If you are concerned about how new American prices could affect future electronics purchases, look no further than Dji. Company has increased the price From its popular Osmo Pocket 3 camera to $ 799, or $ 280 (54%) more than it cost the launch. The Pocket 3 Creator combo which includes a 2 -wireless microphone and other accessories also increased from $ 700 to $ 950. The recent prices taken by President Trump on Chinese products were “certainly among key considerations” for heavy price bumps, said the company The penis.
The OSMO Pocket 3 was a success of GET Go, thanks to the integrated cardan, a monitoring of a motorized subject and a large 1 inch sensor which offers excellent video quality, even in low light. It is widely loved by content creators for these reasons and is a recommended option in several of the Crima cameras purchase guides – in fact, we bought it for our own journalists.
It is fair to say that the new prices are 100% behind the price increase, despite DJI’s diplomatic wording. The price is the same as when launching in Europe and Canada, which suggests that there are no other technical reasons to increase it. Dji has quietly increased the American price from $ 520 to $ 620 a few months ago, when Trump announced for the first time potential prices on Chinese products. However, other DJI products such as drones have not yet increased a price.
Dji said that the Osmo Pocket 3 is one of the best -selling products in the history of the company and that its popularity “continues to exceed expectations”. However, a large part of this popular was probably due to the original price of $ 520 (in addition to the set of solid camera features), it was a good deal alongside the standard compact cameras like the new Powershot V1 of $ 899 of Canon. At $ 799, the Pocket 3 loses part of its competitive advantage.
It is difficult to find the pocket 3 in the United States (and elsewhere) at all costs at the moment, although Dji says that he is trying to follow the request. In addition to all this, the company is faced with a complete ban on its drone products in the United States in 2026, unless it obtains an exemption from regulators. This will affect the company as well as in consumers, because its drones are widely used in production, emergency services and elsewhere – and it is ahead of competitors in terms of technology. Dji sent a formal letter to five national security agencies (DHS, DOD, FBI, NSA and ODNI) in March to request that all or part of the agencies are starting to assess its products “immediately”.
