DJI has launched the Osmo 360, marking its entry into the 360-degree action camera market. Competing with the GoPro Max 2 and Insta360 X5 (currently priced at $549 on Amazon), the Osmo 360 is part of a series of new products DJI is expected to unveil this summer and fall. Some of these items belong to the Osmo line, and there are hints that DJI might also be ready to update its Mini 4 Pro drone soon.
New Mini 5 Pro Details Emerge
Recently, alleged retail packaging and a high-resolution image of the Mini 5 Pro have been leaked online, providing a sneak peek into its features. First shared by @KietN7650 on X and reportedly from an insider, this image has been deemed trustworthy by leaker Jasper Ellens for now. The details suggest that the Mini 5 Pro will feature a 1-inch CMOS sensor capable of recording 4K videos at 120 FPS, with a 48 mm telephoto mode likely achieved through in-sensor cropping.
Flight Time and Features
The Mini 5 Pro is also expected to have a flight time of 36 minutes, offering a slight 2-minute increase over its predecessor. The image reveals a comprehensive list of key specifications that highlight its advanced capabilities.
However, according to Jasper Ellens, the Mini 5 Pro’s release date has changed. It will no longer debut on August 7, as he initially reported. Considering that DJI did not release a teaser by July 31, it now seems clear that the launch will be delayed beyond Ellens’s earlier timeline.
Upcoming Release Date
In a recent update on DroneXL, Ellens mentioned that the Mini 5 Pro is now slated for a September release. Although he didn’t specify an exact date, he hinted that it could be launched around the same time as the Neo 2. Unfortunately, due to the intensifying trade conflict between China and the United States, it appears that DJI will not be making either drone available in the US market.
