DJI Osmo Pocket 4P Teasers Confirm Dual-Lens Gimbal Camera Ahead Of Expected 2026 Release

DJI has stepped into public view with its Osmo Pocket 4P, ending months of speculation around the compact camera after posting coordinated teasers across its global and Japan X accounts on Friday morning. The posts, published within a minute of each other, mark the first official acknowledgement of the device through Western-facing channels, and point to a product that has largely lived in leaks, filings and controlled previews until now.

The global post carries the line “See More. Tell More. Osmo Pocket 4P, Grand Release Coming Soon,” paired with a render showing a dual-camera setup mounted on a gimbal head. One of the lenses is clearly marked as a 1-inch sensor. The Japanese account used a separate message, “An expanding world, overflowing with stories,” but both posts shared the same #OsmoPocket4P tag and directed users to a regional DJI page describing the device as a “revolutionary pocket-sized gimbal equipped with a dual-camera system” set for 2026.

What stands out in the teaser is not just the confirmation of the name, but the design direction. The imagery aligns closely with earlier leaks and influencer previews from China, which showed a vertical dual-lens arrangement combining a 1-inch main sensor with a secondary telephoto lens mounted on DJI’s familiar Pocket-style gimbal body. According to the same product description, the camera is expected to offer flexible focal length coverage across shooting scenarios, matching earlier reports of a roughly 3x optical telephoto capability.

The naming itself now appears settled. DJI’s own channels refer to the device as Osmo Pocket 4P, putting an end to the uncertainty between “4P” and “4 Pro” that had circulated in industry chatter since early this year. The model has already surfaced in FCC paperwork under PP041 with FCC ID 2ANDR PP041, approved in late December 2025, just before DJI was added to the FCC Covered List the same day.

That regulatory timing is now shaping expectations around availability. The confidentiality period tied to the FCC filing runs into late June 2026, though industry observers expect DJI to move earlier based on its typical launch patterns. Leaked pricing discussions place the base model near $700, positioning it above the standard Pocket 4, which launched earlier this year at $499.

Availability in the United States remains uncertain. The standard Pocket 4 never reached US retail despite its earlier certification, and DJI has previously cited pending FCC authorization. The 4P now sits in an even more complicated position given its certification timing, leaving its path to US shelves unclear at this stage.

The broader context is a shifting compact camera market where competitors are preparing their own dual-lens systems. While DJI has not addressed competition directly, its teaser signals that the Pocket line is moving further into hybrid imaging territory rather than incremental upgrades.

For now, DJI’s message remains measured and deliberate. The company has confirmed the product, shown its core design direction, and pointed toward a 2026 launch window without committing to a precise date. What comes next will likely depend on regulatory timing and regional rollout decisions already shaping the product’s trajectory.
