DJI Pocket 4 Reportedly Enters Mass Production: 35% Lighter with Two Mysterious New Buttons

According to a blog post by tech media outlet thenewcamera on October 27, new photos indicate that DJI's next-generation pocket gimbal camera, the Pocket 4, has entered the mass production phase. This development suggests an official release could be just two to three months away.

Information about the Pocket 4 has been gradually revealed through a series of leaks. Clues pointing to the imminent arrival of this highly anticipated product include a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that surfaced in early October, followed by prototype photos from a promotional video shoot in Barcelona, and now, images of the device's shell confirming mass production.

The latest leaked photos of the body shell provide the first opportunity for a side-by-side comparison with its predecessor, the Pocket 3. The data reveals that the Pocket 4 has undergone a significant size reduction, weighing only about 116 grams. This is a substantial 35% decrease from the Pocket 3's 179 grams.

In terms of dimensions, the Pocket 4's body is taller, narrower, and thinner at 145 × 38.3 × 30 mm, giving it a more slender and streamlined appearance. Despite these changes, sources claim the feel of the basic handle remains very familiar, ensuring comfort during prolonged handheld shooting.

The most eye-catching change in this leak is the clear presence of two new physical buttons on the Pocket 4's body. The source of the leak did not disclose the specific function of these buttons, leading to widespread speculation. Analysts suggest they could be for quick zoom control to address shortcomings in the previous model, or they might be customizable shortcut keys to enhance operational efficiency.

Furthermore, judging by the rotating cutout for the screen and the style of the connector on the body shell, it is highly likely that the Pocket 4 will continue to feature the popular 2-inch rotating screen design from the Pocket 3.
