DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro Leak Confirms US Launch

DJI has done it again. The company that insists it keeps its secrets locked in a digital vault somehow keeps โ€œaccidentallyโ€ letting them slip out through regulatory filings, leaked photos, and conveniently timed spec drops.

The latest victim of this tradition is the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro, a camera DJI has not announced, teased, or even acknowledged, yet has now politely registered with the US government, as The New Camera reported.

Yes, registered. Certified. Approved. Sitting there in FCC paperwork like itโ€™s waiting for its cue to walk on stage.

And just like clockwork, the leaks are starting to pile up.

DJIโ€™s Favorite Magic Trick: Pretend Surprise

For months, the assumption was simple. DJI would launch the Osmo Pocket 4. One camera. One upgrade path. One article. Easy.

Apparently not.

Buried inside FCC filings is confirmation that DJI didnโ€™t just certify the Osmo Pocket 4. They also certified a completely separate model called the Osmo Pocket 4P, because adding one letter to the name apparently doubles the excitement and, more importantly, the revenue.

The Pro model carries its own FCC ID, 2ANDR PP041, and its own model number, PP 041, which makes it very clear this is not a renamed version or a late stage tweak. This is a second camera.

DJI has pulled this move many times before. The company officially says nothing, leaks nothing, and then, somehow, images, specs, and documents escape into the wild right before launch. Itโ€™s almost impressive how consistently โ€œunintentionalโ€ it all feels.

Two Cameras, Twice the Fun, Twice the Money

The FCC paperwork confirms the Osmo Pocket 4 Pro is cleared for sale in the United States, meaning a global launch is inevitable. The filing also confirms a 1,545 mAh battery, an upgrade over the Pocket 3 and matching whatโ€™s expected from the standard Pocket 4.

But hereโ€™s where things get interesting.

Leaked prototype images, which DJI definitely did not mean to leak at all, pinky promise, show what looks like a dual lens camera system. That alone explains why DJI decided one Pocket 4 simply was not enough.

The rumored camera module closely resembles the DJI Air 3S drone camera layout, suggesting DJI wants to bring multi focal length flexibility into a handheld device. One Pocket for casual creators. One Pocket for people who hear the word โ€œworkflowโ€ and nod seriously.

Was anyone asking for two models? Not really. Will DJI sell two models anyway? Absolutely.

Because if you can sell one camera, why not sell two.

FCC Details and the Not So Secret Timeline

The Osmo Pocket 4 Pro received FCC approval on December 22, 2025. Confidential documents are set to unlock around June 20, 2026, unless DJI asks for an extension, which it sometimes does, sometimes doesnโ€™t, depending on how dramatic it wants the launch to be.

Historically, DJI often launches products before the confidentiality period ends. The paperwork clears the runway. The marketing machine follows shortly after. The leaks show up right on time. Everyone acts surprised.

At this point, the FCC filing is less a hint and more a polite announcement that DJI is just waiting to press the publish button.

DroneXLโ€™s Take

We were mentally prepared for one Osmo Pocket 4. DJI decided to give us two and pretend neither exists.

The Pocket 4 Pro looks like DJI doing what it does best, slicing a product line into tiers and quietly charging extra for the fun stuff. If the dual lens rumors hold up, this Pro model could be a genuinely exciting upgrade, even if the launch strategy feels like a familiar movie weโ€™ve already seen.

Secret filings, โ€œunexpectedโ€ leaks, dramatic silence, and then launch day. DJI doesnโ€™t hide products. It performs the art of pretending to hide them.
