DJI Osmo Pocket 4 launch may be delayed until 2026 due to accessory issues.
DJI's next-generation gimbal camera has been confirmed through FCC filings, promising 20% better battery life, but accessory quality control issues have caused a delay in its launch date.
DJI's next-generation hybrid gimbal action camera, the Osmo Pocket 4, may not launch in late 2025 as planned. According to the latest reports, the product's release date may be postponed to early 2026 due to quality control issues.
The delay was not caused by the camera.
According to sources fromPhotorabzThe main reason for the delay doesn't lie with the Osmo Pocket 4 itself, but rather with the accompanying accessories. DJI is believed to have missed its planned December 2025 launch date due to quality control issues with these accessories. This also explains why the company hasn't officially promoted the product yet, despite numerous leaked images and information circulating recently.
The information has been confirmed and is expected to be accurate.
Despite delays, the existence of the Osmo Pocket 4 has been almost confirmed. Late last month, DJI indirectly confirmed the product's development through a filing with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This is a necessary legal step before an electronic device can be released to the market.
Notably, the FCC documents also reveal a significant improvement: the Osmo Pocket 4's battery life is expected to be improved by approximately...20%Compared to its predecessor, the Osmo Pocket 3, leaked real-life images also show that the product is in its final stages of development. With this information, users can expect a worthwhile upgrade, although they may have to wait longer than initially anticipated.
