DJI Debuts Osmo Pocket 4 With 1-Inch Sensor and 4K/240fps as U.S. Launch Stalls

U.S. sales remain paused pending FCC approval tied to DJI’s placement on a federal covered list.

Overview

  • Regional sales and pre-orders have opened with shipping slated for April 22, and pricing set at €499/€619 in Europe, £445/£549 in the UK, AU$769/AU$959 in Australia, and Canadian pre-orders now live.
  • The fourth‑gen pocket gimbal centers on a 1‑inch sensor, records slow motion at 4K/240fps, supports 10‑bit D‑Log with a claimed 14 stops of dynamic range, and uses a 3‑axis gimbal with ActiveTrack 7.0 for steadier, smarter framing.
  • DJI added 107GB of built‑in storage with up to 800MB/s transfers, while reports conflict on removable storage, with some outlets saying there is no microSD slot and others citing support up to 1TB.
  • The camera is not officially sold in the U.S. because DJI’s FCC authorization is still pending after the company was added to an NDAA‑related Covered List in December 2025, leaving American creators to consider gray‑market imports with weaker warranty support.
  • Battery specs include a 1,545 mAh pack that charges to 80% in about 18 minutes and can run up to roughly four hours at 1080p/24fps, and some reports point to a rumored dual‑lens Pocket 4 Pro in May–June that DJI has not confirmed.
