TL;DR

• DJI has launched the new Osmo Pocket 4, featuring a 1‑inch CMOS sensor, 4K/240 fps recording, and a rotatable 2‑inch OLED screen with two new physical buttons.
• It includes 107 GB of built‑in storage while retaining the microSD slot, and introduces ActiveTrack 7.0 for better subject following.
• The Osmo Pocket 4 is not currently available in the US due to pending FCC authorization. Meanwhile, DJI has also teased a dual‑lens “Pro” model.

DJI finally took the wraps off the Osmo Pocket 4 vlogging camera, but not its dual‑lens Osmo Pocket 4 “Pro” sibling yet. The new Osmo Pocket 4 can be considered an iterative upgrade over the Pocket 3 from 2023, but it’s still a notable refresh.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 has a new 1‑inch, f/2.0 CMOS sensor with 14 stops of dynamic range, which should improve low‑light performance. It also supports a 10‑bit D‑Log color profile and 4K 240 fps slo‑mo recording.

When you rotate the Pocket 4’s 2‑inch OLED touchscreen from portrait to landscape, you’ll notice two new buttons. The first cycles through 1×, 2×, and 4× zoom, while the second can be customized for preset settings.

Leaks had suggested DJI might drop the microSD card slot, but that proved false. The camera offers 107 GB of internal storage and retains microSD expandability.

A primary highlight of any vlogging camera is stabilization and tracking. On the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 you get ActiveTrack 7.0, which works even at 4× zoom to track subjects such as people (with face‑recognition presets), animals, and vehicles.

Where is the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro?

The dual‑lens Pocket 4 “Pro” was spotted in hands‑on images, but it has not been officially unveiled. DJI shared a teaser on Weibo for the “Osmo Pocket 4P,” confirming its existence and part of its design.

According to the teaser, the Pocket 4P will feature a 1‑inch primary lens and a 3× zoom secondary lens. When it will launch and at what price remain unknown—keep its existence in mind before deciding to purchase the Pocket 4.
