times before. However, the two different variations on the left and right sides are clearly new and do not have any logo, trademark, DJI, or Osmo name on their bodies, which also suggests that they are prototypes, not production-line models.
- The Left Prototype (The Rumoured “Pro”): The next model is the most discussed and most talked-about, mainly because of its dual-lens setup and heavier head, which is obviously and significantly bulkier than the previous-generation Pocket 3 gimbal. This specific Pocket 4 Pro clearly resembles multiple previous leaks that were reported by trusted leakers like Jasper Allen. Without a doubt, DJI’s dual-lens Pocket 4 model is already in the announcement pipeline, and we are almost certain to witness its official announcement in 2026.
- The Right Prototype (The “Standard” Successor): This unit closely resembles the Pocket 3 form factor but appears to house a larger lens element. This fits the description of the rumoured single-camera setup featuring an upgraded sensor / Image processor.
Whether we look left or right, both Pocket 4 prototypes feature a redesigned gimbal. The Pocket 4 standard upgrade, located on the extreme right side of the image, features a slimmer gimbal design with additional buttons below the display, as previously mentioned. On the extreme left side, we see the Pocket 4 Pro, possibly the most advanced and heaviest upgrade of the Pocket 3, featuring a heavier gimbal, a single button below the display, which is clearly visible, along with a larger size, a heavier gimbal head, and a bigger camera unit.
So overall, not only are the camera units different, but we also see variations in the chassis and gimbal design of the camera.
Image of Standard Pocket 4 Standard edition – leaked images surfaced on the web, and according to the source, the picture is coming straight out from a promotional video shoot in Barcelona. The image you see below is a screenshot of a behind-the-scenes (BTS) video. The image is really one of the clearest pics of the Pocket 4 prototype and also hints at some refinements in the design and overall layout of the camera, as you can notice the button control layout has been changed slightly

DJI Osmo Pocket 4 (Standard Version): Rumored Specifications and Features
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Standard camera is expected to feature a single-sensor-based camera module, possibly using the same 1-inch sensor with approximately 50-megapixel resolution that we have already seen in the Pocket 3.
However, apart from that, it is expected to receive major upgrades in the internal core specifications of the camera. Take a look at the rumoured specifications of the Pocket 4 Standard upgrade.
Key rumoured specifications for the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 (standard):
- Sensor: Upgraded 1-inch CMOS loaded with 50 million pixels for superior detail and low-light performance.
- Video Capabilities: Features 6K video recording, 4K at 120 frames per second, and advanced slow-motion options.
- Weight: Approximately 190 grams, maintaining portability.
- Battery: Around 20% larger capacity than the Pocket 3 for extended shooting sessions.
- Other Upgrades: Improved stabilization, 10-bit D-Log M color profile, and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity.
This variant aims to deliver flagship image quality in a simpler, more affordable package without the complexity of multiple lenses.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro: Dual-Lens Setup for Optical Zoom and Versatility
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro camera module, featuring a dual-lens setup, is being referred to as “Pro” since it is very clear from testing that DJI is evaluating two different Pocket-series camera variants for release. There is a high probability that we may see a standard model followed by a Pro model announcement, one after another.
The dual-camera setup appears to be very similar to that of the DJI Air 3S drone. Take a look at the specifications of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro camera.
- Dual-Lens System: A primary wide-angle lens paired with a telephoto lens for true optical zoom (potentially 2x-4x without quality loss).
- Sensor Details: Primary 1-inch sensor combined with a secondary sensor (possibly 1/1.3-inch or square format optimized for Ultrawide shoot).
- Video Enhancements: Up to 4K at 120fps for ultra-slow-motion, alongside 6K/60fps options.
- Potential Accessories: Rumors point to a new remote control accessory (similar to a “frame tap” style handler) designed for the Pro model. This would allow remote operation of the longer focal length telephoto lens from a distance, ideal for vlogging or dynamic shots where holding the gimbal isn’t practical.
The dual-lens approach addresses a common Pocket 3 limitation: reliance on digital zoom. It could enable seamless switching between wide and telephoto perspectives, making the Pro variant a game-changer for professional creators.
For Now, Only 1 Pocket 4 Coming on Jan 2026: Here is why
Before we discuss the announcement timeline of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 / Pocket 4 Pro, which have appeared during field testing, first of all, we must make it clear, as we have already said earlier, that a company tests several prototypes before a product enters the production line.
The FCC ID 2ANDR-OP04 is tied to the grantee SZ DJI Osmo Technology Co., Ltd. So, for now, we have only 1 (one) FCC registration related to the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 series camera. As I am writing this post on December 19, 2025, and while keeping this data fully up to date, we have not found any separate Pocket 4 Pro registration so far.
Retailer leaked the Stock of Pocket 4, they are just waiting for the DJI green flag / Announcement to start selling the Pocket 4 camera
DJI Pocket 4 Arrival Date
This sets a very clear indication that, as of now, there is only one Pocket 4 camera in the pipeline. So, it is up to DJI which camera variant they are about to introduce. Sources suggest that the Standard Pocket 4 Edition will arrive early, before the PRO at the end of Feb-March 2026.Its confirmed now only single lens varient based camera is coming the standard version and the Dual Lens version varient is not coming anytime soon for now
There are some rumors that the PRO Edition of Pocket 4 will arrive after April 2026, not in April 2026. And we are also tracking that rumor/information, and will post an update as soon as we get any new information.
Announcement is Delayed, here’s why
A full DJI Pocket 4 release in December 2025 is off the table. And the announcement is delayed till Feb-March of 2026. It’s really a bit disappointing for all of us who were waiting to pre-order Pocket 4 before Christmas.
Why the delay? The exact reason, as mentioned by photorabz, is that the Accessories are the culprit (One Frame TAP?). As we all know, the Pocket 3 depends on a lot of external accessories, which include wireless mics, extra batteries, and modular mounts – DJI’s ecosystem thrives on these add-ons, and rushing them could lead to quality issues.
Stay tuned to thenewcamera.com for the latest updates – an official announcement could drop soon. If you’re in the market now, the Osmo Pocket 3 remains an outstanding choice with deep discounts amid these rumors.
