You’ve probably seen DJI’s stick vlogging cameras everywhere. At trade shows and tech events I’ve attended, it’s often the de facto video camera used by reporters and influencers alike. The Osmo Pocket 3 was easy to use, had sharp focus, potent image stabilization and handled vertical and horizontal video recording with minimal compromises.
That was two years ago, so naturally it’s time for an update. According to our review by James Trew, the Osmo Pocket 4 is the one to beat. It’s still incredibly easy to record with, whether you’re doing talk-to-camera vlogs or ambitious, more cinematic-quality videos. With a new 1-inch sensor, improved framerate capture and an extended battery, it’s better than its predecessor in every way. (Except the $605 price.)
There’s a new dedicated zoom button, and you can assign up to three controls to this button through single, double and triple clicks. There’s also 107GB of internal storage, so you don’t need to add storage — that’s plenty to get started with.
There are some things on our wishlist: we’d love some optical zoom, and the lack of dust- and water-protection might give you pause before more ambitious video shoots.

After a short teaser dropped last year, we’ve finally got a full trailer for the newest attempt to bring Street Fighter to cinemas. The good news, to me, is that it’s going to be silly, fun and high camp. Ken and Ryu are squabbling, and M. Bison is still, bafflingly, a head of an international crime org. And Chun-Li plans to take him down. Jason Momoa is playing Blanka and Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson is portraying Balrog, while mask-toting Orville Peck will don another mask as Vega.
