DJI Osmo Pocket 4P Leaks: Dual-Lens Pro Model Next

The ink isn’t dry on the standard Osmo Pocket 4 announcement and DJI already has another one lined up. Photo Rumors is reporting that a Pocket 4P, the Professional variant, is queued up for a summer launch with a dual-lens setup and real optical zoom.

And our trusted leaker Igor Bogdanov posted this:

And this

The second one is even more interesting because two DJI products appear there

Leaked images show two distinct camera modules on the front of the handle. If the rumors hold, this is the biggest design shift the Pocket line has seen since it first landed.

What the Leaks Show

The headline feature is a dual-camera configuration. Leaked product shots reveal a main wide-angle lens paired with a secondary telephoto lens, and some reports suggest a third ultrawide module could also make the cut.

The standard Pocket 4 that DJI announced on April 16 ships with a single lens and leans on a 2x in-sensor crop for zoom, so adding a dedicated telephoto would be a real optical upgrade, not a software trick.

Photo Rumors cites a rumored 3x to 4x optical zoom range on the secondary lens. That’s the kind of jump that separates casual point-and-shoot video from something vloggers and run-and-gun creators actually want. None of this is confirmed by DJI, and the company has said nothing publicly about the 4P.

The “P” in the name is the working assumption across the rumor mill, standing for Professional. DJI has never used that suffix on a Pocket before, so it’s speculation based on positioning rather than anything official.

Price, Timing, and What Carries Over

Expected launch window is June 2026, with some reports pointing to late May or early summer. The staggered release reportedly exists to keep the 4P from cannibalizing standard Pocket 4 sales, which is the same playbook DJI has run with the Mavic 3 and Mavic 3 Pro splits in the past. Review units are rumored to already be in circulation.

Pricing chatter puts the Pocket 4P at around $700 to start, which would sit roughly $200 above the rumored $499 sticker on the standard Pocket 4. That premium lines up with what a second lens module and a tuned-up imaging pipeline would cost.

The core hardware is expected to carry over from the base model. That means the 1-inch CMOS sensor on a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, 4K recording at up to 240fps, 14 stops of dynamic range, 10-bit D-Log color, ActiveTrack 7.0 subject tracking, and the rotatable touchscreen.

Internal storage sits at around 107 GB on the standard model with 800 MB/s transfer speeds, which eliminates the need for a microSD card. Some of the more aggressive rumors have floated 6K recording on the Pro version, but that one deserves a heavy dose of skepticism until DJI confirms it.

The US Availability Problem

Here’s where the excitement cools off. DJI confirmed that the standard Osmo Pocket 4 will not be available in the United States for now.

No official reason has been given, though the pattern is familiar to anyone who has watched DJI’s US rollout cadence since the import review backlog began. The 4P has no confirmed US release either, and it would be surprising if the Pro version skipped the same roadblocks.

That means American buyers who want the Pocket 4 or 4P are looking at European retailers, grey market resellers, or a flight to a country where DJI still ships freely. For a product category that DJI effectively invented and still dominates, this is an awkward moment for the American creator market.

DroneXL’s Take

Here’s what I actually think, and today I get to say it with a cake in front of me because it happens to be my 43rd birthday. DJI couldn’t stop bombing us with product after product this week if their lives depended on it.

The Pocket 4 drops, the 4P leaks the same day, and somewhere in the pipeline there’s still an Avata 360, and whatever else the leakers haven’t caught yet. The cadence is relentless, and honestly, covering it has been a full-time job on its own.

A dual-lens Pocket with real optical zoom is the upgrade creators have been asking for since the Pocket 2. If DJI nails the image handoff between the two modules, the 4P could eat into the vlogger market that Sony’s ZV line and the Insta360 crowd have been splitting. The $700 price point feels fair if the optical zoom delivers what the leaks suggest.

The US situation is the part I keep coming back to. An American creator reading this article has to plan a workaround just to buy a gimbal camera from the company that defined the category. That’s not a DJI problem. That’s a policy problem, and it keeps punishing the exact audience that built this market in the first place.

And one last thing to the folks in Shenzhen: if you’re reading DroneXL, you owe me a birthday present. I’ve covered every big toy you’ve launched this year with obsessive, meticulous detail. A Pocket 4P with a bow on it would look great in my office next to Capitan Rafa and the baby Neo 2.

Call it a thank-you gift. I’ll even let you pick the color.
