Latest DJI Rumor Articles
DJI News Roundup: Week of May 25 – June 1, 2026
Jun 1, 2026
This was the week DJI fought back with evidence. An independent US cybersecurity firm bought DJI gear off the shelf, tested it for five months, and found nothing; the FCC comment docket crossed 3,000; and the FAA turned 11 World Cup stadiums into no-drone zones with FBI seizure authority. Five stories — in priority order, with our take on each.
DJI News Roundup: Week of May 18 – 24, 2026
May 26, 2026
This was the week the FCC fight stopped being only about DJI. Autel filed a reply that publicly broke ranks, Michigan's 15-bill state-drone-ban package collapsed in committee, and DJI quietly engineered the Air 4 into a sub-250g class that sidesteps the FCC pathway entirely. Six stories — in priority order, with our take on each.
DJI News Roundup: Weeks of May 4 – 17, 2026
May 18, 2026
DJI used two weeks to anoint the Pocket 4P as a cinema product at Cannes rather than a consumer product at its own event, absorb a fourth US-block casualty with Osmo Mobile 8P, watch the FCC fight enter its most adversarial phase, and collect NAB hardware that validates the pivot. Here's what happened — in priority order, with our take on each.
DJI News Roundup: Week of April 27 – May 3, 2026
May 4, 2026
DJI made more news in seven days than most companies make in a quarter. A new product launched (and got blocked from US sale, again). A major event got teased. The FCC fight escalated to a $1.56 billion court filing. And DJI's home market joined the regulatory pile-on. Here's what happened, in priority order, with our take on each.
DJI "Wonders in Your Palm" May 7 Event: Pocket 4 Pro Reveal Expected
May 4, 2026
DJI confirmed a global launch event for May 7, 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Two products are on deck: the Osmo Mobile 8P global rollout (already on sale in China since April 21) and an expected Pocket 4 Pro reveal with dual-lens optics. Here's the complete preview, what we know about each product, and what US buyers should expect given the ongoing FCC ban fight.

DJI Pocket 4: Specs, Price & April 20 Launch
Apr 2, 2026
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 launches April 20, 2026 with a 1-inch sensor, 4K/120fps video, and a 35% weight reduction. Here's everything we know about specs, pricing, and whether it's worth upgrading from the Pocket 3.

Frequently Asked Questions
What DJI products are coming in 2026?
DJI has released the RS 5, Avata 360, Power 1000 Mini, Osmo Pocket 4, Lito 1 + Lito X1, Mic Mini 2, and Osmo Mobile 8P so far in 2026. The Pocket 4 (Apr 16), Lito (Apr 23), Mic Mini 2 (Apr 28), and Osmo Mobile 8P (May 7) all launched globally but are blocked from US sale. DJI then revealed the Osmo Pocket 4 Pro at the Cannes Film Festival on May 14 — also blocked from the US, making it five consecutive direct FCC-ban casualties. Still upcoming: Air 4, Osmo 360 II, Avata 3, and Osmo Action 7 — at various stages of rumor, leak, or FCC confirmation.
When did the DJI Pocket 4 launch and how much does it cost?
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 launched globally on April 16, 2026 at $499 for the base model and $649–$749 for the Creator Combo. US availability is pending FCC authorization. DJI revealed the Osmo Pocket 4 Pro at the Cannes Film Festival on May 14, 2026 — dual cameras (20mm f/2.0 1-inch main + 60mm-equivalent 3× telephoto on a 1/1.5-inch sensor), ActiveTrack 7.0, 10-bit D-Log2. Pre-launch chatter put the base around $700; DJI has not published final pricing and the Pro is also blocked from US sale.
Is the DJI Air 4 confirmed?
Not officially. An early-2026 prototype screenshot leaked first, then in May 2026 the first registry-level sighting surfaced — the Air 4 was caught in a Chinese flight-filing app. The leaks point to a sub-250g body with camera and obstacle-avoidance upgrades over the Air 3S. Release is still expected mid-2026, but DJI has not made an official announcement.
Will DJI products be available in the US in 2026?
DJI products remain available in the US, though some launches face delays due to the Countering CCP Drones Act. The Avata 360, for example, launched globally on March 26 but US Amazon availability was delayed to March 30. See our complete US availability guide at djirumor.com/dji-us-availability for the full breakdown of the ban, product availability, and where to buy.
What is the DJI Lito?
The DJI Lito is a new sub-250g drone product line. Both models — Lito 1 (€339 / £299) and Lito X1 (€419 / £369) — launched globally on April 23, 2026 but are not sold in the US. No FCC authorization has been filed; the Lito is the second direct DJI-ban casualty after the Osmo Pocket 4 (Apr 16).
