There are currently no new DJI products hitting US soil at launch, including the recent DJI Osmo Pocket 4 , which I rate as the best compact vlogging camera.

    I have some good news, however, and that's a record-low price for its predecessor, the Osmo Pocket 3, which is a DJI product you actually can buy, now for just $419 at Adorama (was $499) during Memorial Day the same deal is available at Amazon.

    The Pocket 3 Creator Combo is also on sale for just $539 (was $629) at
    Adorama and Amazon , which also includes a wide-angle lens, DJI Mic 2,
    battery handle, mini tripod and carry case both are stand out deals in the Memorial Day sales .

    Yes, the Pocket 4 is a polished successor, but I described it as a modest upgrade where headline specs are concerned, so you might not be missing out
    on much by opting for the older and readily available Pocket 3 instead.

    And just to give you an idea on how good the current Pocket 3 pricing is one year ago it was hiked from $519 to $799 as uncertainty around DJI product availability grew. At the turn of the year, however, pricing returned and since then it has steadily dropped, now to a new record-low.

The Pocket 3 is now available for a record-low price of $419, which is about $100 less than it's 2023 launch price.

    Price check: $419 at Adorama View Deal DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Creator Combo: was $629 now $539 at Amazon For an extra $120, you can get the Creator Combo, which in addition to the Standard Combo above also includes a wide-angle
    lens, DJI Mic 2, battery handle, mini tripod and carry case. If you're starting out from scratch, I reckon the Creator Combo is your best option as you'll likely want these extras.

    Coleman) Should you still buy the Pocket 3 in 2026? We don't know if the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 will be directly available in the US, nor the recently teased dual-lens Osmo Pocket 4P . The latter 'pro' model adds a 3x telephoto camera to the mix, a formula which is also found in the new Insta360 Luna Ultra , which I am testing ahead of its full unveil.

    We don't know too much about the Pocket 4P and Luna cameras but they will
    cost much more than the Pocket 3.

    I've shared my full review of the Pocket 4, and it is indeed a polished upgrade. For many users, however, the improvements such as built-in memory, better battery life, fill light accessory and 4K 240fps slow motion recording won't be worth the upgrade / spending more for. I've unpacked 7 noteworthy upgrades in my Pocket 4 vs Pocket 3 article .

    So should you still consider the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 today? Absolutely! Besides it being your only DJI option that's currently available, the tiny vlogging camera still packs a 1-inch sensor and shoots crisp 4K video with 3-axis gimbal stabilization, and is supported with a swivel monitor for vertical or horizontal shooting and single push selfies. Yes, it might be over two years old, but the Osmo Pocket 3 remains a top compact vlogging camera, available for much less than the Pocket 4 and almost certainly upcoming dual-lens models.

    You'll get 4K video up to 60fps and up to 120fps slow motion, seamless connectivity with one of DJI's wireless mics for pro audio (remember the Mic
    2 is included in the Creator Combo), that neat swivel touch monitor which cleverly switches between horizontal and vertical recording, plus a gimbal-mounted camera that switches from front to selfie recording at the
    push of a button.

    So while the Pocket 3 has lost its top position to the Pocket 4 in my best vlogging cameras guide , I can still heartily recommend it in this Memorial Day deal.
