DJI has just announced the successor to the Mini 2, and drone enthusiasts have a lot to look forward to because just about everything that could have been improved has been improved.

The new drone, called Mini 3 Pro, features a larger 1/1.3-inch sensor (the Mini 2 has a 1/2.3-inch sensor) that can record 4K video at up to 60 frames per second. The sensor supports HDR, but turning this feature on limits the maximum frame rate to 30 when recording 4K video.

Professional videographers will appreciate the ability to record in a flat color profile for more flexibility during post-processing.

Besides recording videos, the Mini 3 Pro can also capture still pictures, and their maximum resolution is 48 MP. Because the drone’s sensor is paired with an f/1.7 aperture, you can expect great low-light performance both when recording videos and capturing photos.

Of course, even the best image quality isn’t all that useful if your drone can’t stay in the air long enough for you to capture the desired footage. Here, the Mini 3 Pro offers two battery options, and they’re both quite impressive.

With the standard battery, the drone has a flight time of 34 minutes, so you’re already looking at 3 extra minutes compared with the Mini 2. However, you can also get the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus battery upgrade for a flight time of 47 minutes — that’s impressive!

The only downside is that the larger battery makes the total weight of the drone exceed 250 grams, the limit for drone registration set by the FAA and several other transportation agencies around the world.

Without the larger battery, the DJI Mini 3 Pro costs $669, and the kit the battery comes with is priced at $909. You can also pay $340 to add the new DJI RC controller, which supports powerful O3+ video transmission technology.

The Mini 3 Pro can be pre-ordered right now directly from DJI, and it’s expected to ship this summer.

DJI Teases Dual-Camera Osmo Pocket 4P For 2026 Launch

Though most technical claims for the new gimbal come from industry leaks rather than DJI’s own announcement.

dji teases dual-camera osmo pocket 4p for 2026 launch

DJI has teased a dual-camera version of its Osmo Pocket gimbal, confirming that the Osmo Pocket 4P will launch in 2026. The teaser image is the company’s first preview of the device, following months of speculation about a more advanced model in its pocket camera range.

The image shows a slightly larger device than the existing Osmo Pocket 4, with two camera modules mounted above a compact three-axis gimbal. Reports suggest one camera may use a 1-inch sensor paired with a wide-angle lens, while the second may carry a 3x zoom lens — though DJI has not officially confirmed any of these details.

According to leaks circulating ahead of the launch, the Osmo Pocket 4P could support 4K video at up to 240 frames per second, offer 14 stops of dynamic range and include 10-bit D-Log color support. Those features are commonly used by filmmakers who require greater flexibility during color grading and post-production. Reports also point to Hasselblad color tuning, continuing a partnership that has already appeared in some of DJI’s drone cameras, along with up to 128GB of built-in storage that would reduce reliance on external memory cards during longer shoots.

The device is expected to retain features from the existing Osmo Pocket 4, including a three-axis mechanical gimbal, updated ActiveTrack subject tracking and a flip-out touchscreen display. The Osmo Pocket line is aimed at content creators, vloggers, and independent filmmakers seeking compact equipment that can produce usable footage without a larger camera system.

DJI has not provided pricing or a specific launch date beyond the 2026 window. Industry observers expect the Osmo Pocket 4P to cost more than the standard Pocket 4 because of the dual-camera setup and expanded recording capabilities, though no figures have been disclosed. So far, most of the technical detail circulating around the product remains tied to leaks rather than official confirmation.
