DJI Osmo 360 review: 8K action cam that beats the competition

DJI’s Osmo 360 arrives as a solid alternative to traditional action cams, pairing two 1‑inch square sensors that deliver native 8K panoramic video. At 6.5 ounces and measuring 2.4 × 3.1 × 1.4 inches, the unit feels robust enough for snowboarding or mountain biking, while its IP68 rating keeps it safe to 10 m underwater. The built‑in 2‑inch touchscreen lets users frame shots on the fly.

The Adventure Combo bundles the camera with extra batteries, a rubber lens protector, a protective pouch and a 1.2‑meter “invisible” selfie stick, while the Standard Combo omits the stick and battery case. DJI also offers an 8‑foot carbon‑fiber extension stick for wider shots. With 105 GB of internal storage and a microSD slot, users can record up to an hour of 8K footage before swapping cards.

Beyond hardware, the Osmo 360 provides RockSteady 3.0 and HorizonSteady stabilization, a SuperNight mode for low‑light scenes, and a suite of shooting modes—including Vortex, Hyperlapse and single‑lens Boost. Editing can be done in DJI’s mobile app, where users can stitch 360 footage or crop to conventional frames. For creators seeking full‑sphere capture without the bulk of a helmet rig, the Osmo 360 delivers a ready‑to‑use solution.
