DJI Osmo Pocket 4P: What You Need to Know About the US Launch (and Why It Might Arrive as the Xtra Muse 2 Pro)

0

  

The Xtra Muse 2 Pro will be available in two colours.

DJI is gearing up to unleash its next-generation vlogging powerhouse—the Osmo Pocket 4P—on a global scale. The device has been officially confirmed by the company, creating a wave of excitement among content creators and mobile filmmakers. However, there’s a catch that’s left many US-based fans frustrated: neither the Osmo Pocket 4P nor the recently announced Osmo Pocket 4 will be offered directly in the American market.

But don’t pack away your gimbal dreams just yet. If recent social media activity from a lesser-known brand called Xtra Technology is any indication, the Osmo Pocket 4P may still find its way to US shores—just under a completely different name.

The Curious Case of Xtra Technology and DJI

For those who’ve been following the pocket camera space, this isn’t the first time DJI’s hardware has appeared under an alternative identity. Publicly, DJI has never commented on Xtra Technology, nor on the many other companies it’s allegedly using to bypass direct US sales. But investigative reporting by outlets like The Verge has uncovered a clear pattern: the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and the Xtra Muse (currently priced at $379 on Amazon) are functionally one and the same device.

Now, history appears to be repeating itself. Xtra Technology’s recently teased Muse 2 Pro looks like the spitting image of the unannounced DJI Osmo Pocket 4P. From the dual camera lenses to the fully rotating display and identical gimbal layout, the two vlogging cameras share an uncanny resemblance. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to argue that these are separate products.

What We Know About the Osmo Pocket 4P (and Muse 2 Pro)

While DJI has kept specific specs under wraps, the leaked design and feature set are telling. The Osmo Pocket 4P—and by extension, the Muse 2 Pro—appears to build on the success of the Osmo Pocket 3 with several key upgrades:

  • Dual camera lenses – likely offering a wide-angle primary lens and a telephoto or ultra-wide secondary lens for more creative flexibility.
  • Rotating display – the beloved 2-inch or larger rotatable touchscreen returns for effortless vlogging and low-angle shots.
  • Advanced gimbal system – the same 3-axis mechanical stabilization that made DJI’s Pocket series a go‑to for smooth footage on the move.

One lingering question is color options. Xtra Technology has hinted at multiple finishes for its Muse lineup, but it remains to be seen whether the Osmo Pocket 4P will be available in two colours to match its Xtra counterpart. If the past is any guide, DJI’s version may stick to a more understated palette, while Xtra offers bolder choices.

Late May Release Window? Follow the Giveaway

Xtra Technology hasn’t announced an official release date for the Muse 2 Pro yet. However, eagle-eyed followers have noticed a pattern in the company’s promotional strategy. A recent Muse giveaway campaign—teased on social media—strongly suggests that the new vlogging camera will arrive in late May.

The Instagram post in question (embedded below) gives fans a chance to win what appears to be pre-release hardware, a common tactic used to build hype just weeks before a product launch.

If the giveaway ends mid‑May, a launch in the final week of the month becomes highly plausible. And once the Muse 2 Pro drops, you can expect the exact same device to be quietly shelved as the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P in international markets.

What About the Standard Osmo Pocket 4?

Interestingly, Xtra Technology also appears ready to release a Muse 2 (non‑Pro) alongside the Muse 2 Pro. That model is presumed to be the US version of the Osmo Pocket 4 (the base model, not the 4P). So American buyers may actually have two options: the standard Muse 2 for casual creators and the Muse 2 Pro for those who want the dual‑lens, higher‑end experience.

Bottom Line: Don’t Wait for a US DJI Announcement

DJI has made its position clear: the Osmo Pocket 4P will not carry its own branding in the United States. But thanks to Xtra Technology, you won’t be left out. The Muse 2 Pro is shaping up to be the same gimbal camera you’ve been waiting for, complete with dual lenses, a rotating display, and DJI’s proven stabilization.

Keep an eye on Xtra Technology’s social channels in the coming weeks. If the late May timeline holds, pre-orders could open before summer officially begins. And for anyone who wants to see just how convincing this rebranding strategy is, the current Xtra Muse (the Osmo Pocket 3 equivalent) remains available on Amazon—proof that what’s in a name matters a lot less than what’s in your hand.
