Our editorial take on the DJI Osmo 360
DJI has finally thrown its hat into the 360-degree camera ring with the Osmo 360, and it is a formidable first attempt. The company is clearly leveraging its established expertise in imaging and stabilization to directly challenge the market leaders. The standout feature is its impressive combination of large 1-inch sensors and high-resolution 8K video capture. This translates into exceptional image quality that truly shines in difficult lighting conditions, giving it a tangible advantage in raw fidelity over many competitors.
For action sports, travel vlogging, and creative filmmaking, the results are undeniably strong. The stabilization performs as robustly as one would expect from a DJI product, and the ruggedized build is well-suited for adventurous use. However, as a first-generation device in this category, it exhibits some predictable growing pains. The software experience, while capable, lacks some of the polish found in more mature ecosystems, and certain physical design choices feel less refined. While the Osmo 360 gets the core imaging fundamentals right, it enters an arena with incredibly stiff competition, making it a compelling option but not a definitive knockout.
- Excellent image quality, especially in low-light and high-contrast scenes
- High-resolution 8K video capture up to 50fps
- Top-tier image stabilization
- Durable and rugged build quality for action use
- Easy to operate for core functions
- Supported by a strong accessory ecosystem
- Software and mobile app workflow need further refinement
- Some design choices are less polished than established competitors
- Faces very strong competition from brands established in the 360 space

DJI has announced its new Osmo 360 Action Camera, and it looks like they want a piece of the pie that is currently being gobbled up by Insta360.
This update definitely isn't as robust as the one they issued for their Osmo Pocket a few weeks back, but it's great to see DJI continuing to add more features and functionality to their 360-degree all-in-one action camera.
So, did the Osmo Action live up to all the hype? Our answer is a definitive yes. Over treacherous hikes, across burning sands, and against gnarly rapids, the Osmo Action performed exceptionally.
The DJI Osmo 360 is a response to competitors like Insta360, aiming to outdo them with a larger 1/1.1-inch CMOS sensor. Despite its rugged build and versatility for action, travel, and less adventurous pursuits, some design choices and software aspects could be improved for a smoother user experience, especially given the stiff competition.
DJI has announced the company’s first 360-degree action camera designed to compete with the Insta360 X5 and the aging GoPro Max, slightly edging out the X5’s recording capabilities by capturing 8K videos at 50fps instead of 30fps.
It stacks up well against its main rival, Insta360's X5, by offering better video quality in low light or high-contrast situations. It's also easy to use.
DJI has officially launched the Osmo 360, marking the company’s first foray into 360-degree action cameras. While it’s a newcomer to the 360 space, DJI is leaning on its strengths-high-resolution imaging, advanced stabilization, and a well-developed accessory ecosystem.
