DJI is getting ready to expand its panoramic camera lineup with a successor that builds on an already solid foundation. Official teasers have confirmed an imminent reveal.
A page on DJI’s Hong Kong website, titled “All Angles. All Epic,” points to an August 13, 2026 launch at 12PM GMT (20:00 Beijing time). That lines up with other signals, including an Instagram teaser suggesting pre-orders or reservations could start as early as August 7. Chinese social media posts and reports have also pointed to early August activity.
One Instagram post shows dynamic 360 footage of mountain biking, dancing, and skiing, ending with a simple “Coming soon.” An earlier teaser takes a top-down view of a square sensor that then pulls back to reveal the camera and a fisheye lens overlay.
DJI hasn’t published full specifications yet. The original Osmo 360 already offered strong capabilities, including 8K/50p and 6K/60p video, 120MP panoramic stills, and solid internal storage. Early indications and regulatory filings suggest some practical upgrades for the sequel, such as a larger 2150mAh battery (up from 1950mAh) for longer runtime and possible support for 8K video at 60fps. Additional refinements like NFC for easier pairing have also been mentioned in Chinese reports.
Availability could be tricky in some markets. Growing restrictions in the United States have already affected other DJI gear, so a U.S. launch at or near the global debut looks less likely. The camera is still expected to roll out in other regions, where it will go head-to-head with rivals in the panoramic space.
The teasers show DJI is confident in refining its 360 formula rather than starting from scratch. As more details come out on August 13, we will find out whether the Osmo 360 II delivers meaningful gains in resolution, battery life, and usability to stay ahead of the competition.
