DJI looks ready to give its tiny handheld camera a meaningful jump in versatility. New leaks hint that the upcoming Osmo Pocket 4 will get a dual-sensor setup, better battery life, and a few design tweaks that could make it an even stronger option for both vloggers and action shooters.
The latest details come from Photorabz, who claim the Pocket 4 will pack two different image sensors, which would be a first for the lineup. The star of the show is said to be a 1-inch, 50 MP main sensor with a variable aperture, seemingly the same one used in the recent Osmo Action 6.
Backing it up is a 1/1.3-inch secondary sensor that reportedly has a more square aspect ratio. That could give creators a cleaner workflow when shooting vertical clips for Instagram Reels or TikTok. The combo suggests DJI is aiming to serve both cinematic footage and quick social-first content without forcing users to pick one lane. For context, the Pocket 3 packs a single 1-inch sensor.
A previous leak also sparked chatter about a dual-display design. But Photorabz has poured some cold water on that excitement, saying the new panel spotted in renders isn’t for framing shots at all. Instead, it may simply show status info or camera settings. Not flashy, but possibly useful.
Battery life is another area that looks set for improvement. The Pocket 4 is rumored to record around 20% longer than the Pocket 3. The exact capacity bump isn’t clear yet, though the new hardware likely demands more power. Still, the overall footprint is said to stay just as small, which is key for a pocket-friendly gimbal camera.
The launch window remains December, but availability could get complicated. DJI is staring down a US FCC ban starting December 23, 2025, which could disrupt distribution plans and push some markets into next year.
If these leaks hold up, the Osmo Pocket 4 will be a confident refinement that keeps the line relevant in a world obsessed with vertical video and portability.
