DJI's second-generation 360-degree action camera has secured regulatory approval in the United States, positioning the company for a spring launch of its upgraded all-around imaging device. The Osmo 360 II cleared Federal Communications Commission certification in December, marking a key milestone ahead of its anticipated commercial release.

The device, manufactured by DJI, passed radiation, frequency stability, and specific absorption rate tests, including limb SAR limits for handheld use. The camera is expected to reach market between March and May 2026, less than a year after its predecessor debuted in July 2025.

Pricing for the standard package is projected between US$499 and US$579, representing a modest increase from the original Osmo 360's US$479.99–US$499.99 launch price. An extended battery package could retail between US$629 and US$729.

Regulatory Filing Details

The FCC registration, completed December 9, 2025, lists the device under identification code 2ANDR-OQ0022512 with model designation OQ002. Testing concluded in November 2025, with final documentation submitted in early December.

The Osmo 360 II incorporates Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) dual-band dual-antenna MIMO connectivity and Bluetooth capability. The device includes electronic labeling functionality to meet regulatory compliance requirements. The certification covers wireless transmission standards necessary for remote control and data transfer operations common in action camera applications.

Battery and Performance Specifications

The camera houses a 2,150mAh battery, a specification that suggests extended operational capacity compared to typical action camera standards. According to technical documentation, the power system enables over 120 minutes of continuous recording in native 8K mode, with extended mode operation exceeding 220 minutes.

These runtime figures represent significant endurance for 360-degree capture devices, which typically consume substantial power processing multiple simultaneous video streams. The battery capacity indicates DJI's focus on addressing field usability concerns that have constrained earlier 360-degree camera adoption.

Market Positioning

The original Osmo 360 launched with two configurations: a standard package at $479.99−$499 and an adventure package priced around $599. The successor's projected pricing maintains competitive positioning against established 360-degree camera manufacturers while incorporating upgraded connectivity and power systems.

The rapid succession between first and second-generation releases—approximately eight to ten months—reflects intensifying competition in the immersive imaging segment. DJI faces rivalry from specialized 360-degree camera makers as well as traditional action camera manufacturers expanding into panoramic capture.
