Tech enthusiasts and drone aficionados, take note—new leaks have surfaced online, offering a tantalizing glimpse into DJI’s upcoming releases: the Mavic 4 Pro and Mini 5. The rumors, fueled by images and specifications shared across social media and tech forums, suggest DJI is doubling down on innovation with significant upgrades to its flagship and compact drone lines.
Mavic 4 Pro: A Powerhouse for Pros?
The most detailed leaks yet come from GSM Arena’s sister site, GSMGoTech, which claims the Mavic 4 Pro will feature a 1-inch CMOS sensor capable of shooting 8K video at 60fps—a first for the Mavic series. This leap in imaging technology could position the drone as a go-to tool for professional filmmakers and photographers. The report also highlights omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, a longer 40-minute flight time, and a redesigned remote controller with built-in touchscreen controls.
Notably, the leaks align with recent posts by reliable drone tipster Quadro_News on X (formerly Twitter). One tweet shows a blurry image of a folded drone with a bulkier camera module, while another post teases “AI-powered tracking 2.0,” suggesting improved subject recognition for sports and wildlife shoots.
Mini 5: Tiny Drone, Big Surprises
Meanwhile, DJI’s ultra-portable Mini series appears poised for a refresh. The Mini 5, rumored to retain its sub-250g weight to comply with global drone regulations, might pack a punch with 4K/60fps video and enhanced low-light performance. Quadro_News hints at a new “Cinematic QuickShot” mode, allowing beginners to capture Hollywood-style aerial shots with a single tap.
Perhaps the biggest surprise? A leaked spec sheet mentions O4+ transmission technology, promising smoother live feeds even in urban environments—a common pain point for Mini 3 Pro users.
Availability and Pricing
While DJI remains tight-lipped, industry insiders speculate a late 2025 launch for the Mavic 4 Pro, priced around 699 tag for the Mini 5. For those eager to gear up early, DJI’s existing Fly More Kit remains a solid accessory bundle for current models.
The Bottom Line
If these leaks hold true, DJI is set to redefine the drone market yet again. The Mavic 4 Pro could dominate the prosumer space with its imaging prowess, while the Mini 5 might become the ultimate travel companion for content creators. As always, take rumors with a grain of salt—but with multiple sources corroborating details, the excitement is anything but speculative.
