DJI is preparing to roll out a new smartphone stabilizer, the Osmo Mobile 8. The device briefly surfaced on Amazon in the United States with a temporary price tag of $149 before the product page was taken down.
NotebookCheck noted that the listing came from third-party seller Smart Fly Gear and used an old image of the Osmo Mobile 4—an odd mismatch that points to the absence of official materials and suggests this wasn’t a coordinated reveal.
While the price remains unverified, discussion across the industry has zeroed in on potential upgrades for the Osmo Mobile 8. Rumors indicate that DJI may, for the first time, equip the stabilizer with LiDAR to improve focusing and subject tracking, and that battery life could extend to 12 hours. The gimbal is also expected to work with DJI’s Mic series, a combination that would appeal to bloggers and videographers. The release is reportedly planned for November 2025.
Taken together, the brief listing and the swirl of feature talk make it feel as if launch momentum is building—even if the specifics are still in flux.
