DJI Mini 4 Pro: A Sneak Peek into the Future of DJI Mini Drones
In a world where technology constantly evolves, the realm of drones is no exception. Fresh off the grapevine, new photos of the anticipated DJI Mini 4 Pro have surfaced, courtesy of well-known DJI leaker, Igor Bogdanov, aka Quadro_News. And boy, are we in for a treat!
UPDATE: DJI TEASES “MINI TO THE MAX” FOR RUMORED DJI MINI 4 PRO RELEASE DATE ON SEPTEMBER 25TH
The leaked images present two distinct perspectives. The first gives us a sneak peek at the retail box, setting the stage for what's inside.
The second? A close-up of the new DJI mini-drone itself, revealing some of its captivating details.
One of the minor new features of the DJI Mini 4 Pro is the revamped gimbal protection cover, an essential piece to keep the camera and gimbal protected.

But there's more. Besides the new gimbal cover, we notice the different shape and positioning of the obstacle avoidance sensors. Indeed, these sensors now mirror those found in DJI's more advanced models – the DJI Mavic 3 series and the DJI Air 3.
Design-wise, while much remains consistent with its predecessor, the Mini 4 Pro boasts enhanced stability. How? With the addition of feet on its front legs, ensuring stable take-offs and landings with less chance of the mini-drone tipping over.

But the true marvel might lie in its tech. Rumor has it that the Mini 4 Pro will feature DJI's latest OcuSync 4 technology, recently introduced with the DJI Air 3 two months ago. In our experience, DJI's Ocusync 4 has been incredibly good on the DJI Air 3, with many in the drone community echoing similar sentiments.
