DJI 's product line is easy to describe: drones and stabilizers. The brand has specialized in these two products, creating incredibly effective solutions with truly amazing quality, and it seems their new product will be geared more towards the consumer than the professional. This is what we gather after seeing images that have appeared on Twitter, where user marlo_melo has shown the box of the supposed Osmo Pocket , a camera with an integrated stabilizing stick that will allow for vibration-free video recording.
A pocket stabilizer
The most striking point of the product is that it is a fairly small camera with a support as a small selfie stick. The idea is that you can carry the product in your pocket and use it anywhere without problems, having the possibility of connecting the camera to the mobile phone to review the videos or enjoy a preview in the same way that the current models offered by the brand in the market (larger, of course).
This new Osmo Pocket could be presented in New York

Nothing is confirmed yet; however, DJI has scheduled an event in New York on November 28th, where they could officially announce the launch of this device. Alongside it, the brand might also announce the arrival of the new Phantom 5 , although nothing is clear about that at the moment.
The smallest Osmo in the family
Currently, DJI offers the Osmo Mobile 2 in its catalog , although it has previously offered other models such as the Osmo+, Osmo, and Osmo Pro. The addition of the Osmo Pocket would introduce a new, much more portable format that would eliminate the problems found in the current models, which are considerably larger and heavier than the new version could offer.
According to leaked images, the device will be compatible with iOS devices from the iPhone 6 onwards, and will also have an official application called DJI MIMO APP available for both Android and iOS (an application that does not currently appear in any of the virtual stores).
How much will the Osmo Pocket cost?
Given that the current Osmo Mobile 2 is priced at €149 (although it can currently be purchased for €119 ), this newer, smaller model with an integrated camera should be priced at around €200. Considering that the product includes an image sensor (and presumably a very high-quality one), we'll see if the brand manages to keep the launch price below €300.
