FULL STORY
======================================================================A 
leaked image seemingly shows the DJI Osmo 360 alongside the Insta360 X4 The 
lens looks bigger than the X4's, suggesting a different sensor size Its 
design has more in common with the GoPro Max, whose successor is delayed 

DJI looks set to muscle in on the 360-degree camera space, if a string of 
rumors and a recently-leaked image are anything to go by. 

Tireless DJI-leaker @hakasushi shared said image of the rumored DJI Osmo 360 
on X (formerly Twitter), in which it sits alongside the Insta360 X4  which is 
the best 360 degree camera currently available  and DJI's Osmo Action 5 Pro 
action camera (see below). 

Based on the image, @hakasushi makes one observation about the rumored Osmo 
360  its lens diameter appears to be wider than the X4's. This likely means 
that the Osmo 360 has a larger image sensor. 

Based on track records, this comes as no surprise. DJI's Osmo Action 5 Pro 
prioritizes sensor size over resolution, with the aim of better low light 
image quality than GoPro Hero 13 Black and Insta360 Ace Pro 2 rivals, among 
other benefits. Bigger lens = bigger sensor! #dji #osmo360 seems to have 
bigger lens diameter (inner circle) than #insta360x4 that has 1/2" sensor. I 
dont think Osmo360 will have 1-inch, but 1/1.3". pic.twitter.com/d1elOSDuAf 
March 2, 2025 Size matters 

Wishful thinking would point to the rumored Osmo 360's sensor being a much 
larger 1-inch size  the same type found in the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 vlogging 
camera. 

However, we wouldn't be surprised if DJI utilizes the same 1/1.3-inch sensor 
as the Action 5 Pro in its potential 360-degree camera  that's still bigger 
than the 1/2-inch type used by the Insta360 X4, even if it's a fair bit 
smaller than a 1-inch sensor. 

The leaked image, if authentic, also confirms that DJI has identified the 
square-like form factor similar to the GoPro Max as preferable over the 
stick-like profile of the Insta360 X4  and that's bad news for GoPro whose 
Max 2 has been hit by numerous delays and is yet to be released. 

Each design is better suited to different users. The square-like design is 
probably better for extreme sports as it's less likely to get in the way, 
while the stick-like factor is arguably better for vlogging. 

DJI is on a roll, and launching its first 360-degree camera would be a 
welcome shake up in a space dominated by Insta360  we expect it to be a 
different prospect to the X4. You might also like Camera rumors for 2025: the
