DJI has officially teased the Osmo Pocket 4P, a high-end evolution of its popular handheld gimbal series. The announcement confirms long-standing rumours of a dual-camera setup, designed to provide creators with dedicated lenses for both wide-angle and portrait shooting without sacrificing the device’s signature portability.

The Osmo Pocket 4P is a slightly larger version of the standard Pocket 4, featuring a sophisticated dual-lens system:
- Primary Sensor: A 1-inch sensor equipped with a wide-angle lens for cinematic landscapes.
- Secondary Sensor: A 3x optical zoom lens tailored for portraits and tighter framing.
While DJI’s official teaser focused on “flexible focal length coverage” and a “new era of mobile cinematography,” leaked specifications suggest a powerhouse device. The 4P is expected to support 4K video at 240 fps, offer 14 stops of dynamic range with 10-bit D-Log M colour, and feature Hasselblad colour tuning. Additionally, it is rumoured to include 128GB of internal storage alongside the standard 3-axis mechanical gimbal, flip-out touchscreen, and updated ActiveTrack stabilization.
Despite the excitement surrounding the hardware, the Osmo Pocket 4P faces a significant barrier in the United States. In February 2026, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) placed DJI on its “covered list,” effectively banning the sale of new DJI models in the U.S. market.

DJI is currently appealing this decision, citing a “lack of due process.” The company has noted that the FCC is seeking public input on the appeal, with a deadline of May 11, 2026. DJI has actively encouraged U.S.-based users to submit comments detailing how their businesses and creative endeavours would be impacted by a permanent ban on the brand’s products.
Given the “Pro” nomenclature and advanced dual-sensor array, the Pocket 4P is expected to carry a significant price premium over the standard model. However, until the legal battle with the FCC reaches a resolution, U.S. creators may find this “revolutionary” gimbal out of reach for the foreseeable future.
