DJI Neo 2 global launch tipped for November 13, starting at $259

DJI looks set to expand its compact drone lineup again, with the Neo 2 now circling for takeoff. Leaks suggest the updated model will bring a slightly higher price tag — but still stay friendly to casual flyers.

The brand has recently hinted at an October 30 launch event under the tagline “Everything Under Control.” Now, leaker billbil-kun says that the event will be limited to China, with the global rollout following on November 13. The short delay likely gives DJI time to clear certifications and stock up for the holiday rush.

The Neo 2’s pricing has also surfaced, showing a small bump over early rumors. The base Fly Solo Bundle—which includes the drone and a single battery—will reportedly start at $259 in the US, £209 in the UK, and €239 in Europe. The Fly More Combo (three batteries, Motion 3 controller, and Goggles N3 adapter) is said to hit $429, while the top-tier Motion Fly More Combo could reach $599.

In return, buyers can expect meaningful upgrades, including 2-axis gimbal stabilization—a step up from the single-axis tilt setup on the previous model—and omnidirectional obstacle avoidance.

Even with the price hike, it’s far cheaper than models like the Mini 4 Pro ($759) while promising far better visuals than the original Neo, and is aimed at vloggers and hobbyists who value portability and affordability above all else.

With billbil-kun’s solid leak record and DJI’s teaser already live, expect full details by the end of the month. The Neo 2 may not just fly—it could easily become this season’s go-to travel drone.

DJI Osmo Pocket 4 chassis leak hints at refreshed dimensions

DJI’s compact camera line looks set for a refresh. Nearly two years after the Osmo Pocket 3 made its debut, leaked images of what’s believed to be the Osmo Pocket 4 have surfaced online. The upcoming model adds new physical controls and slight tweaks to its overall shape and size.

A side-by-side comparison shot of the Osmo Pocket 3 and Pocket 4’s chassis has emerged online, showing the Pocket 4 stands slightly taller and narrower than the Pocket 3. Still, the redesign keeps that signature pocketable feel. This leak lines up with earlier footage from Barcelona, where what looked like a Pocket 4 prototype was spotted filming in public.

The most visible change is a new set of hardware buttons placed below the rotatable touchscreen, replacing the “Osmo” logo found on the Pocket 3. These could serve as shortcuts for recording, focus, or gimbal controls—making one-handed shooting much easier. Combined with reports that production is already underway, the leak suggests a launch could happen before early 2026.

The Osmo Pocket 3 set a high bar back in 2023 with its 1-inch CMOS sensor, 4K/120fps recording, and 2-inch rotatable OLED screen, though its 179g weight and short battery life left room for improvement. Previous rumors point to the Pocket 4 possibly adding a dual-camera setup. If true, it could mean a telephoto or depth camera for added versatility alongside the 1″ main camera.

DJI seems ready to respond with a more ergonomic, creator-friendly design. Whether it lands before the holidays or in early 2026, the Osmo Pocket 4 looks poised to be a small but meaningful upgrade for handheld storytellers everywhere.

DJI Osmo 360 Review: Ready for Adventure Against Stiff Competition

A 360-degree camera displays a photo of an ornate building on its screen, with the same building blurred in the background. The image includes the "PetaPixel Reviews" logo at the bottom right.

The Osmo 360 is something of a reverse situation for DJI. Rather than being a category leader in this respect, the device is more of a response to what competitors like Insta360 have been doing. That widens the scope and scrutiny for what a camera like this could and should be, given the versatility DJI claims it has.
