DJI is actively defending its position as king of handheld gimbal cameras this year, releasing not one but two follow-ups to its popular Osmo Pocket 3. The Osmo Pocket 4 already features noticeable improvements compared to its predecessor, offering better image quality, a smoother gimbal, and even easier operation.

The dual-lens DJI Osmo Pocket 4P offers all this and more, providing an even greater upgrade that's specifically targeted toward professionals. With more filming options and a wider dynamic range, the Osmo Pocket 4P remains easy for the average person to pick up and start using, while still offering flexibility for more professional production workflows.

The Osmo Pocket 4P's build is similar to the 4 in many ways. Though slightly larger and heavier, the 4P has the same 1,000-nit rotatable two-inch touchscreen, a USB-C port on the bottom of its handle for file transfer and charging, and a magnetic hot-swap attachment point on the gimbal hinge. It has 103GB of internal storage, slightly less than the 4's 107GB, and can similarly use microSD cards.

Like the Pocket 4, the Pocket 4P also adds two new buttons not found on the Pocket 3: a zoom button and a customizable button (by default, it switches whether the thumbstick controls the camera's zoom or the gimbal's tilt). These buttons are hidden under the touchscreen until it's turned into landscape mode, meaning they're inaccessible while you're shooting in portrait.

Where the Pocket 4P noticeably differs is in its dual-lens build. The Osmo Pocket 4 has a single wide-angle lens (20mm equivalent focal length) with a one-inch sensor.
